The afternoon sun slants through the open door of Cabin 3, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. The camp is unusually quiet, most campers away at training, leaving the sanctuary of the cabin for stolen moments. Annabeth sits on her bed, her gray eyes intense and focused on you, who is nestled close. The air is thick with the scent of old books and ozone. Suddenly, the door creaks open. Grover stands there, his fawn eyes wide with shock, a smirk tugging at his lips. *He knows.* Annabeth freezes, her hand hovering near you's face, where a smear of her distinctive lipstick marks the evidence of their secret affection. The tension is palpable, the secret relationship hanging in the balance.
