The Mark of Athena Chapter 2

I'm so sorry it took me so long to update but I have been really busy. That and I haven't been able to get to a computer! I really want more reviews because the more reviews I get, the longer the chapters and the faster the updates! BTW: The disclaimer is on the first chapter and I am not rewriting it on every chapter so get over it! I am so sorry that it took me forever to write.


Percy POV

I am laying there still stunned as ever when I see HER! It was Annabeth, my one and only memory that had stayed with me before I got my memory back. Annabeth; my one and true love. When she came into my vision, everything else was a blur. Her beautiful stormy gray eyes, that long, beautiful, flowing blonde hair. When I saw her my heart melted in an instant. I never knew that true love could dawn upon a person so fast until this moment, then it all came clear. She was mine and mine only forever. That was when reality hit me like all of Hades. I saw tears in her eyes and I realized she was looking at me. It was then when I got up and ran like never before. In a blur of blue I was at her side and she hugged me.

My dear sweet Annabeth was bawling like a baby into my arms. Instantly my shirt was soaked but I didn't care. I hugged her as gently as I could, but she hugged me so ferociously that if I wasn't me, I would have screamed. I hugged her just as hard and we stood there like that for who knows how long. When she eventually stopped crying hard enough to talk she said, "I missed you so much Seaweed Brain." Then her voice started to raise until she was yelling. "FOR EIGHT FREAKING MONTHS I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU! EIGHT MONTHS! I CANT BELIEVE YOU LEFT ME LIKE THAT!" then her voice came down to a whisper, "I love you soooo much, and if you ever leave me like that again, I will kill you."

"Hey its not my fault that Hera kidnapped me!" I said in defense, "blame her Wise Girl, not me." To that Annabeth only smiled. I was so happy to see her again. Then I tilted her head up and kissed her. Our kiss was long and full of passion, and love. How long we were kissing, I don't know. But to me time had stopped and it was only me and her. I could have gone all day, but a rude and loud "AHEMMMM" rang through the crowd and into our ears. I pulled back to see literally every single person staring at us. It was shocking yet amusing at the same time. That was when Reyna came up to the front of the crowd and spoke. "Percy if you will please come forward, we have business to handle. And it would be preferred if you left her behind." Growing red I walked off the boat and went up to Reyna. For what felt like an eternity, Reyna talked until I heard the final words. "Dinner will be in two hours so treat the Greeks like you would anybody else and be on time or face the consequences."

It was then when I walked up to Annabeth and we ran into the night.

It was a quarter till nine when we made it back to camp. For the past hour and 45 minutes, we had been walking in the woods kissing, catching up, and kissing some more. We had eight months of things to talk about. I had told her all about my latest quest while she told me about how camp was doing. She also filled him in on the three people Jason, Leo, and Piper. She told him all about what had happened between him and Jason during the time he had blacked out. I had no idea at what had happened during that time, but now I knew and I was shocked. I had no idea that I could do that and the revelations that it could hold were out of this world. I couldn't even contemplate what could become of this but I didn't care. All that mattered right now was Annabeth and being on time for dinner. Little did I know that the events of the next day would change our lives like never before.
