I sat in my bed staring out the window. Rain was still pouring, streaming down the windows like an endless river.

I shuddered, wrapping the blanket tightly around my fragile body, feeling breakable as glass.

Listening to the radio softly, the wind blew all around me, and the trees swayed to the rhythm of the rain hitting the roof, trying to break in.

I realized...What if I didn't have to make the choice? Because I knew that I would hurt someone either way. Anyway I chose. What if I could just end it here? I wouldn't have to deal with pain. I wouldn't have to know what suffering truly meant.

No more pain.

No more Matt.

No more life.

I don't want to lose anyone anymore. I can't take another loss. And if my life is the sacrifice, then so be it.

I went to the bathroom and rummaged through the wooden cupboard for some medicine. With trembling hands, I searched the cabinet frantically until I felt the bottle of cold pills.

I took one out of the bottle and stared at it.

This is it.

No turning back.

"Please forgive me, Lord." I whispered before I put the first pill in my mouth.

I swallowed as many pills as I could, before I got so sick that I knew I could take another one without throwing up. It should have been enough because I started feeling the effects.

I got into my bed, holding my diary and closed my eyes, hopefully for the last time.

The radio was playing softly, like a lullaby or a farewell song.

Dry lightning cracks across the skies
Those storm clouds gather in her eyes
Her daddy was a mean old mister
Mama was an angel in the ground
The weather man called for a twister
She prayed blow it down

There's not enough rain in Oklahoma
To wash the sins out of that house
There's not enough wind in Oklahoma
To rip the nails out of the past

Shatter every window 'til it's all blown away,
Every brick, every board, every slamming door blown away
'Til there's nothing left standing, nothing left of yesterday
Every tear-soaked whiskey memory blown away,
Blown away

( 'Blown Away' By: Carrie Underwood)

I let a tear escape before I passed out, letting go of the light.


I ended up back in the same place where I first saw that little girl.

But this was different. The little girl was gone, but replaced with an independent looking girl, her full, beautiful grey eyes shining in the sunlight. Her golden, silky locks were cascaded down her back, and she had a lovely inviting smile on her face.

I was about to smile back, but then the face went dead. "Why?" She cried. "Why would you do this?" She screamed, gripping her head, like she had a horrible headache.

I tried to reach into the pond to help her, but the girl was gone.

But I knew better. I had to get out of here.

I ran.

I ran until my legs couldnt carry me anymore. This wasnt heaven. And it wasnt hell. So where was I?

I stopped when I saw my mother, in front of me.

"Mother!" I exclaimed. And ran into embrace. I knew this was her. I could feel her love and warmth radiating from her heart, unlike the demon that was in my nightmare.

"Annabells, what did you do?" She asked sweetly, but with a tone of disappointment.

"I don't wanna live anymore Mother. I wanna be with you!" I said, crying tears of joy. She was finally here. Back with me.

"No, no, no honey! This isn't right. God still has a plan for you. You've got your whole life laid in front of you! You can't just end it now!" She chastised, but not so that I would be hurt.

"But what's the point of living out his plan if you aren't there to be with me?" I asked, sobbing hysterically.

"Shh..." Mother said, stroking my hair. "It's okay. Annabeth, I was always with you. Always. I'm always watching over you, even though you never see me. I'm always there. In your heart."

She placed her tender hands over my heart, and hugged me tightly.

"I don't want to see that girl in the pond anymore." I said cracking, still shaking from my tears.

"And you wont." She promised. "That girl is the girl who was there long before. Weak, unreliable and emotionless." She spat.

"You on the other hand my dear," She began lifting up my chin so that our gazes locked on each other's stormy orbs.

"You are more than you ever will know. I see a courageous, compassionate, successful young woman who has not even lived yet. Not even experience love." Mother said sadly. "Please Annabells, do this for me. You know it's the right thing to do." She pleaded.

I wiped my tears away and gave her a tight squeeze before waking up, feeling her warmth be ripped away from me, leaving me empty.


I sat up gasping for air. The pills didn't work.

They didn't work! I realized, and gave a sigh of relief.

God has given me a second chance. To make things right again. And now I have to do what is right-to say goodbye to the only person I have loved.

I walked to the school, quickly, afraid I would miss Percy there. But he was waiting for me, with a bright smile on his face;his jade-like eyes shining brightly.

Hey Annabeth." He said charmingly before pulling me into his snug embrace.

I pushed away slightly. "Percy I need to-"

"Before you say anything, Annabeth, I wanted to give you something." He interrupted.

"I know you've been going through a rough time and I just wanted to give you this to remember us by." He said smiling nervously, opening a box revealing the most beautiful necklace I've ever seen in my whole life.

It had an 'A' on it, with little charms that dangled slightly when he held it up. He put it around my neck and I touched it carefully, afraid that it would somehow break.

"Percy." I stated again.

He turned to see my troubled, silvery eyes. "Yeah?"

"I'm...I'm sorry." I said, not knowing how to respond.

"What do you mean?" He asked, confused, his eyebrows furrowing.

I took off my necklace and put it back into his hand, and closing his fingers over it until I couldn't see it's beauty anymore.

"Annabeth," He asked, "What are you doing?"

I whispered softly and slowly, looking into those eyes the whole time. "I can't be with you anymore Percy."

I felt eyes turn and stare, knowing that one of them was my black mailer, coming to make my life hell.

The gleam in his eyes turned dead, and he looked at me with despair.

He opened up my clenched hand and put the necklace in it, turned around and walked away.

I held back a tear, and looked up to see the guy in the black, mysterious cloak again, staring at me with those sapphire-like eyes. I still couldn't see his face, but I knew he was smiling, seeing that I have completed my job.

I turn around and ran home, surprised that no tears were coming. I couldn't seem to cry. I felt a sharp pain in my head,and I dropped to my knees. It felt like my head was burning, and my vision was giving out.

God gave me a second chance, but with a warning. I shouldn't have taken life for granted. It was a gift that I didn't hold precious enough.

But then realization sunk in, before my body gave out.

I have just hurt Percy Jackson: The only person I cared for in this whole entire, messed up world.

And with that, I collapsed onto the cold, hard ground, with Percy's necklace still in my hand.
