I sat on my bed. My lip was sore since i had been bitting it for the past twenty minutes. I felt bad for going with mike because i just6 wanted to throw it in nicos face. Not like he cared but still. Percy came in. He wouldn't look me in the eye. I didn't want to be the killer of silence, but.
"Percy"?
"Hmm"? His eyes were still down.
"How much of the fight did you see"?
"Everything". His voice was trembling.
"Oh".
"Nico,me and Annabeth".
"I..I". Couldn't finish my sentence. I felt horrible. Nico saw my slash at his girlfriend. Heard the way she talked to me.
"Did you see before the fight.. When we were talking"?
"Yes So did Annabeth me and...". He didn't have to finish his sentence. I kept my head down. Percy looked up.
"Alena i'm..".
"Leaving". Thalia popped in the doorway. She smiled as if she told him that he won the lottery.
"I hear you got a date Alena so ill need a little more time to work with, and nobody from Aphrodite cabin will help me..Do you know why"? She actually looked clueless. Percy left the cabin and shut the door.
"First things first dress". I slid into my dress. Thalia pushed me onto the bed. She ha setup a makeup studio on Percy's bed. She applied all the makeup she felt necessary. When she was done she pulled out a hair curler. she curled my hair into talyor swift style ringlets she pulled my bangs back with a obis-dean moon clip she help between her teeth. She slid me into my heels and put my mask gingerly over my face so my makeup didn't get messed up. It was eight thirty. Thalia finished getting ready and by then it was 9:00. We headed to the "glass room" Which was Beyond the blue mansion. Other people were heading in the same direction all in different masks, and dresses. A boy taller than me stood in the front hand in his pockets he had curly brown hair and happy brown eyes under the eye holes in his mask. Thalia left and i walked up to mike.
"Alena"? I smiled.
"Yeah How did you know".
"I'll always know those eyes". My cheeks burned with embarrasset. Mike grabbed my hand and led me to the door where we collided with another couple. Mike gestured for them to go first. The girl wore a green satin dress and had straightened bright red hair that hung to her waist. The boy had a pale skin with olive tones with jet black hair that was also stick straight but it was natural with dark brown eyes. Filled with pity. He turned away and led a evil girl through the door. No not evil just lucky. Mike led me into the room right after.
"Can you dance"?
"Um like what"?
"Waltzing"
"Yea". After i finished my word mike led me to the large dance floor. Mike took me in his embrace and we floated into the music. We must have dance for an hour but it only felt like minutes. Mike led us off the dance floor and we sat on the bench that sat on the side.
"Can i have the next dance. A boy in a black suit with a white mask, olive toned pale skin and dark brown eyes stared at me. I looked at mike.
"Go ahead". He let go of my hand i hadn't been aware of holding mine. The boy Led me into a dance i didn't know but i easily fit into it. The song ended and the orchestra left and a Band entered. Their drum had a logo of a moon fairy with frecles smiling out at me with the words underneath printing" A loveless night with freckles". And the freckles that speckled my face felt hot like someone burned them indivually. The song started and The boy led me off the dance floor.
"Alena i'm so sorry".
"Who are you"? I already knew but i wanted to see his face. He lifted his mask off and he smiled.
"Me, who else"? He pulled my mask off to.
"You are so pretty Alena". Im pretty sure my cheeks were as red as firetrucks beacase Nico smiled wider. His smile dissapeared and he leaned in an pressed my lips to his. He parted my lips with his and kissed me more deeply. I plunged into happiness and wrapped my arms around his neck the same time his wound around my waist.
"Hello hello our next song is I love you boy has been requested by veronica voldez to her boyfriend Nico DI Angelo. Nico shifted his mask back to cover his face and walked away. NO goodbye, No sorry. He just walked away. I stood there waiting for him to come back. He didn't. I slid my mask back over my face. Mike was still waiting in the same spot. "Lets go dance". He grabbed my hand and pulled me along. It was dance music so he positioned himself behind me and started swaying to the music. After at least a minute i swayed to. And soon started really dancing.
"Okay everybody take your masks off"! I pulled mine off and mike gasped. He just stared at me. I soon felt blush creeping up my cheeks and i looked away just in time to see the couple next me embrace and kiss. When they pulled away i could finally see who it was. Nico and veronica. I looked away as fast as i could but Nico saw me. Mike was still staring at me. He leaned in and kissed me. WHAT THE HECK WAS WITH THE KISSING TONIGHT? i wanted to scream Mike parted my lips and kissed me again. I pulled away and looked up and Matt was still staring at me. Veronica was staring at me. Nico was staring at me, Annabeth, Percy and Thalia. Was i the center of attention? The music resumed after everyone was done taking their masks off. And i resumed dancing with Mike a little more just to throw it in nicos face. The dance ended at about 3 in the morning and classes were canceled for tommarow. Mike walked me back to my cabin, kissed me goodnight and left.
"Percy"?
