Annabeth
I woke up in someone's arms. I looked up to see Percy's jet black hair even messier than before. I blushed realizing we slept in the same room, let alone same bed. I slightly shook him to get up. "Five more minutes" He groaned. I nudged him again and his eyes slid open. "Oh gods Im sorry for.... ehm" "Its ok. Did you change me..?" I asked. Percy's eyes widened. "Of course not! I just gave you some clothes and I walked into the bathroom. You pulled me into the bed...I just didn't get out after you fell asleep" He explained to me. I blushed even more but nodded. "How about we go get some food?" Percy asked. "Sure, I'm starving" I replied.
He smiled and got out of the bed. "Hey Percy?" "Yeah?" "Do you still like me? Ya know from when we where like.. 11?" Percy whirled around. His face was bright red. "I uhh I mean.... do you still like me?" He asked. I bit my lip, and blushed again. I slightly nodded. Percy's eyes filled with hope. "I uhh... I.. I still like you, a lot actually" He admitted. I looked up at him, his sea green eyes where filled with confidence. But they drained when he saw tears were threatening to spill from my eyes. He rushed over to me. "Im still can't believe i forgot about you." I cried. "Ive never actually loved anyone else. I had a 'boyfriend' but he cheated on me." I blurted. "Same here, minus the relationship." He admitted. I hugged him quickly, then got up to change.
"Here" He said passing me some jeans and a orange shirt. I slipped into the shirt and almost immeaditly Percy whirled around and stared at me, although he wasn't staring at me, he was staring above my head. "What is it?" Annabeth wondered. "Y-you. Y-your a A-Athena kid" He stuttered, pointing above my head. I looked up to see what he was pointing at. I gasped at the grey owl above my head, and stepped backward, but tripped on my grey backpack. Percy ran forward and grabbed my wait, holding me up. He put me on feet, "Thanks" "No problem, thats like the fourth time Ive caught you" He smiled, and shrugged. "Does this mean I have to go into the other cabin?" i asked clearly wanting to stay in this cabin. Percy nodded sadly, "Yeah, but you can stay here for the week" Percy said. I smiled.
"C'mon lets go to the dining pavilion." Percy said opening up the door. I nodded and he took my hand. I blushed but hid it. 'He's opened up a door for me, that I can't close' I thought, smiling slightly.
We sat at the Poseidon table and ate pancakes and bacon. I got hot chocolate from the gauntlet. Luckily nobody was staring at me while I ate. Nico came and sat across from us. "Hey guys" He greeted. I smiled, "Hi Nico". Percy made a noise as a greeting, then went back to eating his food. "Hey Annabeth, Nico here knows latin, do you know any?" Piper asked sitting down next to Nico. "You guys shouldn't be over here" Percy warned. Piper shrugged. "Uhh he does? So he know what I'm saying when I say 'Ma Nico, mio caro'?" I said. Nico's eyes widened. He erupted into tears and ran towards the hades cabin. "What in Tatarus was that about?" the boy, Leo, asked as he walked by. "I think she might have.. crossed a specific line" Percy said. Piper and Leo immediately understood and ran towards the cabin. "What did i do?" I asked concerned. He turned to me, paler than usual, like he had seen someone die. "Nico, he had a sister" Percy whispered sadly. "What do you mean 'had'?" I said. "His sister, she.. she died." He said, choking back tears. "D-did he witness it?" I asked softly. He shook his head, "I did.". I winced. "I p-promised him I would protect her. Then she slipped out of my grasp and sacrificed herself. He's still a little mad at me." He said, a tear slipping down his face. "S-she used to sing him a lullaby when he got nightmares. That lullaby... had those words in it.". My eyes widened, "Oh no" I whispered.
I got up and ran towards the Hades cabin. "Annabeth no!" Percy called after me. I kept running. The door was wide open and i could here people yelling. Then a girl with a floppy green hat walked next to the door. Percy stopped dead in his tracks. "Holy Zeus" He said. The girl then started to sing: (You can play that video now )
"Close your eyes..
I know what you see...
The darkness is high..
And your in ten feet deep..
But we've survived...
More terrible monsters than sleep..
And you know I will be here..
to tell you to breath..
Tu sei il mio soldatino (You're my little soldier)
La ragonie per cui vivo (The reason I live)
non ti scordar di me (Don't for get me)
io veglierò su di te (Im watching over you)
Stumbling lost..
last choice of all that you meet...
it's the cost..
of ruling those neath your feet..
Paths you've crossed..
And trust your trying to keep...
You're exhausted..
Listening for a voice that can't speak..
Mi Nico, Mio caro (But Nico, my dear)
Tu seine mio soldatino (Your my little soldier)
la ragione ho vissuto (The reason I live)
non ti scordar di me (Don't forget me)
io veglierò su di te (Im watching over you)
So you run..
through shadows you roam..
seems undone..
by the love you thought you could own..
but he's just one..
of many that you might call home..
and maybe some day..
the bitter will fade from your bones..
fade from your bones..
eri il mio soldatino.. (you were my little soldier)
ora un principe oscuro.. (Now, a dark prince)
ma anche per te, c'e una luce.. (but even for you, there is a light)
che ad un'altra vita ti conduce.. (That leads you to another life)"
I turned to look at Percy. Tears were streaming down his face. I turned back and saw Nico standing in the doorway, staring down at the girl. Tears flooding his face. I realized who she was, that girl..was his sister.
Nico's Pov
My screams echoed the cabin as Leo tried to calm me. It wasn't working. The only person that could calm me, was dead. Then i heard her voice. The song flooded my thoughts, Bianca holding me while a giant explosion crashed downstairs, me running to Bianca as the ground cracked open, all the times she sang me the lullaby. Me summoning her, she was trying to reach for me but she just disintegrated. I stood up. Leo stood infront of me but i pushed him to the floor. Piper looked me straight in the eyes. she stepped away and I walked out the door. There she stood. Her sweet smile spread across her face. "Bianca, your here" I choked, tears slipping down my face. She nodded. I stepped down to where i was standing face to face with her. She reached her hand to my cheek, this time she didn't disintegrate.
