Annabeth
Its been the same dream every night. The same images, the same dialogue, and the same feeling every night ever since it happened. Ever since he died, died trying to save me, but I'm probably confusing you what am I talking about, who died, and what happened? Well I guess I should start from the night before it happened. The night that changed my life forever.
Flashback
"We should reach camp in about six hours according to Festis' GPS." Leo said over the intercom of the Argo II.
"I'll take patrol with Piper." Jason hurriedly before anyone could try to get the slot.
No one objected. We were all pretty tired to take the first patrol so we all decided to go to bed before Jason or Piper could change their minds. When I got to my cabin I quickly took a shower and put on my underwear and a kami to sleep in. When I climbed into the bed I started to have a hard time falling asleep. I heard a knock on the door and before I could stop myself I said "Come in."
When the door opened my boyfriend stood there in a pair of pajama pants, but no shirt. Gods I thought aren't I the luckiest girl in the world. He stood there and looked at me for a second before he finally said something.
"Could I sleep in here?"
I stared at him flabbergasted. "W-w-what?" I stammered out, but I saw the fear in his eyes the fear we had both felt since the moment we got out of Tartarus. I put myself in his shoes and I knew I couldn't just let him not get another night of nightmares that we have had. Besides maybe doing this will help us both I thought. "Sure, just don't drool all over me ok?"
He looked relieved and slid under the covers next to me. Having him close like that felt good, and I kept imagining the life I would be having now if I had never met the Seaweed Brain. Turns out it wasn't a good thing to imagine.
As we lay there I noticed that his breathing hadn't changed. "Afraid to sleep?" I asked knowing the answer which was the same as mine.
"Yeah, every time I close my eyes I keep on seeing the awful things that were down there, and I'm afraid to even blink."
"Me too." I replied.
Before knew it he was kissing me, that oh so gentle kiss the one I absolutely loved. Then somehow the next moment we were both naked under the cover having the best night of our lives.
End Flashback
"Mommy are you ok?" asked a sweet voice coming from the doorway. Standing there was a little girl and boy. The boy had jet black hair and grey eyes with a hint of sea green around the pupil. The girl had blonde curly hair with sea green eyes with tiny flecks of grey all around. They looked no more than five years old, but still looked pretty wise for their age.
"Yeah I'm fine. Why do you ask?"
"Because you are sweating like crazy and panting like you have been every night this month?" stated the boy, looking at her with calculating eyes, the eyes of Athena and Poseidon.
"It's just the nightmare again, its nothing to worry about, go back to bed."
Instead of going back to their rooms they climbed up into my bed. They snuggled up around me on either side. I looked at them and I didn't have the heart to kick them out. Instead I said "Good night Pearl, good night Luke." Then I put my arms around them and drifted off into a dreamless sleep (the first one in five years), but not before I hear them say in perfect unison "Good night mom."
