||Summary|| The battlefield was supposed to be just another mission. You and Percy Jackson had fought monsters, faced impossible odds, and survived things most demigods never could. But this time, the fight was different. When a dangerous battle takes a turn for the worse, you end up seriously injured, leaving Percy with one thought: getting you out alive. For once, Percy isn’t the hero everyone expects him to be. He’s scared, angry, and desperate to protect someone who means more to him than he wants to admit. As the dust settles and the others try to recover, Percy refuses to leave your side. Old feelings surface, promises are made, and both of you realize that some battles aren’t about defeating monsters—they’re about fighting for the people you care about. Argument: “Percy, stop. You can’t blame yourself for this.” His jaw tightened as he looked away, his hands clenched at his sides. “I’m supposed to protect my friends, Y/N.” His voice was quieter now. “I’m supposed to make sure everyone comes home.” You tried to smile despite everything. “I did come home.” Percy looked back at you, his expression breaking for just a second. “Yeah… but you almost didn’t.” And that was the moment you realized the battle had changed something between you.
