Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN PJO\HOO. JUST THE PLOT OF THE STORY I'VE WRITTEN.
"Princess, it's morning.", I heard a voice say. The sound of the curtains being drawn and the next secnd, light falling on my eyes.
"ugh,-", I said and made the effort to get up and put on my robe.
"Good Morning, Princess", the maid said" You're mother has asked for you after you've finished eating".
"Thank you Melissa", I nodded and went towards the bathroom. After about, half an hour of getting ready and eating, I went downstairs to meet my mother.
I was walking along the corridor when I heard a few whispers from the maid's quarters.
"I cannot believe it! Oh good lord, the Princess is so lucky", I caught one saying and frowned. I decided not to think about that but to think about yesterday night. It was the best night ever! Even though there were s few slips, Percy and Nico did not find out about who we were. It was nice, for a change no oe treated you like royalty. They liked you for who you are, not for what you are. Percy, for someone famous, was not arrogant. He actually understood what it was like, to be known. And speaking of Thalia, she and Nico got along just fine. The four of us had become really good friends. I smiled at the thought of Thalia. Must be sleeping in. No one dared to wake her up.
I reached the bottom of the stairs only to come face to face with my mother, father and some other people.
I looked at my mother confused.
"Annabeth dear," she smiled. "meet King Hermes and Queen May of France, and their son, Prince Luke."
I looked over to see a man with sandy hair and brown eyes, a woman with blonde hair and blue eyes and a boy of my age with his father's sandy hair and his mother's blue eyes.
I bowed and the others returned it.
"Ah! Nice to meet you Princess, it is glad to finally meet you. You're mother sings praises!", King Hermes beamed.
"Likewise, your highness", I smiled.
"Oh stop it!" King Hermes said giddily, "you can call me Hermes, since now, you're going to be wed to my son".
Um…..WHAT?
I looked at my parent's questioningly. The both of them had a smile on their face.
"I'm sorry?" I asked.
"You're gonna get married Anna! Isn't that great?!" my father said.
Nuh huh nope dad, not great.
I looked over at Luke who seemed calm at the news and glared at him. He frowned at my behavior and said, "Well, wont it be better if we get time alone to get to know each other?" he asked. Huh, someone's being sensible.
The elder's nodded their heads and left but not before my mother saying that there is going to be a special ball tomorrow for the occasion and a special guest arriving. If I wasn't confused before, I was certainly now. I left Luke at the stairs and ran towards Thalia's room and banged at her door.
"Thalia! Open up!" I yelled. I could hear Luke's footsteps way behind me.
The door opened up and I was face to face with a grumpy Thalia.
"What?!" she asked annoyed.
"I'm getting married." I said. And that was enough for her to pull me into her room and shutting the door on Luke's face as he just arrived.
Percy's POV
Man, last night was amazing. Anna was really nice to hang out with. She actually understood me.
"Perce, here's an invitation" Nico said and I switched off the TV which was blaring news about our half finished concert and how we left it.
"Who's sent it?" I asked confused.
Nico plopped down beside me, "The Royals have. It's an invitation to a ball, you're the special guest. It invites four, including you. Who're the other two you're gonna take?" he asked.
I laughed " so you've invited yourself huh death boy?"
Nico glared at the nickname but ignored me otherwise.
"Well ,we could call the girls, Anna and Tracy" I suggested.
Nico brightened up when I mentioned Tracy. Those two sooo liked each other, even if it was one night. They bonded pretty well, and believe me when I say this. Nico never ever 'bonds'.
"Yeah sounds cool" he said and switched on the TV again.
"Sweet." I said and went up to call the girls.
They're inviting them to their own party?! This is sure getting interesting isn't it?
See you all Later! Thanks for the Reviews! :*
