“Do you think we’d still love each other in other universes?”
What a weird question. And such a funny one too.
“Huh? Of course we would, it’d be particularly idiotic for another me not to get with most amazing girl to ever exist.”
It’s so funny really. No matter how much we believe, how much we hope. All of it always leads to the inevitable.
No matter the universe.
Because really how did I not expect this? I’m such an idiot. And now because of that my hope girlfriend's gone. And she left while in the horrid lie that was the safety of my arms. Now I’m alone. And her beautiful black as night hair yet warm as the sun demeanor had disappeared with her. I really hope my ‘other’ selves don’t take her love for granted. It’s bad enough that even though I tried to keep her safe and breathing she had still died in my arms in horrible pain due to my selfish choices.
“Oh you sap! I’d never forgive my other selves if they gave you up too! I love you Will Solace, my ever bright sun that just can’t seem to dim no matter how much I attempt to piss you off.”
“Woah. You? Willingly proclaiming your feelings to me? I must be in elysium!”
“Oh shut it! Ohhhh ho...look over there! That must be Pen and her FIANCEE getting back from COLLEGEEEE!!”
“Penny and Annie are engaged?”
“You know, I’m never gonna get over practically all the older campers calling him Annie.”
“I am not old.”
“Ehhh….”
“Okay yeah sure Ms. ‘I was born in the 30’s!’ since clearly YOU’RE so young.”
“NICO!!! WHY'D YOU YELL THAT一DREW COME GET YOUR BROTHER OFF OF ME, MICHELLE GET OFF! WAIT WAIT NO IM SORRY NEVERMIND NEVERMIND IM SORRY DREW!!! ENA CONTROL YOUR BROTHER.”
“...pft..”
“You know at one point you’d start getting concerned on if the younger campers have good role models till you remember their role models are practically just normal college students. Gods! Can you believe we’re gonna be in college soon一oh my bad, I meant me.”
“Oh shut your mouth Will一is that my brother and Sir legally ELDEST Grace, oh nevermind Jay's here too.”
“That just means the Romans are here so that means you can see your mythomagic buddy and I get to see my best friend一your brother.”
“And YOUR brother-in-law.”
Maybe…just maybe.
“NICOLETTA!!! There you are!”
This single time..
“Ah! Willow you’re here too! I hope you’ve been doing well since last time! Those dreams一and my sister一 haven’t been bothering you much right?”
The fates can spare this one universe.
“Hah, why I’ve never felt better Mr di Angelo. How’s life with the hunters going?”
Just this once.
“Will? Are you sure you’re okay?”
Oh.
