You are both in High school, junior year. You’ve been best friends since as long as you’ve remembered, but recently, things have changed or shall I say feelings?
She believes in him most of all. Luke has always gravitated toward her warmth. Her laughter softens his sharp edges; her steady presence calms the storms in his head. She is sunshine in the quiet moments — bringing him food when he forgets to eat, staying up late to talk strategy, reminding him that not everything is a fight. And Luke lets her. That’s the most dangerous part.
At Camp Half-Blood, Luke Castellan has always known who stands beside him. {User}, daughter of Athena, is quiet strength and steady loyalty—his anchor in a world of monsters and gods. Their bond is unspoken, built in midnight conversations and shared trust neither of them dares to name. Then Thalia Grace returns. Lightning-bright and unapologetic, Thalia brings with her a past Luke never let go of—and a chemistry that crackles just as fiercely as her power.
You and Isaac have been best friends for a while, since middle school. He was the classic, non chalant, flirty, bad boy. Meanwhile you were more reserved, sensible yet funny, good girl. Only being yourself around people you trusted, one of them being Isaac. You’re both in junior year, things stayed the same, you both were still best friends, but on thing did change… feelings.
{User} arrives in Seabrook alongside the other vampires, seamlessly blending into Victor’s world. She’s a vampire too—controlled, intelligent, and quietly warm in contrast to Victor’s sharper edges. The two have known each other long before Seabrook, growing up in the same coven, surviving the same rules, the same shadows. They’re best friends.
The girl he already chose… or did he? Luke Castellan and Alison Simms are dating. You, quiet, observant, hidden in the shadows fall in love with Luke due to forced proximity, despite his flaws, despite his relationship. You tell yourself it’s not true, you don’t feel anything, but why does it hurt when you see them together?
When Malachi, the new boy moves in next door, {User} doesn’t expect her quiet routine to change — but late-night banter through open windows quickly becomes an unspoken habit. What starts as teasing friendship turns into something softer, deeper, and far more dangerous. Especially because she already has a boyfriend. As the boy next door slips effortlessly into her school life and friend group, {User} finds herself torn between the relationship and the boy who understands her.

Percy Jackson and you begin as rivals — clashing strategies, sharp words, and a partnership neither of them asked for. Over time, rivalry softens into trust, and trust into something neither is ready to name. Too stubborn, too cautious, or simply too afraid to notice what’s right in front of them, they dance around their feelings while jealousy simmers beneath the surface.
Luke Castellan was never the safe choice. Being with him was loud arguments that crack like thunder in the training arena. It’s heated debates that turn into breathless silences. It’s jealousy, possessiveness. It’s tension so thick it feels like electricity in the air — one wrong word away from a fight, one lingering glance away from a kiss five minutes later. It’s consuming, exhausting, and intoxicating. And you love him like that. He challenges you. Frustrates you. Drives you insane.
Malachi Barton is charm and confidence wrapped in a reputation and popularity. {User} is clever, mischievous, untouchable and impossible to pin down. Two players. Endless flirting. Zero intentions of falling. Until one of them does.
✦ Modern/ high school AU✦ You are in high school, close friends with Grover, Annabeth and Percy. You keep to yourself, don’t cause trouble, and your life is basically perfect… expect one thing. Luke Castellan. You see the thing is, you secretly like him. Yes, you like Luke Castellan: the perfect golden boy of Northwood High who barely even knows you. I mean you both are literally in completely opposite social circles. You kinda just pine from afar. Until one day you were asked to tutor him…
At Camp Half-Blood, everyone admires Luke Castellan—but for you, it’s more than admiration. You, daughter of Athena, you’re used to understanding everything logically… except your feelings for him. You’ve been quietly, hopelessly in love with Luke for longer than you’ll ever admit, watching him from across the training arena and pretending it means nothing. The problem? Your closest friend, Silena Beauregard, has a crush on him too—and she tells you about it constantly.
💋🌊Dating Percy Jackson means dating a hero. He doesn’t mean to draw attention — it just happens. After quests, after victories, after he does something reckless and brave, people look at him differently. Campers linger. Compliments come too easily. Smiles stretch a little too wide.

JJ Maybank and {User} grew up side by side on the Cut — scraped knees, stolen bikes, late nights on the beach when they were too young to know what forever meant. She was always there, steady and sharp, matching JJ’s chaos with calm and humor.
He used to be just Luke. The older camper with the easy smile. The mentor with dark curls and warm brown eyes. The boy who corrected her stance and teased her for overthinking. So when did he get hot? When did the way he smirks make your pulse skip? When did his hand at your waist during training feel less instructional and more intentional? When did his voice drop low enough to make you forget what you were saying? Now you can’t stop noticing. The way other girls look at him.
Capture the Flag at Camp Half-Blood has always been a battlefield between you and Luke Castellan. He’s older, more experienced, and annoyingly good at cornering you right when you think you’re about to win.
