I lay down on a soft bed in the Minerva cabin- a bed I now call mine. We’d just arrived at the Roman Camp, and I hated it. Every single inch. But…was I just so sour because Percy didn’t remember? Jason remembered some things! But Percy was clueless. I squeezed my eyes shut, I put my headphones in, and cranked up the music.
You were in college working part time waitin’ tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk with a fear of fallin’
Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts
I say "Can you believe it?
As we’re lying on the couch?"
The moment I can see it.
Yes, yes, I can see it now.
I remember the first time I saw Percy. I kinda zoned out, just for a second. Saw me with him. And then I told him he drooled in his sleep.
Do you remember, we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time.
Why can’t he remember anyone? Why can’t he remember me? Why? Jason remembers some things. But…when we first saw Percy, it was obvious he didn’t remember a thing.
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter.
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.
I WAS careful, being a daughter of Athena. My mother didn’t want us to be together. He was the best thing that had ever been mine.
Flash forward and we’re taking on the world together,
And there’s a drawer of my things at your place.
Sally often joked that I spent more time at their apartment than anywhere else.
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded.
My past; Thalia…Luke.
You say we’ll never make my parents’ mistakes.
We wouldn’t ever be rivals, would we? Or did being roman change that…
But we got bills to pay,
We got nothing figured out,
When it was hard to take,
Yes, yes, this is what I thought about.
Do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.
Why didn’t he remember me? I always thought about him. Why couldn’t he remember the time we were at the lake, and he put his arm around me?
Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.
Most of the cabins still had their lights on. We were there together. And maybe…I had thought that maybe we… could work. Like, as a pair. I loved him.
Oh, oh, oh
And I remember that fight
Two-thirty AM
As everything was slipping right out of our hands.
One fight. That’s all we had had. One, awful fight. About the stupidest things.
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the "Goodbye"
‘cause that’s all I’ve ever known
Nothing had even been permanent. Every time I thought I found a family, it had disappeared- my real family, Thalia Luke and I, just everything. That’s why I wanted to be an architect. Why should he be any different?
Then you took me by surprise
You said, "I’ll never leave you alone."
And I knew he wasn’t like anyone else.
You said, "I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it’s like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter
She is the best thing that’s ever been mine."
Oh, why can’t he remember? Why can’t he remember me? Why can’t my life be like a song? I suppose today it probably did feel like the first time he saw me.
Hold on, make it last
Hold on, never turn back
Make it last, a monument to last a thousand years.
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.
(Hold on) Do you believe it?
(Hold on) Gonna make it now.
(Hold on) I can see it,
(Yes, yes) I can see it now.
A single tear slid down my cheek, one that I wiped away as the Minerva head knocked on the door.
