Thalia fell still, a habit that she had developed during her time as a tree. She could feel her heartbeating in her chest, knew the thoughts swirling in her head like a thunderstorm, but didn't let anything move her. It was hard to be so unyielding, with each give she gave up feeling like it was going to snap her in two. But she was stronger than that, they both were. She wouldn't cry for Luke and she knew he wouldn't cry for her.
They should've been a lot of things that they weren't. They should've had a chance to grow up.
"It's okay. I've dealt with worst, but you already know that," she said with a shrug, a smirk tugging at her lips. "You won't tell anyone, will you? Things are complicated I know, but..." she stopped staring at him, hoping that she wouldn't have to say the please that had stopped on the edge of her tongue. Hoping that the trust she wanted to give him, even in such a little way wasn't wasted. "The only person who makes things harder for me, is me. So like I said, it is okay."
