“I’m not leaving you alone on my bed, Stoll. Who do you think I am?”
“That’s the point, Rory. Percy will get jealous.”
“Please. He’s not the jealous type. Percy doesn’t really give any fucks about anything. And he doesn’t like me.”

The girl just rolled her eyes at her friend, denying her crush on Percy to a frowning Aurora. “Hate to break it to you, babe, but half of the camp has a crush on him. We hold Break The Crush sessions every Wednesday at 4:15 in the Apollo Cabin. But don’t worry about it. You’re the only one he actually wants. The rest of us don’t stand a chance.”
“True. He won’t even look at anyone else. Like, new kids come in and think they have a shot, and then they see him staring at you, and we just know we’re done for.”
“What? You guys are absurd. Percy doesn’t like me. And you guys are so much prettier than I am! There’s no way in Hades.”
“You’re the only one who could say that and it not be true.”
