Chapter 1: Percy P.O.V
Today was Annabeth's birthday, July 12. She was turning 25 this year, and I had something very important to ask her. Today I was going to ask her to marry me. I had the ring box in my pocket, next to Riptide, so I wouldn't forget it. As I got into my car my phone rang(yes I know what you are thinking "Aren't cell phones bad demigods?" Well ever since we closed the doors of death and stopped Gea, monsters are now very, VERY, rare so know us demigods can do what mortals can do) and it was Annabeth.
" Seaweed Brain! Are you almost here? I don't want this night to get thrown off because of you being, well a Seaweed Brain!"
"Yes, I am just leaving now. See you in a few minutes. Love you."
"OK, love you to."
When I got to her apartment, she was wearing a long sea green dress, she had her hair in a low bun and she was wearing the bracelet I got her when she turned 16.
"Wow Annabeth! You look amazing. And you still have that bracelet?"
"No...Percy. I threw it away right after you gave it to do you think?" She said sarcastically.
"I just...well never mind. Let's just go to dinner."
As we ate our dinner, we talked all about our adventures together when we were kids. Then after awhile I excused myself because I was going to go ask when they bring her
cake I want them to but the ring on the plate, but I didn't tell her that.
As they waiters brought the slice of cake, I started ing butterflies in my stomach, I know I already asked for her parents giving me their blessing,and believe me that really made me nervous, but this? Many things can go wrong,like if she says no. But there was no backing down now. As she saw the ring I got on one knee.
"Annabeth Chase, will you marry me?" I saw tears in her eyes, she nodded and said yes. Thank the gods! I don't know what I would of done if she said no. I put the ring on her finger and then I kissed her. I heard clapping nall around us. After I paid for the dinner, we went to my car.
All this time Annabeth hasn't said a word, well except yes.
"Is anything wrong?"
" Percy..." She started,"You don't even know how long I have been wanting this." She squeezed my hand.
"You want me to help you pack your stuff?" I asked my fiancé.
"No, I will do it by myself, I will move in tomorrow." We pulled up to her apartment, and she left. I thought to myself and thought wow I have the best girl on the world, and soon she is going to be my wife.
That night I put everything in its place, because I wanted my home to be presentable to Annabeth. And trust me if she see's one thing out of place, she will go ballistic. I think I fell asleep around 2 in the morning, yes that was how messy my house was. Not my fault that I juggled 3 jobs to buy Annabeth's ring. I slept for about 2 hours and then went to my job. I had the best job in the world for as son of Posideon. You know those people who are in the aquarium and they go in the water and get to feed the animals and talk to fish, that is what I do.
