Ok so before I start, I would like to tell you that this is my 1st PJ fanfic…so pls…be gentle. Also, I used the title "She is Yours" because I had no idea what I could use as a title. I'm just saying this so ppl don't think I'm a sexist and so I won't offend any female readers.
WARNING : SPOILERS OF LAST BOOK.
So…with that being said…on to the story.
It is set right after Percy turned down immortality and is going to speak to Athena. I will write the 1st part if you cannot remember.
Disclaimer : I Do Not Own Any Percy Jackson Material. Those Rights Are Rick Riordan's. [lucky :P.]
Also, small advert. Rick has recently published "The Red Pyramid", the 1st book of the Kane Chronicles. It's slightly better then Percy Jackson…so have fun reading it.
Another god was waiting for me by the throne room's entrance. Athena had a look on her face that said "oh no". She had changed out of her battle armuor and now wearing a blouse and a pair of jeans. But that didn't make her any less war like.
"Well Percy, you remain mortal. I know your reasons" she said.
"Well, uh, you know. I want to grow up. Have, you know, a regular high school experience." I said.
"And my daughter?" [I tried to remember as much of it as possible…because sadly…I misplaced the book. Stupid me!]
Chapter 1
I sighed. "Look." I said. Athena raise an eyebrow, as if not expecting me to answer this way. "I love Annabeth. Very much, as a matter of fact. And all you've been doing was threatening me and trying to make me fear you."
I tried to keep calm as possible but sometimes the gods just piss me off. [there I said it!]
"But you saw how she reacted whenever that mortal girl was around you." Athena said mortal as if it was the most disgusting thing ever. "You could have at least tried to comfort her, telling her of your feelings." As she said these words. Athena's eyes glowed a bit brighter.
"Yes. Yes I did. But at that time, I felt angry and confused. I was angry because Annabeth was being jealous at my friend." Athena rolled her eyes at this comment. "I mean, I'm allowed to have mortal friends, aren't I?" She was going to answer, but I continued. "I also felt confused. Confused because I didn't know how I was going to tell her that I liked her a lot." I was really angry at this point, but I still managed to continue. "And do you know why I didn't tell her?" Athena raised an eyebrow, giving me a quizzical look. "It was because of YOU!" I poked her in the chest with "you".
She gave me a bewildered look as if to say "How dare you touch me!"…she still said it!
And my reply was not something she had expected.
I started, raising my voice a bit. "I dare because you're the one that's standing between us, Athena. I dare because you're the one that's always telling me to stay away from her. I never heard Annabeth complain that Poseidon ever threatened her. Why? Because he knows what love is. He loves me and wants to see me happy. I told him that I am happy with Annabeth, so he accepted it, even though her mother is one of his enemies."
With this I turned around and was going to leave. But my stubborn mind wouldn't let it go. So I stopped, turned my head slightly towards her and asked "I thought you cared for Annabeth. I guess I was wrong." And with that comment, I continued to leave. This was a dangerous move. Athena wasn't the forgiving one when it came to insults.
But apparently, she wasn't done with me. She called out "Perseus Stop!" I stopped in my tracks. People rarely use my full name and when they do, it's because of something serious.
"Perseus" she called out again. "I just don't want to see her get hurt. She already was hurt from Luke's betrayal. I think she deserves a normal, calm life. And with you, I just don't see it."
I turned to face her and started straight into her grey eyes. Usually, I would be freaked out but now, after all those battles, I seemed to have lost that ability.
"Then if you think I'll hurt her, then your are mistaken." I stopped to think for a while and then said. "There is one was I could hurt her…and that's by listening to you and chickening out. But I won't. No matter how much you threaten me, I'll never leave her."
And then things got strange. I was still looking at her straight in the eyes, when something changed. It wasn't a bad change. It was actually a good one. I saw her change her scowl to a smile. She actually became a calm and happy Athena.
"Percy" she said in a calm voice. "Do you love her?"
At this I was going to burst in frustration…and I was a bit pissed off. "Whaaat? I've been yelling at y- " I was cut off by Athena's dangerous glare. "Answer me" she said in a calm but firm voice.
I sighed, took in a good breath of air and said.
"Yes. Yes I do. I love her, Lady Athena, more than anything in the world." I had to admit tears where starting to form.
But not before I was tackled into the ground.
Ok so, that was it! This is one way that I imagined Percy to say after being always yelled at by Athena. Please review..thanks a lot. And if you don't….. well…lets just say you'll have to be careful of lightning strikes. :P just jking. But seriously…reviews are highly appreciated and since this is my 1st PJ fanfic…highly needed.
THANKS!
