Chapter 1
Annabeth's Thoughts July 7, 2017
My life had always been complete with Percy. He was always by my side in every battle. He had my back and there was that little romantic tie also. When I found out that Percy had died, I couldn't take the news. We had broken up at least a month before a and hadn't spoken since. I had no other choice but to move on.
Percy died three years ago and I am now twenty five. My scent has worn off, so monsters don't come after me as often. When they do find me, well I still have my knife.
I am currently working in my dream job as an architect. I live in an apartment with my boyfriend, Mark. He's a weatherman for the channel eight news and yes he knows that I'm a demigod. My life is good but it would be great if I had Percy or if my mom actually talked to me.
Percy's POV July 7, 2017
Annabeth. The name continued to stick in my mind. The day I found out that she died I cried and cried. The last thing I said to her was, "We can still be friends." She was the best thing that ever happened to me and I let her go for one reason, my dad. He forced me to break up with her or he would send me straight to the underworld. My life seemed to spiral out of control but I had to hold on, Annabeth would want that.
Now I live in a beach house on Long Island and work at a fancy restaurant called Gianni's. I haven't been in a relationship since I broke up with Annabeth, it was too hard to move on.
My father hasn't talked to me since the time he forced me to break up with Annabeth. So he hasn't talked to me for three years.
Annabeth's POV July 7, 2017
I woke up to my boyfriend calmly saying my name, "Annabeth, Annabeth, Annabeth." My eyes fluttered open and Mark gave me a quick peck on the cheek. "Morning hun. Breakfast is ready." I smiled, "You're amazing." He kissed my nose. I loved when he did that, it reminded me of something that Percy would do. I shook the thought out of my head and walked out to the kitchen. A stack of pancakes were awaiting me on the table. "Aw, Mark. You didn't have to do all this."
"I had to do something for the most amazing girl in the world." I laughed, "You are so cheesy."
"Not as cheesy as this omelet," he replied while dishing a fresh omelet onto my plate. "Well I have to go to work now. Love you," Mark said grabbing his keys and going out the door.
After devouring my breakfast and getting ready, I went to work myself.
Percy's POV July 7, 2017
"You over cooked the chicken!" My boss, Lenny, yelled at the newest chef in the restaurant. "Get out of my kitchen!" The new chef quickly gathered his things and exited out the back door. "Percy!"
"Yes sir," I replied. "Go to table three and take there order!" Lenny yelled. I picked up my notepad and pen and quickly walked to table three. "Hello, I'm Percy. I'll be your server tonight. Would you like to try our special?"
"No thank you," said a man at the table. "What would you like to drink?" I asked. "I'll have an iced tea, my wife will have a water and my son wants a coke." I nodded my head and left to get the drinks.
While I was filling cups, Tina, a co-worker, came up next to me. "Hi Percy," she said. "Hi Tina," I replied uncomfortably. Tina has a crush on me and has asked me out three times already. "So, what are you doing?"
"Filling cups," I said while finishing my last one. "Nice talking to you," Tina said. "Yeah, bye." I said while scurrying away.
When the day was over, I drove home and sat on my bed. I heard a voice in my head that I didn't recognize. It told me that I should go to Camp HalfBlood. I didn't know whether I should go or not but I decided that the voice sounded trustworthy. Before I knew it, I was on my way to camp.
I arrived at the "strawberry patch" in less than an hour. I walked towards the entrance and then towards the Big House. Chiron was on the front porch and his face lit up when he saw me. "PERCY! My gods, you have grown."
"Yeah, I am twenty five now." I replied. "It has been a long time. Come, take a seat, let's catch up." He gestured towards a seat and squished his legs into a wheelchair. "So, how are you doing?"
"I'm doing great, I've worked at a restaurant called Gianni's for about two years now." Chiron smiled, "Have you had any encounters with monsters recently?" I shook my head, "Those stopped when I turned nineteen."
"Well that's good. How's Annabeth?" My heart stopped for a moment. "Well, we broke up a month before she….."
"She what?" Chiron asked. "She left us," I replied. Chiron scratched his head, "Annabeth isn't dead."
"WHAT!"
Hehe, I left a cliffhanger there. R&R to get a new chapter. Stay tuned! :)
