R E M O R S E

(percy's pov)

I had spent the whole night thinking of ways to make it up for y/n. She meant the world me and the slightest chance I had with her, I ruined it. I knew she didn't forgive easily so I had to make this big.

I woke up extra early and had given Piper a note I had written for y/n.

"Meet me at my cabin as soon as you wake up."

Piper nodded and shooed me out. I went back to my back and I finished decorating for the surprise, I sat back and admired my handiwork.  Everything looked exactly as I had hoped and even better.  The flowers that I had chosen for her, the cookies that I knew were her favorite, and the chocolates were all ready to make her feel special.  I was so excited for her to see everything that I had prepared and I couldn't wait for her to walk in and be able to forgive me.

I was waiting nervously by the door, eager to see her reaction and hoping that she liked everything.  I was also nervous about our conversation from last night and I hoped that she would give me another chance to explain myself.  I took a few deep breaths and nervously glanced at my watch to see when she would show up.

It was already past 7:45 and she still wasn't here.  The longer I waited, the more nervous I became. My mind began to wonder and I started to worry that she wasn't going to show up at all.  I kept hoping and wishing that she would finally arrive soon so I could finally see and talk to her again.

I look around to see if she was coming from any other direction and nothing. Until I saw her walking straight towards me and she looked so damn beautiful.

I started to wonder if she would be angry with me or if she would want to hear what I had to say.  She always looked pretty and gorgeous but today she looked especially breathtaking.  Just looking at her made my heart skip a beat.

"Good morning y/n. I am truly sorry for my actions and the hurt they have caused you. I realize now that I was wrong and I deeply regret my behavior. It was never my intention to hurt you or make you feel this way. You mean the world to me, and seeing you upset breaks my heart. I'm sorry for breaking your trust and believing that I had justification for my actions. Please forgive me."

"I don't know.. i'm still hurt." she said

I licked my lips nervously

"Please, come inside."

Her simple response left me a little bit devastated but I could understand where she was coming from.  Everything that has happened last night had been such a mess and I could understand her hurt and anger.  But I was hopeful that through our talk, we would be able to move past it.  I nodded my head and followed her inside, eagerly and nervously.

As she walked inside and took in all the decorations, I felt proud.  A smile grew across her face. I was happy that I was able to put a smile on her face, at least momentarily.  I watched her smile and I couldn't help but feel myself ease up a little bit

I was slowly starting to regain my confidence back and I felt like this was just the beginning of our reconciliation.  I was still hurt by everything that had happened last night, but I felt like our relationship was starting to heal.  Being around her made me feel comfortable and it made all the worry and dread go away

I took another step forward, towards her, and I took her hands into mine.  I couldn't help but notice how beautiful her eyes were and how soft her skin felt.  It was like all my worries and my fear were dissolving away as I held her hands and looked straight into her eyes.

The closeness that I felt with her made my heart speed up and it made me feel so happy.  I couldn't explain it but being this close to her made me feel a type of way that almost no other girl had been able to make me feel.  I felt like I was falling for her all over again, and with the way that she was looking at me right now I felt like she was falling for me too
