Percy and Annabeth left 15 minutes ago, therefore I'm really bored. I've ordered 3 smoothies, and I've been working on some metalwork.

I started thinking about some of the Jason vs. Percy battles on the Argo. They all went the same.

Jason was jealous. Percy got insulted. They got into a sword battle. And Percy always won.

Although I would never say it out loud, Percy was the most powerful, dangerous demigod to ever live.

He had this aura about him when you first met him- He was unpredictable unless you really knew him. He would protect his home, his family, his friends. He would jump into Tartarus for them. Percy had achieved much more than Jason.

"Hey," Kelsey sat down across from me.

"Hey, what's up?" I asked.

"Olympus," she said. I grinned- and then frowned. Wait, she's not a demigod.

"Olympus?" I asked.

"You're gonna think I'm crazy," she said.

"That is crazy..." I say, mostly to myself.

"I've been seeing... Odd things. Yesterday I saw a horse with wings- flying through the sky..." She said.

"A Pegasus." I say.

She looked confused. "Huh?"

"The Pegasus from Greek-"

"Mythology." She said. "How'd you know that?"

Yeah, I never paid attention in class. I guess when I knew that it freaked her out.

"I..." I didn't want to tell her...

"And I saw this.... Dragon thing..."

"A drakon? Was it big?" I asked.

"Drakon?" She said. "Leo-"

"Look. I've been keeping a secret from you..." I say. "It's probably hard to believe.. But all this stuff you're seeing? It's not you dreaming or hallucinating. Nobody else sees it because they can't see through the mist."

"The mist?" She asked.

"The magical veil that covers mortals eyes," I said. "Some mortals, like Rachel Elizabeth Dare... She can see the mist."

"She was at Goode for freshman year, right? Then she transferred?" Asked Kelsey. "I guess you don't know her... She left before you guys came."

"Oh you have no idea," I grin. "Look, I can't explain it like Chiron, but I'll tell you this. I'm a demigod. And so is Annabeth, Percy, Jason, Piper, Clarisse, and Nico. Nico's a freshman this year. And some more new kids- Reyna, Octavian, and Thalia. They're all demigods."

"Wha?" She asked.

"Follow me," I say, and we leave the café and go to the gas station across the street where there is a car wash.

It was Wednesday still. I wished it was Thursday, to be honest. I was really happy to just be with Kelsey. I turned on the spray nozzle after depositing a dollar in change. I tossed a coin in.

"O' Iris, Goddess of the Rainbow, do you accept your offering?" I said.

Kelsey stared at me like I was psycho. I shrugged at her.

"Show me Chiron, at Camp Half-Blood," I say.

The water shimmered, and there was the big house porch.

"Hello Leo and-" Chiron stopped short. "Leo, who is this?"

"This is my... Er, girlfriend Kelsey," my face was burning up it felt like. "Um, she can see through the mist. I told her that she's not psycho but I don't know how to explain the whole.. Demigod, God, monster, most thing."

Chiron nodded, and started explaining it how he did to all new campers. It was weird that he was always patient, and never got tired of repeating the same things.

I zoned out. I saw him explain, her ask  questions, him answer them, etc. I had to put in an extra $6! That's 35 minutes of standing in a car wash stall!Thank the gods it wasn't busy. And also thank the gods no cops rode by.

I got on my iPhone and called Percy.

He answered. "Hello?"

"Sup, Perce," I said.

"What ya want?" Percy asked.

"Do I need to have a reason to call my best friend and band mate?" I ask.

"Yes." Percy said. "You're Leo."

"And you're absolutely right," I grin. "I'm bored out of my mind."

"classic Leo. You get bored too easy bro!" He sighed.

"Sorry," I said. "I'm ADHD."

"Dude, you're beyond ADHD." Laughed Percy.

"Yeah, whatever," I laugh. "At least I don't sleep with a stuffed Nemo."

"No?" Percy said. "You sleep with a stuffed Thor Hammer."

I blushed. "Shut it."

"Same to you," I could tell he was smirking.

Finally, Kelsey put her hand through the mist and it cut off.

"That was nice. eh?" I asked.

"You are a dyslexic, AHDH son of Hephaestus and you didn't tell me?" She demanded. "That's why you're going with your hands."

"Yeah...?" I asked slowly.

She smacked me. She went again but I grabbed her hands and pulled her into a kiss. She pushed me against the wall, and then next thing I knew, we were soaking wet.

And not in a good way, either.

The car wash was on, and at the end there stood Percy and Annabeth.

"Found you." Percy laughed.

I took off my soaking wet shirt, put it in a ball, and threw it at Percy's chest. It hit him, and a small pool of water formed around it. The thing peeled off.

xxxXXXxxx

"So that whole time we were on the phone, you found out which gas station and planned the whole thing?" I demanded.

"Pretty much, yeah," Annabeth laughed. "We got it on video too."

"What?" I demanded. *the next lines I'm not writing down for language reasons*

The movie was good. It was also WOW. I figured out real quick I did not want that to happen to Piper and I.

As I walked out of the theatre, Piper had to go to the bathroom, so I stood in the lobby of CineFlixs. Suddenly my 3 mortal friends from JV basketball, Kade, Chance, and Jance walked in.

-Jance has dirty-blonde hair and light blue eyes.

-Chance has brown hair and brown eyes.

-Kade has dirty blonde hair and hazel eyes.

"Hey bro," I throw up my hand. After  bro hugs, we started talking about Summer. I made up an amazing story- I went to the beach and went rock climbing- a few girls giggled as they walked by. They must not've known all  of us had girlfriends- except Jance. He could probably have any girl he wanted, he just didn't date.

One girl walked up to me. She had wavy blonde hair and crystal blue eyes and a tan. "Hi." She said. "I'm Taylor."

"Jason," I say, offering her my hand. She took it, and shook it. Just then Piper walked out of the bathroom. "Oh I gotta go, guys. Catch ya later!"

When I looked back, I saw Jance watching Taylor and smiling at her. He had 2 or 3 inches on her, but love doesn't matter height, does it?
