Jackson paced around the cabin. He was thinking about Prom. He didn't really know if Amelia and him were really a couple. They had only met weeks ago. He made the decision of asking Amelia to the Prom, just for the heck of asking. But...he didn't really know how to word it.

Amelia was going to do it. She was going to ask Jackson to the dance. Sure, maybe their relationship had moved rather quickly, and that they'd only just started dating, but Amelia really liked him. She could be herself, she didn't have to worry about anything, and he was always there if she needed him.
She did one last check of herself, making sure her hair didn't look awful, and that she at least looked presentable. It wasn't like she was a daughter of Aphrodite, because she was only checking. She didn't want to look like she was about to go to a black tie event. She just wanted to not look bad.
She stepped out of her cabin, and inhaled the fresh air. That definitely might help her. She had been working up the courage to do what she was about to do for the last two hours. Thinking of how to say it, when to say it, and how to act if he said no. There was still a possibility he would say no, even if they were dating.
She approached the Hades cabin, her blonde hair in a high ponytail and swinging rhythmically as she took each step. 'Here goes nothing,' she told herself as she stood in the entrance.
"Knock, knock," she said with a smile as she knocked her knuckles twice on the wood. "Can I come in?"

Jackson's gray eyes locked on the door. He heard a voice asking if they could come in. It was Amelia. Before he even thought about replying, he fixed his hair with his fingers and dusted off his clothes. Once he looked "presentable" he opened the door of his cabin. There stood Amelia. He smiled at the sight of her. "Hey there, Smarty pants." He greeted.

Amelia rocked back and forth on her feet until the cabin door opened. Her smile widened and her blueish-grey eyes lit up. Jackson. He was too good for her. She was so lucky that things had been going well. They could've so easily gone awry, especially when you add someone completely and utterly average like Amelia.
She laughed at his greeting. That was so cute! She resisted the urge to take a strand of her blonde hair and twirl it. That was something the idiot Aphrodite girls were notorious for. They'd just stand there, obnoxiously smacking their gum, twirling their hair, asking if it really was necessary for them to work. She needed to play it cool; to not look like a total idiot.
"Hi," she said sweetly. "I'd give you a nickname, but you'd probably barf from the sweetness of it." 'Real smooth, Amelia, she yelled at herself in her mind. 'Real smooth.' So she had probably just failed her mission to not look stupid, but oh well. She was still with the cutest guy at camp.

Jackson shrugged. "It's your choice. I'd really like one." He'd been called a lot of things, like Zombie Dude, Living Dead, even blondie. He smiled at Amelia. She wasn't like the other girls. She was different in some sort of way. He couldn't put his finger on it. Jackson didn't know what else to say. He stood there like an idiot, fiddling with his dream catcher necklace. He blushed and finally said something, "Won't you come in?"

Amelia thought for a moment, before saying with a giggle, "Okay, I'll call you muffin." She wasn't entirely sure how she'd thought of that, and it wasn't exactly the best pet name ever, but oh well. She liked muffins, and she liked him. So why not call him muffin?
She smiled back at him, and stepped inside when he invited her in. She stepped forward to kiss him on the cheek, and her stomach was twisting itself into a thousand knots. She needed to just get what she came to do over with, so she could stop being miserable. Of course she wasn't letting her misery show. Her eyes were still bright and alert, and her smile was still in place.
"So what do you think of the prom idea?" Amelia asked him casually, looking at his face to see his expression when he responded. You could tell a lot about how a person felt about a subject by how he responded. If he seemed interested, she'd ask him to the dance, if he didn't, she wouldn't, and she'd make up some lame excuse as to why she came over there.

Jackson laughed at the name. "Ha, muffin? Okay, I can go with that." Once inside, he casually glanced around the cabin. He wasn't really tuned in, until Amelia asked her question. He looked up at her and smiled. "Actually, I was thinking about something...would you like to go to the prom with me?"

Cory walked in, sweat dripping on his face, he needed higher meds. He took out four pills, filled and black glass with Styx water and swallowed them. He then threw a drachma into the fountain and said, "Oh Iris, connect me to Erebus and Nyx." He waited a few moments until the split screen appeared and the two gods looked at him. Nyx smiled, "Hello Cory, what do you need son?" Erebus just looked sourly at Cory, as he was angry Nyx had a kid with Uranus again. Cory looked at Erebus, not Nyx and he yelled, "I need ol' Erebus here to give me a higher docage on my pills. Or you two can both give me the right ones this time!" Erebus rolled his eyes, "Why should I help you? After all, I bet you or Aaron Pontius will be fighting our son soon." Nyx gave a sour face, "Oh come now Erebus, honey, its not like Cory is going to kill him. Hades will decide when Eli's time is." Erebus looked at Cory, his firey eyes filled with resentment and he said, "Very well, halfling. I will give you the right antidote if you do a favor for me." Cory nodded and scowled slightly, "I'm listening." Erebus laughed, "Good. Your ally, Aaron. When he came to the Underworld he took something from me, a ring of power. I want you to get it back for me, or you can send him back to Roman territory where he belongs." Please throw in another coin, message will dissolve in 10...9... Cory yelled back at him, "No! I can't separate Aaron and Nicki, or just Aaron from the Greeks, he has friends here!" 6...5... Nyx sighed, "Do what he says, son, or you won't survive this." Erebus chuckled, "Yes, listen to your mother, now go and do my work for me, or you will not live a day without your antidote. Goodbye, Cory Jason." This message is now disconnected. The mist dissolved and Cory sat there, completely unsure of what to do.

Jay walked into the cabin, his only bed had been occupied. Belongings sprawled across the cabin. "That's right...I was never at camp when Jackson came..." Jay chucked his small back down onto the ground and rolled out his sleeping bag. He rolled up some spare clothes and made it into a pillow. "More comfortable than it was in Erebus..." he muttered and sighed at his mis-fortune. the work he'd put into his cabin erased by the new comer.

Jackson walked into the cabin. He wore black jeans, a gray t-shirt, black denim jacket and white converses. He brushed his blond hair out of his eyes to see Cory and another boy. He raised an eyebrow. "Hello? Are you a new camper or...?" He heard about another Hades boy, but that's it. He glanced at Cory, then back to the boy. "Oh, you must be Jerez- or Jay. I'm Jackson."

Cory quickly turned and said, "Ah, yeah this is Jay Hawke, Son of Hades. He's your brother. I'll go ask Chiron if he can bring in a few extra bunks, Aaron hasn't been sleeping in here, like he should be. I have no idea what he does instead of sleep." He turned to walk out, "I'll see you guys later..." He jogged out before they could stop him. A few minutes later Chiron walked in, the bunks being carried by campers behind him and he smiled, "Hello again Jay. Welcome back to camp. I've brought your stuff with me as well as the extra bunks. Parker, Jackson, Aaron, and Cory are your bunk mates...we haven't had time to make the other cabins lately, but while Percy is here, might as well put him to use eh?" He chuckled, "Have a good time rearranging your cabin." The campers set the stuff down and Chiron put Jay's stuff on one of the bunks.

Jay stretched his hand out to meet Jackson "Nice to meet you. No I'm not new in fact this will be my 6th year" Jay smiled, "Here since I was 10." Jay smiled as Chiron walked in bringing a bed and some of his old things in for him. "Thanks Chiron, That's good of you. Speaking of Percy, where is he? I think I'm going to have a little chat about a peculiar demigod I met."

Chiron looked at him, "Poseidon's cabin, or the arena. I'd check the arena first."

Jackson nodded. "This is my 2nd. Been here since I was 14." He glanced around the cabin. "While your gone, I'll move things around."
