Dreams and Daggers

(Heyyyy everyone,this is my first post, so I hope you enjoy it and feel free to request things. Love you bye xx)

The stars glittered above Camp Half-Blood like shards of celestial bronze, and the sound of the waves lapping against the shore filled the quiet night. Most campers had gone to bed, but you, the daughter of Hypnos, found yourself wide awake for once.

You were perched on the edge of the canoe lake, your feet skimming the water. Sleep had been elusive, which was unusual for you. Your dreams, often vivid and heavy with meaning, had been confusing lately—fragments of laughter, golden sunlight, and a pair of stormy blue eyes that seemed to linger long after you woke up.

Speak of the devil.

"Couldn’t sleep?” came Luke Castellan’s familiar voice behind you.

You turned to find him standing there, hands in his pockets, a lopsided grin on his face. His blonde hair caught the moonlight, making him look like something out of a dream himself.

"Ironic, isn’t it?” you replied, a small smile tugging at your lips. “A daughter of Hypnos, wide awake.”

Luke chuckled as he sat down beside you, his presence warm and easy. "Maybe I’m rubbing off on you. I never sleep well.”

"Too much guilt keeping you up?” you teased lightly, though your voice held a note of genuine curiosity.

His grin faltered for a split second before he leaned back on his hands, looking up at the sky. "Something like that.”

You frowned, nudging his shoulder with yours. "Hey, I didn’t mean it like that. I just… You carry a lot on your shoulders, Luke. It’s okay to let someone else carry it for a while.”

He turned to you, his blue eyes searching yours in a way that made your heart stutter. "Yeah? And who’s going to carry your burdens, huh? You help everyone else with their nightmares, but who helps you?”

You blinked, caught off guard by his question. No one had ever asked you that before.

"I don’t know,” you admitted quietly. “I guess… I just deal with it.”

Luke’s expression softened. “That’s not fair, you know. You deserve someone who listens, who cares. Someone who… makes you feel like you’re not alone.”

Your cheeks flushed, and you quickly looked away, focusing on the ripples in the water. "What about you? Who makes you feel like you’re not alone?”

There was a pause, and then, so softly you almost didn’t hear it, Luke said, "You.”

Your breath hitched, and you turned to face him, your heart pounding. “Me?”

He gave a sheepish laugh, rubbing the back of his neck. “Yeah. I mean, don’t get me wrong, you can be a little scary sometimes with all the dream talk and your scary-good intuition, but… you’re also kind. You see people. Really see them. And I guess… I’ve never felt so understood.”

You stared at him, unsure of what to say. Was he really saying what you thought he was saying?

Luke cleared his throat, his usual confidence faltering. “I know I’m not exactly a great catch. I’ve made… a lot of mistakes. But I want to be better. For you.”

Your heart melted at his words, and before you could second-guess yourself, you reached out and took his hand.

"You’re not perfect, Luke,” you said softly. “But neither am I. And I don’t care about the mistakes you’ve made. I care about who you are now.”

His eyes widened, a flicker of hope shining in them. “Yeah?”

"Yeah,” you said, smiling.

Luke’s grin returned, brighter than ever, and he laced his fingers through yours. “So… does this mean I can officially call you my girlfriend? Or do I have to fight Hypnos for permission?”

You laughed, the sound light and free. "You’d lose that fight, Castellan.”

"Maybe,” he said with a smirk. “But I’d fight anyway. You’re worth it.”

Your cheeks turned pink, and you playfully shoved him. "You’re such a cheeseball.”

"Yeah, but you like it,” he teased, leaning closer.

And he wasn’t wrong.

As the two of you sat there, hands intertwined, the stars seemed to shine a little brighter. For the first time in a long time, you felt truly at peace. And if your dreams were filled with golden sunlight and stormy blue eyes that night, well, you weren’t complaining.

(Thank you for reading beautiful people,I hope you have a great day wherever you are xx)
