"Where'd you go?
You said you'll never leave me.
All alone, my heart is barely beating.
Like a ghost you haunt me every day that you're gone."
Perseus Jackson is strong and brave. His smile is contagious. His eyes are breathtaking. His whole personality is alluring. I am hopelessly in love with that boy. I am in desperate need of his love.
I'm not sure when I fell in love with him. Perhaps it was without a date at all. Somewhere in those four years, I fell for him. Hard. I was his, and in the same way, he was mine. No one asked; no one had to. We just walked around, unclaimed.
After the second titan war everything changed. He refused the offer of immortality for me. And then I knew for sure. He loved me.
Until, he didn't. He left me. He promised, he swore that he wouldn't. Why can no one keep their promises?
"You're part of our family now. And I promise I won't let anything hurt you. I'm not going to fail you like our families did us."
"If you ever leave me again, I swear to all the gods - " Percy had the nerve to laugh. "Consider me warned," Percy said. "I missed you, too."
When Luke first broke his promise, I was so hurt. I'd never felt pain like that before. I never thought I'd feel pain like that again, but here I am. Ten times worse. No poisoned blade could ever compare to this feeling. Percy Jackson. If I can't trust him, I can't trust anyone, not even myself.

"Waking up just brings me down,
'Cause every morning you are nowhere to be found.
And my bed is half empty not half full.
I'd rather live with broken bones,
Then lay here all on my own like a lovesick fool."
I am lost for words when trying to describe how this feels. It's harder to bare than the weight of the sky, and trust me, I know from experience. But I know this is right thing to do. It's the only way I can protect Annabeth.
"Daughter of wisdom, son of the sea
it is time that one of you must flee
united only one can survive
the danger around you will continue to thrive
Hero, if you want her to live you must surrender your life
or she will die by her very own knife."

"It feels like a prison.
Here, I'll stay until you come back home.
Who put that rock in your chest, won't you tell me?"
"Hey Rachel," I said with a sigh, taking the spot next to her on the couch.
She gets this far away look in her eyes before green mist pours out of her mouth and surrounds her completely. Then the sprit of Delphi speaks.
"Child of Athena, beware of your fate
for you will be killed if your lover is late
You must forgive him for the lie
Or you will never get to say goodbye.
Son of the sea will surrender his life
to save you from the cursed knife."
Rachel falls to the ground. I drop to my knees and shake her until her eyes reopen.
"What is going on? Was...was it about Percy? Is he going to die?!"
"He made me swear not to tell you..."
"Tell me what?" I scream, tears streaming down my face.
"The prophecy Percy got...
Daughter of wisdom, son of the sea
it is time that one of you must flee
united only one can survive
the danger around you will continue to thrive
Hero, if you want her to live you must surrender your life
or she will die by her very own knife," She finishes.
No. No!
Author's note: I don't own Percy Jackson or any music from the Cab.
I did create the prophecies though, so sorry that they suck...
