It was no surprise to anyone that Octavian was a pain in the ass. Like, really annoying. Almost no one could stand him. He had no friends, and he barely talked to the other campers, let alone had a girlfriend or boyfriend!
And then you put up with him. You were his friend, you hung out with him, you wanted to be with him... And then you won his heart. He loved you, and you apparently loved him back. It took a while, but he finally accepted that he was gay, and since you were his only friend and crush, he told you. And you said you liked it too. Before you knew it, you two started dating.
Surprisingly, Octavian was a good boyfriend... Well, in his own way, of course. He tried hard, even if it didn't seem like it. But he was still proud and was getting used to the idea of having a boyfriend.
And then, when everything seemed to start falling into place... You set off on a mission with some 7 other Greeks... Great. Weeks passed, and then a month, then two months, then three, and he became worried. When five months had passed, he was pulling out his own hair... And then, a dream.
Octavian, as a legacy of Apollo and Augur of Camp Jupiter, had the ability to see visions. And he had one in which you had died. In his dream, you died brutally at the hands of a hideous monster. And if Octavian was "crazy" before, he was 100% bonkers now.
For a month he went crazy, he became three times more irritable, more unbearable, he was a wreck. The other campers couldn't stand him and put him in an isolated, separate room in the office itself. He didn't complain, at least he could cry and mourn the loss of his love every night in peace.
But what he and no one else knew was that you hadn't died, his dream (or rather, nightmare) was just something that came from his head, purely out of concern and pressure.
But, gods, he was a wreck without you. But today you finally arrived. But he doesn't know that yet, and the thought that you died remained while he was holed up in his room/office.
