Always Together

Piper´s POV
A week has passed since I receive the IM from Lilly. I can’t believe that Percy and Annabeth broke up. Each time I see them, I ask myself, what happen with the lovely couple, that used to light up the camp? Things have been really bad and awkward since then.

Annabeth and Percy ignore each other, they don’t even look into each other’s eyes! Percy stay most of his time at the sword arena or at the beach; Annabeth read more than usual (I guess she try to keep her brain busy, so she wouldn´t think about Percy), she spend time with that Apollo kid, Erick.

That guy have something to do with this I can feel it, and I’m going to find it out. But first I need I need to help my friends to be together again. And for that reason I’m going to talk to Annabeth.

Annabeth´s POV
A week, I can’t believe I have been without him for so long. My heart hurts and bleed each time I see my bracelet, what happen with “Always Together”? I ask myself over and over again.

I had try to get rid of the bracelet, but I can´t it always reappear in my wrist, I guess this was the magic that Percy talked about, dam that guy thought in everything. For been honest part of me don´t want to get rid of the bracelet, I guess I don’t want to lose him.

I miss his eyes, his humor, his smile, that sweet and honest smile, that no matter what it makes me smile. His lips, Gods, I miss them so badly, because each time that his lips touch mines, make my heart skip a beat. But most of all, I miss his arms, because his arms are like a shield that protect me from everything especially nightmares.

Nightmares chase me every night, even when I was with Percy, but at least he could calm me down. Now that I´m alone they are just getting worst in all the meaning of the word.

Suddenly someone knock the door of my cabin taking me away from my thoughts. While I was walking toward the door I had a hope that maybe just maybe, Percy was going to be at the other side of the door. But no, it was Piper.

“Hi, May I come in?” she ask politely.

“Sure” I said stepping at a side so she may enter.

“How you doing?” she ask with concern in her voice. I can´t lie to Piper, I mean she is my best friend, beside she know me very good to know if I’m lying to her. And then, is when I couldn´t hold back tears.

“No” I said shacking my head while crying.

“Oh, Annabeth” she hugged me and help me to calm down.

Piper´s POV
I never saw Annabeth so hurt, ok, maybe when Percy disappeared for eight month. Once Annabeth had calm down, I start asking.

“Could you tell me what happened that day?” I ask. She nod and wiped the tears from her cheeks.

“I was arguing with Drew about the theme for the party, and when we asked Percy, he choose Drew’s Idea” she said.

“It’s, ok breathe” I said, before she continue.

“Then, everything happened so fast, I start screaming at him, accusing him to be cheating on me, and then he start screaming, and the last thing I know was that we had just broke up” Annabeth had just finish, when a couple of tears escape from her eyes.

“Why don’t you apologies!” I ask.

“Never. He is the one who must apologies, at the end he was the one who was cheating on me!”

“What? Who told you that?”

“Erick, and I believe him!” So is in this part of the story, were Erick appear.

“Why do you believe him? You know Percy since you two were twelve! While you only know Erick for a couple of months!” I could see that my comment hurt her.

“You know what, I don’t want to continue talking about this. Please Piper, leave. I want to be alone!” She said avoiding my gaze.

“OK, but remember, you are in this, because you want to!” I reply and then I just leaved.
