I'm extremely sorry that I haven't updated, but I'm having extreme family problems. I'm sorry, seriously, but I couldn't update with the problems. I'll try to update Lesson: Love and Count the Stars (yes, I did change the title for Forever and Always) and a few one-shots. So, yeah. I decided to do this one-shot because I heard this song for the Hunger Games Soundtrack on YT, and thought it would fit PJO. I wrote this author's note after I wrote this one-shot, so I don't know if I like this, honestly! I just decided to write it. Please tell me what you think. Good, bad? Enjoy!
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
They were lying together in their bed, listening to the war outside their window. The fighting, the weapons, the words, everything violent. But, not them. They were sick of the war already, they were sick of the blood and the enemies. They just wanted to be together.
"Close your eyes," the sea green-eyed boy murmed to the blonde. She obeyed. He gathered her in his strong arms, and she cuddled into him. He looked at the window, and it was turning to night with the sun going down. He kissed her cheek and whispered, "I love you." She gently kissed him on the lips, not wanting to ruin the moment. He gripped her tightly, not wanting to let go, and not wanting her to be hurt if something happens.
Annabeth looked out the window, and she wanted the morning light to come. The dark, stormy sky was reminding her of the war. Percy noticed his worries and whispered.
"You and I'll be safe and sound."
She believed him.
