"Yeah, just follow me!" The server leads us to a table. I sat on the opposite end of the table from Grace. She was in a ribbed long sleeve shirt. It was tan? Cream? I'm not great at this describing thing. She had these wide legged blue jeans that looked very American Eagle, if that made sense? Not that that was a bad thing. It's not a bad store, I go there actually a lot for clothes. She had these uggs and wore these silver hoops. They weren't large hoops, like medium-sized. She also had her hair in a claw clip. She looked ok. I was just in jeans, panda dunks, and a navy button up with a white tee under. Nothing crazy, but I tried.

"Uh.. How are you?" Jeez, I do not know how to talk on a date. I am ok talking to fans, friends, but on dates? Kinda hard. "Good. You?" I shrug."I'm doing ok." "Why just ok? Is everything fine?" She raised a brow. "Yeah. It's fine. I meant like positive 'ok'."

"Oh." "Yeah."

Jesus, one of us needs to say something.

"Can I take your drinks?" Just in time. "Just water works for me." Grace says. "Same. Please."

Thank god the server came. I had nothing to save the conversation. "I'll come back in just a minute." The server smiled. I liked her smile. It looked awfully familiar.

Grace looked at the menu, which cued me to open mine. I scan it. Soups? No. Salads? Mm.. No. I look at the pasta section. Gnocchi sounds good. Just a tomato sauce with potato. Huh. Inner monologues are so cool when you think about it. Like, what do you mean I have a little buddy who talks in my head? That's pretty cool. My thoughts get cut short at hearing Holloway's voice.

"I think I'll get the Mushroom salad, but I don't know." "Ok."

I said. Just acknowledging her choice. Oh shit, does she want me to tell what I want? "I think I'm getting the gnocchi." She seemed to like this and nod.

"So... Whatcha' going to do at the premiere?" She asks. "Probably celebrate with my friends. It's been a lot of effort to work on it." She nods. "Yeah. You bringing anyone with you?" "Nope." I lied straight through my teeth. "You sure?" I nod along to what shes saying. "Yeah." "Yeah. I love Percy Jackson." My eyes widen a bit. "You do? You read the books?" Finally. A common interest. "Uh.. No. I watched the movies, since I have a celebrity crush on Logan Lerman. They were pretty good movies. And everything I know is from what you tell me."

I knit my brows. I am biased. I love Logan, but the movies were definitely a questionable part of Percy Jackson's history.

"Oh. The films were...patchy? They weren't exactly book accurate." She pursed her lips. "Ah. Yeah.. Oh! I just remembered what I found and started laughing at."

She opens her phone and shows me fanfics. "Serendipity" made by someone named cupidskarma? "Wired Autocomplete Interview" by _lovelessroses_? "Yours truly" by l0vlee_? These all sound kinda odd.

"Found out people write fanfictions about you. Some of them aren't that bad. A lot aren't accurate, but they are funny." Yeah, of course a lot will not be accurate. They don't know me. "Wait, you read them?" "Yeah. I was bored. I took screenshots of my favourite ones. Although fanfiction writing is cringe. So I just did my makeup while listening to them." She shrugged.

I honestly don't care about fanfictions. As long as they aren't like.. sexual then it's ok I guess. Weird, but you do you. "Oh." The server comes back with the water and flips open her notepad. Oh god this would take a while.

Me and Star have been driving for hours. By me, I mean my mom and dad. Me and Star were in the very back while Leena and Tanner were in the middle two seats. Our car seats 7, meaning 3 in the back, 2 in the middle, and 2 in the front. Apparently, me and Y/n napped with each other, but I recall none of that. Whatever, a nap is a nap. Doesn't mean anything. Now we were at the hotel unpacking. 3 beds. One for Leena and Y/n. One for me and Tanner. One for my parents.
