Alright, chapter 2. I'm happy with the statistics of the first one, considering how much of a crappy writer I am. Nevertheless, I'm not going complain. Have I ever told you I'm horrible in English. No matter how much I pay attention and take notes, I can't write well. I guess writing FanFiction is good practice. Just to clarify, I hate Lukabeth. Worst pairing ever. Second you may ask? Perchel. 2 very bad pairings that should never ever happen. This chapter takes place a week after the first. Anyways onto Chapter 2.

I have a general idea on what's going in the story. Don't even think about a general summary because you're not going to get one.

I don't own PJO.


Being engaged to Percy was probably the best thing that ever happened to Annabeth. For some reason, she became more giddy whenever she was near Percy. Definitely not the same Annabeth before she met him. The old Annabeth was a workaholic, isolated, and frankly boring. Percy has definitely a huge game changer in her life.

Annabeth woke up to the smell of pancakes drifting her way. She got up, fixed her pajamas. And walked to the kitchen to see Percy making blue pancakes.

When Percy heard Annabeth's arrival, he turned his head and grinned. Annabeth walked towards him and gave him a quick peck on the lips before snuggling herself into the side of Percy.

"Morning beautiful." Said Percy. Wrapping his right arm around Annabeth and kissing the top of her head.

"Good morning Seaweed Brain." Annabeth replied.

Percy let go of her, and told her to sit down as he would be done soon.

Annabeth sat down and played with the ring on her left hand. She couldn't stop admiring it. She started dating Percy on his 16th birthday. And they've been happy ever since, sure they had their fights here and there, but what relationship doesn't? They managed to survive being away from each other in college. That showed how special their bond is.

Annabeth was broken out of her thoughts when Percy set down a plate of pancakes in front of her. She simply smiled at him, poured the syrup, and ate.

Small talk was established, but they didn't want to let discussions ruin this peaceful morning. Before both of them had to go to work.


"Yes Drew, I'm sorry you had to wait. Yes yes, I love you too. Goodbye." The man said.

Once the call ended, he rolled his eyes. The man shoved his phone into his pocket and continued to walk.

"I don't know why you're still with Drew if you clearly don't like her." Said his friend. The man rolled his eyes once more and kept walking.

"It's all part of the plan, Drew is just a pawn. I'll get rid of her soon." The man said. His friend shrugged his shoulders in a non-caring manner. They both arrived at the building they were heading too. They walked inside and rode the elevator to one of the top floors.

The man and his friend exited the elevator and reached the secretary's desk.

"Hello, do you mind if my colleague and I speak with Annabeth Chase? We have an appointment with her." The man asked.

The secretary smiled, "Of course, what are your names?"

"I'm Luke Castellan, and he is Ethan Nakamura."

"Yes I see. Representatives of Hermes. Just walk through those doors, she should be in there."

Luke didn't even bother to say thank you, he just walked in. Ethan quickly thanked the secretary before hurriedly going after Luke into the office. The woman, Annabeth Chase, was sitting in the chair looking at her laptop. Luke cleared his throat and Annabeth looked up.

"You must be Luke and Ethan, pleasure to meet you two." Annabeth stood up and extended her hand for a handshake. A flash of recognition came over her eyes before quickly going away. Luke saw this, but gladly took it and took a quick glance at Annabeth's clothing. A white blouse, pencil skirt, and flats. She looked much much better than Drew.

"Pleasure is all mine." Luke replied. Ethan just nodded his head before sitting down.

For another hour or so, it was all plain business talk. Though, Luke's mind was far from the business Annabeth wanted.

Soon enough Annabeth's phone rang, that made Luke snap out of his state of thinking and fix his eyes towards the phone. Annabeth picked up her phone and a small smile danced upon her lips.

"Excuse me, it's my Fiancee. Do you mind if I take this?"

At the mention of, "Fiancee." Luke was already grinding his teeth. Ethan sensed his friend's anger and annoyance, he quietly told Annabeth they didn't mind. She stepped out of the room to answer the call.

Once Annabeth was outside, she answered the phone with a smile on her face.

"Hey Seaweed Brain."

"Hey Wise Girl. I was thinking lunch, the two of us. I'm just about to enter my break."

Annabeth being Annabeth, she wouldn't pass up an offer to attend lunch with her Husband-To-Be. But she did have clients to attend to. And she didn't want to be rude, she already interrupted their meeting with a phone call.

"Sorry Percy, I'm in a meeting with a client. Maybe later?"

Percy's tone of voice instantly became dejected. He loved spending time with Annabeth.

"Oh alright. Later. Call me okay?"

"Okay bye."

Annabeth sighed and entered the office again. She plopped down in the chair and resumed the meeting like nothing happened.

After the meeting was over, when Luke and Ethan left. And Annabeth proceeded to call Percy and organize a pick-up time.

"I hate Percy Jackson."

"Luke, that's the 5th time you've said that. Relax."

"No, I'm not going to relax. Did you see Annabeth? She was absolutely beautiful."

Ethan sighed. Helping his friend was hopeless. He was literally in love with a girl that he could never get.

"I remember the exact day I lost her. She doesn't even remember me."


"Luke. I seriously think we need some time apart. The fighting is to much right now." Annabeth said, with tears forming in her eyes.

Luke nodded. He looked behind Annabeth where her friend was waiting, scrolling through his phone. Luke absolutely hated that guy, but he showed restraint, he was Annabeth's long-time friend.

"But Annabeth. We will get back together, right?"

Annabeth hesitated before answering. Luke saw this. "I don't know Luke. Maybe if you control your anger, we could get back together."

Luke clenched his jaw then nodded again.

"Do I at least get a kiss good-bye?" Luke asked.

"Annabeth, it's time to go. Your parents are waiting for you." Percy yelled.

"Sorry Luke, you're going to have to wait for that kiss."

Then, Annabeth steps away from the doorframe and walks back to the car. Luke, standing there with swimming emotions. Hoping to get her back.


Well, Luke never got that kiss. Nor did he get her back. They were 15 at this time. Months before Annabeth decided to move onto Percy. Luke wanted to kill Percy for taking Annabeth away from him.

Soon enough, his phone was ringing. By the ringtone, he could tell it was Drew. He couldn't ignore it as she would probably kill him the next time she saw him.

Drew's like that. The super annoying clingy girlfriend.

Of course, how Luke and Drew met up was no surprise. They saw each other at a bar. Luke bought them a couple drinks. Next morning, they're in bed together. But naturally, this was all fake. He just needed Drew for his plan, his plan to get Annabeth back. As soon as he got her, he would dump Drew.

Yes Drew would throw a fit. Probably hit him with some things. Cry, then move onto another boyfriend. Like the other fifty she has had. Most of them only used her for, intimate relations. She was in it for the love. She thought Luke was the one. God was she wrong.

All Luke needed to do was get Percy out of the way. He would cause them to start fighting, and when Annabeth becomes upset, he would swoop in and comfort her. Then, it will all be smooth sailing from there. Oh the joy.

Luke answers the phone, and walks towards the apartment he is sharing with Drew. And prepares for another potential love session.


So this chapter was more of basing off Luke's past. And developing what he wants to do in the present. I hope this was good enough for you guys. Yes it's short but I want to make it short in order for more interest in the story. I have so much going on in my life right now guys. I have exams coming up. My great grandma died a couple days ago. My uncle and his pregnant wife are moving to Canada. It's all so much. Anyways. See you guys later, paintball331 out.
