I opened my suitecase and stared at it's contents. Soon, Percy and I will be off to Camp-Halfblood, and deep down I know that he knows that something amiss is going on. I just wish that he knew that he could talk to me about how he was feeling. I refold my clothes and stare at them deep in thought , lost in the possibilities of what could or woupd happen if I told him the thruth now.

Exhaling through my nose , I looked in Percy's direction and tried to push the queesy feeling in my stomach away. "Percy, I have to tell you something. It's about the secret that I told you."

Percy's head snapped in my direction so fast that it shocked and both concerned me." About the camp?"

All I could do was stare at him blankly. It seemed as though I was fearless in life with everything else except for the things that I cared about. Especially when it came to Perseus Achilles Jackson.

"Yes. Your going to learn so much there. Some of it is just really cool life skills amd others can protect you in certain scenearios."

I'm such a coward. But I couldn't ruin his bliss before , still can't do it now.

Percy smiled and watched me close the suitcase. "You really like this camp , huh?"

"Love it. It's like home away from home. You'll fit in fine."

"Me fit in somewhere? That's a given."

I smiled and caught his eyes."So take."

"Percy, Y/n?"

Our heads snapped in the direction of the door just as it opened to reveal Sally Jackson.

I squealed and ran over to her , burying my face in her stomach. I remember the first time she hugged me and my heart is filled with joy. "Sally, your home. You look so beautiful!"

And she did, brown hair up in a simple bun , blue eyes shining with kindness and love as she stared at me and Percy. She smiled and kissed my nose."Thank you , honey."

She kissed my head and moved to kiss Percy's as well. "You both have grown so much!"

Her red-white-and-blue Sweet on America uniform smelled of the best things in the world: chocolate ,licorice.
And all the other stuff that she sold at the candy shop in Grand Central. I nuzzled into her more and smelled her shirt. It was relief compared to the scandolous smell of this room. If Pheobe was here, she'd lose her mind.

"You smell like what I imagine Mr Wonka's chocolate factory to smell like."

Sally chuckled, and all my stress disappeared. Magic worker, she is!

They sat the edge of the bed together while I sat comfortably on the ground. I munched on the blue and pink sour power candies that she brought, Percy attacking his blue berry sour strings. Sally ran her hand through Perc's hair and demanded to know everything that had happened to us that we hadn't put in our letters.

Perc caught my eye from his position on the bed and I slowly shook my head, humming a tone to make it look like I was vibing to a song.

Sally didn't seem to really care that we got expelled. But was her little boy okay? was her favourite daughter okay? Are her little ones alright?
