Camp Half Blood: One "Salty" Adventure

Camp Half Blood: A Salty Sequel//Chapter Fifteen

Rose's POV:

After I told Myra to get out, I let out my emotions. A tear fell down my cheek. But I wiped it away. You know what? No. She didn't deserve me crying over her. I wasn't exactly sure if I was angry or sad so I sat there in confusion, trying to sort out my emotions. Just then, Ben walked in. "Hey. I just saw Myra storm out. Tried to ask her what happened but she just pushed me aside." I looked up with yet another tear falling down my face. "Hey, what's wrong, Princess?" Ben asked concerned as he came over to me and engulfed me in his arms.

"W-we had a f-fight." I stuttered out, now full on crying. Ben didn't answer and just waited my sorrows out, holding me. He said comforting things in a hushed tone until I calmed myself down. Once I was composed, he took my chin lightly in one hand to face him. "Do you want to talk about what happened now?" I yawned and looked at my clock. It was later than I thought. "Maybe tomorrow, Babe. I kinda just want to go eat and then sleep." He nodded.

"Of course, Princess. Let's go get some dinner." We then walked over to the Pavilion together. We sat with Percy, Leo, Annabeth, Jason, and Piper and just hung out. I was quiet the entire time and I faintly heard Percy ask Ben what was wrong, but he replied with a shrug. Once we finished, we said our goodbyes and Ben walked back to my room with Percy and I while Percy and him finished up a conversation about god knows what. Once we got to the entrance Percy yawned loudly and gave Ben a "bro hug" and then, sleepily, walked into the Cabin. I heard him plop on his bed and then, soon enough, start lightly snoring. I let out a small laugh and then looked at Ben. "Hey, do you want me to stay with you tonight? I'm guessing Myra isn't going to stay with you and maybe you'd like some company?" I nodded my head and sadly smiled.

"I guess you're right... you don't have to stay with me though. I have Percy upstairs if I need him. Not like he's going to wake up anytime soon though." I laughed with Ben.

"Well I don't mind, right when I walk into my cabin it smells like chemicals anyway. I honestly wouldn't mind a change in scenery." I giggled.

"Alright, come on then." We walked into my cabin together. Before we went downstairs, I woke up a sleeping Percy and told him Ben was staying with me downstairs and he groggily answered me.

"Don't do anything stupid or I'll kill you." I laughed quietly.

"Don't worry, Percy. You can go back to sleep now. Night."

"Night." He said and then I left to my bedroom to see Ben had already taken his shoes and coat off and was getting into my bed. I smiled.

"Wait... do you want me to sleep on the floor?" He asked.

"No it's fine, we can sleep in the same bed. I need a cuddle buddy for the night." He smiled and I told him to stuff his face in the pillow while I changed into my pjs. He obliged and I did so. I then jumped into bed and Ben wrapped an arm around my waist.

"Night, Princess."

"Goodnight, Ben." I quickly fell asleep in the warmth of my boyfriend's embrace.

The next morning I woke up with Ben still there. He was cuddling me with his head in the crook of my neck and both his arms wrapped around my waist. I smiled and yawned. He woke up with an insanely loud yawn. "Mornin' babe." He said as he kissed me on the cheek. I smirked.

"Morning." I then got up to go put some real clothes on. It's gotten increasingly colder lately so I threw on a pair of skinny jeans, boots and a CHB T-shirt. I grabbed a leather jacket with fur on the inside and held it in my hand. I decided that I'd put it on once we went outside. I turned around and looked at Ben who had sat up. His face heated up red as he looked at me. "What, am I that amazing that you can't take your eyes off of me?" I laughed as I crossed my arms.
