When You Fall: Chapter 4

We do not own the Percy Jackson series, the Heroes of Olympus series, or even the characters in this story. That honor goes to Rick Riordan. We just own the plot of this fanfiction.


Percy's POV:

"Wait, Percy." I heard.

"Yes, Annabeth."

"Tell me a story."

"About what?"

"Why you and Jason are fighting."

"Were fighting." I stated blankly.

"Tell me why." She asked.

"Ok fine. You really know how to get what you want out of me don't you? (That statement was not meant to be dirty for all of you with corrupted minds) I'm not really sure how out fight started, or why we are fighting, but I'm pretty sure it has to deal with me taking his place as praetor. One day he just got really mad at me and stopped talking to me." I finished

Annabeth opened her arms and beckoned me towards her. I walked over to her and moved next to her, wrapping my arms around her shoulders and pulling her close. "I love you, Annabeth." I told her. But she was already asleep, and I was soon to be just like that.


Nico's POV:

All I could think about was Percy. And how I was going to be scorned for loving him. He will never know. He will never know how hard it is to contain your feelings. He will never know how many night are spent crying over unrequited love. He will never ever know any of that. Or have to feel it. He is already in love. With Annabeth. How he flirts with her and looks at her with those green eyes you could get lost in. Only Jason and Eros know. I don't know if I can trust either of them. I could definitely trust Hazel. But Jason and Eros. My feelings need to be concealed.

Annabeth's POV:

My dreams were back.

"Thalia!" I shouted.

"Go! I'll hold them off." She said, her voice wavering a bit.

The Cyclopes came closer, their steps shaking the ground. Thalia held her shield Aegus and gripped her knife tight. Luke and Grover ushered me inside camp, but I tore away from their grip and turned just in time to see Thalia picked up and slammed against the ground.

"NO!" I shouted.

She laid there, and I watched her, as the Cyclopes slammed against the barrier. The something happened. A miracle. The roots grew around her and a tree shot up from the ground.

I gasped and woke up. Percy's arms tightened around me and I shrunk into him. He kissed the top of my head and sent shivers down my spine. He wiggled down my cot/bed so he could kiss me.

"Thalia." That was all I said.

He knew what I was talking about.

"She is okay. She is a Hunter." He told me as he hugged me tight.

I sighed and laid against his chest. I thought about my life. It was slowly crumbling to pieces. All of ours were.

And I was the closest to breaking.
