A/N: So this is my first fanfiction… Hope you like it and please drop reviews telling me about it… Constructive criticism is appreciated… Anyways read away:

ANNABETH POV

She woke up to a headache. Groggy from the restless sleep, she trudged along to Percy's room. Since coming to new Rome some three years ago both of them had shared the apartment. Her room reminded Percy of a library, as for Percy's room, it reminded her of the Pegasus stables back at camp. She knocked on the door "HAPPY BIRTHDAY PERCY! And happy 5 year anniversary to us…"

5 years, they were long no doubt, but the 8 months Percy had disappeared (thanks a lot Hera!) were the longest. Since Percy was not opening, she kicked the door open and walked in. There were coke cans on the floor and smelly t-shirts on the bed. The room was strewn with his college books and clothes. He was in dire need of a housekeeper or maybe even a nanny.

But Percy wasn't there inside. She figured he must be making breakfast and dragged herself to the kitchen. There was no Percy and no food. A little mad at him for being so indifferent to their 5 year anniversary and also his birthday, she called him. Thankfully he picked up, "Uhh… Hi Annabeth… 'Sup?" That got me angry; he disappears and then doesn't even remember that it's been 5 years, "PERSEUS JACKSON WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU? And yes I am mad that you didn't even remember."

He replied "We need to talk. Meet me at the shrine to Poseidon in an hour. Bye." He hung up. But he didn't have to; his words effectively shut me up. Thousand things were running through my head. Why did Percy act so distant? What is going on? Why couldn't he just tell me here? I decided the answers to my questions lay with Percy, therefore I showered, tied my hair into a loose bun, picked my architecture books and stormed out.

I saw him at the desolate shrine sitting by himself, his face had that grim yet determined expression, his hair swept sideways, he didn't come running and greet me, but instead saw me and continued his staring competition with the tree behind me. When I reached I coughed, he got up. I have spent years reading people, I could tell that Percy was nervous he was hiding something; I figured that something big and emotional was coming up. Instead he said just three words that made my heart nearly stop, "We're done. Goodbye." Something was not right, but I was so shell shocked that I fell to the ground. I wanted to cry, to scream, but it was as if the tears refused to come out and so did my voice.

My breathing was heavy; I was terrified, I was angry. I walked that terrible walk, I couldn't register anything. I walked to college, to class, the world which now smiled at me felt so alien. I couldn't understand why Percy would do this to me. I couldn't pay attention to the lecture, so I went to Reyna during lunch, to Camp Jupiter. When she saw me she knew something was terribly wrong, we shared that skill. She took me to my favourite fountain and slowly coaxed the story out of me. She listened with a straight face and then whistled for Aurum and Argentum. They came sprinting she whispered her orders to them. They bounded away into the distance.

They came back dragging Percy and along with him half of the Roman demigods at Camp Jupiter.
Percy glanced at me and then steadied his gaze at Reyna, who was ordering every demigod other than Percy to get lost unless they wanted to clean the Pegasus stables. Percy walked surprisingly fast towards me and Reyna. Reyna said to words, "Spill fast." He replied with a story that broke my heart more than the breakup. Everything was a blur; it was too fast to be true. That moment I forgave my seaweed brain for breaking up with me, for being so distant and so secretive because I realized he did it because he loved me and wanted me to be happier.

My Percy had Brain cancer, the kind that not even ambrosia and nectar can cure. There is only one way, a cure for death, which is banned by Zeus very strictly especially after the Gaea war, when Leo used it. I was choking up because of tears but I managed to say, "You can't get rid of me that easy Seaweed Brain. I'll find a way. I will not lose you to a stupid bunch of cells in your brain after everything we've been through. I love you and just remember that I will stick with you till the end no matter what happens."

His eyes shone with tears, "You know Annabeth I was wrong to think that if I left you I would cause myself less pain. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I'll find a way for you Annabeth, a way to stick around for a very long time. I was so stupid and so wrapped up in myself that I didn't even think about the impact of my actions on you." I pulled him into a warm and tearful embrace, "Shhh Percy… We'll leave for Camp Half Blood tomorrow morning, alright?"

I realized that Reyna had left when I turned around to thank her and to inform her that Percy and I will be going tomorrow and will only return when we have a cure.

A/N: Tell me if I should continue it or not. If you people like it I'llupdate soon… Byee!
