Percy POV

Professor McGonagall was leading us to the dorms. Harry, Ron and Hermione were coming with us. "Jason, Nico, Frank, and Leo will sleep here," Professor McGonagall said to them. "Thalia, Piper, and Hazel will sleep here," she stated.

"If you don't mind me asking, Professor," Hermione said timidly, "Where will Percy and Annabeth sleep?"

"It was requested by their headmaster that they sleep together," The Professor said.

Ron snickered at that. "Why?" he questioned.

"Nightmares so bad we both wake up screaming." Percy said.

"Then why together?" Harry asked

"Because he's the only person that can calm me down, and I'm the only person that can calm him down." Annabeth answered.

Apparently, that seemed legit to the wizards, because they went downstairs to our dorms.

Harry POV

This was the only time in the history of Hogwarts that a student slept with the opposite gender!

I rolled my eyes. Dreams that made the both of them wake up screaming? Yeah, as if we were supposed to believe that. They must have bribed their headmaster or something.

I changed into my PJ's, and fell into a dreamless sleep as soon as I hit the pillows.

*****TIMESKIP*****

I jolted up. Someone was screaming! I ran up the stairs to find the new students in a huddle around Percy and Annabeth's door. "No! Percy! I can't see you! I can't see you!" Annabeth broke down into sobs, from what I could hear.

They all looked worried. "We had our own war as well. Percy and Annabeth were captured and tortured, which is why they are like this." Piper said.

The sobs died down, and a shirtless Percy and Annabeth in a tank top and shorts appeared at the door.

By now, almost all of Gryffindor was here. I heard Percy Weasley say, "Excuse me, excuse me, I am head boy!"(I know he's not supposed to be here, but I wanted him to be)

What surprised me most about them were the amount of scars on them. Percy and Annabeth were wearing pants and long-sleeved shirts, so we wouldn't have seen them. All over their arms and legs were scars, some which had opened up.

Piper gasped and went up to them. "It hasn't been this bad in ages! Is the spell they wet on you working up?" she asked, pointing at an open wound.

Annabeth sighed, and nodded. Percy gestured for Jason to come in. They closed the door.

"All right, nothin' going on here people!" Leo yelled over the din. "Go back to sleep!"

People walked back to their dorms, and went back to sleep.

It wasn't long later until I heard another scream, this time male. "NO! YOU CAN'T TAKE HER FROM ME! ANNABETH!!!"

I decided not to go back up. Tomorrow, I was going to request that Professor McGonagall put a silencing charm on their room, because they were so loud.

Percy POV

"ANNABETH!" I yelled. My eyes snapped open, and I saw Annabeth's worried face right above mine. "Annabeth," I breathed. I put my hands around her neck and pulled her down for a kiss. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and kissed back. She pulled back, and gasped. "Percy, your wounds reopened again!"

She closed her eyes, and a single tear fell out. "How much longer do we have to be like this?" she choked out.

"I don't know, Annabeth, I don't know." I wiped away her tear. I grinned. Wait, does the Annabeth Chase not know something?" I teased.

She smiled tearfully. "Seaweed Brain!" she exclaimed. We both burst out laughing. It felt good to laugh.

When we were done, Annabeth walked over to her suitcase and brought out a baggie of ambrosia. I took a bite out of a corner piece, and all of the scars that opened up closed again.

We opened the door, and a quarter of the population of Gryffindor was there. "Go back to sleep," I yelled. They all filed out.

I'm going to ask Professor McGonagall to put a silencing charm on our door," Annabeth grumbled.

I shrugged. "As long as those people can get their sleep," I said.

I closed my eyes, ready to fight off more nightmares.

Piper POV

I felt bad for Percy and Annabeth. They were burdened with the memories of Tartarus, and they were cursed so that they would remember the pain they felt every night.
