Sea Princess
Chapter 12
I sighed as I looked at Blake and smiled at him. We were chilling in my cabin and watching TV. Then Percy, Annabeth, and Grover came busting through the door right as Blake and I kissed.
"Hey!" Percy said. I groaned and pulled away.
"What?" We asked slightly annoyed. I saw Blake was twirling his snake bites in annoyance as he stared at the tree of them. They always happened to burst in on us whenever we would be making out or just kissing and it was starting to get annoying.
"It's Thalia's tree." Annabeth said. I nodded and slipped on some flip-flops and then we hurried to the tree where people had gathered around it. I pushed past them none of them making any noise about it. Good because they should know better than to say anything to me. I froze when I got to the front of the crowd. Thalia was lying at the base of the tree. That wasn't good or maybe it was. I don't know but I do know that wasn't normal. Percy came up beside me and then went to Thalia.
"She needs nectar and ambrosia." Percy said as he moved her into a sitting position. No one around us moved. I couldn't even move myself. I was in too much shock honestly.
"Come on! What's wrong with you people? Let's get her to the Big House," He yelled at us. Apparently he didn't know how weird this was for us. Then Thalia coughed and opened her eyes. I smiled at her.
"Who-" She asked.
"I'm Percy, you're safe now," Percy said.
"Strangest dream..." She muttered.
"It's okay." Percy said. Well it was okay now but I mean a moment ago it was super weird.
"Dying," She muttered. I remembered that night. It was horrible because all I remembered was blood and screaming. It was a nasty night.
"No, you're okay. What's your name?" He asked.
"I'm Thalia daughter of Zeus," She said. Everyone stood there and then they started moving around and then took her to the Big House and Blake and I walked back to the cabin and Bethany joined us with her douche-bag boyfriend. I was biting my lip and shaking my head.
"I can't believe that Thalia is back." Bethany muttered as I sat down on the couch in my cabin.
"I know right," I muttered as I pulled my legs up on the couch and I tucked them underneath me.
"I don't wanna talk about it. It feels like it's an omen. But what I do wanna talk about is you're 16th birthday miss Cassi. I mean it's the big 16." Bethany gushed.
"I don't want to talk about it. I just feel like it's going to be horrible," I said.
"Why?" She asked.
"Because! I mean the prophecy about one of the children of the big three reaching 16. I don't wanna hear about it. I mean someone’s bound to bring it up and I rather not know if I die." I said.
"It's about Percy." Bethany said instantly.
"How do you know?" I asked.
"Because I feel like saying it's about him." She teased. I rolled my eyes and laughed. Blake shook his head and pulled me up into his lap. He wrapped his arms around my waist and squeezed me lightly smiling.
"It's warm in here." I said.
"Then take off your shirt." Dillon smirked. I shrugged and leaned forward and pulled off my shirt revealing my string bikini underneath and Blake whistled at it and I smirked and looked back him and kissed him lightly. He ran his fingers over my skin lightly on my stomach and smiled at me.
"Well I'm going to throw you a party on the beach anyway." Bethany said.
"Alright well if someone ends up dead because of it do not blame me!" I said. She nodded and then grabbed a little notebook from the table beside the couch and a pencil and then started making a list of what we needed. I laughed at her and then smiled at her. I turned on the TV and then started going through the channels.
"Well you two are boring I'm going," Bethany said. We waved to her and Dillon followed her out. I looked back at Blake and then kissed him lightly. He wrapped his arms around my waist and held me to him. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me. He ran his fingers across my waist to trace the scar Luke had left. I wander what he was doing right now?
I pulled back and smiled at him. He started pulling on the strings of my bikini and I laughed at him and stood up. I slipped out of my shorts and went over to him and straddled his waist. He whistled. I smirked and planted my lips onto his and I felt him moan against my lips. I moved so that I was lying down and he moved with me. He nuzzled my neck and then the door opened up and I groaned as I glanced up to see Percy and Annabeth.
"Oh my god what now?!" I asked as I sat up pushing Blake back up. He groaned and spun his snake bit around in his lip annoyed. Percy turned red in the face embarrassed. Annabeth stood there arms crossed over herself.
"You know you're not allowed to be in a cabin by yourself with another of the opposite sex." She said. I rolled my eyes.
"I'm not a girl to follow the rules. If you haven't noticed I'm a bad girl." I said. She rolled her eyes and I smirked. Blake chuckled and sat back on the couch and I sat up.
"So your birthday is soon," Percy reminded me and I groaned along with Blake.
"Ruined the mood thank you Percy," He muttered angrily as he went to my bed and laid down closing his eyes. I laughed and stood up.
"Yeah I know but that doesn't mean I'm going to do anything about it. I mean I guess it's special but I mean I don't care." I said.
"But the prophecy," Annabeth said.
"What about it? The world might go to hell or it might not. It's a gamble like Chiron said," I said. Percy stared at me with his mouth open and I rolled my eyes.
"I thought you were scared," Blake teased from my bed. I rolled my eyes.
"I was then I'm like 'Cassi you're losing your edge!' I'm not afraid of anything," I said as I pulled my shorts and shirt back on. I smiled at them both before starting to braid my hair into a fish-tail braid.
"Besides Luke," Annabeth muttered. I froze and I turned around and glared at her. I completely abandoned my hair and stared at her as my hands clenched into fist.
"I dare you to say that again," I growled.
"You are afraid of Luke," She said. I picked up my sword and she pulled out her dagger.
"Say that to my face," I said. She came forward and Percy pulled her back and Blake stood in front of me.
"Guys you shouldn't be fighting," Percy said. I rolled my eyes. Then Annabeth stormed off and Percy followed her. I rolled my eyes and dropped my sword and looked at Blake. I took a deep breath and then looked around the place. I closed all the blinds and the drapes that went to my room and then I smirked as at Blake.
"Where were we?" I asked.
"You're scary," He murmured as he came up to me.
"Thank you," I whispered kissing him lightly. He wrapped his arms around my waist. I smiled in the kiss and then started pushing him backwards slightly until he was sitting down in bed. Then then someone ran in and whistled.
"Blake did you forget about training?!" Dillon snapped. Blake groaned and then I got off him. I stared at Dillon like 'are you fucking kidding me?'
"I don't want to go," He whined as he ran his fingers up and down my back.
"Dude are you kidding me? Remember the last time you didn't go," He said. He rolled his eyes and then kissed me quickly.
"Pick up later?" He asked as he grabbed his stuff.
"Yeah, whatever." I murmured.
"I love you Cassi," He smiled. My heart melted and I smiled at him.
"I love you too Blake." I smiled. He kissed me again and then took off out through the door and then I clapped and all my blinds went up and I grabbed my guitar. I went to the dock and looked at the water.
"You don't know my name
You don't know anything about me
I tried to play nice
I wanna be in your game
The things that you say
Now you may think
I never hear about them
But word travels fast
I'm telling you to your face
I'm standing here behind your back
You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend
On the outside looking in
If you could read my mind
You might see more of me
Than meets the eye
And you've been all wrong
Not who you think I am
You've never given me a chance
You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend
On the outside looking in
I'm tired of staying at home
I'm bored and all alone
I'm sick of wasting all my time
You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend
On the outside looking in
You don't know how it feels
To be outside the crowd
You don't know what it's like
To be left out
And you don't know how it feels
To be your own best friend
On the outside looking in...." I sang as I stared out at the water. I smiled as I looked over the edge of the dock and saw myself smiling. Then I pulled out of my pocket a gold drachma. This was a bad idea I knew it. I hated myself for even thinking about doing this. I mean this was kind of being a traitor but there was still this tug at my heart because I knew what he was going through because sometimes I felt the same but I wasn't willing to do what he was to get my revenge.
"Oh Iris please accept this token of gratitude. Luke Castellan, Princess Andromeda." I said as I tossed it into the water. Then Luke's face appeared. He looked shocked to see me and then a smile passed over his face.
"Hey," He smiled.
"Hi," I said.
"How's the slash?" He asked. I poked it.
"It healed alright, it’s pretty wicked looking." I said.
"I didn't mean for you to get hit." He said as he frowned.
"I know Luke," I said.
"I miss you Cassi," He said.
"I know who doesn't at some point...so what are you doing right now?" I asked before I went through strumming.
"Sitting around waiting, you?" He asked.
"I'm just sitting on the dock strumming and waiting for Blake, he went down to do some training," I said.
"Maybe I should stop by to see if he's worthy to go out with you." He teased. I smiled weakly.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"It's nothing...” I said. He nodded and then I noticed the sun was going down.
"You're not good at lying," He said. I laughed and smiled at him. Then he glanced away from the message and then I saw a slight smirk appear on the side of his mouth.
"Cassi...your birthday's in two days." He said. I nodded.
"Happy Birthday if I don't see you," He said. I smiled and nodded.
"Thanks and thanks for the gifts." I said.
"No problem but I got to go see you later," He said. I waved and then the message disappeared and I stared out at the ocean. I shook my head. I sat at the dock until the sun set and I heard footsteps behind me.
"Hey." Blake said. I nodded and then glanced up at him. He had his shirt off and it was in his hand and I whistled. He chuckled.
"What's up you look down," He said. I sat my guitar down beside me on the dock.
'It's nothing just eh." I said. He chuckled and sat down next to me. I wrapped my arms around his waist and then hugged him. He chuckled and then hugged me back.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"I'm confused." I admitted as I started to bite my lip.
"About what?" He asked as he pulled me closer. I leaned my head on his shoulder and sighed.
"About my life, I don't know if I'm gonna die in two days or stuff." I said.
"You're not going to I won't allow it." He said.
"But what if I do?" I asked.
"You won't trust me," He promised kissing me lightly. I hugged him and he smiled.
"Don't worry because your birthday is going to be banging," He said. I nodded and then we heard scratching and I glanced down the beach to see Harpies. Shit! I grabbed my guitar and then Blake's hand and pulled him up and he didn't question me. We ran to my cabin and I closed the door to it just in time and Percy came out in his boxers staring at me confused and he wiped his eyes and then turned a faint red. I chuckled and smiled at him.
"You mind if stays the night? Harpies are out and I don't want Blake caught," I said.
"Yeah sure," He said.
"Thanks little bro," I smiled. I kissed him on the cheek and then took Blake with me back into my room. I closed the curtain to the door and he went over by the lake and splashed some cool water on him. I changed into my pajamas and lay down and he laid down beside me and wrapped his arms around my waist.
"What's wrong Cassi you've been quiet this whole time," He said after about ten minutes.
"I was just thinking," I said.
"About Luke?" He asked. I nodded my head.
"Like not about him per say I mean about what he's doing. When he kind of kidnapped me someone told him they needed me for when I turned sixteen. I just wanna know why. Like am I gonna get some magic powers or something..." I said turning to face Blake. His face softened and he hugged me.
"Don't worry about it C. I swear I will protect you on your birthday. I promise to your father." He murmured.
"I love you Blake," I smiled.
"I love you too Cassi," He smiled. I kissed him lightly before snuggling next to him and falling asleep.
"Hey!" Percy said. I groaned and pulled away.
"What?" We asked slightly annoyed. I saw Blake was twirling his snake bites in annoyance as he stared at the tree of them. They always happened to burst in on us whenever we would be making out or just kissing and it was starting to get annoying.
