Zöe:

If I could've just sat there, forgot everything- and kissed Damien forever, I would've.

But sadly, I couldn't.

We were both red and breathless by the time we pulled away- and there was this strange kind of energy between us.

A good strange kind of energy- may I add.

I opened my mouth, there was so much to say- where should I start? “Damien, I...” And that's when Danny and Clarisse came back in.

I instantly shot a couple feet away from Damien. And smoothed out my hair, crossing my legs underneath me and trying to smile like nothing had happened.

Clarisse came forward with a flask of nectar.

“Here.” She said, sounding the gentlest I've ever heard her, as she poured the glittering liquid over Damien's cuts. They instantly began to heal, and the bruises paled in colour.

She gave the rest of it to him to drink, before turning back to me. “Percy and Annabeth are here.” She shrugged, sounding bored. “Apparently there's some ‘big news’ they need to tell you- and it has to be told in person.” I caught my breath. My brother and Annabeth were here? “I'll take you down to them.” She said, grabbing my arm and pulling me out the room.

I took one last look at the two boys. Danny leaning back on the wall, and Damien sitting by the opposite one. I'd be gone for ten- maybe fifteen minutes, and in that time Danny and Damien would be in the same room. Together. Alone.

Oh gods...

When did my life get so complicated? Fighting hellhounds is easier than dealing with teenage boys...
