LUKE POV
Percy has been out for a week . Some say he is as dead as a doornail. I say he is as dead as you and I . He's not . Well maybe inside , I don't know about you . This is torture , so entirely painful. It's a waiting game. It's…. It's over . I can go in and see my precious percy . When I walk in , I rush over and hug him . I smell him , I feel him , I check his temperature and that he is alive and not some dead copy . I pull away from him and he gives me an odd look . I say " Just checking" to which he smiles radiantly. God , he is so beautiful .
As we walked out into the glistening sun , which seemed to mock me , it suddenly became a whole lot colder . Crash went into the woods . Percy looked over and asked what it was for. I take his hand in mine and say grimly " for the pyres " . He covers his hand with his mouth and bursts into tears . I pull him to me and he looks up at me and I say softly " Hush it's ok they died a hero's death , they are in the elysium right now " He looks at me and starts rambling . " No it is not ok they died for no reason I should have called it off and surrendered and besides you were taken ------- " . I kiss him on the mouth .
We break apart and he says " oh" before running towards his cabin . I curse in Greek . I definitely went too far and definitely at the wrong time. Didn't I ? As I walk in the direction of my own cabin a couple of guys look at me . Whether that is love or hate I don't know and I don't care. I go into my cabin , sit on my bed and scream in frustration . I definitely messed up .
8 HOURS LATER
I take a seat in the overcrowded amphitheatre . it was tragically silent. We were all pitifully subdued . . hope has deserted us . faith was gone. Why, though ? The war is over . because the people they loved are dead . The pyres are being lit . they begin to read out the names . I could see the grim sadness on everyone’s faces , especially Percy's . I could hear the crackling of the fires , I could smell the fire , I could taste that ash on my lips , the bench beneath me was hot . it was tragically silent. We were pitifully subdued . hope has deserted us . faith was gone . Then Percy stood up , our shining beacon of light . “ beautiful “ . I exclaimed , receiving some odd stares and some knowing looks . beautiful . But could he ever be mine ? A question not even Rachel can answer .
Percy raised his head and said " I don't want to seem cruel , arrogant or selfish but I am . I was cruel, arrogant and selfish and I am sorry " . There were some confused looks but Percy soon showed his light " I am sorry because I could not save them and I am so so sorry . The whole of today was spent wondering where I went wrong and how I could have done things differently . i am sorry “ and he broke down sobbing and my heart felt as if it was being torn out and then torn into pieces .
I rushed into the centre where my beautiful , shining and broken percy was . i spotted nico and will doing the same . Similar thoughts were probably going through their head . All eyes were on us . Staring with their tearful eyes wondering what is going on . Once we got down there , will lifted percy to his feet, nico held one hand and me the other and we hugged . All 4 of us . I shouted " Our hero " the crowd echoed " our hero "
