PERCY
Today is going to be a stupid day. It was already bad and I knew it was only going to get worse because today is the full moon and if I want to keep control over myself then I have to go through this terrible cycle. It sucks.
But this morning was already bad enough and the rest of the day is just going to fuck me over. I woke up from a terrible nightmare and I cut up my newly healed arms so they now have clean bandages wrapped around them and the guilt is eating me alive. I healed them because Nico and the others wanted them to be healed and I can't even go a full day without the pain in my arms to keep me sane.
Currently, I am sitting in my bed, staring at the wall as I wait for the sun to come up. I only slept for two hours and I have a killer headache due to this wolf cycle thing.
You see if I want to stay human then I would have to go through a 'fight' as we like to call it with the moon so I can shift on my accord. The rest of the pack isn't going to do this because they have no reason to. But today I'm staying in the shadows and if I don't do this I might accidentally kill someone. I use to do this every full moon because I couldn't let Gabe find out about me but I haven't done it in three months so it might hurt. A lot.
A knock interrupts me from my thoughts and I get up to open the door. I put a hand over my eyes to shield them from the bright sun. Seriously Apollo, turn it down a notch. When my eyes finally adjust to the bright light I see Will standing there.
"Hey, Sleepyhead."
"What are you doing here? It's early."
He shakes his head. "It's breakfast. You didn't come out so they sent me to get you."
"It's already breakfast?" I ask in disbelief. My head banging against my skull as I try to keep a straight face.
He looks at me weirdly. "Yeah. Were you asleep or something?"
"I was uh- yeah. Yeah, I was." He raises an eyebrow.
"Percy-" He starts.
"Let's just go. Okay?"
He nods slowly and turns around so we can walk to the pavilion. I look at the ground in an attempt to drown out everything around me. Will looks back at me and grabs my hand.
"What's wrong?"
"You don't want to know. Trust me."
I mean, do you know how hard this is? It's daylight and it still hurts to do this but I know if I started this later then something could go wrong. A side effect of doing this is that my eyes slowly start to turn into my wolf's eyes, so I would be walking around with glowing purple eyes.
"You look terrible, Percy."
"I'm fine," I say through gritted teeth. This actually hurts a lot more than I thought it would. I'm tempted to just give in, I'm turning into a wolf tonight anyway and if someone dies it won't be my fault, right? Who am I kidding it would be terrible and it'll just make it harder next month.
"What a pain," I say. We finally get to the table and I practically dive for the seat. I sigh in relief as I sit down. "Holy fuck."
