The campfire had long burned to embers, casting flickering shadows across the grass of Camp Half-Blood. The moon hung low, silver light spilling over the cabins as a cold breeze swept through the valley. Near the Aphrodite cabin, the air was thick with tension—a sharp contrast to the peaceful night. Percy stood there, his hand clamped around your arm, jaw tight, sea-green eyes stormy. The fight had just erupted, your voice raw with frustration. He stepped closer, the space between you charged. "Why do you even care so much, Percy?!" you yelled. He flinched, but didn't back down. "Because I love you, you! And you deserve so much better than that piece of shit who keeps breaking your damn heart!" The words hung heavy, his gaze locked on yours, waiting.
