Chapter 3: Nome
Will left the day before I did. Now I have no one I can cry to. Chiron and I sat in the terminal waiting for the plane to hell, I mean Nome. There was an awkward silence between me and Chiron for the Whole. Nine. Hour. Flight.
When we finally landed, it was 20 degrees. What the hell I thought it was October. We grabbed our bags and before I could get out of the main door, my Aunt Karen sprinted towards me and nearly knocked me down while hugging me.
"Oh my god, Cecilia, you're so grown up. I can't believe it. I haven't seen you in forever," Aunt Karen just kept going on and on until she spotted Chiron, "Umm, who are you?"
"Forgive me for not introducing myself. My name is Mr. Brunner, I accompanied Ms. Brown," Chiron said while shaking hand with her.
"Oh well then it's a pleasure to meet you," Karen said, "Let me get your bags. Mr. Brunner, how long are you staying?"
"Oh well I'm actually hopping on another plane in about an hour. Cecilia this is for you. It's from me and Will," he pulled out a small box with a blue ribbon on it, "I'll see you next summer, Cecilia," and with that he left to go to his terminal.
"What does he mean?" Karen asked as we left to go to her car.
"Oh he's the director of the summer camp I go to," I stared at the box.
"Oh and who's Will," she raised her eyebrow and looked at me suspiciously.
"He's just a friend," She just nodded and hopped in the car.
We got to her house and I had forgotten what it looked like. It was two stories, white with a gray trim. We walked in and saw a beautiful husky with one blue and one brown eye.
"Hey buddy," I said while petting him.
"That's Pepper," she said, "Your room is upstairs, last door on the right."
I walked upstairs my suitcase in one hand, the blue box in the other. I opened up the door to find a desk in one corner, a bed with aqua bedding and a T.V. I sat on the bed and carefully opened the box. There was a letter
Cecilia,
I saw this and thought of you, write to me.
-Will
Inside was also a bracelet with a single boar charm. I put on the bracelet and counted the beads on my leather necklace. 10 beads, one bead for every year, I had been going to Camp Half-Blood for 10 years. I carefully locked the door and took the spray bottle out of my bag along with a Drachma. I sent an iris message to Will. His apparition immediately appeared after I gave Iris my offering.
"What's up C" he said
"Not much I'm here in Nome. It's 20 degrees and they call this October."
"Wait what damn if it's 20 now I wonder what it'll be like in December,"
"Uggghhh, don't even warn me. I just called to tell you I love the bracelet."
"I knew you would." He turned around for a second then said "I got to go my Dad's callin'. I'll call you later."
"KK bye." And just like that he was gone.
**I know the Cullens haven't been in here yet but don't worry they'll be in here the next chapter. I promise**
