Of course I'm not alright.""Be..."She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "What are you going to tell the press?""That my incredibly hot and sexy ex-wife showed up at my house last night so distraught that she couldn't see straight and I ripped off all her clothes and took advantage of her by f***ing her brains out on the worst night of her life.""Did Leon write that? Because I have to tell you it might need a little work.""Be, let me help you with the arrangements."Annabeth wiped a tear from her cheek, "I'm sorry.""For what?""I didn't know the press would be out there.""I know you didn't. None of that matters. They already voted me in, they're stuck with me and I can handle this and Leon. I'm worried about you. I want to be here for you.
