a new era of me

~apologies~

~September 8th~

I officially woke up, I didn't get much sleep.

It was 5 AM.. I got up, showered and got ready as fast as I could.

The whole time, Percy had consumed my every thought.

Our relationship, our memories together, us.

I love him, and I still do.

I just wanted his love, I just wanted him to share a bit of his love with me.

I tried my best to shake the thoughts out of my head.

To shake him from my head.

He shouldn't be in my head, he doesn't deserve it.

I grabbed my bag slipped my shoes on before making my way to the great hall.

As soon as I got to the great hall Percy pulled me
to the side.

Oh fuck.

I could feel my stomach drop as soon as he spoke up.

Merlin, this is where I ask you to save me.

"Hey, Adi-.. Adaline." He corrected himself before pausing.

A part of me felt upset with him for correcting himself.

I looked away to the side.  I didn't want to see him, I couldn't.

"Adaline, I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am." He began with a sigh.

"For?" I mumbled as I looked down.

I felt the nausea finally settle in.

"Last night.. Daphne.. The way I had treated you in our relationship." He continued.

I started picking at my fingers anxiously, A habit he thought was annoying.  I'm glad he didn't notice.

"It was wrong of me to treat you the way I treated you, I should've known better than to call you those names.. And I'm sorry for cheating on you." He added, looking slightly ashamed.

I looked up at him.

No fucking way??

"What the fuck do you mean that you cheated?!" I questioned immediately.

He looked confused, his face paled slightly.

"..You didn't know?" He hesitated.

"Obviously I didn't fucking know?!" I scoffed.  "This is actually unbelievable.  Fuck you, Percy!" I spat before pushing past him.

"Adaline!" He called out. "Adaline please!" He pleaded. "I thought you knew!" He followed after me.

I stopped in place and turned around.  "And why the hell would I know, hm? Hm?!" I demanded,

"I dunno I just-" He began before I cut him off.

"I don't want to hear it! Do you not know how much I love you?!" I berated. "After all this! After how much you hurt me, I still fucking love you." I added.
