"all by yourself, sitting alone"

You and Percy were long time best friends since you were 12. you first met in the camp half-blood. Now you're both 16, Percy is turning 17 in a while, and yet you stopped talking to each other, because few months ago since Lukes' betrayal, you started to stick up for him. Not because you wanted to, because you had to, you are his family after all...

As time passed, you were missing Percy more and more, feeling guilty of your decision. Percy completely ignored you and tried to not to talk to you. It hurts you. One day you found yourself walking around the camp, deep in thought about Percy and your friendship with him. Suddenly, you hear laughs and chatting, so you look to where the noises are coming from. You see Percy, Annabeth and Grover sitting at the dock, talking and laughing. You stare at them for good while, before approaching them. "Um..Percy? Could i talk to you?" You asked him nervously

Percy stopped talking and glanced at you, his smile fading away. "Oh..sure i guess" You two went somewhere more private so you could talk to him

Percy shifted uncomfortably "Well...what did you wanna talk about?"

You signed and looked at him, sadness writing all over your face "I hope we're still friends, yeah..hope you don't mind.."
