Kayleigh grew flowers in my field. She laughed and smiled at the yellow buttercups beside the ones I had grown.

"You're getting better at this," I gave her a double high-five as I crouched down beside her. "When you're older you will be better than me, I'm sure."

I lifted her up into my arms and she curled up in my arms. It had gotten late and tomorrow there would be a rush of the summer-time campers coming back for a few months.

"It's late, I think it's time for sleep," I whispered in her ear, trying to not disturb her if she had already fallen asleep. A small 'mhmm' was all I got in return.

I shoved the door of cabin eleven open with my foot and squeezed inside. The few people talking inside hushed when they saw a sleeping Kayleigh. She's the youngest camper in the cabin right now.

Kayleigh is untangled from me as I tuck her into what used to be my bed. There isn't much else I can do around camp so I get comfortable on the floor beside the bed with a pillow and blanket.

I hadn't realized how exhausted I'd been until the darkness took over me in a matter of minutes.

I woke up before the sun and everyone else in the Hermes cabin was still fast asleep. I had to sneak out so I wouldn't get booed at for waking everyone up.

The moon was still bright even as it began to set. It made me think of the Hunters, of Thalia, just as the stars brought a reminder of Zoe. Her constellation wasn't out tonight which was a shame. I'm not a big fan of keeping track of the sky, but every night I keep an eye out for the Huntress constellation.

There isn't much to do at camp right now without waking everyone up. I walked around, looking at places that would be busy with campers in mere hours. A loud snoring told me that the new hellhound at camp, Ms O'Leary, was still fast asleep.

I found myself back at the field that I spend hours in these days. Flowers grow around me as I lay down and stare at the sky. My friends would be coming home again and I couldn't wait. I closed my eyes as the moon shined down on me.
