PJO+Storm Runner book

Elena

this is not my story it belongs to JuliaLovesFire but you should know that by now.

My life was going great until my son went missing. From there everything else went downhill. First I decided to visit my long-distance boyfriend before I left. It had been a while since I last saw him. I opened the door and I found him cheating on me with another woman. He then admitted he had cheated on me with about a hundred different women. I really should've listened when Hondo and my son told me that I was being cheated on. I broke up with him and walked around the city hopelessly. Then I remembered that I had another old friend that would likely take me in, Ms. Dare. I used to be a singer and she's the one who gave me my outfits since she was a big fashion icon in the past. We grew close and then somehow she was also my manager until I disappeared 15 years ago. Hopefully her old age hasn't caught up to her yet. I walked to her house with my bag on my shoulder, it took a while. I was waiting at a crosswalk when a guy put a hand on my shoulder.

"Hey cutie wanna be mine?" He looked like he was in his 70s. He had long gray hair, a beard and icy blue eyes. Definitely too old (Correction young) and not my type.

"Get away from me!" I shouted as I smacked his hand off my shoulder. Then a woman with brown hair and peacock themed makeup and accessories marched up to us.

"DID YOU JUST HIT ON HER!?" She shouted angrily at him.

"No, of course not dear." He said guilty.

"Actually he did and I rejected him. Have a good day." I felt good after exposing him even though he had hit on me. The light turned green and I crossed. Honestly she should just divorce him at this point since it seemed he had done this many times before. I could hear her shouting at him from like a block away. I opened up my phone and got a text.

Are you still up for dinner?

Yes

At least I had something to do while I was here. Hopefully Ms.Dare remembered me. I stood at her front door and knocked 3 times. Ms. Dare was there within a second, surprisingly. Her face lit up when she saw me.

"Come in, how are you, it's been so long? Are you hungry? We have lots of food! Stay the night and catch up!" She pulled me inside and somebody, most likely one of her servants took my bag somewhere. She dragged me to the living room while talking about how much she missed me and other things I missed out on.

"I thought you were dead. Everyone did, except that shady friend of yours. Did he do something to you!?" She exclaimed worriedly, I was about to answer when her son walked in. He hadn't changed much. Shock registered on his face when he saw me.

"Aren't you supposed to be dead?" He asked nonchalantly.

"I guess," I replied jokingly as I stood up and shook his hand.

"Are you going to stay for dinner? It'll be nice to catch up, I'm sure my mother will be extremely happy if you stay." He smiled friendly but I could tell he might've felt weirded out by my sudden reappearance. To be honest I preferred living off the grid more since I wasn't caught up in chaos half the time anymore.

"I would love to, but I have dinner with an old friend." I answered, maybe he wouldn't dress so casually this time. Hopefully since we're going to a fancy restaurant for dinner. It'll be nice to see him again after a few months.

"Oh, will you atleast stay the night?" Ms. Dare asked.

"Of course!" I replied enthusiastically, I liked being surrounded by people I knew in unfamiliar places. Besides, I couldn't show up at Paul's again after I said I was staying somewhere else. Then a lady I assumed to be his wife walked into the room. She had red hair about shoulder length and was wearing a white beaded headband with black bows attached to it. She was wearing a black dress which had its front part at knee length while it had a train in the back. She had fake white fur draping her arms as she walked in holding and arm up with her other.
