Percy POV
"Goodbye, Camp. There is nothing there that is left for me anymore."
Yep. That's what I said when I left Camp. Both camps. There is nothing left for me there.
*flashback to about a week ago*
There was a new kid called Steve Goth. He is a showoff and egotistical son of Zeus. He glanced at me and I saw cruel ambition in his eyes. At first, he was a harmless guy. It got worse after a day. He started planting seeds of distrust in my friend's minds. What threw me off the edge was Annabeth. I had realized she had started getting distant, but I brushed it off. Then, she said something that destroyed me.
"Percy, come back, let me explain!" she had said.
"What is there to explain anymore Annabeth?"
"I don't love you."
Whatttttttttttttttt?? is what my first thought was. "So be it Annabeth." I said as I tried to hold back tears of sorrow and anger. "What have I done to deserve this?" I asked her.
"He is a kinder and nicer guy Percy. He is kinder to me than you ever have been."
I felt numb inside. This cousin of mine is so ambitious he drove all my friends.
"So it ends like this?"
"Yes, Seawee-"
"Don't call me that."
I gazed into her eyes and saw something. Or, rather, didn't see something. I didn't see the Annabeth I formerly loved.
End of Flashback
Yeah, my life sucks. My friends are probably cooing over him, seeing he is so "great". I've never admitted this to anyone, but I still had feelings for Annabeth. But, I doubted those feelings were returned.
