This is a one shot about Annabeth. Her feelings while Percy was missing and on their quest. Enjoy.
disclaimer: use your brains people, obviously I'm not Rick Riordan.
She couldn't believe it. That was the first step, denial. She searches the camp but couldn't find him. Even then she refuses to believe it.
For two days she went out of her mind. She was at the second stage, acceptance. Acceptance that he was missing.
Then the dream came. The canyon the lightning, the three demigods, and the voice. Go to the Grand Canyon, find the one with one shoe.
So she went. But it wasn't him, wasn't her love. But she took them back to camp, because that's what he would do.
Where is he, what did you do to him? She cried, but there was no response, only an echo. So she kept looking for him. For months while they built the ship.
And they were going to him. But she can't stop from wondering. What happened? Did he forget? Did he remember? Did he find someone else? Did he want to come home?
He was her life saving medication, now she was cut off, forced to withdraw. Then she saw him. And she wasn't sure which was worse, having him, or being without him.
And he seemed happy. Like this was his home, he had friends and a girl that looked at him with love. But he didn't see HER.
She searched through the crowd and your eyes meet. Green on grey. And all the love is there, with all the joy of seeing her. And they surge forward. And they feel the charge. And they are simply together.
But it didn't last. She had a quest to do. To do alone. But he found her. He saved her. And when she fell, he fell with her. And nothing mattered.
They were simply together.
Tired, battered, and barely able to go 2 feet without being attacked. They survived Tarturus together. Their love helped them make it through. In the they were together.
Quite simply together.
let me know what you think. I also have another one shot called Eyes, it's in Reyna's POV. Check it out.
