Narrator POV:
Sally ran to her room and locked the door behind her.
The door shook and rattled with the force of Gabe's fist.
"Get out here, bitch!" He roared.
"Hush, Gabe; the neighbors will hear!" Sally cried.
There was silence on the other side of the door.
"Come out here, babe. I'm sorry."
Sally unlocked the door and crept out meekly. He wrapped his arms around her in a hug, and she tried to hide the tears streaming down her face. Gabe's lips were right next to her ear when he hoarsely whispered,
"You know you shouldn't have made me mad. It's your fault I'm like this."
"I know," Sally whispered back through her tears, "and I'm sorry. I love you."
"I've half a mind just to leave."
"No! Please don't leave!" She spoke urgently. "Let's just go to bed. I'll do whatever you want this time."
"You really hurt me, baby."
"I'm sorry! I'm so, so sorry. Just please, don't leave me alone!"
"Okay. You're lucky to have me, you know. No other guy would be willing to put up with your shit."
"I know, I know. Shh, let's just go to bed."
And that was the night Percy Jackson was conceived.
