Brandon doesn't leave my side all day. Well, until it's dinner time at least. 

"Brandonnnnnnn! Hurry upppppppppppp!" Percy whines from the doorway. 

"What's that all about?" I ask, but based on the look Brandon is wearing, he doesn't know either. He shrugs.

"I don't know either. But I'm not leaving." He says, eyes not leaving mine. So Percy barges in. 

"Brando- Oh sorry." He says quickly.

"Why were you calling me?" Brandon changes the subject.

"I just wanted to get to know my sisters.....friend." He smirks at me.

"Um, someone has to stay with Emily though." Brandon protests. 

"That's what doctors are for! But Will isn't on shift right now, so if you want someone you trust here, Annabeth can stay with her." Percy suggests.

"But-" He starts, but I interrupt.

"Annabeth is cool. She's scary, and we just met, but I would trust her with my life." I shoot Brandon a look that says "Just go or he'll never leave." Brandon rolls his eyes but sighs in defeat.

"Yay! I'll go get Annabeth! Be right back." Percy rushes out to get Annabeth.

"What's your problem with Percy?" I ask. Without sarcasm, for those who were wondering. 

"Nothing I just.....I'm not used to this......lifestyle...yet." he admits.

"Neither am I, to be honest. But we have actual siblings like us now. Our whole lives finally make sense. Well yours at least. I don't even know who my real mom is apparently. Anyways, most importantly, we finally have a purpose, something, or someone, worth living for." I comfort him.

"I already have someone worth living for." He says, looking into my eyes again. It looks like he's looking into my soul. So of course, Percy has to crash through the door right then.

"Hi again. Sorry about ruining your second moment. Urgent matters I have with your boyfriend so, here's Annabeth." Annabeth walk in just as Percy drags Brandon out of the room.

"He's enthusiastic today." I observe.

"Tell me about it. He's been dragging me around all day. Annabeth do this, Annabeth do that. I'm normally the one bossing him around. I don't know what he's planning, but he's reminding me of Aphrodite when she finds 2 people she ships. Going crazy making plans for no reason. Him and Jason both." She laughs. I laugh nervously.

"Do you know who it is he's shipping?" I ask. She shrugs.

"He does this all the time, don't worry." Annabeth reassures me. I nod. We talk for a while until it's curfew.

"Well, I have to go now, but I think Kayla and Will are on night shift. Kayla's nice, you two will like each other. Goodnight." She gives me a hug before she leaves. I'm alone for a few minutes before a girl with short ginger hair with a few strands dyed bright green and blue bell eyes. She has freckles covering her skin. 

"Hi! I'm Kayla, Will's half sister! You must be Emily. Well, you got lucky. You're the only patient in the infirmary tonight!" She says excitedly. She looks about 12. Great. My doctor is 2 years younger than me.

"Cool. So you're a daughter of Apollo right? Do you sing?" I ask.

"I am and I do! I heard you singing at the campfire last night by the way! You're better than me!"She compliments.

"Thanks." I say.

"No problem." She replies, sitting down in the chair beside me. We talk for a while before I start to drift off to sleep.
