I awoke to the bed empty and Poseidon nowhere in sight. I sighed and stood up from the warmth of the bed. Why I expected Poseidon to be by my side when I awoke was a mystery, not after yesterday's events. For some reason we slipped into our old ways because we disagreed over something so pointless. I changed and brushed my hair and teeth before I left the bedroom. I ran down stairs hoping he was there so I could apologies but he wasn't. I sighed and walked to the throne room. It was then I saw he was training Percy and Nico.
They knocked his trident out of his hands and Thalia and Artemis clapped. Poseidon laughed and ruffled their hair before he turned. He noticed me and turned away I frowned and walked forwards. "Poseidon." he drew away at my touch and I felt my heart shatter. "Can we talk?"
"Whats there to talk about?!" he snapped. I flinched and the others turned to us.
"Please." I spoke.
"No!" he snapped going to pick his trident up. I grew angry that he was always like this.
"We need to talk!" I snapped running in front of him.
"Move!"
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!" he shoved me to the side but I stumbled and slammed to the floor. Tears brimmed my eyes but I blinked them away. "Poseidon you listen to me right now!" I screamed as he walked closer to the door.
"What!"
"I'm sorry okay, but we need to talk, you can't just shut me out."
"I'm not shutting you out."
"Yes you are!"
"No I'm not!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes gods dammit Poseidon I don't know what I have done to piss you off and I'm sorry I'm trying to make this work but you can't keep shutting me out arsehole!"
"I'm not shutting you out!"
"Yes you are okay and I'm sorry for whatever I have done!" by now I had stood up with tears falling down my face. He turned to me and flashed in front of me holding my shoulders.
"I'm not shutting you out!" he growled. I slapped his hands away. "Yes you are and again I'm sorry for whatever I did!" I hissed running away. I locked are mansion doors and put the wards up, keeping him out.
I collapsed on the sofa crying my heart out, wishing the pain would just go away.
"Athena let me in!" he snapped.
"No!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes gods dammit!" I swiped the tears away and opened the door. "Let me in!"
"No!" I spoke slamming the door shut.
"Athena!" he snapped.
For two days I locked him out of the mansion. When Hermes told me off a meeting did I freshen up and flash there. I ignored Poseidon, and sat there trying to listen to my father. When it was over I flashed away before he could do anything. Yet again the tears came for that was all I seemed to be doing, other than screaming out in my sleep.
Ares flashed in and ran to me. He hugged me tightly and I cried into his shirt. Ares was the only sibling I was the closest with. He soothed me and told me that I should eventually talk to him.
I disagreed for I had tried that already, and so as he left I lugged my emotionally and physically drained body upstairs.
When I changed I fell asleep hoping that something would go right. It was bad enough with this but I have been sick most mornings.

I screamed in my sleep and then I felt arms wrap around me. I looked up to father. He rocked me back and forth and I relaxed. "You need to talk to him." he spoke. I sighed and agreed just hoping I would get sleep.

A few minutes later I fell asleep in my father's arms but not nearly as much as I thought for I felt him tuck me in bed and kiss my forehead. I relaxed and when I awoke it was to the feeling that I was going to vomit. I ran to the bathroom and opened the toilet seat. I vomited and then brushed my teeth and changed before I flashed to the throne room. Only Poseidon was in the throne room and I had the erg to flash away again.

He noticed me and flashed know if front of me, "Athena I am so sorry please forgive me." he spoke. I noticed he had dark circles under his eyes but my brain screamed no while my heart screamed yes. "Along as if you let me in and not shut me out." I spoke. He nodded and pulled me into a hug. I relaxed and the tears came down my face. He lifted my chin up and swiped them away. "I love you." he spoke. I blushed as my heart fluttered. "I love you too." I spoke. He smiled weakly and kissed me.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and my fingers played with his hair. When he drew away he apologised again and again in between pecks on the lips.
"Poseidon it's okay." I spoke though we both knew that it would take time.
"I love you." he spoke as the others entered I smiled and hugged him tightly hoping he wouldn't disappear.
He kissed my forehead and I closed my eyes. A bile rose in my throat and I drew away. Apollo rose his eyebrow and I signed to him. He summoned a bucket and I vomited, Poseidon moved my hair and rubbed my back, summoning a glass of water when I finished. He placed the bucket down and sat me down. "How long have you been vomiting?" Apollo spoke.
"Three days." I spoke.
He frowned and chanted, but before he could finish, I vomited again, this time longer. Hera walked forwards and when I stopped she placed a hand on my stomach. She chanted and I groaned as another bile came. I vomited again and Poseidon rubbed my back. "What is wrong with her?" he spoke. Hera smiled like a kid at Christmas. "Congratulations she's pregnant." Poseidon kissed my forehead and I smiled weakly, man I was tired.
