Oliver

I tried to keep myself under control, while following Percy into Defense Against the Darks Arts, but I had the greatest urge to cry. While crying myself to sleep last night, I thought my eyes would be dried out today, but I could felt hot pressure pushing from behind my eyes.

"Are you alright, Oliver?" Percy asked.

I turned to him, meeting his sad blue eyes. "No." my eyes fell away from his. I didn't want to worry him, but I couldn't lie to him. It just seemed like telling a teacher you were going to cheat. There wasn't anything that made sense about it.
