Annabeth
I was standing on the beach waiting. Percy hadn't come down yet. Percy, after we had returned from Greece, he had gone to Olympus. Well, it probably doesn't help that he was now a god. He had been somehow turned into a god while saving the world. We really don't know how that happened, but after he killed Gaea, he changed into a god. A few days ago he sent an IM saying he would be here at 5 pm. I sighed. He was late.
There was a flash of light then Percy appeared behind me. "Hey, wise girl."
"Percy!" I turned around and hugged Percy. I was lucky that he had appeared behind me instead of right before me.
He winced a bit and let out a soft chuckle. "Hey, I may be a god but, I can still get hurt"
Then I punched him in the arm. "That's for leaving alone for two months. I missed you so much. What were you doing that was so important?" I asked him, while glaring at him.
"Oh, this and that. I've been talking to the other gods and they still don't get why I became a god. Also we've been seeing what kind of god I am. So, for some reason, I've taken Gaea's place as the god of the Earth. Also, they've given me another title as the god of demigods. I've received many new powers to the original I had when I accidentally became a god. I am now in charge of demigods," he explained. "Anyways, I'm really sorry I couldn't come back sooner. Forgive me?" Percy continued as he looked at me with his sea green eyes looking really sorry but at the same time full of mischief.
"No. I will definitely not forgive you. As I said, you left me all alone for two whole months with no one but Clarisse, Leo, and a few others. So you can wallow in in your sorrow for the rest of your sorry immortal life." She said as she turned around and hid a smirk in her face. After she got her face composed, she turned around and looked at him. Percy looked crestfallen.
"Really? I'm so sorry-"
I cut him off and kissed him. "Did you really think that I would reject you?" I asked him as I hugged him. "I love you."
We stood there, hugging each other and looking out at the ocean.
"I have something to tell you," Percy said.
"What?" I asked as I wondered what he would ask. Would he ask me to live with him on Olympus, does he want to break up? I really shouldn't keep thinking negative thoughts.
Then Percy knelt down on one knee and pulled out a small diamond box and opened it and held it out towards me.
"Annabeth, will you do the honor of being my wife?"
I just stood there in shock. I froze for what seemed like years. The shock of his request hit me like a ton of bricks. After a moment, I screamed, "YES!" I felt like a kid getting candy. After Percy put the ring on her finger, he swept her off her feet, spun her around, and kissed her.
"About time!" The demigods of Camp Half-Blood rushed out of the trees, where they were hiding, shouting "Congratulations!"
"Really, we thought that you would take forever to ask her." Piper said.
"Shit, I just lost 20 drachmas," Clarisse said, "I shouldn't have bet against you.
"What? You really bet against me?" Percy asked, looking offended.
"Wahoo! You go Percy!" Leo shouted.
I blushed, but Percy just pulled me closer. "I know, but hey, we were in the middle of saving the world, right?" Percy said.
That was when Nico appeared looking very worried. He obviously shadow traveled here. He said, "Um, Percy…Annabeth, I'm sorry to bother your happy reunion, but, it's Rachel, she has the next big prophecy."
