Work Text:

“It’s not true, is it Chiron? It can’t be true!”

 

His sad face told Annabeth everything, however much she didn’t wan’t to believe him.

 

”Have a seat, Annabeth.”

 

 

And I made some real big mistakes

But you make the worst one look fine

 

How dare he betray her

They were a family, the three of them were a FAMILY.

 

I should have known it was strange

 

she should have known earlier- helped- fixed their family before it crumbled into nothing

she should have known

 

You only come out at night

 

His sleepless nights, always leading him to be exhausted during the day. He tried to hide it, but she knew him

She thought she knew him.

 

I used to think, I was smart

But you made me look so naive

 


He was gone, Thalia was gone, and she was all alone

Just a tiny, dumb little kid

 

The way you sold me for parts

 

Her role model, her most trusted mentor, was playing her all along

 

As you sunk your teeth into me, oh

 

She screamed and wailed and cried, but he didn’t care

He NEVER cared.

 

Blood sucker

Dreamcrusher

Bleedin’ me dry like a damn vampire

 

 

“Family, Luke. You promised.” she whispered, hugging her knees close.
