the argo II

(Annabeth's pov, this takes place after tartarus)

Fear pulsed through my body as my vision blurred then went dark and a feeling of being surrounded but completely alone came over me. My panic built up as I heard devilish voices yelling in the distance and screams from percy being tormented.    

    I shot up in bed hyperventilating with tears running down my face. percy sat up and slid his arms around me and pulled me over to him.         

   " What's wrong wise girl? are you okay?" percy asked in a panic, looking me over as if to see if i was hurt.     I hugged him tightly and cried while he silently held me in his strong arms. After what felt like decades I calmed down enough to talk. 

" I-I-I dreamt about tartarus and all the horrible things that happened to you and -" I trailed off as sobs racked my body and percy clutched me tighter like he could hug all the sadness away.   

 "don't worry wise girl", percy said. " we're both here and we're doing fine, we will never go back to that horrible place okay."   "okay " I whispered into his chest taking deep breaths to calm myself down.  " Thank you percy, for being there for me, in tartarus and right now." I said "always wise girl, always." he whispered into my hair before we both drifted back off to sleep

And that was our promise to each other from that day forward, "Always"
