Chapter 2

Percy's P.O.V

"Percy. Can I talk to you?" Annabeth said next to me.

"Yeah, just one thing..." I trailed off. I leaned over and kissed her. She pushed me away. She wouldn't usually do that.

"Thats why I want to talk."

What?! I wanted to scream.

"You see Percy..." she choked. She sniffled. "Actually, nevermind."

"Uh, ok. If you wanna talk to me baby, you know you can right?" I asked wrapping my arms around her.

"Yeah."

That was kinda weird. Usually Annabeth wouldn't push me away like that. Usually it would just get worse from there... Was she trying to tell me something? Was that why she pushed me away? I was so confused. But one thing I was almost positive.

Annabeth was keeping a secret from me.

"Mary! You in here?" I yelled into our cabin. Nothing.

"Huh. Odd. Where could she be?" I questioned myself.

I walked around all the other cabins. No sign of Mary. I walked to the Big House. Nope. I finally went to the beach and what I saw I didn't like.

Mary and Luke were kissing.

"Hey Mary!" I called.

She shoved Luke away. It was kinda funny, the expression on his face was a little afraid. Like he wanted to run away. He knew how protective I was of my baby sister.

"Uh hey Percy!" Mary said nervously. I heard her say quietly to Luke, "I'll see you later."
She hurried to my side.

"What are you doing?" I asked her quietly as we walked away.

"I was with Luke. What did it look like?" She thought about that for a moment. "Ok i know what it looked like."

"Its ok," I lied.

She smiled. "I know how much hes changed Percy. And trust me. I'll break his heart before he breaks mine. But I have no plan on doing that," she said silently.

Oh no. I thought. Was she serious about Luke. Crap.
