Chapter 1: Planning Hundred Day Kisses

Sam's POV

I just barged in to Carly's apartment, unlocked, as usual. I heard Spencer say, "Hey, Sam, want some ham?"

"Just a ham sandwich. Make it extra ham," I said, without looking at him. "Hey, is Carly here?"

"Yeah, she's upstairs," he said, getting the ham out of the fridge.

"Kay," I said, running up the stairs. I barged into her room, without knocking. "Carlotta Shay," I said, "We need to go to the mall. NOW!"

"Huh?" Carly asked, pulling the earphones of her PearPod out of her ears.

"We need to go to the mall, now!" I repeated.

"Why?" Carly asked.

"I need a dress."

"For what?"

"Mine and Freddie's hundred day kiss," I whispered in her ear. She squealed.

"Oh my God! I should've known! You guys have been dating for, what, three or so months?" Carly asked.

"Yep. Ninety days, 3 hours, and 46 minutes," I said, looking at my watch.

"Wow, you even remembered the minutes. That is true love," she said, putting her hands over his heart.

"So let's go to the mall for a dress," I said, gesturing to the door.

"Okay, let me get my purse, then we can go," Carly said, grabbing her purse and keys to her new car, which she got only two months ago, and we left her room. Once we got downstairs, I grabbed the extra ham sandwich from Spencer. Carly gave me strange looks, which I ignored. We walked down to the parking lot and got into the car, and drove to the mall.

Once we got to the mall, Carly steered me to this dress store, which I couldn't read, because of my dyslexia (and I also have ADHD, so if you make fun of me because of that, I suggest you live near a hospital), but Carly, knowing of my dyslexia, told me, "Elizabeth's Formal Wear. It's the best place to buy dresses for any occasion."

We walked in to the store, and I saw racks and racks of dresses of every color you could think of. A peppy looking, blond-haired girl wearing a black shirt with a nametag that said "Kaitlin," and jean shorts with black flats, walked, almost bounced, over to us.

"Hi!" she said. Her voice was really high, and sounded like she was a cheerleader in high school. "My name is Kaitlin. What can I help you with?"

"My friend, Sam, here needs a dress for—" Carly said.

"Oh my God," Kaitlin interrupted. "You guys are from . I love that show! So what occasion is it for? Is it for a date?"

"Um, no," I said. "It's for my hundred day kiss with my boyfriend."

She gasped. "Is it with Freddie?" she asked. I just blushed. She squealed and Carly joined in. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm going get you a dress. What size are you?" Kaitlin asked me.

"I'm a size 7," I said. She left the room. Right when she was out of earshot, I said to Carly, "I don't like her."

"What?" Carly asked. "She's so nice and sweet,"

"That's why I don't like her," I said, then, seeing that Kaitlin was back with the dresses, I stepped away from Carly, so it didn't look suspicious to Kaitlin.

"Hey," Kaitlin said. "I have your dresses. Go into the dressing room, right over there," she said, pointing to the dressing rooms.

The first one I tried on was a knee-length, navy blue dress with double spaghetti straps. The dress was V-neck with a floral lace pattern covering part of the neck. It was cute, but too tight around the stomach. So I tried on the next one.

The next one was also knee-length, strapless dress. It was white with a multicolored floral pattern, it also had a pink ribbon right below my breast. It fit perfectly, but it was too floral. I tried on the second to last one.

The second to last one came right above the knees, with a thick tank top straps. It was yellow and had two layers for the skirt, because the top layer had a pattern with holes in it. I fit well, and I thought it was cute, but when I showed Carly, she didn't want me to use it.

So I tried on the last one. It was right above the knee, spaghetti strap dress. It had two small ruffles on the bottom, and it had a slight V-neck. When I showed it to Carly, she said, "That's the one," and I nodded my, meaning that I agree. Then Kaitlin gave me some shoes to try on with the dress. Carly told her what my size was.

The shoes were 2-in, black, high heels. It had one strap right beneath the toes. There was another strap that went around my ankle. It fit perfectly and Carly agreed with me that it was the one. It went well with the dress. Then I took both of them off and put on my normal clothes. Then I gave the dress and shoes to Carly, who paid for them. After that, we left to go the food court.

Annabeth's POV

"Hey, Ashley," I called to an Aphrodite girl.

"What?" Ashley asked. I dragged her to the arena, which was empty, and I told her what I wanted her to do for me.

"I need you to help me pick out a dress and shoes for mine and Percy's hundred day kiss." She screamed.

"Oh my gods! I have the perfect dress for you! Let's go!" she said, pulling me to her cabin. Once I got in the Aphrodite cabin, I knew I never wanted to go back in there ever again. It smelled like perfume, and not the good kind. It almost made me gag. Ashley dragged me over to her wardrobe, which consisted mostly of dresses of every size. Apparently, she let almost every girl use a dress from her pile of dresses.

She handed me this first dress that she told me to try on came right above the knees and was strapless. Around the neckline was some ruffles, nothing too major. Where the skirt starts, there was a green strap with a gold flower on it. It had yellow flowers on it and it was really pretty. Ashley said that that was the one. I agreed. At least the trying on didn't take long. Then she gave me some pairs of shoes.

The first pair was a 2-in heel that was silver striped. It had a hole which showed my toes. It was pretty cute, but it was kinda small and didn't go with my dress.

The next pair of shoes was another 2-in heel. This one was bright yellow and was strapped around my ankle. It also showed my toes like the previous one. It went perfectly with my dress and Ashley agreed that I should use it. Then I went back to the bathroom and took off the dress and shoes and put on my normal clothes. I thanked Ashley and went back to my cabin, and put the dress and the shoes up.

I was about to go to archery class when Rose, the tree nymph, well, more like bush nymph, ran up to me, saying, "Annabeth, the two demigods in Seattle are having their hundred day kiss in 9 days. That's where you and Percy should have yours. I know exactly where it is. It's on Seattle's Cliff at midnight in 9 days. Go there and tell them who they are and take them here."

"Okay," I said. "I'll go tell Percy," I said, about to turn to Percy, when I turned around and said, "Bye Carly Shay."

A/N: Oh, a cliff hanger. Now you know what Carly is.

The dresses and shoes that Sam and Annabeth picked out are on my profile.

Do you think it's good? Do you think it sucks? Review telling me.
