The Fairiomachy: Chapter 3

Victoria's P.O.V

I held Isa McLean by the hands and flew her to Camp Half-blood. She's pale and had suffered Hypothermia. I can't let Josh knew about this or else he would be crying like a baby again. I could tell Luna is not pleased with Josh crying like a baby.

Unfortunately, Josh was still there, and as I were about to land, Josh looked at my direction, and gasped.

Josh started to cry again, Alex held Josh and he seemed that he can't calm down. He must have thought that his mom is dead.

"Josh," Alex let him go and Josh sat down as he sobbed very hard. I sat down with him and tell him in a very soothing voice. "Your mom is still alive."

Josh looked at me. He is filled with a surge of hope. He lunged at me and he tackled me with a hug so fierce that I'm afraid that I would be crushed.

Josh let me go, and started to walk towards his mother. Josh blinked the tears from both his eyes and let it drop on his mother's chest.

His mother began to wake up, her body didn't feel so cold anymore.

Josh closed his eyes, and began to sob on her shirt. "Mother, please don't leave me!!"

Every camper stood watching Josh. I had to admit he's gonna be embarrassed later.

I don't want to make Josh more miserable. He's already so miserable now that he won't stop crying until his mother wakes.

"Josh?" Josh's mom murmured. Josh felt a surge of relief and hugged his mother.

"MOM!!!!" Josh cried on her shirt. "Oh, God! I thought I lost you forever!!"

"It's... it's okay." Isa said, though she still shivered a bit.
