Chapter 16
Sorry I haven't updated in a while. I've started high school, and I have to keep up on that.
Adrian POV
Psyche just had some crazy nightmare about us losing. It was apparently very graphic. I don't think she's doing so well, but we have to focus on the mission. That's what she said. I don't like how she's doing. They say that trauma makes you stronger. But I think it just messes you up.

I arranged a meeting with Logan and May about all this.
"I feel like Hyperion did a number on her. I don't think she's eating, or even sleeping." Logan said.
"I know. She's just been so distant." May added.
"You think we should talk to her?" I asked.
"Let's wait a bit. These things take time." Logan said.
Psyche POV
I was lying in my bed, thinking on how to find the Titans, when I saw a flashing light appear in my room. I thought someone was attacking us, so I grabbed my sword, and waited. When the flashing stopped, there was a familiar face.
"Hello, Psyche Jackson. How are you feeling? Aside from incredibly repressed about your emotions at the moment?" Apollo joked.
"I'm fine. Leave me alone, please." I said tiredly.
He took on a more serious expression. "I know you're not fine. Your grandfather sent me here to make you feel better," he said. "I always find that covering a song that resonates with me helps."
It was weird, but I guess I could try it.
"Alright. How do we start?" I asked.
"Now would be good." He responded.
All right. Let's do this.
…
I should've let you know, that you're my only one
I know you're feeling numb, I'll **** you 'til you ***
Said, "I don't understand, how you don't got a man"
You want me in your bed, 'cause I've been in your head
You've been up all night, so you don't wanna wait on me
I'm 'bouta catch my flight, so you don't gotta wait on me
No more, you don't wanna, you don't wanna
You don't wanna, you don't wanna, you don't wanna
You don't wanna, you don't wanna
I've been up a very long time, wonder why they hate on me
I don't wanna love myself, I'm praying that they all love me
'Cause you don't wanna, you don't wanna
You don't wanna, you don't wanna, you don't wanna
You don't wanna, you don't wanna
I should've let you know, that you're my only one
I know you're feeling numb, I'll **** you till you ***
Said, "I don't understand, how you don't got a man"
You want me in your bed, 'cause I've been in your head
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
I have to say, I felt a little bit better. But only a little. "Thanks. That felt kind of good."
"Of course. Are you sure you're okay?" he asked.
"Yeah." I lied.
…
Later, I got a call from May, saying she needed to tell me something. When I got there, I saw Logan, Adrian and May sitting in a circle.
"Is this an intervention or something? Because I did absolutely nothing." I said.
"No, Psyche. We're worried about you. You haven't eaten, you've barely been sleeping, and you've been so distant lately." May said.
"Come on, guys. I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me." I said.
There was some skepticism in their eyes, which changed to understanding, which changed to acceptance.
"All right. We'll give you time." Logan said.
