"Wow" Thalia muttered. Apollo Is hot." "He's the sun god," I said. "That's not what I meant.

You have to string this guy along.' And I'm just like, 'No! I won't! I just want to go on the date!' It's a nightmare - I definitely haven't figured it out yet.

There would be his willingness to bestow upon me the power to reassure him. He would trust me with his happiness.
