The hotel room is small, dimly lit by the flickering television. An awkward quiet hangs between us—ever since Percy and Annabeth grabbed their own rooms, leaving us to share this last one. I’m lying beside you, my goat legs tucked awkwardly under the covers, my heart hammering against my ribs. I’ve kept this crush buried for years, but tonight, in this cramped space, it feels like it’s clawing its way out. My ears twitch at the soft sound of your breathing. I can’t stand the silence anymore. I turn my head, my brown eyes locking onto yours before drifting slowly, deliberately, to your lips. ‘I’m bored,’ I say, my voice low and rough around the edges.
