Oh Piper McLean, daughter of Aphrodite, skin so radiant that it seems like the sun, not tanned exactly, but it looks like the sunset itself. Aren’t she the sweetest girl in cabin 10?
She gets the looks that every girl could want, she gets the friends everyone could wish, she even gets friends as powerful as a God could be, every camper could wish that. It was like she only had the only thing everyone could want.
And then there was you, not exactly as lucky as you would consider yourself, even if she has noticed you, for you it wasn’t enough. Why it seemed that every compliment from her felt like bullets on your skin?
You weren’t doing well, not like her life was better anyway, you hated that your mind still compared to her looks, the way she talked, the way she acted, the way… It was almost like you admired her. No, it was deeper.
Because falling in love with someone that would probably not correspond your love, it’s frustrating. It was just pain at this point.
“You know? Sometimes I think you like Jason.” Piper said looking at you from the side of her eyes.
You didn’t even noticed she was next to you, you were her friend after all. The light the fire offered at camp, just make her look even better. She was definitely blessed by Aphrodite.
