I found my way up to our camp. At least I tried. You never know if the god of chaos and madness shows up to help you, but at least I tried. And, at least, if he didn't show up and we were all doomed, I scored a kiss from Apollo. I thought of Ariadne. She became a goddess because the god of ecstasy and madness and chaos loved her to bits. I didn't know how I felt about that. I remembered how herr Linckens had wondered if she actually loved him back. Now I was convinced that she did, but to me it felt weird someone would willingly marry the god of all crazy. But on the other hand, I was also convinced that I had really fallen in love with the god of music and oracles. So maybe love really was blind. What would I be the god of if I was made immortal? I was shocked of that thought. That was never going to happen. Apollo doesn't like me that much, obviously. Or did he?
                          
Ray! Raya! How did it go? Tamara ran up to me. I forced a smile on my face. She is going to ask. Of course we are talking about the god of all crazy, but I think we might have a chance. Is the rest okay? Tamara nodded. Yes, they are okay. So, Now we have to wait until the gods show up. Was Ariadne alright? Yes, I said. She was pretty nice. Maybe she knew what we were going through. We giggled and walked further back to camp.
                          
A few days later, Artemis and Apollo walked into camp. Apollo looked around. So, did you-know-who show up? He looked smug. I grinned back. Not yet, I said. He will come, just you wait. Apollo laughed. Nope. He isn't, he said. Than he grabbed my shoulders and pressed a kiss on my mouth. I happily went with it. Kissing Apollo is never bad. I heard the rest of the camp gasp. Tamara screeched. I have to say, maybe I got a little to into it. It was a great kiss. So, Apollo. See you got a new lover. I recognized the voice. It was the voice of a young lady. I pulled away from Apollo. On the side of the camp stood Ariadne, with her husband. I smiled and looked back at Apollo. I told you so, I whispered. I pulled him back in and kissed him again. Tamara screeched like a little girl. Rose turned away, her face flushed completely red. I didn't care. I mean, it was a great kiss. That's really important. 
                          
When we pulled apart, the new people had sat down and Rose had started to make dinner. We joined them. I sat down between Apollo and Tamara. I caught Dionysus eye. Thank you, I mouthed. He glanced at me with a look in his eyes that said a million things. I smiled and turned my glance towards Apollo. He looked super handsome. I felt love in my entire body. It felt great.
