Warnings?: Tiny bit of angst but mostly fluff

People can talk A LOT.

You know that because almost immediately after being claimed by Poseidon the entire camp was buzzing with people talking about YOU.

Even as you hid behind the Poseidon cabin you could hear everyones whispers, and you could practically see the fear in their eyes.

you thought after spending years unclaimed In the Hermes cabin people would be happy you got claimed even though a small voice in your head knew why they weren't but they weren't. Instead they all avoided you, friends of over 3 years? gone like the wind.

Your alone, especially since Percy went missing. Annabeth cant even look at you, It hurts.

tears cloud your vision and you sniffle slightly. Maybe somebody can hear you, but behind the Poseidon cabin was somewhere nobody would go.

Crunch

oh you were wrong.

"Sorry, I thought nobody was..sorry." A soft voice flooded your ears, a familiar voice. It was Clovis.

You quickly wiped at your tears and coughed, turning your face away so he couldn't see your red puffy eyes and snotty nose.

"why are you even here,Clovis." it came out harsher then intended, but Clovis didn't mind. he just sat next to you with a soft smile.

"Hey, I heard you got claimed by Poseidon."

A wave of anxiety and anger washed over you, "So what?!" you whipped around to look at him. You knew you didnt look intimidating, nobody could with teary eyes and a wavering voice.

But you couldn't stop yourself from wishing that he'd think you were terrifying and leave you before you got even more attached.

You wished Clovis would just go away, get angry at you, shout, hell angrily fall asleep and dream about hitting you. but he didn't. He let you yell, and wave your arms, and cry out of frustration.

Because as soon as you tired yourself out and sat down again, he'd be there to comfort you.

"Ya'know, even if your a big 3 kid..it doesn't mean anything to me." He began, moving closer to you. Staring at him like he was crazy made him shrink into his oversized orange shirt.

"I know your angry, and tired, and you probably hate me right now but..even with that stupid claim-" he grabbed your hand, and you didn't feel like pulling away for once.

"Your still..you. The same person who laughed at Mr.D once and got 3 weeks punishment of cleaning the horse stables."

you Snickered,and suddenly the tears on your cheek felt numb. he intertwined his fingers with yours, he loved your laugh.

He loved the way your eyes crinkle when you smile, he loves how your always in trouble, he loves you. Not the claim, or your godly parent, you.

But right now he knew that you didn't need to know that. Because right now you needed a friend, living proof that your claim doesn't change anything.

You needed Clovis, your best friend.

and when you needed Clovis, your lover, he'd be there like always.
