Okay guys I had this idea while at the library I know wired right? Anyway I seen a title of a Fanfiction call "Who are you?" and this thought came to mind anyway hope you like it.
(Annabeth's POV)
"It's a girl Miss. Chase." The doctor told me after ten minutes of pushing
I couldn't help but smile. I couldn't wait to hold her in my arms, or for her to meet her father. He would be so proud and happy to see her after he gets back from his quest.
"What are you going to name her Annabeth?" Thalia asked me
"Arabella Perl Jackson. Percy got to pick the middle name if you can't tell." I told her with a sleepy smile on my face.
"Yeah, you can tell he did." She told me with a smile
"Annabeth would you like to hold your daughter?" one of the nurses asked me
"Yes please." I told her holding out my arms for her to give me Arabella
She handed me mine and Percy's child and my motherly instincts took over. I elevated her head in the crook of my arm and just looked at her. She had Percy's sea green and a mixture of mine and his hair. You know how when girls bleach the top layer of their hair blond and has the darker color up under that? Well that's what her hair looks like and it has a wavy curl to it. She was so cute.
"She is so cute Annabeth." Thalia told me
"Yeah she is." I said
"I'm going out to tell everyone you guys are fine. I will be back with Sally in a few minutes." Thalia told me and left
Arabella grabbed my figure and looked at it. She kept flipping my hand looking at it like it was from a different world. She giggled when I moved my finger. After the doctor was done fixing me up she let the family come in. Sally and Thalia were the first two in the room and got by my side. When Sally seen Arabella she started to tear up.
"Can I hold her?" Sally asked me
"Yeah ,here." I told her carefully handing her Arabella
"She is so cute. She looks like Percy when he was a baby, but she is a little more cuter." Sally told me
Someone came into the room and I looked to see Chiron, in his wheelchair.
"Hey Chiron." I said
"Hello Annabeth how are you feeling?" he asked me
"Pretty good really tiered." I told him
"Is there any news on the guys yet?" Thalia asked him
"No we still haven't heard anything." He told her
"Hey guys I think we should leave. Looks like mommy and baby are tiered." Sally told them as I yawned
"Yeah come on they will be here tomorrow. Goodnight Annabeth." Thalia said
"Goodnight guys." I told them and Sally laid Arabella down in the crib with her name on it in my room.
I listened to Arabella's breath as I fell asleep.
(Two months later)
"Thalia I'm sure everything is fine. The guys should be back any day now." I told her
"Annabeth it's been three and a half months already. Why aren't they back yet?" she asked
Then the horn blew. We looked at each other. My sister Becca nodded to me that she had Arabella and walked with Thalia to the big house. When we walked in the Apollo campers were running around like they were in a rush. I saw Chiron waiting for us with Piper. Piper was in tears trying to calm herself down, that worried me.
"What's going on?" I asked
"Nico and Leo are back. They are in the infirmary." Chiron told us
"Where is Percy?" I asked him
"He didn't make it." Chiron told us
I felt like my world had just stopped. I couldn't move or breath. I could feel the tears stinging my eyes and tried to fight them off.
"Wh-what do you mean?" I asked him
"I'm really sorry Annabeth." Chiron said getting a little misty eyed himself.
Thalia hugged me when I started to cry. I felt hallow inside like I was in a dark place. Thalia was crying to, Percy meant everything to everyone here at camp and when word gets out about his death they are all going to be devastated. I let tears fall down my face. They were warm against my icy cold cheeks. I had to be strong for everyone right now. If I lost it then everyone would look at me with pity.
"Where are Nico and Leo?" I asked Chiron between breaths.
"Nico is passed out but Leo is still conches. He has a head injury and his arm is broken. They are in the infirmary." Chiron told me
"We need to go see them." I told Thalia
She nodded whipping the tears from her face trying to be strong right now like me. I took a breath before walking into Leo's room. We walked in and Leo was just lying there looking at the ceiling.
"Leo." I said
"I'm so sorry Annabeth. We tried to…." He started but I cut him off
"Stop it's not your fault. I'm fine." I told him
He just looked at me. "So what happened?" I asked him
"I don't really know I was knocked out and didn't wake up until Nico was helping me up off the ground getting ready to shadow travel us all out but Percy would come with us. He said he could live with himself if we died because of him. Then we were ambushed again and Nico got me out but couldn't get to Percy." He told us
"What happened with Nico how was he?" Thalia asked him
"When we got here he passed out. He was so tired he barely made it back here by shadow travel." He told us
"You get some rest we are going to go check on Nico." I told him
Thalia walked in front of me out the door but Leo stopped me half way out.
"I'm really sorry Annabeth." He told me
I walked out the rest of the way to go talk to Nico.
(Two weeks Later)
We burnt Percy's shrine about a week ago. I had remembered the first time we burnt it and he showed up. I wished it had been that way this time but it never happened. Poseidon and Athena came along with most of the Gods and Goddesses. Even Zeus came and said a few things about Percy. I was sitting on the beach with Arabella just looking out into the water. I had held myself together for the past two weeks I lost it a little when my mom gave me a hug and told me how sorry she was. I brought Arabella to the beach often; it made me feel like Percy was still around with me and would always make me feel safe. I heard footsteps behind me but didn't care to look.
"Annabeth." I heard someone say
"Yeah Thalia?" I asked her
"I know you're not okay." I heard her say
I looked and seen her, Nico, Leo, Piper, Grover, and Juniper standing there.
"Yes I am." I told her turning back to watch Arabella.
"Annabeth we know what you are trying to do." I heard Nico say
I didn't say anything.
"Annabeth you don't have to be strong for us. We all know that you miss him." Grover told me
I stood up still not facing them. Tears started to form in my eyes and were trying to escape.
"Annabeth we are worried about you. The whole camp is. You haven't been yourself and we just want to help you." Thalia told me
"I miss him Thalia, more than you can image." I told her as the tears fell down my face
"That's okay, we all miss him." Piper told me
"Annabeth I know how you feel. I lost my mom when I was younger and I know what it's like trying to be strong for everyone else. It gets harder as time goes on." Leo told me
I san Thalia walk in front of me and everyone fallowed her league.
"June, why don't you take Arabella to see Chiron for a bit." Thalia said to her
"Okay." She told her and took Arabella
"Annabeth sweetie no one here is going to think less of you if you cry." Thalia told me
"I can't believe he is gone Thalia. What am I going to do? I don't want Arabella to grow up like this. Why did he have to go on that stupid quest? Why him?" I told her braking down a little more
"I know sweetie I know. Everything will be fine in the end." She told me pulling me into a hug
"No it won't Thalia! Percy's gone and he's not coming back! He's never going to see Arabella, or see her grow up. He is never going to be there when I need him anymore. I want him back Thalia, I don't know how I'm going to do this without him." I told her braking down completely.
She stayed quiet.
"I'm taking Arabella out of camp. I don't want her living like this." I told her
"Annabeth you know that, that is crazy." Nico told me
"I don't want my daughter fighting for her life every second of the day. I want her to live a normal life as long as possible. We are leaving tomorrow and going back into mine and Percy's apartment." I told them
Well let me know what you think guys.-Thalia
