Full summary: "Annabeth!" he screamed. "Percy-""She was lost. Percy hadn't come out of his cabin in days. Whenever somebody tried to get in his cabin, a big wave would come out, nearly drowning the person," I said. I walked into the woods, not too far, though. I couldn't believe my eyes. "An-"She clomped her see through hand on my mouth, or at least tried to. "nabeth! " I whispered, surprised. "Do me a favor," Annabeth said. "What is it?" I asked. "Fill me in for Percy."

The summary says it all. You can see what this is about now, right? So that's what I'm going to write about. The intro for Lily is in 2 Ingredients to the Mythology Recipe. Read that, too. PLEASE! For those who are just going to continue reading this, she's a child of Apollo and has a way to figuring out secret passages. Rated K+

Percy's POV

I woke up in the Apollo cabin. 7 people were around me, holding weird stuff and had doctor masks on. One boy younger than me said to give him some personal space, now that I was conscious. They left quickly. I soon realized what had just happened. "Annabeth!" I screamed. A girl who had warm brown hair tied up in a ponytail and had green eyes entered the room. "Lily…" "Hi, Percy." She was holding a little plate with ambrosia. "Eat this," Lily said. She sat down on the stool next to the bed I was laying on and fed me the ambrosia. She was only a year younger than me (In the 2 Ingredients to the Mythology Recipe, it says 4 years, but I'm changing things up). I couldn't help but ask her, "Where's Annabeth?" "Eat your ambrosia first." I gulped down the godly food. I quickly turned to Lily. "She's dead-""WHAT?!" "Percy! I didn't tell you the whole story yet! We first thought she was lost. But it turned out that she's actually dead. Don't scream just yet. I took a walk in the forest and saw Annabeth. But it was her ghost. She told me something, Percy." "What was it?" I asked nervously. I felt myself burning. I wished it was the ambrosia instead, but it wasn't. "Percy, she told me to take your spot." "What does-""Percy, she meant that she wanted me to start g-g-g-"she couldn't make the words out. When she gave up on saying it, I figured out what Annabeth wanted me to do. She wanted to make me happy again, not to see the other couples while I just sit there watching. Alone. She knew that I would start bawling at the Fourth of July fireworks. We were all very close friends. Well, Annabeth and I were closer.I knew Annabeth would never let me do this, but I started crying.

Hunter's POV

It's simple. Ask Lily to go out with you, she'll say yes, and you'll live happily, Hunter. I heard from my other friends that I was the second most popular/handsome guy in this whole camp, aside from Percy. I had been asked out many times, but I rejected them all. I was aiming for Lily. I should've asked her earlier. I was scared that Percy was going to hook up with Lily since Annabeth died. I mean like, they were close friends. I was scared that they would be too close friends. I knocked on the Hermes cabin. Henry answered the door. "Sup, Hunter. Who do you wanna visit?" "Is Lily here?" "Uh, let me see. Sam, have you seen Lily?!" Henry yelled over his shoulders. "Yeah, shoving ambrosia in Percy's face. Also giving him information about Annabeth," Sam called back. "So can I come in?" I asked. "We need to give him some time after the information. Lily will be there to comfort him, but if she comes out earlier than expected, you can talk to her. Just not now. Sorry!" Henry closed the door. I decided to wait outside.

Lily's POV

"It's fine, Percy. There's nothing to cry about….. not really….. okay, forget I even said that. But Annabeth will…. Nah, can't go with the cheesy lines. Sorry, I'm not really helping you. I'll leave if you want me to." Percy shook his head. I was always Percy's friend. It was weird how my friends would always tease me for being "slick", having a crush on Percy and becoming friends. Okay, that wasn't true at all. I never developed a crush on Percy. Never. Ever. So anyways, I was shocked about what Annabeth asked me. "Percy, I'm taking this news seriously, too. Both of them. But Percy, listen. Annabeth told me she would try for rebirth, too." Percy gradually started sobbing. I just noticed that the room was all wet. The water was up to my knees. "She…." I just sat in the stool. "She… but why did she ask you to-""You never know, Percy. She might-" I stopped. I didn't tell Percy the exact way Annabeth had told me. She said she might try for rebirth, not just try. I knew why. Luke was there. Her old and still is even-though-he-died-sorta like crush. He suddenly said something that surprised me. "She said she might. She might hook up with Luke in-"that was enough might's for me. I leaned forward and kissed him. I felt my cheeks get red. I pulled up. "I'll see you later," I said, still blushing. I turned on my heel and ran out. I was going to go outside until Henry stopped me. "Hunter wants to see you. Right outside." I went outside of the cabin. Sure enough, Hunter was sitting on a bench right in front. "Hi." Hunter seemed to jump right out of his seat. "Oh, hi, Lily!" I sat next to him. Was it me, or was his face turning a little pink? "Hi. So, what did you want to talk about?" "Um, I was wondering about the Fourth of July fireworks… Um, do you want to go with me?" I flinched without meaning to. "Um, well… sorry, but no. Um, I'm sure there are lots of other people, though those have nobody to go with. Well, bye!" I said. I quickly ran towards the bathroom.

Percy's POV

"Oh Iris, please accept my offering. Show me Aphrodite wherever she is." I was mad at Aphrodite. I goddess of love and beauty showed up. "Hello, Percy Jackson. What-""WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO ME?! YOU CAUSED DEATH TO ANNABETH SO SHE COULD REUNITE WITH LUKE!" I screamed. "Oh honey, I certainly did not. That was Annabeth herself. She wanted to be with Luke. I talked to her about this, but she wouldn't listen. Bye! I need some pairing up to do!" The screen shimmered away. I felt weird and confused now. I heard a knock on the door. I opened the door, revealing Lily. "I need to show you something." She quickly grabbed my arm and dragged me to the woods. Right beside the ruins of Zeus's fist, There was a small glass screen. "Touch it," Lily said. I touched the screen and I saw a vision. There was Annabeth and Luke, kissing. I felt envy building up in my chest. Before I could burn up, Lily dragged me away from the screen. I looked at Lily. "How…" She hugged me. It wasn't irregular. She would do that whenever I started to feel like I was lonely. The whole camp had seen Lily and I hug. Even Annabeth didn't mind. Before the quest.

Did you like it? I'm not a Lukabeth fan either, but I don't know any other person. R&R!
