Hestia helped me into my house on Olympus as I couldn't stand, I could feel myself getting weaker everyday hopefully spending tomorrow night with Sally would prolong it.

Hestia sat me down on the bed "you need to rest otherwise you won't be strong enough to attend the party"

I rolled my eyes at her and she gave me a concerned look.

I was really excited Hestia had demanded that I mustn't teleport again as it will mean I won't be strong enough for the party so Hestia summoned a car for me it was a dark blue Aston Martin DB9 and I was driving towards Sally's apartment

I arrived at the apartment and went up in the elevator and approached her door and knocked, she opened the door and I was speechless she was wearing an ocean blue knee high dress that flowed like the sea. Her brown hair rolled down her shoulders and she looked stunning

"H..hi"

I'm such an idiot sometimes I mentally slapped myself

"Well are we going to leave"

"oh yes the cars in the parking lot"

We went down in the elevator and I still couldn't get over how beautiful she looked, when we got to the car I let her in and drove off at full sped to the empire state building we took the elevator to the top and when Sally saw Olympus she gasped

"It's, it's beautiful"

"yes it is"

We entered the main hall where the demigods and gods were along with many other people the muses were playing meaning you only heard what you wanted to hear. I overheard someone saying that Percy and his friends would be singing later, I never knew Percy could sing. Sally was trying to act calm but I could see the excitement in her kaleidoscope eyes.

"so would you like to get something to eat"

She nodded her presence made me feel better which I was relieved of we stood and talked for ages after seeing Percy and his friends, just enjoying each other's presence when we heard Percy voice from the stage

" we are going to be singing a few songs written by us mainly based on the war, the first one is new divide by me thank you"

With that they started playing and it was surprisingly good and Percy could really sing and play the guitar, Apollo came over and started talking to me not realising Sally was there.

"Hey Uncle P who knew Percy could sing like that almost as good as one of my kids"

"Hello Apollo yes it is quite a surprise"

Apollo seemed to realise that Sally was stood there for the first time and took off his shades and smile his blinding smile

"Uncle P who is this stunning lady"

"This Apollo is Sally Jackson" I said in a tone that clearly meant hands off

"THE Sally Jackson, the one who caused Poseidon to break his oath, Percy's Mum"

Sally looked rather flustered and slightly confused

"Yes that is her"

"Lord Apollo" Sally knelt

"No need for that this is a party isn't it. Well it was a pleasure meeting you I shall leave now"

Apollo flashed me a knowing glanced and walked off to some of the hunters clearly to annoy Artemis. Sally looked at me with a sceptical look etched across her face.

"Uncle P, really"

"Well, I didn't choose it Apollo sort of started using it and it stuck so now most of the call me that it's rather annoying"

Sally just looked at me and started laughing

"What it's not my fault?"

That just caused her to laugh harder Zeus was stood nearby and looked at us I shrugged and my expression must have been funny as Zeus started laughing as he came over to us

"Your expression" he managed to stumble out threw laughing once they had both calmed down I managed to introduce Sally to Zeus

"Brother this is Sally Jackson"

Sally knelt "Lord Zeus"

"so this is Sally well I must say it's been nice meeting you" with that he walked off

"Well that was abrupt and I must say I do prefer you Poseidon"

That caused me to grin goofily and Sally just smiled back we made our way over to a bench in a corner of the room where we just sat and talked, being with her made me feel better, more energised but the truth hung over me like the sword of Damocles, and I couldn't think of a way to solve it. I could feel the energy draining out of me again luckily just at that moment Hestia came over to see us and sat down next to me giving me some of her energy to prevent me from collapsing. Sally wasn't stupid she could see that I was suffering and gave me a look of pure worry and concern

"Poseidon what's wrong"

"Nothing I'm completely fine" I lied trying to sound convincing but my voice was etched with pain

"It's clear that you're not fine please tell me"

"Brother you should tell her" Hestia said

I really didn't want to have to tell Sally I didn't know what her reaction would be and I didn't want her to leave. I stood up pain searing through my body as I did so, I offered Sally my hand and she took it, we walked outside and walked silently through the gardens, it wasn't awkward but thoughtful. We reached the lake that was up on Olympus, Percy had asked me before how a lake could float in air I really didn't know anyway in the moonlight the lake glistened, the light reflecting off Sally's face making her look even more beautiful that I thought possible.

I looked down at the floor developing a sudden interest in the grass as I felt Sally's gaze drifted from the lake onto me.

"What's wrong Poseidon, I can see that you're in pain and I want to help"

"There's nothing you can do anyway as I won't force you to do the one thing that could"

"Please tell me"

I continued to stare at the floor without realising it a tear rolled down my cheek I hoped that Sally wouldn't see but she did and wiped the tear off my cheek and started comforting me, she didn't press me any further I thought about my situation and how much Sally meant to me, she meant more to me than she should do, more than she'll ever know

I looked into her ever-changing eyes she stared into mine I don't know why I did what I did next. I kissed her, she seemed shocked at first and I was worried that I had gone too far but then she started to kiss me back and my brain melted. When we pulled apart I looked at her the at the floor slightly ashamed of myself

"I love you Sally, always have"

I stared at the floor not daring to look up the current situation was making me weaker I could feel it, I was on the verge of blacking out when Sally replied

"I still love you too Poseidon"

With that rolls of emotion overwhelmed me I looked up feeling a bit of strength returning to me but with the realisation that I could never be with her caused the strength to diminish and I flickered like a hologram

"Poseidon what is wrong I can see that you are suffering"

"Sally I'm fading"

Dun dun dun :P hoped you liked it I shall update soon (my brain is messed up if I dreamed this)
