《Bruce's Best Friend - Discontinued》Chapter 4

Advertisement

Percy ended up winning the war and was immensely relieved when she remained alive. Now that her troubles were over, she could go back to visit her best friend, and hopefully something more, Bruce. But first, the gods had to speak with them.

When they offered her immortality, she hesitated. She looked at Annabeth, who didn't know about Bruce. She looked tired and defeated, but also sad. She seemed to think that Percy would take it.

But then Percy thought about Bruce. He was fully mortal and would only live so long. Staying the same and age having to watch him grow up would kill her. Not to mention she couldn't fathom living after he had passed away. She knew her answer.

"No," she had spoken firmly and clearly to the council.

After everyone had settled back into camp, Percy kept trying to find the time to visit him, but there was always rebuilding, healing, consoling, and recruiting to do. Cabins and weapons had to be reconstructed. Injured demigods needed to be tended to. People who had lost siblings, friends and lovers had to be cheered up. And with Percy's wish, demigods kept popping up like flies and the camp had grown tremendously. They even had to expand some cabins and tables.

She and the other campers had gotten much closer. Not to mention, Nico visited more frequently, which she was really happy about. He seemed to be better, happier and Percy was glad that her baby cousin was spending more time with people and less time with the dead.

Finally, near the end of summer, when the camp had fallen back into its routine, she finally found the time to visit Bruce. She told Annabeth not to schedule any classed for her to take or teach the next day because she had to visit a close mortal friend. Annabeth raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything.

After the campfire, Annabeth hugged Percy goodnight and headed back to her own cabin.

The next morning, when Percy didn't show up to breakfast, Annabeth was worried. She never missed out on food. She went to the Poseidon cabin and knocking hesitantly before going inside. All Percy's stuff was still there, untouched. Her bed was messy, and the blanket was lying crumpled around the mattress. But Percy was gone.

A.N. Again, I know its a short chapter, but that's the way I planned it. The next couple chapters aren't going to be that long either.
