~~~~~~~~~~You Promised~~~~~

Thalia's P.O.V

He wasn't supposed to be here. He died. He died a hero. He showed no signs of being possessed anymore. With him being back, I was fighting internal emotions that I hadn't felt in a while. One of them, I wasn't supposed to feel.

Annabeth looked over in shock; I gave her an apologetic look. She nodded and smiled weakly as she ran over to Percy. Luke kept looking up at me. He was going to be okay. Well physically, but people were scared of him. Except for me. I know something changed. He no longer has his scar. If that doesn't scream that something is different than I don't know what does.

"Do you need to go to the infirmary? " I said down to him and looked into her caramel brown eyes.

"No, I'm good." He smiled and sat up. I hadn't seen that smile in forever. And I mean forever. And to be honest, I missed it more then I should of. Maybe I lov- NO stop Thalia, you're a huntress. Sworn off boys. Yet again, I can quit. Gods I'm an emotional wreck.

"Your hair is so long," he said helping me off the ground; "I like it." He smiled, again. I blushed. Dammit Thalia get your emotions in check. If any of the hunters see yo-

"Thalia! What the heck was that!" One of the Hunters ran over. It was Paris, she was a close friend, even though she was a daughter of Aphrodite.

Luke's smile soon faded into a frown as he started to realize the silver jackets. I gave him an apologetic look. He weakly smiled back, then turned and ran somewhere into camp.

"Thalia," Paris said softly, "Let's get back to the cabin before dinner and the campfire." She looked at me sadly. I looked down and nodded sadly.

We walked back to the cabin and I quickly unpacked my small bad. I found a small mirror just to see how long my hair was. The long midnight black hair was down to my upper back, about four inches below my shoulder. I decided to braid it down the side before we went to dinner.

Soon enough it was time to load us all into the dinning pavilion. Oh the fun. Note the sarcasm. I sat with the rest of the hunters, not eating much. Why did Luke look so sad earlier? Something, something wasn't right. I kept looking up at the Hermes table just to see him sitting alone. None of his siblings would even acknowledge him. People kept throwing dirty looks at the guy. He silently picked at the food on his plate.

"That's it…" I said and stood. I grabbed my plate, and walked over to the Hermes table. I put my plate across from him. He looked up at in confusion.

"What the hades do you think you're doing?" he questioned me.

"Luke you should know better than to question me. " I smirked. I realized how many people were actually staring at me. It started to annoy me. I realized the hunters were looking at me as if I were crazy, well all except for Mason. She silently smirked and smiled as if proud.

"You know all these people are staring at you like your crazy… right?" he whispered to me. I noticed the dinning pavilions regular noises had silenced. I finished what I was chewing and then stood.

"What in the name of Zeus's master bolt are you all staring at!? Can't you tell he's not possessed or evil! Look! He's missing his scar! He isn't threatening to kill any of you! Why are you so scared!?"

Luke looked down and his plate. Everyone else looked up at me like I was crazy, except for one who stood a joined my side.

"Luke was never evil in the first place! He was just manipulated and possessed by Kronos!" Annabeth came to help my case.

I smiled at her. We were bound together. There was no replacing our experiences as a trio.

A random kid of Apollo rose to argue. "Just by saying that he lost his scar is not saying much! He could still be evil! And Annabeth, he was evil! He threatened the safety of the camp! Thalia, he basically poisoned your tree!"

I gave the kid a glare, "Yes he did, but if he hadn't Kronos would have rose, and I would still be a tree! He had good intentions! Even when Kronos was in his head, he was trying to fight him!" I looked over to Luke in support. Luke looked down and stood.

"It wasn't me! I swear. It was Kronos the whole time. Like actually Kronos. He locked me up, used my form to weaken the camps good reputation. Please believe me." He mumbled something else in which I brushed off as something non-important.

People whispered between themselves, then continued to eat. I would hope they would take thought to what he had said.

"Thalia, c-can I talk to you?" Luke asked me, his face had grown sad.

"Uh yah sure." I shrugged and followed him out of the dinning pavilion. Outside the sun was just setting behind the horizon making the sky different shades of yellows, gold, reds, and oranges. Luke rubbed the back of his neck nervously.

"Thanks Thalia, I really appreciate you standing up for me…"

I smiled at hi, "It was no big deal, Lady Artemis might question it, but Im not sure about being a huntress any more.." It was true. So many emotions swirled inside me. Some that a huntress should not feel.

"Luke," I paused, "I missed you….. like a lot."

He slightly smiled at me. Before I fully realized what I was doing, I wrapped my arms around Luke's neck. I had to reach up because his height towered above mine.

"Thalia, I missed you a lot more…" I looked up at him, and before I knew it his lips were on mine. I liked it. No I loved it. It felt so right. But I was a hunter of Artemis. I couldn't do this. But I stayed for a moment longer, then suddenly realized what was actually happening.

I pulled away from him. "Luke, I-Im sorry, I just cant…. I." I turned and ran for the forest. Why did my emotions have to be so screwed up.
