2nd Chapter guys!As I promised,a surprise.

Really really big surprise.

Review guys!Thanks.

And I don't own anything from PJO,unfortunately.

The lake was spectacular today,actually more than ever when I came. I guess I know why,good things turn better when you share it with someone special right? And the sleeping figure on my shoulder was that 'special someone'. You guessed it, she was Annabeth Chase.

As I looked beyond the lake's horizon as far as my eyes could see while the sun set quietly,casting a radiant golden glow onto the lake,while its warmth spread across our entire figures. Annabeth's hair seemed to glow,her face lit up by the fading sun. She was perfect. And now,she was all mine.

I lifted a gentle figure and let it slide down her cheek,trailing her cheekbones as my index found her chin. Cupping her cheek,i decided to place a gentle kiss upon her lips. Smooth move Percy,smooth move. As I kissed her lips,i felt her kiss back,while a hand pushed my head closer to hers.

Annabeth stirred gently,rousing from her slumber,her grey eyes slowly opening to look into mine. A smile formed on her face when we made contact. Her hand lifted to touch mine,pulling me down for another kiss. It was a slow,lingering one,and our foreheads rested against each other.

"Wakey-wakey sleepyhead." I whispered gently. I hope my breath didn't smell like sea water.

"I'm up Percy. You sure have a good way of waking me up don't you." She replied with a cheeky grin.

If I got to wake her up everyday this way,it would be heaven,absolutely heaven. Life was fantastic.

I carried her up bridal style,before placing her down at the end of the jetty. As I walked forward,i felt her tug at my hand. Knowing what she wanted,i intertwined my fingers with hers. It felt like a jigsaw puzzle piece fitting mine,and the puzzle would be complete. She squeezed my hand gently and occasionally,and all I could do was wonder how the daughter of Athena would fall for the son of her mother's sworn enemy. Love works in funny ways I guess.

I kissed Annabeth before leaving her at the door of the cabin. Dinner would be ready anytime soon,so I decided to go take a bath. It was the first dinner at Camp Half-Blood,so we had a tradition for it to be the most special one. Dinner on the first and last days of camp required you to wear your formal attire,and where everyone could sit around at any table and just take in the atmosphere of our surroundings. The friends,the company,the magical environment. Camp Half-Blood was no doubt my favorite place in the world. If it was supposed to exist on the world that is.

I only wished my brother Tyson would be here alongside with me,i could sure use some company in the Poseidon Cabin. We had not seen each other since Zeus knows how long,so I was really looking forward to spend some time with him.

But he was lucky to be away this time. Things from here got a whole lot worst.

As I looked in the mirror to check my suit,i made sure that Riptide was in my pocket,along with my watch on my wrist. I was lucky to have them with me tonight. I had no idea I was going to use it to protect the people I had grown to love so much.

As I stepped out of the cabin,i could see the campfire light being lit already. I saw Juniper adjusting Grover's bow tie while the Stoll brothers walking down the path towards center of camp. I had to admit,i was right about the Aphrodite girls looking at them while the brothers walked down the pavement,occasionally sending flirty winks to the girls in the Aphrodite Cabin. Suddenly I felt that I wasn't that awesome after all.

As I saw the Athena Cabin's door open,i felt my hands start to sweat. I had to made sure they were dry,so I used some of the advantages of being a son of Poseidon to help my dire situation. The red rose that I was going to give to Annabeth seemed to suddenly feel heavy in my arms. Malcolm came out first and eyed me like a eagle.

"You look quite the charmer Percy,"Malcolm came over and put a reassuring hand on my shoulder before walking away.

"You look good,all the best with my sis!"

I walked up the steps,hoping to find Annabeth,i almost tripped over thin air when I saw her. I couldn't help but stare.

It wasn't everyday that Annabeth wore a dress. A blue dress at that,my favorite color. Her hair was fixed into curls that trailed down her side,her dress stopping at her knees,while she walked confidently on white heels. She was breathtaking. I had seen many beautiful things on my long journey in quests, missions. I even had a chance to see Calypso, but I knew now what was the most beautiful thing on Earth,maybe through out the universe.

Annabeth Chase,my girlfriend, was the most gorgeous being on Earth. I forced a gulp down my throat, trying to regain my composure. I dropped the rose on the floor, nervously trying to pick it up.

Giggling again, Annabeth's giggling. I picked the rose up,and gave it to her.

"Aww,thanks Seaweed Brain. Its beautiful. Where do you think it would fit on my dress?Oh I know!"Annabeth giggled excitedly. She placed the rose in my suit pocket,snug in my suit. She looked at my tie,and adjusted it a bit.

"Your tie Percy,its crooked. Does your mom have to do this for you always?" Annabeth said while her hands worked nimbly on my tie. All I could do was stare at her,i knew it was rude,but I didn't really care anymore now.

"Percy,what are you looking at?Is there something on my face?" Annabeth turned around to face the mirror,her hands still on my tie. I took her hands off,turned her face towards mine,and kissed her lips. I gave her a long kiss. The types that made you want more.

She smiled when we broke the connection. I took her hand,and walked down the steps of the Cabin. I wanted to show the world that Annabeth Chase was not single anymore. She belonged to me. As I clutched her hand tightly,she clung onto my arm,squeezing it gently when we felt ogling eyes set upon us.

Some of the campers looked and smiled,while some stomped in dismay. I saw a dark-haired brunette from the Aphrodite Cabin stomp her feet in protest. I had never seen her before,but I guess I didn't want to anyway. As me and her approached the tables,we decided to sit near Grover and Juniper. Grover smiled in pride when he saw my hand with Annabeth's,while Juniper giggled excitedly. The Stoll Brothers made fun of me,but I knew they only meant well. Malcolm smiled appreciatively when he saw Annabeth with me,and some other campers like Clarisse and Chris nodded knowingly as well. Nico wasn't around,but if he was in camp,it would be safer than anywhere else.

Music was playing through the big speaker behind the stand where Chiron stood. I had no idea what the first song was,but as the second song progressed,i knew somehow that I had heard this before on the radio. What was her name again?Taylor something something. Swift if I wasn't wrong. Anyways there we sat,talking about how awesome this summer would be. I personally mentioned that I was glad everything was over.

What a dumb-ass I am.

For not more than five minutes, Chiron stood on the stand before we heard a loud howl. Argus came running from the back,whispering into Chiron's ear. Something was wrong.

"Campers!We are overrun,grab your weapons and proceed to defensive positons. Dinner is postponed!I want all campers to be on full alert. Do you understand?" Chiron exclaimed.

I turned to look at Annabeth. She wasn't there. She was gone,but how? She was right there! How could it be?How could she have just dissapeared?

"PERCY!HELP ME!"Annabeth's shrill scream shot through me. I felt a chill rock my body. Uncapping Riptide, I ran towards the woods,where the scream came from.

I had to save her.
