Percy looked in the mirror as Paul helped him straighten his bow tie. He was grinning ear to ear, today was the day. Paul looked at him and smiled, "Are you ready, Percy?" Percy looked at his step-father still smiling, "Yea, I can't believe today is the day!"
Paul chuckled, he knew when he had first met Annabeth and saw the way her and Percy looked at each other that this would happen. "It's only a matter of time," Sally would say smiling mischievously at him as they watched Annabeth and Percy bicker back and forth. Six years later here they were, getting ready for their wedding.
I found a love for me
Darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
Percy couldn't wait, maybe it was his ADHD or maybe he was just anxious to get this show on the road. He knew he loved Annabeth more than anybody in the world and he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. As long as we're together. He thought of those words Annabeth had told him all those years ago, right before plunging into Tartarus. She was right, as usual, Percy and Annabeth would go everywhere together, fight, and conquer anything as long as they were together.
Him and Paul made their way outside the cabin they had rented in Montauk. They rented out the whole beach, beautiful waves crashed along the shore of the glistening sea. His dad seemed to be keeping it extra beautiful today just for them.
They were getting into their positions, all their family and friends from camp already seated in the rows of chairs set out on the beach. All we were waiting for was the bride.
Then he saw her.
He did everything in his power not to drool. She looked beautiful with her blond princess curls pinned up and her grey eyes shining looking straight at him. He couldn't believe he was this lucky. As she made her way to him with her arm around her dad's he could not help but think of all the moments leading up to this one moment. The good ones and the bad ones, they were all worth it if it meant he got to have her.
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow
Your heart is all I own
And in your eyes you're holding mine
He thought of his first summer at Camp Half-Blood how she had hated him at first because he was a son of Poseidon, Athena's enemy, then slowly she warmed up to him. He thought of moments in their quest, what they thought of then as an impossible task, but they completed it by working together. That's when Annabeth decided to put their parent's differences aside and become friends.
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark
With you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass
Listening to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess
I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it,
Darling, you look perfect tonight
He thought of the next few summers and how they gradually became best friends. Doing quests together and protecting each other at all costs. Saving Annabeth from the sirens in the Sea of Monsters, her tricking the cyclops, almost dying and then saving her again with the golden fleece. He thought of when she got captured and held up the sky, their dance at Westover Hall, the visit with Aphrodite goddess of love, and their matching grey streaks of hair, proof of when they held the sky on their shoulders.
Well, I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home
I found a love to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
He then thought of the Labyrinth and how they shared their first kiss, how Annabeth thought he had died, and how jealous she was of Rachel, his mortal friend. In the end he always knew he was going to choose Annabeth, there was never another option.
He then thought of when he woke up in the Wolf House with his memory gone, only one word remained and it was 'Annabeth.'
We are still kids but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes
His thoughts moved to their quest to Greece, their night in the stables aboard the Argo II when they got caught, he remembered Franks's face when he saw them. He thought of their last lunch in Rome, right before he and Annabeth had separated and he let her go on her solo quest, and he thought of hanging from the ledge right below Tartarus, making Nico promise to meet them on the other side as he let go.
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark
With you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass
Listening to our favourite song
When I saw you in that dress
Looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this
Darling, you look perfect tonight
He remembered Bob the Titan and Damasen, giving their lives to help him and Annabeth, he thought of Gaea and how how they had once again succeeded against all odds. He thought of the good times after with all their friends, Jason, Piper, Hazel, Frank, and Leo when he came back with Calypso in tow. He thought of their years in New Rome, going to college and living peacefully and lastly he thought of when he proposed, right beside the lake at Camp as the sun was setting.
He saw she was just a few steps away from him and when Frederick smiled at him and gave him his daughter's hand Percy couldn't help himself, "You look perfect, Wise Girl."
Annabeth smiled, her eyes sparkling, "You don't look so bad yourself, Seaweed Brain."
Baby, I'm dancing in the dark
With you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass
Listening to our favourite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know I have met an angel in person
And she looks perfect
I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonight
