It started fake, but then things got real...
Katie Gardner's POV:
Yayyyyy! after all those years of liking him, Travis Stoll, the man of my dreams finally told me he loved me!!!! ahhhhh! EEEEEEEEEE!!!
Flashback time:
Ok so, a girl from the Hecate cabin Jenna Quinn and Travis just broke up. He and I were friends, but he pranks me every day so its a love/hate relationship. And I know what you're thinking, Pranks? like the toothpaste and oreos and tapping someones shoulder opposite you so they don't know who did it? No those aren't the pranks I get. I get Koolade on the shower head (so that my skin is blue for weeks), They dye my hair in the middle of the night ( they as in Travis and his younger brother Connor), and they do it EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!! Why are their pranks so awful, you may ask? Its because both of them are the children of the god of thieves, travelers and merchants, Hermes.
But ANYWHOOO, here's the tea: I like Travis. I have liked him for several years and every day when he pranks me it makes me more and more hopeless of him every liking me.
Today, today i did something that i will probably regret and is probably a horrible idea, Travis asked me to be his fake girlfriend. And i said yes. He wanted to get Jenna back. It was stupid, helping a guy break my heart, but it could be worse.
The next day....
Travis didn't prank me. I was so surprised i almost asked him why and then i realized that it was because he was my "boyfriend" now. I was walking to breakfast when suddenly strong arms wrapped around me and it was none other than the super hot, curly haired, son of Hermes, Travis. Then my sister Miranda (she is also a daughter of demeter) came up slapped him across the face and demanded to know what heck he was doing. "TRAVIS STOLL WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?" And he replied," hugging my girlfriend obviously." Miranda almost passed out, but thankfully Connor (travis' brother and Miranda's boyfriend) caught her just before she fell. then we went to the party at the posiedon cabin.
after we were there a while, jason, piper, connor, miranda, percy, annabeth, leo, nico, thalia, travis, and I all decided to play truth or dare. It was my turn first. I chose piper." piper. hehehehe. truth or dare?" she picked dare." ok pipes, I dare you to..... hmmm.... kiss the first person that walks through the door!" she looks slightly nervous and then jake mason walks in. she kissed him on the cheek and he just looked confused. she whispered into his ear,"it was a dare." then piper told travis " truth or dare?" he automatically replied "dare" she smiled mischieviously and said " i dare you to kiss katie for 5 mins." we both turned bright red and then he leaned over and kissed me. i automatically wrapped my arms around him. It was like we'd done this hundreds of times before. then he put his arms around my waist and pushed me closer to him. it was heavenly. then piper said," and the five minutes are up." then travis pulled away and kissed the tip of my nose. he pulled me against him and i felt so safe, so content, and so happy, until i realized that it was all fake. it was just and act. he wanted jenna back and she was definately jealous based on the way she glared daggers at me the rest of the night. when travis and i left the party, he grabbed my hand and guided my towards the pier. then he picked me up and threw me over his shoulder. he said "wow kaite kat you're really light"as i laughed and told him to put me down. once he did though, he didn't put me all the way down, he sat me down on the railing of the pier and started kissing me with a passion that was unimaginable. then i broke away and said"jenna looked super jealous after piper's dare, you should be glad she probably will want to get back together with you soon" and he replied" yea" but he looked crest fallen and upset. so i kissed him on the nose and he set me down and i said "i'm so tired " so he scooped me up like a baby and brought me all the way back to my cabin.
Travis POV:
yesterday was Amazing!!!!! katie is so beautiful. but i don't think i want to get back together with jenna. part of me thinks that shes only doing it because of jenna, but the why would she have kissed me last night on the pier? no one was there. hmmm... i don't know. but i want kaite to love me. i snuck up behind katie at breakfast and tickled her until she couldn't breathe, then she kissed me until i couldn't breathe we are gonna go to sparring practice together and we paired up. my lovely brown haired green eyed girl... lol i feel like a child of Aphrodite. but today i saw jenna and michael yew making out. and i just started kissing katie. she was surprised but the once jenna saw she pulled away from her make out shesh with michael and walked away all flustered.
after that, i went to the strawberry fields to go see my katie kat. but when i go tthere she had tears cascading down her cheeks and her sobbing quietly as she gardened. i walked up to her and gently envaloped her into my arms. i ran my hands through her hair and kissed her forehead softly until her tears slowed and eventually stopped. then i gently whispered" who did this? " whoever did would have seriously cruel pranks for the rest of the summer. but then she breathed out the name " jenna" and then her eyes welled with tears that threatened to overcome her. then all of a sudden she kissed my nose and backed away."trav- she is vicious. either tell here off or go date her, but i can't take this anymore. I can't be your fake girlfriend anymore. she keeps hurting me so badly and it was bad before i decided to fake date you and now it's downright unbearable. it makes me cry every time. she makes me feel so worthless..." her voice trailed off. and i found myself dumbstruck. this happened often? why didn't i know about it? i can't let my katie kat leave. so i started walking toward her and she said " travis please don't make this harder that it has to be." but i kept walking closer and closer and then i wraped her in my arms and said " kaitie i love you. " then she whispered into my ear for only my ears and she said" travis stoll, you are so amazing and i love you so much." then she kissed me and i gave her a silent promise, i would never let jenna do that ever again.
