Thalia

"Over here, Thalia!" My father's voice thundered. I strode over, trying to look confident. My knees were shaking very badly, a group of children sniggered at my shaking knees. I put on a confident face and walked on, putting my head up high. Zeus gave me a bear hug. I felt squished, but didn't comment because the children who had sniggered at me stared in awe and horror. They quickly rushed over and apologised. I smirked at them and turned away. Zeus and I had a lovely lunch with spaghetti and pizza. I treasured every moment of it. When it was time to go, Zeus accompanied me to the boarding school and had a little talk with the teachers. They all gave me compliments, especially Chiron, who was my favourite teacher.

I left them talking and sped over to Annabeth and Grover. They looked relieved that I had come back. Grover politely asked me how was lunch, but Annabeth jumped straight to when Grover and herself went into the hospital. From their expressions, I could tell it was not a joke. I listened attentively and tried to reassure Annabeth and Grover. I could tell that they were pretty pissed out. Then I got tired of their problem and suggested that we all go out for ice-cream. This seemed to calm them more and they agreed. I quickly changed into my old black outfit while Annabeth settled for a pair of light blue jeans and her favourite dark blue jacket. We walked out of our room to find Grover wearing a cow boy outfit. "What do you think you are wearing?!" We both shouted out at the same time. I high fived Annabeth. Grover turned a three hundred sixty degree turn. "I like it," he said with passion, "and don't forget, Thalia, you were supposed to comfort me, not lecture me." I nodded, he has a point. Today was supposed to be me comforting Grover and Annabeth. "Alright!" Annabeth screamed with impatience, "can we go now, please?" she added. I nodded, "lets hurry up before all the seats get taken," Grover agreed and we set off.

Annabeth

I saw Thalia running wildly towards us. Grover obviously must have seen her too, because he straightened himself up and politely asked her how was lunch when she got here. I certianly was not that polite. I jumped right over to complaints. Luckily, Thalia was used to it and listened with interest. She even tried to calm us down when Grover and I got a bit carried away, kicking grass and punching the ground. She made a splendid suggestion by asking us if we wanted to go for ice-cream. We both agreed, though I tried to keep a straight face. Grover on the other hand, jumped up and down with excitement like a little toddler. Thalia rolled her eyes and nudged me, "cheer up, sister!" she yelled and punched me playfully in the ribs. I shrieked and tackled her. We then decided to go change. Thalia changed back to her usual outfit. While I changed into my bue theme. We both looked normal. But when we stepped out of the room, Wow was all I could think of. Thalia obviously had the same thought because we both burst out laughing and yelled, "what do you think you are wearing?" Grover looked taken back, but he said passionately, "I like it," then he said to Thalia, "don't forget, you are here to comfort us, not lecture us," Thalia put on a fierce look. Uh oh, before they could start argueing, I screamed, "could we please go now?" They both turned to me and nodded.

We set off to the ice-cream shop. I crossed my fingers and hoped that Thalia and Grover would not argue again. Beside me, I heard Thalia whisper to herself, "please let the ice-cream shop have empty seats and please let there be a lot of ice-cream for me." I couldn't help but laugh out loud. Thalia gave me a startled look, then she blushed. Grover grinned, "guess someone is addicted to ice-cream!" he teased. Thalia whacked him with her bag. I stood in the middle of them and stopped them before they could fight anymore. "The ice-cream shop is waiting!" I shrieked.

Grover

Thalia ran over to me and Annabeth. I perked up immediately and asked her in a polite or teasing way, "how was lunch?" They must have thought it was polite because Annabeth made a face and Thalia sneered. I blushed, thinking I had made the wrong step. But Annabeth took over almost immediately, complaining about the hospital incident. I rolled my eyes, like she even went in! Thalia seemed to believe her though and she even comforted us. Then she got this crazy idea of going to the ice-cream shop. Annabeth nodded eagerly and I agreed too.

Thalia and Annabeth went to their room while I went to mine. I picked the most glamorous outfit I owned. Thalia and Annabeth burst out laughing when I walked out of my room. I blushed once again (how I hate blushing). Then, I lectured Thalia and she looked as if she wanted to knock me out. But luckily, Annabeth must have sensed it too because she stepped in the middle and complained that we were using up her spare time. So we set off running towards that ice-cream shop.
