I shifted in my bed, blinking rapidly to try and wear myself out. Why can't I sleep? I glanced round my room and huffed. Leo did an amazing job making this ship. I just wish he put soundproof glass at my windows because coach hedges singing doesn't really help with my sleeping problems. I can hear him on the top deck as he takes watch. Who knew he liked Taylor swift?
I continued to roll aimlessly when there was a soft knock at the door.
'Yeah?' I called. The door quietly opened before my wise girl slipped in, shutting it once again behind her. I sat up slightly when I noticed the tears the streaked her face.
'Hey baby' I whispered softly ' did you have a nightmare?'
She nervously pulled at the bottom of her sleeves and nodded, sniffling slightly. It was adorable.
' Annabeth, come here' I opened my arms and pulled the cover back , waiting for her to slide in. She did, before placing one arm on my hip, the other resting gently over my heart. She pressed her head in the crook of my neck and I sighed slightly at her touch.
I wrapped my arms round her waist and one curved to the small of her back, pulling her in closer. I gently put my head on top of hers and kissed her hairline softly.
' it's ok. We're together.' I sighed.
I felt her place a soft kiss under my earlobe making me close my eyes in happiness.
'Together.'
I closed my eyes, and fell into a dreamless sleep.
