Piper's POV

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the incident with Summer and her brother, Summer had definitely become more attached to Piper and Annabeth. It had become harder to go anywhere without Summer coming up to Piper and asking her questions about Camp and stuff. Questions, of course, that she told Summer to go ask Annabeth since Annabeth knew a lot more and was the smarter of them both.

Despite the whole friendship necklace thing, Summer was spending much more time with other kids her age and older, making Piper feel like she had an almost mother-daughter bond with Summer. It was an odd feeling, but also one that warmed her heart at the same time.

Regardless of the fact she had Summer constantly coming up to her, Piper had managed to find some time to herself in her cabin. That was, until Leo ,Thalia and Piper's brother Mitchell entered the cabin with suspicious grins on their faces. Piper sighed and stood up from her bed.

"What do you guys want?"

"Nothing much dearest sister," Mitchell spoke. Leo nodded.

"Yep, definitely not here because we were talking and wanted to talk to you."

Piper rolled her eyes. Gods, did they really think I was going to fall for that? I know what they want to talk about. Especially with my brother here.

"Guys, I know what you want to talk about and short story short, I refuse to talk to you about it," She replied, flopping back down on her bed.

"C'mon McLean," Thalia spoke up, "at least come play truth or dare with us so you aren't lonely. You wouldn't not want to play truth or dare would you?"

Raising her eyebrow, Piper propped herself up on her elbow.

"What if I want to be alone though?"

Leo snorted and Thalia rolled her eyes, crossing her arms.

"You may not want us here, but I know you don't want to be alone alone. You know, I'm pretty sure there is a certain person you'd rather be with right now."

Piper opened her mouth and closed it again without speaking, already feeling a slight heat crawling to her cheeks despite her best efforts. She knew Thalia was talking about Annabeth. And she had been right. Unfortunately, Annabeth was currently doing something else somewhere. Piper had no idea what Annabeth was doing but she was sure that she would rather be with Annabeth than in her cabin alone.

Piper scowled at the smile on Thalia's face and reluctantly got up off her comfy bed. I may not want to play truth or dare with these guys, but I am feeling alone right now. Rolling her eyes at the triumphant grins that spread across the faces of Thalia, Leo, and Mitchell, Piper chucked on her cardigan and motioned towards the door.

"Come on guys. Better not wait on playing truth or dare."

This is a very bad idea.

Annabeth's POV

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Annabeth wrapped her fingers around the cup of tea she was holding, preparing herself for the questions. She was sitting at of the tables in the empty dining pavilion, facing Reyna and Hazel who were across the table from her. They had asked to talk to her somewhere. Annabeth already knew what they wanted to talk about and it was making her nervous. She was glad it was just Hazel and Reyna, and only hoped that Thalia and Leo hadn't gone off to 'talk' to Piper about the same topic.
