Undecided /Sadie Kane X Percy/

Sadie POV: I choose truth

As I spoke about my adventures, I felt tons of weigh roll down my heart. I told him everything up till now. And he did the same. Neither of us was surprised. We both knew from the beginning that we weren't regular mortals. When he started telling me about his personal life, I felt unprepared. It must've taken a lot of courage to tell me all of himself. When he reached the end, I blushed. So he does like me a bit. I could feel my dam breaking down, and I let it.

Don't forget to trust Isis said. So I did. I felt tears leaking from my eyes, and continue their journey through my face. I also felt Percy holding on tighter to my hand, which gave me a point to hang on to. I took a deep breath, then started to speak:

"Carter and I were raised separately, after our mom died in releasing Bast. I lived in London with mom's parents, while he travelled the world with dad. The night that dad blew up the Rosetta stone was when we were taken by Uncle Amos to the mansion in Brooklyn. That is when we started bonding. During the Red Pyramid, I met Anubis, whom I have liked from the first time we met. I never really knew if he liked me back until the night he came to visit. After the Red Pyramid, the first two initiates came to Brooklyn to study the path of the gods. One of them is Jaz, who is my best friend, and the other one was Walt, who I also started to like. Soon enough, I learned that Walt was going to die from a curse, and that we will never have a future together, and that Anubis is off-limits because of him being a god. Anubis gave me my first kiss. I knew Walt liked me back because when we let our guard down, he would give me one short passionate kiss before pulling away. So now I was torn between two guys I both loved: Anubis who is the god of death and funerals, and Walt, who was going to die. When the time came Walt had to die, it came clear: the guys I liked were talking and making plans of them joining in one, making it possible for both of them to date me. At first, I felt cheated and angry, but with time I got used to it. The day you found me was the day when I saw Walt cheating on me with another initiate called Alyssa? I escaped, then came the dog, you and Anubis's visit." I sighed. It felt good letting it all out to someone. I could saw unhidden shock on his face. I continued:

"Anubis said the reason he visited me was that he had to see me, and check if I am okay. That is when it came clear that he likes me back, but the rules our gods made is still there. And then there is you." I blushed so deeply I felt like a tomato. I saw surprise in Percy's eye.

"I only pull away from you because of what I've just said, and now, I am not sure what to do, because I actually like you" The last sentence slipped through my lips by accident. I saw Percy's face light up, and heard him whisper:

"I like you too, no need to blush, though it looks cute" I giggled, which was not at all like me. Percy sat closer to me, then suddenly lifted me into his lap. I felt my heart soaring, as I laid my head on his chest. I could hear his heart beating like crazy. We sat like that for a long time. I realized my tears stopped pouring from my eyes, and I felt oddly light as I sat there. He started stroking my hair, and I snuggled closer to him. He stopped playing with my hair, and placed his arms around me. He whispered:

"I don't mind if you like Anubis, I don't mind if your heart is split into two, as long as one half is mine, and you don't pull away."

That was the thing I was thinking about, and hearing him say it like that destroyed the heaviest chain on my heart. I sat up straight, and looked into his marvelous eyes. "Thank you" I said, but before I could go back, I felt his hand on my cheek.

"Can I?" He asked. I nodded while my heart did a somersault. He pulled my head towards his, and crashed his lips on mine. At first, both of us were only kissing slowly, but soon, it turned into a passionate make out session. With his arms around my waist, and my hands in his hair and around his neck, I felt as happy as never before. As we kissed, again and again, we closed the distance between us. Soon, our chests met, and the beats of our hearts formed one, strong vibration between us, that we both felt and liked. I felt his tongue and his lips in and on my mouth, as I was finally free. We stopped to breathe, and as we separated, I could still taste the salty, ocean-like flavour of his mouth on mine.

It felt so natural to kiss him, and doing it gave a new feeling I never felt before in any of my kisses.

I could see happiness in his eyes, as he kissed my lips for the last time, then I placed my head back to where his heart was.
