”hug me, bring it in. wont you loosen up would ya?”

you were grumpy, you had been for a while. you never smiled much, barely ever wore colours, you never made physical contact with anyone. except when you got forced to wear the bright orange camp half-blood t-shirt, you were anything but happy. percy was quite the opposite, he wore whatever colours he had, smiled at most people and loved hugging people. when people heard we were friends, they were beyond shocked. the only time percy ever saw you crack a smile was when he brought you strawberries from the mess hall. you guys were on a quest, percy had just fallen from the arch and was by the sea, leaning on the railing. you ran up to him, embracing him tightly.

“you massive idiot.” you mutter, your voice was muffled due to your head being buried in his shoulder.

“well im here, arent i?” he chuckles.
