(Sophie POV)

When It was finally lunch, I breathed a sigh of relief. "Wow, that was just...wow. didn't know humans thought that dinosaurs went extinct millions of years ago." Fitz laughed. "Keep it down Fitz!" I scolded. Kid's heads were turned to them, but she had a feeling that it wasn't because of what he said. "You don't say that stuff out loud." 

"Sorry." Fitz apologized. 

"Now, lets eat! My favorite class of the day! I can be the teacher!" Keefe squealed. We all sighed.

"Are you enjoying your time here?" Percy asked, spooning a big helping of food into his mouth. Strangely, all of his food was blue. "Yes, it's really nice. Especially after finding some friends." I smiled at him. He returned it. We finished the rest of our lunch, making small talk, getting to know each other better. Of course, they probably never were really going to 'know' us. 

(Percy POV)

Sophie and her friends seem nice. I just can't help that I feel like their different. I tell Annabeth, and she thinks that it's just me. I think she's right, but I just have a feeling...
