A/N- Percy and Annabeth grow up and fall in love-but where was Rachel? She was there...trust me.

I plan on this story to be next to 3-4 chapters. So I will be updating it. This is in Rachel's POV, just to make it clear. Enjoy!

"Annabeth, do you really want me to do this?" I asked, trusting Annabeth to make the right choice. Annabeth adjusted a pin on her over-flowing wedding dress as she looked up at me.

"Rachel, I wouldn't want anyone else to do it other than you." She said, a deep amount of trust in her gray eyes.

"But you have your half sisters, and Thalia! I mean, wouldn't they be a better choice?" I asked her again, making sure she was positive.

Annabeth stared at me with a "are you crazy?" look. "Rachel, stop being silly. I want you to be my bridesmaid, and there's nothing holding you from it."

Sometimes, I thought there was.


The wedding was beautiful. Annabeth was beautiful. Had I made it beautiful enough? It was being held in a large open space in the tropics. Percy, who of course was son of Poseidon, insisted that the wedding be held somewhere tropical. So, with a little help from the gods, we planned the wedding on a beach.

The area was beautiful and warm. Palm trees with coconuts stood up straight and porud, just as you see them in the vacation commercials. The sea was spraying white mist over the shore as it bounced over rocks. Every now and again, you would see the tail of a dolphin in the distance as it hopped over the water.

I had been a main part in decorating. I had gotten the inspiration from a small pink pearl I had found on the shore. It was smooth and shiny, and was the soft pink of a salmon with little hints of blue and white flecks. I had based the wedding off of it. The flower girls would throw white flower petals over the blue satin aisle as the two beloved came after them with a big bouqet of soft pink flowers. The arch at the end was like the sort of thing only found in old "Little Mermaid" videos. It was blue and gold with white flowers hanging from the top. Lovely.

The chairs were white, but each one was draped with a pink rose and a small piece of chocolate wrapped in blue paper. It was so beautiful, I was almost surprised at myself. And with the sun setting at just the right angle, this would be a wedding to remember.

My dress, which Annabeth had chosen for me, was blue and silky accompanied with blue satin gloves, and a small bouquet of blue flowers.


Soon, that big moment came. I was walking down the aisle in my blue dress. I looked into the crowd of people, who were crying. I kept my head up, trying to be one of them. This would be a perfect day for Percy and Annebeth. Percy looked absolutely handsome from where I was standing. His thick black hair was swooped across his face. His sea green eyes shined brighter than the sun. In those eyes, there was still a hint of childhood memories from when he and Annabeth first met. His black suit sported a small blue flower in the top pocket. He smiled, not at me, but at Annabeth. I can't help but think, "Did I do it right?"

This was a huge day. If Annabeth or Percy ever had kids, they would be the first quarter-bloods ever known. That was pretty important. But right now, I could tell Percy didn't care at all about that. Right now, he just cared about Annabeth.

As I walk to the side, I can't help but shed a tear. Annabeth looks just as beautiful. Her gray eyes shined as bright as Percy's. Her blond hair was glittered in sparkles, and the bouquet in her arms seemed to jump up towards her perfect make-up. Things couldn't have gone better. For them,


As the priest said his final words, the whole crowd blew up in tears.

"I do." were the only words heard from Annabeth, who's face was red with tears of happiness as the newlyweds had their kiss. From there, the whole beach celebrated. I rushed up to give Annabeth a hug.

"Did I do good?" I sqeak between tears. I feel Annabeth hug me tighter.

"Of course. You did it perfectly."

But did I? Or was she just saying that?


I'm standing in between Poseiden and Athena, wishing both their son and daughter good luck. There is a big crowd of people behind me, waving goodbye as the newlyweds ride off to there honeymoon. The sun is just lowering, creating the night sky. Tiki torches line the beach, and people are sitting under the stars, enjoying the full moon. I have heard of stories about Apollo and Artemis not being here, but on the sun and moon. I had heard that they had perfected the setting and rising to go with the wedding. Well, if they were, they were doing a heck of a good job at it.

With Percy and Annabeth off in the mountains, I was left here with the others. Not that I minded...well, I can't say I did.

The important thing was that they were happy, right?

A/N- This is my first story written in Rachel's POV- tell me if you think I got anything wrong. I'm working on different phases in Percy and Annabeth's life and how exactly Rachel fits into it. Reviews help a lot!!
