P.J POV:
When I woke up, I looked over at Tessa bunk and sees that she's not there. Sitting straight up, jumping off the top bunk, and look around outside, the sun hasn't even come up. I run around trying to find her, after a few minutes I found her in the Arena. She punches one of the dummies and sends it flying back, she looks like she been here for a while. "Hey, Tess." She freezes and looks at me.
"H-hey" She walks over to me, sweat rolling down her face.
"Your up early."
"Y-ya... couldn't sleep..." she says quietly.
"Do you get nightmares often?" she sighs at my question.
"Ya... I get them a lot." She says with a nod. I look over her, and now notice the dark circles under her eyes, she looked older than she is. You can see how watching over her brother wears her out, and all the stress weighs down on her shoulders. She notice me staring too much and she smiled, and all the weariness is gone. Just like that, it seemed to me she had lots of practice with that.
"hey, do you want to see something cool?" I asked her, she needed a break and do something fun.
"Sure, but my brother" I hold my hand and stopped her, she then sighs "Alright lets go"
Grinning I turned and started to walk off, then go into a slow jog, I hear her right beside me. I jog to the small lake, and wait for her to catch up once I reached the lake. "Here we are!"
"A lake? You wanted to show me a lake?" She sounded confused.
"Come with me" I grab her hand and pull her with me into the water, after calling me crazy and holds her breath for a while, she realized that she could breathe under water, I laugh a bit at that. I pulled her down with me to the ocean floor, towards an underwater cave. We swim towards it, controlling the water to push us towards the cave. When we got in the cave I helped her up on to the dry land, inside the cave where different kinds of shells, jewels, and Greek weapons and armor. I looked at her and her eyes were wide in amazement and jaw to the ground. I burst into laughter; she closes her mouth and frowns at me.
"What's so funny?!" she demands.
"Your face, it was funny!" I did my best and mimic her face and she laughs and I smile.
"You have a nice laugh" She smiles and shakes her head.
"Nah, its weird, like me" I frown at what she says.
"Why do you think your weird?"
"Because I am. That simple... anyways, this is a really cool place" I sigh at her for changing the subject, but didn't say anything else about it.
"Ya, I found it a while back. Thought you might like it. It could be your get away place. Oh and there's a cave entrance above water, but its more fun going through the water" I laugh more.
"Wow, thanks... This place is amazing. Thank you for showing me" She smiles at me. She walks around picking up stuff and looking at them, then sitting down again. "Really this place is awesome"
"Well I got to get going, Breakfast starts in about 20 mins" I turn and jump into the water, leaving her alone, standing in the cave.
