I do not own these wonderful characters.
AnnabethPOV
He couldn't mean that. He would have to go back soon and I would have to stay here. I would not beg him to stay. What I felt was in the past; I moved on. Well maybe not but, I have to move on. I stared at the dark ceiling of my room until I slipped into a dreamless sleep.
When I got up I changed into some work out clothes before pulling my hair up. Every morning I jog around the park a few blocks from my apartment. As much as I wanted to focus on the fact that he did miss me when he was gone, I couldn't. His place was, now, with the other Gods. It felt so weird to think of the boy who drooled in his sleep as a God, it would have been comical if not for the fact that this was why he was going to leave again.
I rounded the corner on the last block and saw the park. The children screaming with joy and their parents sitting with blissful smiles as they watched their children play. I wished that I could be that carefree again. I started my run as usual, watching the trees pass by me and the light reflecting on the leaves. My mind however began to wander and I soon could only focus on feelings. Feelings of anger for being abandoned. Feelings of hate for letting myself care. Feelings of sadness for knowing that it was all going to happen again when he decides to leave. I have been coming out here to run it has become instinct to start jogging at the sandbox, but right as I was going to slow down I ran staring into someone. I looked up at who I ran into and groaned. This was just my luck.
AN: Sorry for the long wait RL got to real. Any ideas who Annabeth might have run into? I am hoping to update soon.
