Seven Months Later
Vivienne
Down, through the trees I went. I wouldn't let them catch me, I wouldn't.
This was just something I had to do.
I quickly climbed over a large boulder, and ran towards the loot.
I heard yells and shouts behind me.
But I wouldn't listen to them.
With one large leap, I grabbed the flag.
Cheers erupted from around me, and the rest of the blue team hoisted me up onto their shoulders.
We had won capture the flag.
After the game, during dinner, I picked up my food and headed towards the tables.
Two blonde-headed people waved me over to their table-my best friend, Annabeth Chase, and my boyfriend, Malcolm Ace.
Sometimes I tried to forget what happened half a year ago. I try to forget how everyone used to hate me, and how I used to attack them. I tried to forget Derek, who was sitting at the Ares table, a big black burn on the side of his face. I tried to forget about the scar running through my eye whenever I looked in the mirror.
Sometimes it was just easier to forget.
And as I made my way to their table, o thought about how lucky I was. I wasn't being bullied (that much) anymore, I had awesome friends, and awesome siblings.
I smiled at Annabeth and Malcolm as I took the spot between them.
I was about to spill about my sentimental thoughts when a bucket of ice cold water spilled on my head.
"Oops, my bad," Connor said, grinning.
"Stoll!" I jumped out of my seat and started chasing him.
"Come and get me, Greek Fire Princess!"
Sometimes it's easier to forget. But sometimes, it's easier to let the memories honor you forever.
A/N: So...this is probably my shortest story yet…
Until I post lone one-shots…
I just want to say thank you for all of the support you have given me, even when my mouse was hovering over the delete button. This story was originally going to be much, much longer, but I have some other ideas that I need to post, and with this story in progress, my four-story-at-a-time-limit will be breached.
So be sure to check out my new stories when they come.
Thanks!
Bie!
