` ❀ 𝓒ause after all this time I'm still into you . ݁ ꒱

– The sun shone brightly over Camp Half-Blood, but Will Solace didn’t feel the warm rays like he used to. He was in the infirmary, trying to distract himself with herbs and cures, but his mind was elsewhere. Ever since you started dating a son of Hermes, he felt more and more tangled up in feelings of confusion and jealousy.

The son of Hermes was charismatic, full of energy and mischief, and his smile seemed to light you up in a way that Will couldn’t ignore. It was as if every time you got close to him, a part of your heart broke a little more. He remembered the moments you shared, the laughter and the promises, and now it all seemed like a distant memory.

At lunch, Will sat with some friends at the table of the children of Apollo, but he couldn’t pay attention to the conversation. He looked towards the table of the children of Hermes and saw you laughing, your face lit up as your new boyfriend made exaggerated gestures, trying to make you laugh more. A knot formed in his stomach.

His gaze drifted back to you, now applauding the antics of the son of Hermes. Your laughter still echoed in his mind, a sound he missed.

Finally, unable to bear the sight any longer, he stood up abruptly and decided to take a walk. He needed air, a moment to think. As he walked, thoughts piled up. What had happened between you? You had broken up, yes, but the truth was that Will had never gotten over the breakup.

As he walked, his path took him to the clearing, where he hoped to get away from the commotion. But not long after, you appeared, with the son of Hermes right behind you, the boy’s vibrant energy becoming almost palpable.

– “Hi, Will!” – you called, waving to him. – "Would you join us? He has some great stories!" –

The joy on your face was infectious, but to Will, it was like a knife. He forced a smile. – "Oh, no, I'm right here." –

– "Oh, come on! It'll be fun!" – You insisted, stepping closer. The boy behind you stepped forward.
