Authors note: After three long months this beautiful piece of writing is done. I've very much enjoyed writing this and I hope you enjoy reading it. You are in store for laughs, cries and probably cringing!
Disclaimer - I wrote this for my friend, Sharone Chambers, so this isn't written with the fandom in mind (sorry!) This takes place after Blood of Olympus there aren't many spoilers but I wouldn't read if you haven't read BoO. I don't own Percy Jackson or its characters, Rick Riordan does.
MERRY CHRISTMAS SHARONE! (mrsdoddsscaresme)
NOW WITHOUT FURTHER ADUE BEGIN TO READ! :D

Percy and Annabeth were leaving Camp Half-blood for New Rome in a week and they couldn't have been more excited. They had no more quests to venture on and no more ugly or annoying monsters to fight. Annabeth could finally study to become an architect. Percy didn't really know what he wanted to study, he would just see what caught his eye.

Everything was going according to plan. They sat on the beach catch up as they had both been busy during the past few days. There was a small warm breeze that whipped their hair. It smelt of the sea. Percy held onto Annabeth's soft hand, the feel of their hands touching was all so natural to them.

"Okay," Percy said, "How am I not Nico's type?"

Annabeth shook her head and gave Percy a slight shove and said jokingly, "You seem to be really hung up over Nico recently... Is there something you need to tell me Percy?"

Percy laughed, "No, its just bugging me. Where is Nico anyway?"

"Probably helping out Will."

They said nothing for a while after that. They sat there enjoying each others company. They kissed but it was cut short by Jason, who came and sat down in front of them. His purple SPQR top stood out to all of the orange t-shirts. They had to do a double take because Jason was meant to be in New Rome.

"Promise not to freak out." He said eagerly.

"What is it?" Percy asked.

"Just promise!"

"Okay, I promise."

"Rachel is back."

They looked at Jason like he'd gone crazy. The statement was pretty ludacris.

"I thought Rachel was going to try to reconstruct the Sibylline books." Annabeth said.

"So did we but she started having seizures. Our medics couldn't help her so we messaged Chiron and asked if we could bring her here."

"Can we see her?"

"No, she is in the infirmary. Wait until the Apollo kids come out to tell us what's going on."

With that, Jason lay on his back and looked up at the sky. He began to tell the couple about all of the research he had been doing and the people he'd been in contact with to make sure that he could start collecting all of the data for the gods. Jason thought about mentioning how helpful it would have been to have Leo around but it wasn't the time for it.

He got up and brushed off sand that had stuck to him. He said his goodbyes and left the two to talk.

A scream made them jump. They turned and saw people from the Apollo cabin running out and crying. Percy and Annabeth looked at each other and then ran over to them.

"What's wrong you guys." Percy said.

"Our... Music!" sobbed a son of Apollo, "We can't play anything! Listen to this madness!"

The sobbing boy grabbed a guitar and began to play. It sounded like a million cats screeching all at once. The boy began to wail and he throw the guitar away. Annabeth comforted the boy and he stopped crying.

"What do we do?" Percy asked.

Annabeth looked up at him, "It isn't our place in interven."

"That's a first Annabeth."

"I swear to the Gods, I could hit you right now. We are going to New Rome next week and I don't want to get dragged into something."

"I guess you're right." Percy laughed.

"Watch it, seaweed brain."
