Storms and Shadows

Chapter 12: ..What happend to you...?

Grover's POV:

Y/n is Artemis' daughter.

ARTEMIS

I LOVE ARTEMIS, she's just so...wow...and she loves nature....wow....

 "Oh my gods, Y/n that was--" Annabeth starts but gets cut of by Y/n. "We should probably go, we can get a ticket for a train and get some sleep there." she says uncomfortably and grabs her backpack then walks away with her hands in her pockets.

"Y/n--" I start but she keps walking and Percy just boldly follows her without hesitation. "Wait so first he doesn't wanna save her and now he just follows her around?" I question. Annabeth just shrugs. "Weirdo."

Still, I can't help but think: 'Is there a reason Percy didn't let us stop her?'

Me and Annabeth then just start walking towards them.

3th person's POV:

When you guys get on the train, Annabeth and Grover set things up while Percy cleans your wounds.

"Percy it's fine I can handle it myself.." You say softly. "No, no, I'll do it." he say as he gently cleans the cut on the side of your forhead. You can't help but notice how gently he's being and stare at his hand/fingers while he's cleaning your wounds. He then let's go and starts to put some rubbing alcohol on the cotton pad and you watch his every move. He was gonna start cleaning your wound again but slightly hesitates and then stops.

"This can hurt a little." he says looking at you. "Don't worry about it." he nods and starts cleaning it again. He tries to be as gently as possible but you feel it tingle and scrunch your nose.

"Gods I'm so sorry." he says, taking his hand away. "No, no it's fine, really, almost didn't feel it." you say not wanting to admit it hurted. "Just--keep going.." you say softly as you gently take his hand.

"...Yeah.." He says looking at you. "I uhm...I'm gonna do the one on your cheek now.." he says softly as he keeps looing at you. "Yeah...cool..." You say watching how he puts rubbing alcohol on another cotton pad.

He slowly starts rubbing it on your cheek, maing sure he's extra gentle. You just stare at him gently caressing your cheek as his eyes are focused on your wound. You two just sit in silence with a slight tension between you two, as you feel how gentle he's being with your cheek.

You both stare at each other and his movements become slower and slower until he stops, resting his fingers on your cheek. You just stare into each others eyes in silence until he speaks up.

"You saved my life you know..." he says in a really soft tone as his fingers slide down on the skin of your cheek towards your jaw. "...Yeah..." you quietly say as you keep staring into each others eyes.
