It wasn’t a good time to remember, but you couldn’t stop your train of thought from going down the memory lane, no matter how hard you tried.
You remembered how you’d always thought Jaehyun was trouble, and knowing you were trouble as well, you were able to help him. It had been a few years back, when you were around eleven years old that you’d found out there was someone else like you closer than you’d thought. Jaehyun and you went to the same school, and after seeing him get in trouble for the same reasons you used to back in your other academy, you were the first one to know he was just like you: a demigod. You were the one who took him to Camp Half-Blood, assuring he’d love it, and he did.
You remembered the way he was claimed, because you wouldn’t let him live with it, since Mr. D had technically just exhaled when looking at him and said ‘yep, that’s my kid’ before walking back to the Big House with a Coke on his hand. Jaehyun had simply been confused for a while, then very angry and eventually had softened about it because of your teasing.
There was also the time he’d gotten his first bead, and he’d been extremely excited about it, because it was a reminder that he belonged somewhere, and that he had friends by his side, he had you as his friend.
As you looked at him, the first time he kissed you came back to you as well. After a day of climbing the lava wall, all that you wanted was to lie down on the firework beach until it was dinner time, but Jaehyun had a lot of energy on him still.
“Can you like, chill for a second?” you huffed, walking behind him as he sprinted towards the beach and then back to pull you with him, laughter filling the air as he dragged you with him and you told him to stop unless he wanted to fight you.
“Well, fight me then” he teased with a smile, pushing your shoulder playfully. You returned the shove, and soon you were chasing each other again, until Jaehyun threw you over his shoulder, claiming he’d won and continued his way to the beach still carrying you.
“Put me down!” you yelled as you thrashed against him “Jaehyun!”
“Fine!” of course, something had to happen, his feet entangled and as he tripped he shifted your bodies so you fell on top of him.
“Good job” you grumbled, pressing your palms against his chest to lift your weight up. But he didn’t move, instead he held you against him, and lifted his face to reach for yours, deep down he was waiting for you to protest again, afraid he’d make you uncomfortable and scared that you’d reject him, but he would accept it. But you didn’t even freeze as his lips grazed yours and his hand moved to the back of your neck.
“Not complaining now, are you?” Jaehyun chuckled, still holding your face.
You hit his arm before laughing as you eventually got up from the ground and intertwined your hands, hoping you’d finally be able to get to the beach.
In that moment, you also remembered the moment he’d gotten his quest, and how you knew it was wrong to beg him not to go, because he had to, but you still had the feeling something would turn out wrong, and it did. Jaehyun had finished the quest but had been attacked by monsters, leaving him in the current state he was in, after other campers, including you had gone to his rescue.
“He’s gonna be fine” an Apollo kid assured for the hundredth time, though it was no use how many times he said it, you still refused to leave Jaehyun’s side, or to stop crying silently every time you looked at his closed eyes. Chiron had said they couldn’t give him anymore Nectar, because it could kill him, so there was nothing left to do but wait.
So you waited, holding his hand day and night, until the day came when you’d tease him again and he’d shut you up with a kiss. You waited until he was back to where he belonged, right next to you, with a smile on his face.
