Your pov

"YOU FOUND ME!" Drew took me by surprise and hugged me.

"I-Um-"

"I-I mean it took you guys long enough" She rolled her eyes with disgust, quickly pulling away from the embrace.

"You got her?" Jason ran in the room. 

"Oh hey~" Drew twirled her hair.

"I-Um ok well let's go the giant won't stay there for long" 

Leo ran in, "You got her!!" and he hugged me.

"Yea" I smiled shyly. 

"Oh look it's re-WAIT. EEEKKKK PIPER IS ACTUALLY HELPFUL FOR ONCE!"

"Um what?" Jason asked.

"The Aphrodite cabin was planning to get you two together!!" Drew squealed. Drew may be a snob, but she was still a child of Aphrodite.

"Wait so Piper was trying to get us together?!" I exclaimed.

Leo and I turned towards Jason, but he was half way out of the room.

"JASON GRACE!" Leo yelled.

"Guys come-Why is Leo chasing Jason?" Percy came in.

"BECAUSE JASON AND PIPER WERE TRYING TO GET LE-" I quickly covered Drew's mouth.

"No time for chit chat lets go." I said. The rest of the group came in the room, held onto one another. 

"To the ship?" Nico asked.

"To the ship"

~Time skip to the night~

"So what do you guys want to do?" I asked. I was still really shaken up from earlier's events and just wanted to go to put on a hoodie and going to bed. I still couldn't shake the feeling of when the sand pushed down on me and barely being able to breathe. How I thought I was gone, how I thought- 

"I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO ASK THAT!!" Leo screeched, interrupting my thoughts.

"Y/n control your boooooooooooyest friend" Annabeth caught herself quickly, eyeing Percy.

"So what's the idea?" Piper asked, trying to hide her laugh.

"We are going to sing! Haven't you guys missed it at camp?"

"Yeah actually" Nico rubbed the back of his neck.

"So we can do 1-2 songs depending on what time it is. Tonight I suggest one" Annabeth declared.

"Well who have we not heard sing before?"

"Y/n! You start us off" Percy smirked. "Everyone else has already sung before."

"U-um Im good" I mumbled.

"Oh come one Y/n! I think we all need some cheering up!" Percy said.

"F-fine. Any song?"

"Any song."

Well here goes nothing.

Leo's pov

Y/n took a deep breath and started,

"We may not yet have reached our glory,
But I will gladly join the fight
And when our children tell their story
They'll tell the story of tonight" We all were stunned by my girlfriend's amazing voice.

"They'll tell the story of tonight"  Percy murmured.

"Have you ever felt like nobody was there?
Have you ever felt forgotten in the middle of nowhere?
Have you ever felt like you could disappear?
Like you could fall, and no one would hear?" Y/n resumed, looking away.

"Well, let that lonely feeling wash away" I smiled at my girlfriend.

"All we see is light" Annabeth sung, closing her eyes, swaying softly.

"Cause maybe there's a reason to believe you'll be okay" I sung, walking over to Y/n.

"For forever" Annabeth leaned onto Percy and Percy wrapped his arm around her.

"Cause when you don't feel strong enough to stand
You can reach, reach out your hand" I wiped away a tear from Y/n's cheek.

"And oh" I sung.

"Raise a glass to freedom
Something they can never take away" Y/n started again.


"Oh" Annabeth continued, but this time with Piper.


"No matter what they tell you"


"Someone will come running
To take you home" Percy joined.


"Raise a glass to all of us
Tomorrow there'll be more of us
Telling the story of tonight"


"Out of the shadows" Nico sung.

"The morning is breaking" Will sung. 

"They'll tell the story of tonight" Y/n continued.

"And all is new" All the boys sang.
"All is new" All the girls chorused.
"All is new" This time everyone joined in.

"It's only a matter of
time" Everyone but Y/n said.

"Even when the dark comes crashing through
When you need a friend to carry you
When you're broken on the ground" Y/n said, coming to sit down. 

"You will be found" The rest of group said.

"So let the sun come streaming in
Cause you'll reach up and you'll rise again
If you only look around" Y/n leaned on my shoulder.

"You will be found" 9 people sung.

"And when our children tell their story"

"You will be found"

"They'll tell the story of tonight" Y/n held the note.

"Whoa" We all chorused.

"No matter what they tell you" Y/n sung softly, realizing everyone else was asleep.

"Tomorrow there'll be more of us" I whispered back.

"Telling the story of tonight
The story of tonight" We sang.

"I love you Leo"
