"Now I gotta let you go, You'll be better off in someone new. I don't wanna be alone, You know it hurts me too. You look so broken when you cry, One more and then I say goodbye."

Ik the amortentia lesson was supposed to be much earlier, but I think this placing is perfect.

***

The couple spent their first Christmas and new years since their break-up with their family.

Percy had opened up to Sally about Annabeth, but other than that, he was quite isolated, not really going outside.

When the school year resumed, Annabeth and Percy stayed away from each other like they had become accustomed to doing.

Throughout the days, their friends tried to push them back together, but neither of them were willing enough.

Percy did feel slightly sad at how disconnected he had become with the Griffindors, though, since he didn't know that after Slytherin lost the Quidditch match last year, Ron started dating Lavender Brown.

He found out through an uncomfortable moment when they were kissing in front of everyone while having breakfast.

Seeing how uncomfortable Ron was made the whole situation worse since Lavender didn't seem to notice.

Percy wasn't particularly happy throughout this time, but he wasn't too upset either. The girl he had met at the slug club Party had seemingly disappeared, which he found odd but he didn't wonder too much on it.

Percy had noticed the distance between Drew and Ethan growing, and wondered what was going on.

That night, Percy was getting ready for bed when he heard a sudden loud bang on the door.

He warily stepped out of his room, looking around, confused, like everyone else.

"Perceus Jackson!"

"Shit," he muttered.

Everyone turned to him, confused.

He walked closer, opening the door when Thalia grabbed his shirt by the collar, a murderous look in her eyes.

"Why would you hurt her?" She gritted.

"I didn't do anything," he said calmly.

She pinned him against the wall, everyone watching the altercation.
