Me: As much as I love Percabeth, this idea was too good to pass up. See ya at the bottom.

Percy: I hate you.

Me: No you don't. Blue chocolate-chip cookies?

Percy: I love you.

Me: See?

Disclaimer:

Me: *sigh* Can't I SAY I own it? Please?

Percy: No! You can't. Now let me go.

Me: Pfft, like that's gonna happen. Anyway I'm NOT a guy or a famous author, so I don't own it. Or Percy. Yet.

Percy: *gulp* ANNABETH SAVE ME!


Percy POV:

The gleaming sun was setting over the sparkling water. I was in a great mood. Today was the day I would ask Annabeth to marry me. As it was the anniversary of our first underwater kiss that ended with her as my girlfriend, it was the perfect day.

I heard something move behind me and turned. She walked out of the woods, and smiled at me. Gods she's beautiful. I thought as the sun's rays streaked across her hair turning it to living gold and lighting a flame in her gray eyes. She stopped in front of me and looked down. Something was wrong.

"You okay?" I asked, putting my hand under her chin and tilting it up.

Her eyes filled suddenly with tears.

"No, I'm not." she whispered.

I grabbed her hand and tried to pull her into a hug but she slid her hand out of mine and backed up. She flinched as she looked into my eyes and saw the confusion that was surging through me.

"Percy…I…I can't do this anymore. I love you, but I need some time to heal, and—"

What?

"And you can't here? Spit it out Annabeth. What are you trying to say?" I asked nervously.

"I-I'm breaking up with you."

Dead silence. What? I couldn't say a thing. My brain could not...What did I do?

"I-I'm really sorry." With that she turned and ran.

Away from camp.

Away from the beach.

Away from me.


Annabeth's POV:

I knew it was the right thing to do. I couldn't deal with this anymore. And I couldn't keep hurting not only Percy but all my friends. They din't understand. Tartarus broke something inside of me that I could never heal. No one could.

It was the logical thing to do.

The right thing.

I know it. There's no doubt in my mind.

So why is the path in front of me blurring behind a curtain of tears?

Why am I shaking so hard I can barely run?

Why does my heart feel like it's breaking?


Me: What do you think? Should I continue on? or leave it as a one-shot?

Percy: The button down there loves you. Review for the sake of the button!

Me: Yeah I might even let Percy leave if you review.

Percy: REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW

Me: *evil laugh*

Percy: Save me from her!
