A/N This is my first songfic ever and I thought I would try it out. Constructive critisim would be nice so I can know if what I wrote was okay. This was originally going to just be the song but then an idea popped into my head so I just decided to go with it. Oh and in case you're wondering I'm a Percabeth 팬 and not what ever combination of Luke and Annabeth's names make up their couple name. In case 당신 don't get the last part it's refering to the 로스트 Hero.
I was sitting on my 침대 alone when a bright light blinded me. I shielded my eyes and carefully laid Daedalus’s laptop on my pillow. Right beside my 침대 was a package. Now when you’re a Demigod packages popping out of nowhere isn’t so strange but 당신 still have to be careful. I gently picked it up just in case it was rigged 의해 one of Hermes’s kids, namely Conner and Travis Stroll. I flipped it over and my breath caught. Right there on the package was my name scrawled out in a very familiar handwriting but it was impossible he was dead. Suddenly a hand clamped down and my shoulder. I whipped around with his bronze 칼, 나이프 in my hand.
“Geez Annabeth are 당신 trying to kill the son of the Lord of the Underworld.”
I put my 칼, 나이프 away while rolling my eyes.
“Well Nico, if 당신 don’t want to die I suggest not sneaking up on somebody that 당신 know owns a knife. Why are 당신 here anyway?”
His gaze turned unsettled.
“What is it?” I prodded wanting to know what got him so worked up all of a sudden.
He pointed to the package behind me.
“Living people aren’t supposed to get mail from the dead.”
“So 당신 mean…”
Nico just nodded. I was both reluctant and keen to open the package at the same time.
“Are 당신 going to take this away from me then?” I asked half hopeful that he would and half hopeful that he wouldn’t.
Nico shook his head.
“I know that 당신 guys were 프렌즈 and didn’t really talk before he died since we all thought he was a traitor so I’ll allow it just this once.”
“Thank 당신 Nico.”
“No problem.”
He shadow traveled out of here and I was left staring at the package. What would it say and why would Luke want to talk to me now? I shook my head. Don’t think about that right now Annabeth just open the package and get it over with. Even though I was scared my hands already started the motions of opening the package. Inside I found a long letter and a…disc? I quickly read the letter not wanting to get too emotional about it but I didn’t succeed. At least I knew he was happy now and that he was trying for re-birth. Now the disc. That didn’t seem like Luke’s style but as soon as I popped the disk into my laptop 음악 started playing and a bunch of old memories and feelings stirred up inside of me.
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
I knew it. For the gods sake I knew it I just didn’t want to accept it. Even before 당신 left to serve Kronos I knew something was up, I just never expected this.
It's getting dark, and it's all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And it's coming over 당신 like it's all a big mistake
I trusted 당신 and 당신 betrayed me. When I think back I wonder how I didn’t see it. Everything, everything just went wrong. None of this should have happened. It was all a big mistake.
Oh, I'm holding my breath
Won't lose 당신 again
Something's made your eyes go cold
So many times I believed that 당신 would come back and make the right choice. But every time I 로스트 당신 the pain 당신 caused me just grew and grew. Those golden eyes weren’t yours. 당신 let Kronos take over your body. 당신 made the wrong choice and I don’t know if I’m strong enough to forgive you.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had 당신 figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all I wanted
I loved you. I admired you. I thought I knew you. I mean after six years of running from monsters with someone 당신 would think that 당신 knew them well. 당신 were always there for me until now. 당신 choose the wrong side and I had to watch 당신 suffer for it. 당신 used to be all I wanted but not anymore.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had 당신 figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now, I'm haunted
Those eyes. They weren’t yours but they haunted me. The thought that 당신 were gone forever utterly haunted me. Every time I saw 당신 I had this slim hope that maybe 당신 would go back to being the person I knew. The fact that I know your choice is made and our sides are fixed makes me feel like I can’t breathe.
Stood there and watched 당신 walk away
From everything we had
But I still mean every word I said to you
I…I had the chance to save 당신 but I didn’t. 당신 asked me to run away with 당신 like old times but I just stood there and watched 당신 walk away from me. I may have wondered what would have happened if I went with 당신 but all those words I said I meant.
He would try to take away my pain
And he just might make me smile
But the whole time I'm wishing he was 당신 instead
That may have been true before I got to really know Percy, but not anymore. Percy always stayed 의해 my side even when I spoke about you. I knew he didn’t like it but he stayed with me and listened anyway. In the end I realized that the one I truly loved was Percy but the pain 당신 caused me was immense. I thought 당신 would always stay 의해 my side. 당신 promised me. We all sweared to never leave each other like our families did. But the only one that ever stayed 의해 my side was Percy. 탈리아 may have left me but she had good intentions and that first time when she was turned into a pine tree, it wasn’t her fault. I can’t say the same about you.
Oh, I'm holding my breath
Won't see 당신 again
Something keeps me holding on to nothing
I keep holding on to the hope that maybe, just maybe you’ll realize the truth and come back. I thought that maybe if 당신 came back 당신 could be the Luke I once knew and loved.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had 당신 figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all I wanted
You’re not the same person 당신 used to be. You’re just not. The Luke I knew wouldn’t have been so easily tempted with what Kronos’s offers 또는 maybe 당신 were always like that and I just never noticed until now.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had 당신 figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now, I'm haunted
Our decisions were made a long time ago. We were past the point of turning back. When that 칼, 나이프 pierced 당신 I felt my breath catch. I didn’t want 당신 to leave me like this but I'm afraid there’s no turning back now.
I know, I know
I just know
You're not gone
당신 can't be gone, no
Right away I knew 당신 weren’t truly gone. When 당신 fell off that cliff I knew in my 심장 that 당신 were still alive. Even when Kronos possessed 당신 I could feel that 당신 were still there deep inside. A few times 당신 were able to gain control but it never was enough was it?
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had 당신 figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
Won't finish what 당신 started
당신 came to me because 당신 were scared of what Kronos might do with you. 당신 were scared to finish what 당신 started. 당신 wanted to escape from everything but your plans went terribly wrong when I didn’t accept your offer. At least in the end 당신 found yourself again and that’s what matters the most.
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had 당신 figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't go back, I'm haunted
The pain of thinking 당신 were gone forever I just couldn’t deal with it. The thought made it hard even for Percy to get near me. I tried to block out your face when I thought 당신 were gone but it never worked. Every time I thought of 당신 it felt like I couldn’t breathe anymore and what scared me the most, what haunted me the most was your face when 당신 finally told me that 당신 loved me and 당신 realized that I didn’t 사랑 당신 that way, at least not anymore.
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
Sure I know how thin our relationship has become but I never thought that we would be thrust apart so easily. Even my prophecy on that quest in the Labyrinth confirmed that I did 사랑 you. Now, now that line is broken and truly broken I feel like I'm ready to 옮기기 on. The moment I realized I didn’t really 사랑 당신 the way I loved Percy we were both set free. I was set free from the illusion of 사랑 and 당신 were set free from Kronos’s control. I never thought that I would see the 일 when I found someone I could truly be myself with and love. Someone who wouldn't run away. I’m sorry to say this but Luke, 당신 ran away like everyone else in my life. The only person that ever stayed 의해 my side was Percy. Even when everyone thought I was dead, Percy was the only one who stayed my 의해 side.
Never ever thought I'd see it break
Never thought I'd see it
I was about to shut off the song when I saw something appear on the screen.
I know now that you’re happy without me and all I want to say is the threats aren’t over yet even though Kronos is gone. I’d tell 당신 to talk to Chiron about it but he wouldn’t be able to answer you. Spend your time with Percy wisely because if what I think the fates have in store for 당신 is what it is then you’re going to have a Hades of an adventure.
-Love Luke
What the Hades did he mean 의해 that? A few weeks later I found out. Percy and I were so happy that we both had winter break at the same time. We had a bunch of things planned out. Okay I planned out everything but that was okay because this was the first time we would be able to see each other in person since summer. This would have been the happiest I had ever been except for the fact that Luke’s warning was always someplace in the back of my mind. I just couldn’t figure out what he meant. Me a Daughter of Athena not knowing what something meant. I didn’t find out until Percy kissed me right before we went to bed. The 다음 morning everything changed. Percy was gone. The one person that had never left me through everything that happened in our hectic Demigod lives went missing. Percy left me behind just like Luke did.
