Katie carried her tray uneasily to her table. She stupidly had agreed to a bet with Travis about who could eat the most cereal in one sitting, so Katie had stacked her tray with a two bowls, two spoons, and tons of cartons of milk. It had taken her a few minutes after agreeing to the bet to realize what she had done. She hadn't really been considering what was going on when he tricked her into it. It happened yesterday morning when Katie was picking the last of the strawberries of the season before the supposed frost Mr. D was letting in.

FLASHBACK!

"Sup, Gardner," Travis had smirked as he knelt on the ground next to the preoccupied Katie. She gave him a loud "mhmm" as she focused on picking or ripening the fruit.

"So guess what! I found out that your mom, Demeter is the goddess of cereal!" Travis told her, triumphantly smiling. She paused what she was doing and gave him a blank stare.

"Really, Travis? You seriously didn't know that? Wow, I bet Connor knew that, and he's younger than you." Katie retorted as she moved on to another patch of strawberries. Travis scooted along with her.

"Well, I wanted to know if you liked cereal, too!" Travis said. Katie rolled her eyes.

"No, I hate cereal. Never eaten it in my life." Katie sarcastically replied, wishing Travis would leave her alone and go do whatever Stolls do.

"Oh, well the camp is now offering more cereal at breakfast now! I was going to ask you which ones you thought were good, since you should be like a blackbelt in cereal or something. Oh well, I'll have to ask one of your sisters, I suppose." Travis shrugged and began to stand up. For some reason, Katie didn't want Travis to talk to her sisters. I mean, Travis was here on this planet to bug her, and only her.

"Gods, Travis, I was kidding! Now, which ones are there now?" Katie asked. Travis began to list the new cereals offered at the camp, but Katie didn't really listen. Gods, was she tired. She hadn't gotten enough sleep yesterday (stupid wreaths) and she spent half of the night attending Rosie who had caught a fever. Wow, was Rosie burning up…

"KATIE!" Travis nudged her, who had kind of zoned out.

"Wh-what? Oh, yeah. Cereal! Well, I think they're all good, actually. I could eat everyone of them." She blinked her eyes as she returned to her work.

"Really? Well, I bet I could eat every single brand of them too, and more!"Travis pushed.

"Well, I could eat all of them plus infinity!" Katie responded.

"Really, cause I think I could eat way more cereal than you! You might be a daughter of Demeter, but I don't think you could compare to me and my awesomeness!" Travis started. He did not compare himself to Mom! Katie thought, raged by Travis's arrogance.

"Oh yeah? Well, I could totally eat more cereal than you!" Katie raged. She had no idea that this mere conversation turned into such a big argument. Travis was luring her into a trap, and she was too angry to realize what was happening.

"Nah, you couldn't!" Travis teased, he said shaking his head. That set off a bomb in Katie's mind.

"How much would you like to bet on that, Stoll?" Katie sharply asked. Uh, oh. First thing, Katie didn't like gambling, and two: she made a bet with a son of Hermes. Katie was too irritated by Travis to realize she was doing these two things. And those words were like music to Travis's ears.

"How about, one day of being the other's servant, I believe I'm that good!"

"Deal! Swear it on the River Styx!" Katie commanded.

"I swear on the River Styx that if I can't eat more cereal than Katie Gardner, I will be her servant for a day. Now you swear!" Katie repeated his words. She was too fed up to realize what she had done.

"Sweet! Tomorrow morning, before breakfast! It's a bet!" Travis said, standing up and wiping the dirt of his jeans. Katie nodded and continued to her work. After a few minutes of replaying the scene that had occurred, Katie dropped the strawberry she had picked. She just made a bet with Travis Stoll, and she hadn't even considered the situation! Those sons of Hermes…Katie muttered, always messing up your thoughts with their annoyingness!

}{}{}{}{}{}{}{}{

"Ready to become a maid for me, Gardner?" Travis teased as he sat down in front of her at the Demeter table. No one else would be waking another two and a half hours; it was still a little dark out, but Travis insisted it would be more fun this way. Katie reluctantly snuck into the kitchen to stash some bowls while Travis had pick locked the food storage and gathered all the supplies necessary. Thirty full boxes of Coco Puffs spread out on the table, fifteen for Katie, fifteen for Travis. Whoever ate the most boxes of cereal would win the bet. No throwing up allowed, and first one to stand up will be considered finished, thus the other would win if they had eaten more. Simple enough.

"As if, Stoll. And can we just get this stupid thing over with…" Katie sighed as she opened one of the boxes and poured the cereal into the bowl while he reached from across the table to snatch a bowl and spoon. She poured the carton of milk into a glass and looked up at Travis. She couldn't believe he tricked her into this. He finished dumping cereal into his bowl and looked up at her expectantly. After the count of three, the two began munching on their cereal.

It took her almost thirty-five minutes to finish the first box. Her stomach was not even close to being full yet. Travis didn't seem to be full yet, so Katie grabbed another box and filled up her bowl for the twentieth time.

"""""""""""""""""""""

"HAHAHAHA!" Katie giggled as she opened up her sixth box of cereal. She was sugar high. Travis smiled as he lazily crunched on another spoon of cereal, his eyes drifting to the back of his head. The sun hadn't risen yet, so she knew she had another hour or so. Katie was too hyper to wonder why she wasn't full yet, she guessed her jittery hands and feet burned off the calories. Katie stuffed another spoon full of the chocolate cereal into her mouth.

"Travis, whadda ya want for Christmas?" She giggled. She realized that for the entire time they were sitting there that he hadn't struck up a conversation.

"I dunno, whadda bout you?" He asked his hands twitching. If having a sugar rush wasn't enough, imagine having a sugar rush while having ADHD.

"I dunno, a jacket I guess? My jacket now is too thin and small!" She quickly replied as she stuffed another spoon into her mouth quickly.

"You know what! I gettin' you a jacket! HAHAHA!"

()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()

The sugar rush crashed on the two hard, but that didn't stop Katie or Travis.

Katie felt her eyes drooping and her hands felt slower and heavier as she crammed another spoon sloppily into her mouth. Her tongue was tired and her jaw was loose, but Katie wasn't going to lose that bet. Travis looked worse. His head was on the table, one hand on his stomach, another feeding another serving into his mouth from below.

"I ha-ate cereal..." Travis yawned as he shoved another spoon down his throat. Katie wanted to moan in agreement, but she couldn't hate cereal... it would be like dissing her mom if she did!

"Ka-die, wh-at du y-you want fer Christmas?" Travis moaned as he poured himself another bowl. He had asked that question three times before.

"I just want to slap you and Connor. Th-that's exactly what I w-want." Katie as she dropped her head to the table. The sun had risen a couple minutes ago, and she heard campers waking up in the distance.

"Travis, how much have you eaten?" Katie asked, as she forced herself to slump back up. Travis groaned.

"Count for youself." He grumbled shortly as he unenthusiastically dug his spoon back into his bowl. Katie wryly grinned. He had nine opened up boxes: eight empty boxes by his elbow, and he was slowly finishing number nine. Katie was halfway done with ten! Travis looked like he would upchuck any second now, so all Katie had to was finish this bowl and another more. And Travis would be her butler all day!

"Aw, well I only have eaten seven! I'm almost done with eight." Katie lied. Maybe Travis would give up, claim he won, but really have lost. She forced herself to gulp another serving. Travis slightly laughed.

"I'm win-ning!" He chuckled, and stopped eating. He stood up immediately. YES! Katie applauded herself! Travis is my all mine, MAUAHAHAH! Katie grinned to herself. Katie unsteadily stood up and went to go rub it in his face. He deserved it for dragging her out here at five in the morning!

"Ha! Got you, Travis! I ate ten boxes!" She slowly gloated. Travis's eyebrows rose in confusion.

"So?" He asked, shrugging his slumped shoulders.

"I WIN!" She rubbed in.

"Uh, no you didn't." Travis replied bluntly.

"Yea, I did! You only ate nine boxes and stood up, and I only ate ten boxes! I ate more cereal than you!"

"I ate eleven boxes." He insisted, pointing to his side of the table. Nine empty boxes were on the table, two empty boxes had fallen onto the ground. Katie twitched her eyes.

"What! I did-didn't see those two on the ground! I thought you had only eaten eight and was working up to nine! I d-didn't know!" Katie whimpered. It dawned on Katie that she would be Travis's maid for the rest of the day. Maybe if she could puppy eye him or something to a rematch...

"Well, you have an oath to hold onto, Gardner. And speaking of names, you shall now refer to me as Lord Travis, the oh Great One, now!" Travis said, as he tapped a finger to his lips. "Hmmm...And I'll have to get you an outfit! Don't worry though, I'll keep it somewhat appropriate…" Travis continued. Katie sighed. This is going to be a long day.
