Hello! So I've figured out that I'll probably post on Mondays, Fridays and maybe Wednesdays. This is the part two to the Charlena story by Ruth. Please review and we don't own anything so no suing.
I walk with Charlie to Half-Blood Hill. Blackjack is following and Charlie has a backpack on. Clarisse, Nyssa, and Chiron walk with us as well. He's getting ready to go get Percy. Nyssa gives her brother a hug and Chiron pats his back. Clarisse mumbles a goodbye.
Tears well in my eyes and I do my best to push them back. I can't cry right now. One slips from my eye and Charlie wipes it with his thumb.
"You should have more faith in me, dear. Do you really think I'm going to fail?" Charlie jokes, cracking a smile. I laugh lightly at him.
He moves hair out my face and his hand cradles my cheek. I subconsciously lean into the touch. He gives me a soft smile.
"You have nothing to worry about. It's going to be fine." Charlie tells me.
"You're right. Just be careful." I tell him, more tears in my eyes. He pulls me into a hug and I hug back. He kisses the top of my head while I cry into his shirt. When there's no tears left to cry, for now, I pull away.
"I'll be careful, Silena." Charlie tells me. I nod my head and smile a small smile.
I kiss him and he kisses back. It's full of so much love, I feel content and I don't worry.
We pull away and Charlie mounts Blackjack. He waves and Blackjack flies in the air.
"Come on, girl." Clarisse says, leading me towards the hearth. We sit down and I lean my head on her shoulder.
"He'll be okay, right?" I ask her.
"He'll be okay," she reassures me.
I nod and stare out at the fire. It crackles and we sit here until the camp starts to buzz with life. I know it's hard to tell if he'll be okay, but I just start to hope he will be.
