Ernie hesitated for a second, then nodded. "I would love to! Beats being a different person at this camp.." He laughed and ran a hand through his hair.

Cory chuckled and said, "Great, it'll be nice to have someone like you with us. I don't know what happened to our other friend Jay. Anyways, do you have an important position within the Cohorts or are you just a legionnaire? I think Aaron is a centurion of the Second Cohort, but I don't think we should really bother him. But first thing is first, I need to talk to your praetors."
"That, would be us." A guy, maybe the age of 20 or so walked in with a girl who looked like she was 15. The boy smirked, "I heard Aaron brought in a Greek and I was hoping it was my brother. I haven't heard from him since I took him to the airport. But whatever, what do you need Cory?"
Cory's eyes almost fell out of his head and he looked at the guy, whom he'd met once or twice and said, "No way, Logan Jackson? You're praetor? I thought you stepped down." Logan chuckled, "Nah, not yet. I'm in the process of looking for another to take my place, someone who's closer to Gina's age. Oh by the way, I didn't introduce you. Cory Jason, this is Gina Velasquez, daughter of Mercury. Gina, this is Cory Jason, son of Nyx. He's on of my brother's companions."
Gina gave a small smile and then turned to Logan, "I have to meet with the centurions about the war games tonight, I think you've got this. I'll see you when you get there." She gave a curt not to Cory and Anabelle before turning on her heel and leaving.
Logan gave a sigh as Cory said, "Not the most friendly of praetors is she?" The son of Neptune chuckled and said, "She has little experience with outsiders and she has reasons not to be very welcoming to Greeks. I'm looking for a praetor who has experience in the outside world a bit more, maybe even one who's visited Camp Half-Blood, but no such luck yet. Anyways, what can I do for River's friend?"
Cory looked at Ernie and and then back to Logan, "Well...we'd like permission to take Ernie out of camp with us. We're looking for a person who is a threat to both your camp and my camp. I recommend higher security until we deal with him." Logan closed his eyes in thought for a moment and then looked back at Cory, "Go for it. But, you aren't going anywhere until you are properly healed. Doc says you've got some really interesting stuff going on in that brain of yours. Nothing a few days of rest can't fix though."
Cory smiled and grabbed Logan's extended hand, "Thanks a lot man. If we see River anywhere, we'll make sure to tell him to check on you." Logan gave a smile of thanks and then gave a nod to Ernie before he headed out the door.

Ernie shrugged. "I'm centurion of the Third Cohort. It's not a high position, but it's still up there." He listened to their conversation, a little amused by the relations. "A few days rest would be great. We can gather supplies and I can find a replacement for the Third Cohort."

Cory clapped his hands together and smiled, "Alright. Soon as I can get up without passing out, we'll come and find you. For now, I'd like to spend some quality time with my girlfriend before we go and get ourselves beat up again." He grinned and glanced at Anabelle before waiting for Ernie to respond.
*** The other guard returned with a girl at his side. Aaron raised an eyebrow, "You must be a half-blood. Who are you?" The girl gave an innocent smile and said, "I'm Bianca. Bianca Waverly. I'm a daughter of...well...I'm a daughter of Pluto." Aaron's mouth fell open and the guard tensed up beside Bianca. Aaron shook himself and then said, "You...are you sure? There's not very many children of Pluto out there." Bianca gave a smirk, "Yeah, I'm sure." The guard turned to Aaron, "Sir, would you like me to take her to the praetors?" Aaron shook his head, "No, you stay here and finish up the patrol with the others, I'll take her." The son of Pluto approached the daughter of Pluto cautiously before he grabbed her arm and dragged her in the direction of the infirmary rather than the praetor-centurion meeting. This had to be Cory's doing.

Ernie nodded and put his hands up. "By all means, go for it. I'll try to find my replacement...and I have a meeting.." He nodded to both of them and exited the infirmary quickly, glancing at the two people coming in. He paid no attention to them and ran off to the meeting.

Cory grinned as Ernie left and then turned to Anabelle, his gaze soft as he pulled her into the cot with him, "You need sleep, and don't try to deny it. I see it in your eyes, you're exhausted." He wrapped his arm around her waist and put his head on the top of hers. He covered her with the sheets and entwined his other hand with her's. He'd never been this comfortable in his whole life, especially not with a girl.
(For now, I want to wait for Anabelle to post here to move on.)

A grin appeared in her face as she looked back at him. She watched Ernie leave then looked back at Cory. She was about to insist that she was fine, that she didn't need to rest, but stopped as he continued speaking. She was tired, she realized, more than she was really admitting. She softly smiled. "Ok." She rested her head on his shoulder and leaned into him. Cory was the first boyfriend she'd ever had. She'd never felt this way about anyone else. She felt him wrap the sheets around her and slip his hand into hers. She closed her eyes, and within moments, her breathing evened out as she fell asleep in Cory's arms.

Cory smiled as her breathing slowed and he felt her go limp in his arms. He closed his eyes and then gave her a kiss on the forehead before Aaron came in dragging a girl, his eyes were furious, but when he saw Anabelle sleeping they seemed to soften and he whispered angrily, "What's the meaning of this, Cory? Meet Bianca Waverly, daughter of Pluto. Pluto! Last I checked, I was the only one in New Rome other than Levesque who was related to Pluto. What did you do?"
Cory didn't flinch and he just stared at Aaron before snapping back quietly, careful not to disturb Anabelle, "Why does it always have to be about me? You know, you have a brother with dark powers, maybe you should look to him!"
Aaron just scoffed and then looked back at Bianca, "Come with me, we'll introduce you to the praetors and get everything sorted out. By the way, I'm Aaron Pontius. Your half brother." Aaron stormed out and Bianca just glanced back at Cory with a small, knowing smirk before following Aaron. Cory narrowed his navy eyes but shrugged it off, right now his world was all about Anabelle. He looked at the clock and smiled, there was only about a month left until their one year anniversary, and nothing was going to stop him from making it the best day of their lives.

Anabelle stirred slightly at the voices but she didn't wake up. Her dreams were all of Cory and a soft smile played upon her face. She subconsciously moved her free arm around Cory's stomach and she held his hand a little tighter, the look on her face remaining the same. She loved him more than anything and couldn't imagine a world without him.

Cory smiled as Anabelle reached over his stomach. He squeezed her waist slightly before resting his cheek on her head. He was far from wanting to sleep, so he just sat there in the warmth and comfort if the girl he loved. He would face the gods themselves to make her happy because her smile is all he would ever need to live. She kissed her head again then stared placing teasing and playful kisses all over her face and neck, hoping to get a smile from her sleepy form. He watched her patiently a white smile on his face, a rare thing to behold as real smiles from the son of Nyx were hard to pull from him. None the less, the daughter of Athena laying beside him could do that to him, she could melt his steely heart in an instant. He continued kissing her playfully, not wanting to wake her, but at the same time hoping she'd wake up so he could actually kiss her.

A happy, contented smile lit up in her face as Cory kissed her. She felt warm and safe sleeping in his arms. Nothing ever seemed to scare her when Cory was around. Nobody had or ever would make her feel the way Cory did.
She slept or a while longer and it was one of the best naps she'd had in a long time. She began to stir a little, her eyes slowly beginning to blink open. It took her a second to remember where she was, and she smiled again feeling Cory by her. Almost by instinct, she tilted her head back a little to kiss him.

The dirty-blonde teen smiled and dipped his head down, adjusting his body slightly so he was laying on his side and facing her, although his arms were still wrapped contently around her waist. He pulled her close to him and rested his lips on her's. he smiled into the kiss and brought one of his hands up to her head and ran his hands through her wavy hair as his lips moved in sink with hers. He felt only electricity when he touched her, and fireworks when they kissed.

When she was with Cory, it was like the rest of the world fell away. She forgot about anything and everything except for him. She had used to wonder, why her? There were tons of other girls he could have chosen, yet he had picked her. Now though, she didn't care why. She was his, he was hers, that was all that mattered to her. She smiled softly as he pulled her close, loving the feeling as he ran his hands through her hair as they kissed.
(np, where are we going from here?)

Cory pulled away from his girlfriend when he heard someone clear their throat. It was some child of Apollo, maybe 14 years old. The kid was blushing furiously, matching Cory's ears, as he said, "Uhm...Cory, the doc says your free to go, but try not to push yourself too hard. No massive power usage until you've fully regained your strength. Praetor Logan has a temporary room for you and..." Cory smirked and said, "Anabelle." The boy blushed again, "Right. He has a temporary room being prepared for you and Anabelle in New Rome down a few blocks, would you like an escort?"
Cory chuckled slightly, his ears still bright red as he said "Um, no, I think we got it. I've been here quite a few times, I know my way around." The son of Apollo bowed slightly and then left. Cory turned to Anabelle and gave a cheeky grin, "You want to continue what we were doing or should we actually get up and be productive?"
