She felt dead.

Y/N was lying on the floor of a small room inside the ship. She was trying to keep herself awake, like she had been doing for the past few days, and also trying not to throw up.

Y/N spent the last hour staring at the roof and thinking of how she lied to her friends. 

Again.

Well, she didn't lie. 

She only avoided the truth. 

Only a little.

She knew this would turn into a habit but it's not like she cares. Or maybe she does. Y/N thinks that the fact that she thinks of her family issues constantly is actually because she cares.

Unlike other times, Y/N was lucky to be tired from shadow travelling a lot. Because if that wasn't the case, avoiding her friends when they left the island would've been difficult. They were asking questions in a non-stop way. But she understands them. If she were them and she had a friend who could do the things she could, she would've reacted the same.

But she isn't them. 

And she doesn't have a friend with those abilities. 

Or a friend with Nyx as a mother.

She wondered when all her life depended on her mother and who she was. Maybe if her father never talked about her... 

Or maybe if she never asked his father to talk about her... 

Maybe if those things never happened, she would live a normal life...

"But that's only wishful thinking," She breathed.

She didn't know how much time had passed since she left her friends alone to discuss some things. She is still thinking of what she can tell them about her powers, but nothing comes to her mind. Y/N really wanted to stop lying to them. But she doesn't know how to do that.

Y/N sighed and stood, helping herself up with a barrel so she wouldn't fall. She might look better but she still feels awful.

Y/N walked out to the dock. Her friends were still there, but they weren't talking to each other. They seemed comfortable around each other.

Even Percy and Daniel.

Then she noticed that they were just tired. Maybe it was because of what happened on the island. Or perhaps it was because it was already nighttime. Y/N smiled a little.
