It's Okay
Maybe it was okay. It was okay that he had a crush on his best friend. It was okay that it was unrequited. It was okay that he was helping Jason with Percy. It was okay when Jason and Percy became a couple.
It was okay when Leo started cutting, because he could stop whenever he wanted. It was okay when everyone stopped paying attention to him, because he's just the jokester. Why can't you ever be serious Leo? It was okay when he started to be bullied. It was okay when he stopped eating because maybe then they would like him again.
It was okay when Annabeth started to get worried and ask him questions. I'm fine Annie, you don't have to worry. Besides, it was just Annabeth that noticed the usually happy Leo slowly stopped smiling, making corny jokes, and was too skinny Leo, it's not health. I'm worried about you. Leo would just wave it off, say that she didn't understand and that he could stop whenever he wanted.
At least she left him alone about it, until she seen a glimpse of the cuts on his wrist. It's nothing Annie, please don't worry. L-leo please stop this, hurting yourself won't help anything. I-i need you, you're my best friend. I don't want to loose you, please? Please don't cry, I promise I'll try to stop.
He was okay when he stopped cutting and started eating again.
Nothing was okay when Annabeth was attacked by monsters and died in Leo's arms. Nothing was okay when Leo went mute that day and stopped talking and pulled away from everyone even farther than before. And nothing would ever be okay again because Leo lost his best friend.
