Broken, Not Shattered

Good Intentions, Bad Results.

A/N: OMG! Two updates in 24 hours!! Guys, it's a flipping miracle.

~Percy's POV~ (A/N: Thus commences the possible only Percy chapter for the entire book! I can't write Percy chapters so.....)

"Annie-"

"Don't call me 'Annie'!" This comment is completed with a quick slap to my head (think Gibbs and Dinozzo)

"Fine. Do you know what's wrong with your sister? I mean, Nate's been flipping out every minute he's not with her. He's super jumpy. And no offense to Erin, but she looks worse then Nico!" Annabeth nods at my remarks.

"I know. She's still up when I go to bed and awake before I'm up. Percy, I don't think she sleeps at all. Maybe you can talk to Nate and see if there's anything we can do."

"That sounds okay. I'll be back, Wisegirl!"

---------Time Skip----------

I see Nate mutilating a training dummy in the arena.

"Hey! Nate, give the dummy a breather. I want to talk." He nods, running a hand through his hair.

"What do you want? I swear if this is another one of your idiotic questions-"

"No I actually want to talk." I respond.

"Back to the cabin?" Nate asks.

"Well, we can talk on our way over."

"Sure. What do you want?" We begin walking to Cabin 3.

"Annabeth and I were talking, Erin....she doesn't seem too...happy. She apparently hasn't been sleeping and I guess we want to know if we can help her in any way." Nate stops waking and turns around to face me.

"Look. I know you want to look out for her, but there's nothing YOU can do. Erin doesn't trust you, and you don't even know her. Just, let me handle this, okay?" With that, my normally level-headed half-border storms away. Maybe we were being too nosy, I should make it up to him. I'll ask Chiron if we can have a game night in our cabin with the others. Nate and I need to be in good terms before we can try to help his girlfriend. Whatever Nate wants, I'm not following his orders. Something's up with Erin, she's my brother's girlfriend and I'm going to figure it out. Even if it ruins our newfound brotherly relationship.

A/N: Sucky chapter 2.0. That's all I have to say.

I do however have a question: What are you guys doing for Valentine's Day?

I'm hanging with my friends the day before, then going out for dinner with Nate on the actual day (it was either this, or staying home.....easy choice, huh?❤️)
