My OC is Zoe btw... So yeah! If you haven't read my PercyXReader can you read it now? Or soon? Oh well. This is a collection of one shots!!

You and Zoe were at a park, in Long Island sound.
"(Y/nnnnnnnnnnn)! I'm bored can we do something else?" Zoe said to you. You sighed.
"No Zoe, we have to meet Katie here remember?" She glared at you. Katie was sitting against a tree reading a book.
"Ok Katie what do yo-" Zoe was cut off by an explosion. A large cat like thing jumped out. Zoe realized this and she brought out a black ballpoint pen. It had a snake on it, and when she uncapped it, it turned into a black sword.
"Katie take her to Camp! Send Leo and Per-" she screamed as the Chimaera bit her shoulder.
"GO KATIE!" Katie dragged your wrist with her as you two both ran. You were in shock and was speechless.
"Percy, Leo! Zoe needs your help go!" Two black haired boys heads' popped up at their names. One had sea green eyes like Zoe, and the other was Latino and had brown eyes. Determination set in there faces, they ran off into the forest.
"(Y/n), are you hurt? Did the chimaera get you?" You shook your head, as two bodies came into sight. It was a tan black haired girl, and a blonde haired boy with brown eyes.
"Lily, Logan, meet (Y/n)." Katie told them. You shook hands with them.
"Welcome to camp half blood nice to meet you..." Logan's worlds trailed off as his eyes grew wide.
"Katie, there back... And Zoe isn't in the best condition..." You turned around and your eyes widened at the sight. Zoe was in terrible condition. She had claw marks everywhere, and there was a deep gash in her abdomen. Katie's eyes teared up.
"Zoe you heroic bastard." She mumbled to herself. She ran for the infirmary. You and the two demigods behind you followed, and saw Zoe in a cot.

~two hour time skip~

    The demigods were still in the infirmary, and Will had done all he can, well, if she wakes up. Key word: if. Leo, the Latino, was sitting in a chair next to the cot and holding Zoe's hand. Katie was on the floor watching, with Logan by her side. (In a friendly way) lily was against a wall. Percy had left earlier. Then there was a loud bang.
"WHAT THE FRICK HAPPENED TO MY SISTER!?" A guy with shaggy black haired boy barged into the infirmary.
"Nico, let me ex-" Katie was cut off.
"EXPLAIN!? YEAH YOU BETTER FREAKING EXPLAIN THAT MY SISTER MIGHT BE DEAD BY TOMORROW!!!" Nico yelled.
"Nico. You know the heroic bastard she is, she let us escape and fought the chimaera." Nico's shoulders slumped and he glanced at you. You caught him looking at you and his cheeks were a light shade of pink. So were yours. You walked over to him.
"Hi, I'm (y/n) (l/n)." You held out your hand to shake.
"Nico Di Angelo son of hades." He shook your hand. He seemed sad, and he sat down in the chair opposite from Leo. He looked at Zoe's unmoving face. Then there was the slightest movement. Leo saw this and shook her shoulders.
"ZOE I KNOW YOUR AWAKE NOW WAKE UP!" She hissed in pain.
"Leo! My damn shoulder hurts!" She pried her eyes open and Leo helped her sit up. Nico's eyes brightened at the sight of this.
"Zoe!" He engulfed her in a hug. Zoe laughed, then cringed, but smiled. Nico smiled back.
Katie told me that ever since Zoe arrived at camp, Nico's been happier. He still rarely smiles, but he does it for Zoe.
Brother and sister were still in a hug, until Leo stepped in.
"Zoe I want my share!" He gave her a pouty face. She rolled her eyes, and signaled him to sit next to her. He did, and she kissed him on the cheek, giving him a hug.
"That's all you get. Now can someone help me up? I want to stand." Leo and Nico helped her up, and Leo caught me staring at Nico. Leo winked towards Nico's direction, looking at you. You blushed and Nico saw this. He blushed and Leo and Zoe snickered. Zoe tapped Leo's shoulder in a pattern. He got this, and did the same thing back. Morse code? Maybe...
"Hey Katie, Logan, lily. Can you show (y/n) around camp?" Zoe asked. They nodded and showed you around.

~time skip to campfire~

   You were squished in between Lily and Nico, and on the log beside Nico, was Zoe, Leo, and Jason. Katie and Logan were on a log together, and Uma Thurman by Fallout boy was on. Katie was singing, Zoe was quietly mumbling it, and Nico looked like he was struggling to hold it back.
"Come on Nico, you know you want to sing it." I coo. He looks over at you, and rolls his eyes.
"Never, (y/n)!" Then the song ended. Nico's shoulders hunched in relief. Then 21 guns by green day came on.
"Why Apollo!? Why!?" Nico looked up at the sky. Then he looked up at your head.
"Holy Hades..." He whispered.
"(Y/n) (L/n), daughter of Apollo!" Chiron boomed. The campers bowed, except Zoe, unless she wants to re-open that gash in her stomach. When she tried, she cringed and used her hands instead. You smiled at her, and just wanted to shrink back into the crowd. Then most people left. Except for Zoe, Leo, and Nico.
"Hey Leo I'll meet you at Cabin 13 can you bring Zoe over?" Nico asked them. They nodded and started to leave.
"Hey (Y/n) do you want to hang out sometime?" He blushed light pink and averted his gaze from yours.
"Sure Nico! I'd love to!" You smiled at him. He gave you a small crooked smile, then he left. Leaving you alone. You smiled to yourself and started to head to the Apollo cabin where lily was waiting for you.
