Artemis POV
After we finally finished with all the shit in the training room, Annabeth gave me a tour of the place. It had the training room, a lounge room, a kitchen, a tech room, a conference room, and a dorm per person, each one equipped with a bathroom. After the grand tour, we has all gathered in the lounge room. Even Claire had been dragged in by Annabeth, who had hunted her down and forced her to hang out with us.
"So, we should all talk about ourselves to get to know each other!" Annabeth declares.
Josh rolls his eyes. "We already know each other, stupid."
Annabeth sighs impatiently. "I meant so Artemis can get to know us. And besides, we don't really know each other that well." She points out.
Josh snorts. "Fine."
Annabeth smiles victoriously. "So, who wants to go first?" No one volunteers so Annabeth scans her teammates for a victim. "Claire! How about you?"
Claire looks up from her phone, disgusted and scowling. "I did not agree to be a part of this. I refuse to take part in your stupid group chat." She returns her attention to her phone.
Annabeth bits her lip. "Well how about you Tyler?" She smiles again, hopefully.
Tyler's face goes rage red with a deep blush. "T-there's not much to know about m-me." He stutters.
Will jumps onto to the couch Tyler is on and throws an arm around him. "Oh come on, Ty! We know almost nothing about you! There must be something worth telling!"
"W-well what do you want to know?" He asks, looking scared and gaured.
Annabeth smiles. "Anything! Your family, your friends, your hopes, your dreams, your fears-"
"Your dinner plans!" Will interrupts, wiggling his eyebrows.
Tyler gives a small, embarrassed, giggle.
"Come on man, spill! Tell us all your deep, dark secrets!" Will demands.
Tyler looks terrified. "I-I... um- I mean..." He stutters helplessly.
Claire snorts. "Well this was a fail."
"No shit." Josh agrees.
"How about truth or dare?" I offer, trying to ease some of the tension off of Tyler.
Annabeth squeals. "YES!"
Claire huffs, Josh rolls his eyes, Will grins and shrugs, and Tyler bites his lip.
Annabeth smiles again. "I'm going to take that as everyone agreeing. I'll go first! Claire! Truth or dare?" She asks.
Claire scowls and assesses her options. "Truth."
Annabeth thinks for a moment. "What's your biggest fear?"
Claire glares at the question but surprisingly answers. "Turning into what my father was." She doesn't explain her answer, just leaves it at that.
"Now you ask someone truth or dare!" Annabeth prompts.
Claire sighs and her eyes surf the room lazily, assessing her options. "Oh I don't know, Josh. Truth or dare?"
Josh grins wickedly. "Dare, of course."
For the fist time ever, I watch a smile curl across Claire's face. It makes her look beautiful and reminds me of something I can't put a finger on. I try to pinpoint the memory but just then Claire gives her dare, which distracts me
