Ok so for the record I wrote all this at one time and I started at 8:00 sorry if it's short!
Chapter 6
Marie P.O.V
In the morning I woke up to my favorite song Secrets by OneRepublic. I let the song play for a moment then I got up and turned off my alarm. I set my IPhone on shuffle and it played the song that came to my mind whenever I saw Nico. A Thousand Years (By: Christina Perri):
Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
One step closer
[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this
One step closer
[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
One step closer
One step closer
[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
The whole time I sang to it I thought about Nico. My voice was an echoing melody that played across the room.
At Camp Half-Blood I was the girl who everyone thought was weird because of my "Anger Issues". I was never treated as an equal all I had was Percy, Grover, Juniper, Thalia, and… Nico. He had always been there and unlike the others understood how I felt. Then at Camp Chaos I had lots of friends and according to my friends I was beautiful but I was basically of limits because my all powerful brother was the co commander of Chaos's entire army. It sucked!
The song, She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5 then played. It was a good song that I knew by heart. It held a deep meaning that maybe, just maybe I would have a chance at love.
Finally when I finished getting ready I walked outside. Nobody was up yet and I had an hour before breakfast so I went and sat on the beach. The waves lapped up on to the shore then retreated… if only life were that simple. I knew that Nico probably didn't have the same feelings I have (A/N but he so does)… he just kissed me to be nice. I made a total fool of myself. I looked at my phone I had five minutes left of no one staring, pointing, or whispering at and about me. I got up and started my day of avoiding Nico… I would not make a fool of myself.
Percy P.O.V
I sat in thinking about what had happened after Marie ran off.
Flashback
I watched her run off into the woods. I knew not to go after her. When she was in these moods I learned to stay away. She hated it when people saw her cry. The Chaos Army knew her as Marie Snapton the fun, beautiful, stubborn girl that never showed anything put positive and strong attitudes that made your day a little brighter. No one but I, Zoe and maybe someone else knew the other part of her. The part that when she had first arrived at camp had horrible nightmares and the girl that cried herself to sleep when people at camp called her names and made fun of her.
Anyway when Annabeth had spoken to her like that, like she was a piece of garbage. I knew I had finally seen the real Annabeth. I felt as though my blood was boiling. I stared into Annabeth's once beautiful eyes that were now looked boring and dull compared to Zoe's eyes or Marie's. She looked at me and instead of an I-love-you-and-want-you-back look they held a power hungry look. I spat at her every word pure truth "I hate your guts. If you even get close to my sister you will suffer and I will take away your immortality." She looked at me an innocent look on her face and she had the nerves to say "I didn't do anything to her I don't know what's up with her but to me it looks like she still has her little anger issues." Just when I was about to slap her I didn't need to. Thalia stepped in front of Annabeth and slapped her hard across the face. "That is for hurting my little sister!" she said with a smile. I realized she was talking about Marie "Who by the way was more of a little sister then you ever were!" She then paused and slapped her across the face again and said "That's for breaking the heart of the person who, before you cheated on him, would have died for you." Then Thalia, Zoe, and I walked off.
End of Flashback
Thalia was a really good friend.
