S O L I T U D E

(y/n's pov)

At the words of Chiron I suddenly felt my heart drop even further. Luke wanted my life? Why? What could he possibly want from me to the point of wanting to take my life? I had never felt so confused before and I was wondering what I had possibly done to make Luke hate me so much that he would want my life. Even Annabeth had been surprised by this news and she seemed to agree with Chiron about the fact that I should stay in my cabin alone.

Percy followed me to my cabin because of the obvious fact that I had to stay safe. Percy opened my cabin door and motioned me inside.

"I'm not leaving you this time love."

This one sentence had the same effect on me as the word love did. It made me feel some sort of comfort and security. I looked over at you with a warm smile and I couldn't help but feel a bit grateful that you were going to be here with me.

Percy closes the door behind him and locks it. Percy immediately starts exploring the cabin.

The cabin was simple but homey. There wasn't much to explore, but the little space that we had was comfortable and welcoming.

It was obvious that this was a room designed by a girl who liked cute things. The soft and feminine aesthetic in this room was very relaxing. The plushies on the bed and the cute accessories littered around the room made the atmosphere feel much more homey. And the pictures of animals on the wall definitely added to that vibe. It seemed as if no one could make this girl unhappy when she was surrounded by adorable animals and pretty things.

"It's so girly in here" Percy said teasingly

I laughed at him and just rolled my eyes

I was definitely getting more comfortable with the idea that I had to stay with Percy in cabin for the next couple of weeks.

"Percy?" I asked

Percy turns his attention to me

"Yes?"

Percy looked so cute and adorable when he looked at me with his soft and warm expression. I liked the way his eyes looked so soft. In this moment, I just wanted to pull him into my arms and kiss him. I wanted to embrace him like I had never embraced anyone before. I wanted to show him that I could be his protector, that even though he was powerful on his own, he didn't have to fight Luke alone. I wanted to be by his side throughout this whole mess.

"Can you braid my hair?"

Percy's face lit up and jumping in excitement towards me

I kneeled down and I sat down on the floor so Percy could sit on my bed and braid my hair. I felt percy's fingers run through my hair. I taught him how to braid when we were 11, took him so long to figure out. We watched countless tutorials and he didn't get it until we were 12. He finished off the braid with a pink ribbon I had handed him.

"It looks beautiful, you're getting better. Thanks." I said while looking into the mirror

"You look beautiful."

I turn my body and smile at him. I walk towards him and give him a kiss on the cheek.

Percy laughed as if he was offended

"That's it?" He said teasingly and attacked me with more kisses

I noticed someone was knocking; once again

"I can't have anything." I said throwing my hands up in the air with frustration

Percy opened the door slowly; Grover

"Annabeth wants to speak to you."

"Right now? I'm with Y/n."

"Yea. Seems pretty urgent."

"Ok. I'll be right there." Percy said shutting the door

"I'm sorry, I'll be back."

I sighed and nodded in disappointment.

Percy headed out the door and I lock it as soon as he left.

What's with Annabeth? Does he even love me? Am I being using? My overthinking was eating away at me and I felt as if Percy would go for Annabeth if he has the chance.

I just needed to clear my head. I took out my journal and wrote down everything I felt. Everything including what I thought about Percy. My true and raw feelings. I couldn't help but slightly cry at the thought of Percy and Annabeth. She was so pretty, she has everything I don't and more.

I put my pen down and walked over towards my window; wanting to look at the sunset. You look so pretty today dad. He always created the best sunsets and sunrises. He use to paint them and hang them in my room. I will forever cherish those paintings.

I glanced around and to my surprise, I spotted Percy with Annabeth sitting next to each other; she had her head on his shoulder. Just when I thought he was genuine. With the girl I was worried about most. My heart sunk to my feet and I could feel tears coming from my eyes. I decided to wipe them right off my cheek. I wasn't going to cry over Percy. If he wanted Annabeth; fine. I'm not going to stop him. I just hope he made the right decision. He was never mine to begin with. The thing that hurt me most was that he promised me.

Percy had changed a lot over these past few weeks. It was starting to scare me. I'm not sure if he's the same guy I fell in love with. I've had a hard time adjusting to him. I just wanted him to know how much I liked him. The Percy I knew wouldn't play with my feelings like this. But it sure felt like it now.
