Heyo, my name is Levi Martin and I fudged up. Big time.

It all started six years ago when I was eighteen. 

---

I was walking into the Hermes cabin, Escuarted by Travis my half brother. Cool, a whole cabin with people like me.

"Sooo... What do you guys do here for fun?" I asked. 

"Well, we do lots and lots of prank type of things. Oh, we throw parties every once and a while." Travis said.

"In fact we have one coming up soon, for Percy and Annabeth." Travis number two said.

"Wait... who are you?" I ask confused on the sudden look alike.

"I'm Conner. Travis's biological brother, not half  and- "

"We are not Twins." they both said at the same time. Okay...

"I know Annabeth. She's really nice to me. I may or may not have a crush on her."

They shook their heads. "Don't go for her," Travis said.

"Why?"

"She has a boyfriend. Percy, the dude who she's having the party with." Conner said. I sighed and acted like I let it go. 

"Come on, let's go put soap on Chiron's floor so he falls," I say. 

They smile. "Oh yeah."

"Hey, Annabeth," I call out to her as I see her reading on a bench near the lake. She looks up and smiles. See, I'm a likable person.

"Hey, I didn't see you there Levi."

"What are you doing?"

"I'm reading, um," she looks at the cover. "I Am Number Four. It's a good book, it has Adventure, Friendship, Action, Fantasy and so many other genres in one." 

"Sounds like a good book. Have you read the hunger games?"

She nodded. "I feel like it shows female power. Like how Katniss stood up for her sister and was in the hunger games twice, and survived."

"Yeah so... I like this girl and I don't know how to tell her that I do."

"Ooh, who is it?" she squealed. She looked so cute

"I can't say... but what should I do?"

"Maybe do something big, flowers, maybe a sign saying that you like her, look nice or at least decently nice when you do. You'll need to wow her." She said. I nodded taking everything in. I got up and shook some sand off my pants.

"Thanks.  I'll try my best." I say. "I best wow her right?" She nodded and opened her book. I turned and walked away. Time to get to work.

-----

It was finally time for the party. Whoever her so-called boyfriend is, isn't even here. Hasn't been here all week, wouldn't be surprised if he weren't here today. Then I can sweep a heartbroken Annabeth off her feet and into my arms.

"You ready for the party?" Travis asked.

I nodded putting on a button up green shirt with blue jeans. I was going to go with a suit and tie but I mean I can always wear that underneath my clothes, am I right?

"I can't wait for my first Camp party."

Travis nodded and patted my back. "These parties are great. Try not to screw it up." Before I could ask what he meant he walked off laughing. I shrugged and assumed he had done another prank.
