Luke

The closer we got to Olympus, the more fear i was gaining.

Fear from finally meeting my father. The man who helped create me. The man who suddenly left me alone with my mum, giving no reason as to why he left.

After this morning, me and michael didn't speak to eachother. I stuck with calum and it took all my might not to drown michal each time we passed a pond.

I didn't know how to feel about him. He drives me crazy, but he makes me happy like no one ever could. He breaks my heart, only to bring it back together again with just his angelic laugh. The irony, i know.

Sounds cheesy but I might have a slight crush on him. He's attractive, he's funny, he's strong. And honestly, his dominance gets to me sometimes making me feel weak.

I was so caught up in my thoughts that I didn't realize the group stopped.
I looked up, seeing the Empire state building off into the distance. We were just entering the city.

We were almost there.

Everyone sighed with relief as we made our way to the benches, relaxing. michael sat next to me and I tensed, playing with my fingers.

"luke, I'm sorry for earlier. I was just embarrassed and I didn't know how to take it and i'm just an idiot I'm so-"

I cut off his rambling with a laugh and he immediately quieted down, waiting for a reaction.

"I accept your apology, mikey."

I quickly realized my name slip and I internally panicked, hoping he didn't pick it up.

"Mikey, huh? Didn't know where on a nickname basis.... lukey." He teased, making me squirm slightly and a blush to crawl on my cheeks.

He suddenly pulled me into a hug and I was taken aback, but hugged him nonetheless.

The elevator took its sweet time hauling us up to mount olympus.

I bit my lip and tugged on my hair slightly, my stomach wild with nerves as I thought about all the reactions I could have when I see my father.

"You nervous?" Michael whispered, concern shining in his eyes. I nodded. We were all going to see our fathers/mothers and I was the one almost having a panic attack as the doors dinged open.

We saw the grand doors at the end of the hallway and I felt michael and calum give my hands a squeeze. "You'll be alright." The boys chorused as we started walking towards the room that held my father.

A/N: sorry it's so short. I needed a cliff hanger haha. Next update will be soon (-:
