1. Nancy's Blank Slate
Reason: Boy, Romance
2. Nancy, Looking for a Friend to Kill For...Or With
Guy, Friendship
I met Percy Jackson hunting in the forest. He accidently killed what I was trying to kill. I confronted him and the minute I looked in his eyes, I instantly feel for him but the minute we started to date and hang out, I didn't feel a connection with him. So, now I think I would like a guy just as a friend. I don't think I'm ready for a relationship as I thought I was.
