Everyone had sensed it by now. Though Noone beside Annabeth really knew, everyone had a slight assumption. They all knew that not all of Percy's scars were from monsters. At least not the mythic ones.
They'd all seen that mask of a grin and the character of the fun humorist percy slip only to reveal someone that No one knew.
The seven had noticed multiple times how
Percy had slashed and killed monsters without betting an eye but whenever they get into arguments with him, whenever they raise their voice. The way sometimes percy backs away. Or sometimes when he just stands there his eyes betraying his feelings of fear and anger. Even on small things. Percy was sensitive. No one really knew why. Percy hadn't trusted anyone beside Annabeth to tell then this part of himself.He hated it. He hated how easily he could get frightened or how his heartstrings racing everything dionysis points his wine bottle at him. He HATES it. But still he can't do anything about it.
_____________________________________________One day in camp half blood. There was capture the flag and posiden, Athena, hephestus and demeter teams had teamed up against the rest of the camp for the game.
While playing percy had drowned one of the dionysis kids in water before stealing the flag from them. He ran fast and strong, his father's element strengthening him as he ran across to their side and made his team win.
There was a lot of celebration and a huge campfire sing-along, most of which he spent with Annabeth and Jason . After the long night he was tired and headed to his cabin to crash. He dreamt about his mom and him with Annabeth on their cabin in mauntak.
For some reason in the back of his head a fear was growing. A dread that wasn't of the usual monster attack or desperation to survive the year. He couldn't realize what the feeling was considering the dreams he was having but his kind was sluggish so he soon lost thought.
Something woke him up. A strong pungent smell he had hated his whole life. Fear made his heart crawl to his throat. Even without opening his eyes he grabbed riptide. But he couldn't. He was floating. But this was not water. He could breathe but he didn't want to. Those old scars started painting again as memories of how he got them resurfaced in his mind.
Not the scars from the last few wars or tartarus but the scars from being brutally tortured by Gabe. Those horrible memories resurfaced in his head as he slowly realized what he was floating in.
Alcohol. Wine. He was floating in a bubble of wine completely covering him. All those times his room had been covered I cigarettes and bottles. The times when he had let Gabe beat him telling he won't hurt his mom, only to beat her as well. That to in front of him. All those times he heard his mom scream from her room. Screams he didn't understand why she was uttering until he did. All those nights praying and hoping that his bruises would dissappear before school the next day. All those memories resurfaced. In his complete contrast making him scream.
Some of the wine may have trickled into his mouth which only worsened his thoughts. He screamed louder this time. Begging, praying for all this torture to stop. He hated feeling this vulnerable.
Someone came in. Percy felt the door open. But he was to scared and desperate to feel embarrassed. He didn't know when but tears left his eyes mixing with the wine now all around him. CRASH.. something fell into the fountain and then the bubble burst. Percy fell to the floor before he could do anything and he just stayed there.
"Percy?!" He heard Annabeth call out his name. His eyes filled up even more as he thought how much of a trouble he had caused her. She ran next to him. She hugged him and he hugged back. " " he's gone. Percy. You are safe ok breathe" and he did he hugged Annabeth tight and just held on. Usually he didn't like crying in front of people especially his girlfriend but what he needed overruled his ego and he just sat there in that awful puddle of wine all around his cabin.
"Hey man. You okay?" He heard another voice in the room. Jason. He was here.
Percy quickly willed his tears to dissappear ( he was still a posiden kid. Scared or not). He got up pulling Annabeth with him. Wine now stained all over his clothes. "Yeah bro. I'm fine. Thanks thanks for helping me." He said pulling on the mask of a grin. Though this time it quite didn't mask his eyes, which were of a scared boy, not the two time savior of Olympus. " it was Kade. The dionysis kid. Apparently he had some grudge with you and came to give you a little prank. I taught him his prank. He'll be in the infirmary, in case you wanna deal with him yourself." Jason said as he gave percy a quick man hug."thanks man. I owe you one."Percy said, his smile not fooling anyone." Bro if you don't mind me asking........what was that all about. You could clearly control that tide but you didn't? Why?" Jason asked nervously clearly worried about his friend. Annabeth flashed him a look that clearly said later " why don't we let him change up and then we'll talk. Bad way to start a Saturday, huh?" She said giving percy a kiss. He kissed back and she led Jason out of the room.
That day she told the seven about his past with smelly Gabe and how he was traumatized even before he entered his other world. The dionysis kid was hated by everyone except maybe dionysis himself. That day the other percy had come out. The hidden percy.......
A/n- I'm leaving it at that. I had exams going on so I couldn't publish a lot. But now I don't. I'll keep updating every weekend twice. So see you guys later
