Chapter 1
Have you ever felt helpless and the only way to fill the gap in your heart was to avode something?
Welcome to my Life!
I ran away a year ago the day before my birthday. So in a couple of days I turn Sixteen.
Yep. I'm Fifteen. What a life of a demigod!
So you think I ran away from my parents?
Your dead wrong!
Believe it or not, but I ran away from Camp Half-Blood. Yep. I ran away from my friends!
I bet your wondering who in their right mind do THAT!?
Me. That's who.
The reason why I ran away was...well, I couldn't bring myself to tell.
I was going to find a place to settle down,but I ran across-
"ZuZu! Where are we? I'm starving!" Little Ellie asked.
Yep. Little Ellie Thomas. I ran across her one day, in a ally looking for food. I took her in, Fed her, and patched her up. She told me she lived on a farm in Georgia, with her mom. One day a HUGE hellhound attacked and killed her mom. Her mother told her to go to New York, Long Island. Where there's people just like her.
I lied though. I lied to her. I told her that I was going there, but instead I'm just dropping her of then leaving.
I was pulled from my thoughts when someone was pulling my arm.
"Can we eat now? I'm sooo hungry!" She complained.
"Alright. Alright. We can set camp here." I laughed.
She squealed in excitement and ran off, finding a place to set camp. I followed her to our little ground and started the fire.
I let out a sigh watching the flames dance. It remind me of... him.
I watched as the 'lil jellie bean rolled up our sleeping bags.
She reminds me so much of my-
Stop! I scolded. You can't think about... you know... back then.
"You okay?" Ellie Sat down next to me. I didn't realized a tear was rolling down my cheek.
"Yeah," I whipped it away."Just thinking." "Of him?"
I stiffened.
Him. The images of Him flooded my mind. I remember everything about him AND every moment together.
His corny jokes. His goofy smile. His way with tools and machine's. His curly,Brown hair. His warm hugs. His warm Chocolate eyes.
"Hello? Earth to Zoe?" Ellie waved her hand in front of me. "Do you hear me?" "Yeah," I sniffed."I hear you."
"Good 'cause your chicken ready."
I hand her, her chicken, and she ate it up.
"You like it?" I smirked.
"Uh-huh! It's the best!"
"You know what's also good?"
She gulped. Uh-Oh. She thought.
I then tackled her to the ground and start tickling her."S-Stop! S-Stop Z-Zoe!" She begged between laughes.
I got off of her and brushed myself off, letting her catch her breath.
I sat down smiling and finished my meal.
She DOESremind me...of myself before...I..I-I ran away.
