𝔇ear Luke,

Please tell Ethan that he's a complete douche and I'll smack him next time I see him.

Dear Luke,

Keep saying dumb things like that and I'll break up with you. I swear to god, one more 'you might burn the house down' joke and I'm revoking your key privileges and never cooking you pasta ever again.

Arabella.

Dear Luke,

Please tell Ethan he can shove that opinion and fake apology up his ass. I've slammed the door on his face once and I will be glad to do it again. Does it look like I'm joking? 

Don't answer that, it's rhetorical.

More funny jokes about crispy food will also end in death for you. I'm pretty sure that my heart can keep beating without you around to try and get me flustered.

Dear Luke,

ONE MORE SHORT COMMENT AND I WILL END YOU. TRY ME

Luke Alexander Castellan,

After much consideration, I have decided that murdering you and Ethan is at the top of my priority list. Be warned, I will find you, and I will kill you.

Sending you smothering love, emphasis on the smothering part,

Arabella

p.s if I see either of your faces, you're gonna want to start running. I'm nice, I'll give you a two second head start

My beloved boyfriend,

It was very funny that you thought I was joking. I was not. If I hear Ethan on the phone calls making another 'she's on her period' joke, both of you will spend your last moments in painful agony. I have a whole variety of torture lined up, including (but not limited to) listening to Never Gonna Give You Up on repeat for multiple hours. 

Choose your next words, in both the phone calls and the letters, very carefully.

Ellie

Dear My Beloved,

You are absolutely forgiven after sending me that video of Ethan tripping over nothing for five minutes straight to the theme of never gonna give you up. You're brilliant, I love it, I will probably give you your key back when you next come to visit (but food would also be appreciated) and I won't try and kill you. 

I'm nice like that.

Tell Ethan that I will never let him live it down, I will be playing it at his wedding and every spare moment I get. I've already made multiple copies, like instructed.

Moving onto slightly more important stuff, you never told me what you were up to, but it sounds hard and your boss sounds like a dick. I don't know why you can't move jobs or something, cause you don't seem happy in the slightest. Every time we talk, you sound more and more tired. Please come home and rest. I miss you, and I hate seeing you like this.

In other news, in a couple of weeks time, I'm going to Greece! How exciting is that? Iris and her wife, Ava, are going to Athens, and they're bringing me along. I'm so ready to go and I'm going to take lots of pictures. I remember you said that your little sister Annabeth really like architecture, so I'll get some pictures of all the famous buildings just for her. How does that sound? 

Unfortunately, that means I won't be home for two weeks, but you've got a key to my place. My home is your home. Don't let Ethan in though, otherwise I've got to disinfect it because of that snake. 

Before you say, it was just a movie, his disrespect of Ratatouille will not stand in my household, and until he admits that a movie about food is superior to a movie about cars, he is not allowed back.

I'm getting sidetracked, and I'm sure that you'll have heard all of this in our phone calls already, but I like sending you letters. I don't know, it's just our little thing, and I really can't wait to look back at them with you later on! Anyhow, I've got an essay I'm supposed to be finishing, so I will sign off here.

Miss you with all me heart, please come and visit before I go to Greece, 

Ellie xxx

Annabeth rubbed her hand along her face, trying to fight the tears down. These letters were all just proving to be a harsh reminder of the task that faced them at the end of it. Somehow, they had to tell this girl that the two closest people in her life were dead.

"She just sounds so sweet," Annabeth murmured, as Percy picked the next letter up, and pulled a face.

"There's photos in this one," He replied, before pulling them out, his eyebrows furrowing. "Annabeth...this one's addressed to you."

Annabeth's jaw dropped, before she picked the envelope for Percy's hand, one that seemed to have sat untouched, her fingers tracing the cursive writing on the top.

Annabeth

Hiya,

So, there were a couple of things in this chapter; Ethan and Ellie got into a fight about Ratatouille and Cars, which was why she was so upset for the first few letters, Luke has a key to her house, Iris has a wife called Ava, Ellie is going to Greece and is an absolute sweetheart and Luke, Ellie and Ethan are a chaotic trio that I adore with all my heart. 

Anyhow, let me know what you think,

Love Li xx
