Rachel's POV:

Rachel had no problem with being called Reyna's girlfriend, in fact she longed for it to happen again. Rachel thought that the was Reyna defended and protected her was adorable- even though she can perfectly protect herself.

And after they got kicked out if the cafe-well she loved every minute of it. Rachel just couldn't describe the fun and nerve wrecking type of excitement she had. So to calm her self down- it was either that or explode- Reyna and Rachel went to Forever 21, just for a few minutes. As she had dragged Reyna in- by the hand to the band/other shirt section, Reyna made no protest.

As soon as Rachel stopped, Reyna looked at her. "Reyna want. Reyna wants them, my precious band shirt!" She joked, while stroking a Panic! At The Disco shirt. Rachel laughed at her weirdness, then looked at the price. "Oh wait, sorry Rey-Rey- I'm broke." Rachel said, giving a sigh to add to the dramatic effect. "Well, um we can still try on the outfits, and look awesome doing it?" Reyna said, smiling genuinely.

"We can- can't we? Well, come on Rey-Rey! Grab some clothes and lets go!" Rachel said, more excited by the minute.

Rachel grabbed a lot of good shirts, some pants, leggings, a pair of short shorts, sweaters, tank tops, and a few long sleeved shirts because it was cold in the store.

Rachel walked to the entrance to the dressing room and looked for Reyna. Reyna grabbed shirts, sweaters, jeans, really anything that was her size, and pants- even a few dresses before meeting Rachel in the waiting room entrance. "Time to be creative." Rachel said, smirking slightly.Both girls got the cards for the dressing room and quickly ran to the dressing rooms. Neither of the girls had been this excited to try on clothes for years! Rachel quickly threw off her clothes, setting it on a shelf/bench that was in the corner.

"Okay outfit number one!" Rachel said to herself- picking out a black tank top, blue ripped jeans, and a brown and white designed sweater.

"You ready?" Reyna called from her dressing room next to Rachel's. "Yeah!" Rachel replied, kind of curious of what Reyna chose.

Both girls unlocked the dressing room doors before coming out and instantly looking at each other. Rachel looked at Reyna in amazement- she was wearing a pair of mint green short shorts, a long sleeved (White) t-shirt, she also had a jean vest, and she had even let her hair down. Her hair was very wavy and Rachel admitted to herself that it looked really good on Reyna. "That outfit is amazing!" She said truthfully, Reyna blushed- her hair falling into her face a bit.

Reyna put the hair behind her ear before complimenting Rachel, "Yours do to, the sweater really pulls it together." She complimented- Rachel could feel herself blush, "Another outfit?" Reyna asked, Rachel nodded quickly.

They rushed to their dressing rooms, and put the clothes they had next to them once they were off. 'What to pick...' Rachel thought, she eventually picked a pair of(White, short)overalls,a blue shirt that went to her elbows, and she tightened her ponytail that controlled her hair somewhat.

"I'm ready." Reyna said to Rachel, "Same here." Rachel replied.

Both girls got out of their dressing rooms again and looked in each others direction. Both girls laughed. Rachel saw that Reyna was wearing the same outfit as here, "We have such good fashion sense!" She joked, making Reyna laugh even more."Hit a pose!" Reyna said randomly, pointing toward Rachel. Rachel smiled and put the back of her hands to her chin, trying to look innocent. Reyna rolled her eyes, "stop trying to look innocent. We all know you are a little prankster!" Reyna said, Rachel chuckled.

"Maybe, and maybe not. You'll never know." Rachel said, Reyna smiled. "Oh so mysterious!" Reyna commented sarcastically. "I know, I'm such a good actor!" Rachel replied, looking at Reyna. Reyna looked back, it went like this for a while. To Rachel it was normal, but to the outsiders they saw 2 girls who had been oblivious to their feelings, and staring into each others eyes like no one was watching, which they respected them for.

"One last outfit then we leave." Reyna said, "Why?" Rachel asked confused. "All this mixing outfits that we can't afford because we are broke is just making me sad." Reyna admitted, "Wait- of course I am such an idiot!" Rachel said, Reyna looked at her curiously.

"And why are you an idiot?" Reyna asked confused, "My dad- well he gave me a bunch of money in case I needed something while I was 'Summer Camp' and he wasn't there. Which of course he wouldn't be here. So, let's use it because gods knows I shall never use the money from him for really anything." Rachel said, Reyna looked at her hesitantly. "Really? It's your money." Reyna said, Rachel looked at her. 

"It's fine. I have to much anyways." She said, Reyna slowly smiled. "Okay." She said, Rachel smiled back. "One more outfit though, we still have other stores to go to." Rachel said, Reyna nodded- looking like a kid in a candy store.

The girls quickly went to the dressing rooms, "Wait are we buying the outfit we both had on a few minutes ago?" Rachel asked her, "Sure I guess, it isn't a bad outfit." Reyna said, "True." Rachel replied.

The girls changed into another outfit. Rachel picked out a dress with a midnight blue top half, a forest green bottom half and the waist was the border- represented by a dark leather belt that was weaved like a braid. Rachel smiled as she pulled her hair out of the pony tail. Although it kept it out of her face, it was rather very uncomfortable.

"I'm ready!" Rachel said to Reyna, "Just finished." Reyna replied. Both girls unlocked the dressing room doors and looked at each others outfits for the last time. Reyna was wearing a super man sleeveless shirt and red jeans."Nice super hero." Rachel said, "Nice colors." Reyna said back. "Thanks." Rachel said, "Well we better go pay for these and get dressed in our clothes." Reyna said, Rachel nodded.

The girls quickly changed, grabbing the outfits they had chosen and went to the cashier. Rachel pulled out her wallet. It had no cash, only a single credit card and a lot of pictures.

Rachel handed the card to the cashier and she swiped it. "Thank you Miss Dare." She said, Rachel nodded and they got their clothes put in bags. The girls grabbed the bags and headed out of the store. "That was kind of fun. I never thought I would say that about shopping." Reyna said once they had left.

"It's okay. I didn't think I would like shopping either." Rachel replied honestly. "Another thing we have in common' Rachel thought to herself. "So were to next?" She asked Reyna.Reyna looked at the stores around her, "Um,how about-" But Reyna was interrupted by the alarm Rachel set for 1:10 every morning.

"We should be heading back. It's 1:12." Rachel said sadly, Reyna sighed. "Fine. But maybe we can return one day. It is a truly good place to shop." Reyna said, "Yeah, we are definitely coming back soon!" Rachel said, 'why am I sounding so unlike myself!' Rachel thought to herself.Trying to calm herself down because it was almost like Reyna wanted to do this again- was she considering this a date?

Rachel kind of hoped so, she actually liked Reyna. She wasn't like the other girls from her school and she didn't really get along with the girls at camp either. Well- except Annabeth, Piper, and maybe Hazel. it was nice to hang around her- it made her feel like her face would rip in half from smiling. 

"Look there's a taxi! Taxi!" Reyna shouted, the taxi stopped. And Reyna grabbed Rachel's hand- dragging her into the taxi. "Where to madams?" The driver said, Reyna told him a location somewhat close to Camp- well the woods of camp. 

The taxi ride was full of chatter from the girls, not like the ride before. They were just talking about anything really. (Mostly about favorite colors, places, seasons, etc)The taxi stopped at the woods, and the girls got out. Rachel payed for the taxi and it drove away.

The girls quickly jogged through the woods straight to camp. Rachel was breathing a little heavier than usual but not much. Reyna- looked fine. "Well, I'll see you later I guess." Reyna said, "Yeah. Bye." Rachel said, kind of sad that they weren't spending more time together. Reyna walked to the Hades cabin while Rachel ran to her cave.

She was smiling even if she was a bit sad, it's better to have a few hours than nothing at all right? She had forgotten Will was still there-until he had appeared out of 'no where'. "Hey Rachel, how'd the daaaaaate go?" He asked her as soon as she entered. Rachel screamed and quickly regathered herself.

Will chuckled, and Rachel began to answer his question. "Well, we got kicked out of the coffee shop after getting weird and screaming the song lyrics.So, we went to Forever 21 and bought some outfits." Rachel explained, "Oh okay, I guess I don't have to ask what is in the bag then." Will replied, "Wait, anything else happen?" Will asked her.

Rachel looked at Will, "How'd you know something else happened?" She asked him, "I didn't know. I asked! Now spill." He said, it was kind of nice that Will was acting like a personal Aphrodite camper for her. "Well, a girl may have flirted with me. And Reyna may or may not have defended my by saying that I was her girlfriend. And I may or may not have played along and called her babe. And she may or may not have said Love you in front of the girl." Rachel admitted, her face turning red.

"Aw. Wait till I tell Nico!" Will said, Rachel's eyes widened. "No! It is kind of private. A-and I don't want people to know if she didn't mean it." Rachel admitted. Will looked at Rachel, "Okay." He said. "Thanks." Rachel replied, "No problem." He answered, after a few minutes of silence Will left. And Rachel began thinking about the day.  

 'What if she did mean it?' Rachel asked herself, 'No! She probably is dating someone anyway. Plus, why would she like me?'
