Nightmares
Luke Castellen could go forty-eight hours without sleep and still fight a hell hound off of his best friend, but once Luke fell asleep he wanted to stay that way. He most certainly didn't want to be woken up by a crying seven year old at his cabin door. In the last two weeks since they had arrived and Thalia died Annabeth had been coming to him. Here she was at two in the morning.
"Luke." His cabin mates growled. He sighed and climbed out of his sleeping bag. He answered the door and Annabeth ran in and hugged him.
"Kiddo, we talked about this you have to stay in your cabin, your sibling would be happy to help, mine, not so much." He said patting her head. She looked up at him her gray eyes filled with tears.
"B-but you're my big brother." She insisted. Luke softened a bit. "And I can't go to Thalia anymore." Annabeth broke into uncontrollable sobs.
"Oh kiddo I'm sorry, come here." He knelt down and hugged her tightly. "I told you those nightmares are just pictures they can't touch you."
"They aren't pictures they are images my brain conjures up during REM that have to do with my past." She sobbed. Luke honestly had no Idea what she said so he said;
"Yeah that." He looked at her, she stopped crying and he picked her up and carried her to the Athena cabin. Annabeth's half-sister, Sky, answered the door and smiled.
"I'll take that." She said. Luke handed Annie over and went back to his cabin. As he lay down he could hear Thalia laugh at him. Gods Luke she's just a little kid she doesn't need much more then food, shelter, water and to know she's loved. Gods this mom stuff was harder then he thought.
