Pain. I had never felt this kind of pain before. This was much worse then Gabe's beatings. So much worse. Ever muscle in my body ached, it felt as if someone had stabbed me over and over with a white hot branding iron. Is death supposed to hurt this much? I think numbly.
"Wake up" a muffled voice says and I feel something other than the pain, a cool hand on my forehead, then a slight presser on my lips. Liquid flows into my mouth, and it tastes like moms blue cookies. The pain that once dominated my body slowly starts to fade and I can feel my fingers. I curl one hand into a fist. I begin to gain feeling in the rest of my body and I attempt to open my eyes.
"That's it" the same voice says, clearer now "come on city girl, you can do it. Open your eyes" the voice says, and I feel something touch my cheek. I try again, forcing my eyes to open, and look around in wonder.
"She's up!" A voice says from my left and I look to see a boy with shaggy blonde hair and a natural tan. He had sharp features, high cheek bones and a strong jaw, everything a country boy should have. But the eyes ruined it. He had stormy grey eyes that seemed to bore right into my soul, and see all my darkest secrets. It was kinda Cute. What is wrong with you Rosalie Jackson? I mentally scold myself you don't even know him!
"Who are you?" I Ask in a strong voice which surprises me.
"You snore when you sleep" is the answer he gives me. I do not! Do I?
"Excuse me?" I say, shocked, but my shock quickly turns into anger "who the hell do you think you are?!" That earns a smirk from Country boy
"Alex chase, son of Athena, twin brother of Annabeth chase, at your service" he says, still smirking.
"What do you mean son of Athena? Like, Athena the Greek goddess?" I ask and he nods
"Don't worry, Chiron will explain. But your brothers looking for you, he's been pacing infont of the door ever since they brought you into the infirmary and I'm tempted to knock him out" he says and I glare at him. Nobody touches my brother. I swing my feet over the edge of the cot I'm laying on and hop down, wincing at the wave of nausea that hits me
"Careful" Alex murmurs, grabbing my arm and helping me stumble to the door. As soon as I'm outside I'm tackled by my brother, Percy
"Oof!"
"Rosalieiwassoworriedithoughtilostyoutobecauseyouwouldntwakeupanddonteverscaremelikethatagain!!" He screams out in one breath, squeezing me tight
"Cant. breath." I choke out, turning red.
"Sorry" he says, letting me go quickly, and i send him a smile showing no hard feelings
"Its ok Perce. I'm ok. We're ok, or at least we're gonna be. What is this place? How long was I out?" I ask, frowning, glancing at the blonde girl beside Percy. She looked just like Alex, sharp features, piercing grey eyes, a dash of freckles around her nose, natural tan, country girl look. Who the hell is that?
"Annabeth chase" she introduces herself, as if reading my mind "daughter of Athena" there that goddess again. Was everyone her kid?
"You were out for about a week rose" Percy says, glancing between me and Annabeth as if he were worried about something "and his is camp half-blood"
"Half blood?" I ask, confused, and I glance back at Annabeth to see her glaring daggers at something behind me. I turn and realize that Alex is holding me up, but from where Annabeth is standing it would look like he was hugging me from behind. Blushing, I pull away from Alex
"We should get you to Chiron. He'll explain" Percy mumbles, grabbing my arm but I pull away
" is she really gone?" I ask, my voice breaking as I stare at him, hoping, PRAYING that he'll say no, that it was all just a dream, but deep inside I know its not. I know that my moms gone. I just need him to confirm it.
" yes" Percy says finally, and I can see tears in his eyes "yes she's gone" he says and I feel tears of my own pooling out of my eyes. I'm an orphan I think numbly as I hold my now crying twin close. I'm an orphan and my mom is dead
