PPOV

It started out as a very happy day. It was Suppose to be one of the happiest nights of my junior year in high school. Prom Night.

I was taking my girlfriend Annabeth, Of course. My best friend Grover couldn't take his girlfriend, Juniper because she was a tree nymph and couldnt go very far from her tree. My friend Nico was only able to go because he was taking a junior named Bella. she was this weird punk chick who liked to do voodoo magic on all of the teachers to make us have less homework. Yep, I think she's a perfect girl for Nico. And my friend Rachel was taking her new boyfriend, Randy.

To tell you the truth I didnt like Randy that much. He was a player, and I knew he would end up hurting Rachel in some way. He was a buff guy who was captain of the basket ball team. he had blonde hair and had just gotten a buzz cut which made his ears stand out so he kinda looked like an elf. He was always so sure of himself. like I said, I didnt like the guy.

Grover and i went tux shopping (technically tux renting) today after school. I could tell grover was a little bummed that Juniper couldnt come. but i tried to tell him to atleast act happy during the prom.

"Im gonna be the only one there who doesn't have a date!" he said after we bought our tuxes and left the store.

"is that really what you're concerned about?" I asked. "I thought you were upset that Juniper couldn't come."

"I am, Percy. But i'm gonna look so pathetic."

"Grover, i'm sure you're not going to be the only one without a date. I mean, alot of people werent asked."

"The people who weren't asked arent going Percy!" he said.

I didn't want to admit it, but he was right. the people who didn't get asked or just didn't want to go weren't going. hey, I was trying to do a nice thing for him. it's not my fault he feels too guilty to ask anybody else.

"I'll tell you what, if you want to you can dance with annabeth if she agree's." I told him

"Really Perce? you'd let me dance with your girlfriend?" he asked

I nodded. I knew that Grover wouldnt try anything because he and annabeth have known each other for a longer time than I have. They're more like brother and sister than anyone i've ever known.

Suddenly, I realized we were still standing outside the tux store. I knew Annabeth would still be dress shopping with Thalia and Rachel, so we decided to get some lunch without them. we got into my truck and drove to the nearest McDonalds. we ate quickly just in case Annabeth didnt finish earlier than i thought she would and start to wonder where i was (i was her drive home).

We walked out and i saw Annabeth waiting outside of the mall. she was holding a pretty big bag which probably had her dress inside. i said bye to grover because he had his own car, and walked over to Annabeth.

"Hey, Beautiful." i said with a huge grin on my face. she blushed when she saw me, which I thought was cute.

"Hi Seaweed Brain!" and she gave me a quick kiss followed by a hug.

"Where's Thalia and Rachel?"

"Oh they already left."

I smiled. she had to be home by four and it was already 3:45. we got into my truck and i drove her home.

she kissed me goodbye before she left the car and walked over to her porch taking her bag with her. her dad answered the door. he gave me a smile and I waved. he waved back. I always liked Mr. Chase because he was always so nice no matter who he was talking to. even if it was his daughters boyfriend who have been going out for almost a year.

After I saw Annabeth go inside i got a call from my cell phone. i saw it was Rachel and answered.

"Hey Rachel, What's up?" i asked

oh nothing. i was just wondering if you could pick me up for the prom tomorrow? she said

"I thought Randy was taking you."

he just said he'll meet me there so...

"Well, maybe you should ask him to take you."

I dont know. i mean what if he breaks up with me or something?

"why would he break up with you?"

she hesitated. I guess she was just embarresed because Randy was the only boyfriend she's ever had. and she didnt want to ruin it because she thought he would break up with her by the tiniest little thing.

ok, fine i'll ask him. she said.

and with that, we said our goodbyes and I drove home. i know i sound like a complete girl right now but I COULD NOT wait for the prom. I knew Annabeth was going to look beautiful and i just didnt want to wait to see her. i was really excited.

Little did I know that that night would turn out to be one of the worst nights of my life. i would lose almost everything because of it. and the whole thing was my fault.
