Valentinos pov

Athena asked if I would like to stay for dinner and of course I said yes. The more time to see Anna the better. I sit next to her as she picks at her food looking over at Adia.

"Anna eat or i'll feed you again" I whisper in her ear as she looks at me with sad eyes. "Just half not even the whole thing" I hold her empty hand under the table as she starts to eat a bit more.

She finished half of her plate putting the fork down. I wish she could just step into my body even for a second and see how much love I have for here.

Dinner goes by quickly and I excuse myself to go home. The drive home is only thirty minutes which isn't bad at all, feeling the wind blowing with music playing, the stars shining bright creating a calming setting.

I pull up and park my car in the garage that's full or various different cars. Going inside dad is with yet another girlfriend.

"Valentino come here" He says, making me stop in my tracks going to the living room. His girl leaves giving us privacy as he sits up looking at me. "I need to tell you something, what I tell you is not just to waste breath but because I know how it feels" he looks at me dead in the eyes telling me he's serious about what he's going to say.

"Don't let Annabeth go. The way you look at each other is with pure emotion and love even if you both keep dying it. I was in love with her mom. Marco kept her but I saw her everyday and did everything with her making me fall in love. It was the happiest I've ever felt but when Lucky found her I knew I had to let her go because she would never love me as much as she loved him. You love Annabeth as much as Athena loves Lucky. She's special to you, don't let what keeps you going go because it'll be a bitch get it back.

The love I had for your mother is what you have for her. Yeah don't get me wrong I loved Athena but I loved Athena because your mom and I knew we always had something to break us up. When we finally stood together those were the best 12 years of my life. I wish I could do it over and over again. Don't make the same mistake we made. Be with the person you love no matter what."

"Thank you dad" I smile at him "Anytime Val" I go up to my room already plotting my next moves. I see the picture of my mom on my desk. A small pang goes to my heart. Sitting in front of the piano in my room I start to play the first song my mother ever taught me.

"I'm going to do it for you ma"

Annabeth's pov

"Anna, are you sure?" Mom asks me for the 400th time today. She keeps trying to make sure I'm okay with her and dad leaving for a weekend. It's only a weekend plus it's her birthday so why not. She deserves a break as well. "Ma it's fine I promise, go have a good weekend with dad just don't come back pregnant" She laughs

"Anna that boat ending right after you were born" I roll my eyes and she hugs me tightly, taking a deep breath. Dad comes downstairs with their two bags, putting them in the car. "If you need anything call us" Dad hugs me I nod telling him to have a good time.

I go upstairs watching their car leave.

I lay down starting a new book. Reading is like an escape from its words on a paper that brings you happiness or sadness. It lets you think how you want and imagine what you want.

It's better than living in a world where nothing good happens.

For some reason bad things happen to good people. They are the ones with the most trauma are the ones with the biggest hearts. Maybe it's a test to see how much we can handle or how long we can last.

I connect my phone to my speaker, not bothering to mess with my vinyls. I start to play The Luimneers opening the balcony door sitting on one of the chairs looking at the stars. Each star is an angel with a story to tell. I wonder how much pain they had to go through to finally be happy?

"Anna what's wrong?" Gio says coming outside with Federico. I don't say anything, I just let the music play humming along to it. "Now you just look like you're going to cry" Rico makes me sit up looking at them. They both hug me tightly letting me cry on their shoulder.

I still don't know why I'm alive

Why should I be alive when all I feel is pain?

Why should I be alive when the one person I want to understand never does. He feeds me fake words and lies. It's the same thing that happened when we were 14.

Stupid little niave Annabeth getting her heart broken by the one person she thought would never hurt her
