AN: Hey guys. Here's the new chapter. I finally got back around to updating my PJO story. It'd been a while, and since I finished Mark of Athena recently, I had some inspiration for it again. Check it out if you want. It's probably OOC, but..I did as well as I could, and am still writing on it between this and my Teen Wolf story.
To those who reviewed:
Guest: Yeah, I'm alright now. Just a slight scare. One of my cousins just startled me a bit during Judo and weapons training. Meh, Dani, one of my elder cousins, got it off of me. He took a mini sword to it. I believe it is made of Titanium, though. Glad you liked the chapter!
Spamano4ever: It's okay. Dani did. After I broke a pair of scissors trying to do it without cutting myself with them. Scared the shit out of me doing so..bloody git got a mini sword out and used it. Because he wanted to scare some sense into me. It is cute. Imagining that scene as I wrote it really made me smile.
Enjoy.
Lovino was still smiling slightly when he got home from work that day, making Antonio grin. "Good day at work?"
"Kind of."
Antonio nodded and smiled, watching Lovino disappear to get changed.
As soon as the Italian came back, he curled up beside Antonio.
Antonio kissed Lovino's cheek. "So..wanna tell us what happened?"
Lovino shrugged. "People at work just surprised me, is all."he said softly.
Antonio nodded in understanding then. He wasn't surprised to hear this.
Nobody seemed too bothered with Lovino's silence when he fell silent. It had become normal. He'd zone out at random moments, coming back around sometime after the coversation had passed. They'd learned to expect it.
Still, things were calm again fro a change, so they were determined to keep it that way.
Lovino had been the first one asleep that night, and was the first one awake the following morning.
It was odd, how normal this routine had become for the Italian, who was normally scattered through millions of different routines due to work and school.
Even so, Lovino was glad it was normal now. It was far too stressful to be on different schedules due to work and school and stuff.
This way was easier.
Much easier.
Short, I know. I'm sorry.
