You took fateful hit to your shoulder in a last attempt to block an attempt of attack on Percy. Your arms was bit in a burning pain that leaking to every inch of your body. Your body swooned and shook as you felt like someone was pulling at your muscles. Your vision blurred and you blinked slowly, being tossed in and out of a glooming dark void.

Everything around you was soft, a homey pine-salt smell that calmed your senses. Your eyes were blurred as you pushed them open. Everything ached in bitter pain. Your mind felt foggy like a hot shower with no ventilation. Your gaze wandered across the ceiling you were staring at. Trying to differentiate reality from a dream. Your eyes locked onto the fan that moved in repeated motion.

You kept up with the urge that pushed at you from the back of your mind to look around, gain your strength. Your eyes landed upon him. Percy Jackson. Your boy with the raven black hair and the salty sea-glass eyes that you always got lost in. His head in a slump, carried in his arms by the couch. His hand warmed up yours, in a tight grasp that grounded you to this reality. It took everything in you to squeeze his hand back.

His head spooked from his arms as he looked like he just got the best news in his life. “(Insert name)-..” His voice full of relief. His eyes pricked with tears as he softly kissed you on the hand. “Gods-, I was so worried. Don’t ever leave me again.” He said as a tear streaked across this cheek like a shooting star. You sweetly smiled at his comment. “I promise I won’t.” You jittered out. “Promise?” He softly asked.

” I promise.”
