A few days had passed since Percy came to the camp. He didn't speak to me at all he would just talk to Luke. But I honestly didn't care I gave him a chance and he blew it. While Annabeth would give me a death glare everytime she saw me. I still don't know what did I do to her but she started following me again. Today was capture the flag. Luke and I were getting ready in the armoury. I had just finished putting everything on.
"You done?" I asked Luke.
"Not yet I have to put on the helmet." He went to put it but I stopped him. Taking it from his hands and putting it back on the desk beside us. I took his face in my hands. His cheeks were soft. I then kissed him slowly. He kissed back immediately. I pulled back after a while and connected our foreheads his face still in my hands. I cannot explain the tension between us everytime we connected our foreheads. Then I pulled away and put the helmet on his head.
"You're good now." I smiled. He was already smiling back.
"You're amazing." Luke said.
"I know." I nodded my head. I let out a laugh Luke did as well. We went outside with our fingers intertwined.
"I don't feel like playing capture the flag. Wanna ditch?" Luke asked.
"I don't want my cause of death to be Annabeth Chase." I stated knowing how crazy she was for that game.
"And what would you like your cause of death to be?" Luke asked.
"Myself." I said and looked forward. Luke stopped while stopping me as well. "I'm joking. I'm good now." I said remembering I once told Luke I've had suicidal thoughts since I was 11. I'm surprised he remembered that.
"Are you a hundred percent sure?" Luke asked with a worry written all over his face.
"Yes. And besides I promised you I'd tell you if they come back." I said.
"I don't want to ever lose you." Luke said seriously.
"You're not going to lose me. I promise." I said putting my hand on his left cheek. He leaned in my hand.
"You don't know what I'd do for you." Luke said. I smiled and kissed him gently again.
"We gotta go before Annabeth kills us." I said and took his hand and we started running.
"Heroes... it's time." We heard Chiron say so we hurried to our places. "The game begins. The first team to retrieve the opposing flag and return it across the river shall be the victor. As always, there will be no maiming and no killing. I trust these rules will be respected. Any magical items you may possess, are permitted as well. Every camper who is not injured"
"It's okay." Luke reassured Percy who was near us.
"Has to play. Let her rip. Prisoners may be disarmed...
"I still don't even know what my job is." Percy said. Oh he's going with Annabeth I had to do that as well in my first capture the flag.
"...but may not be bound or gagged.
"Maybe I won't even need a sword." Percy suggested.
"Let the games begin." Chiron said loudly. Everyone let out a battle cry.
"I'm gonna need a sword." Percy said.
"Yeah no shit Sherlock. But good luck. You'll need it." I said hitting the back of Percy's head. Annabeth and Missy walked towards us.
"We have 20 minutes before the second conch and game-on. You know what you're doing?" Annabeth said to us. Well more like to Luke but she gave me a serious look telling me to not mess anything up.
