"We shouldn't be doing this." She warned.
I sighed and pulled away. "I know. I wouldn't have gone any further, anyway. Trust me." Then, I had an idea. "But I know what we can do." She looked a little freaked when I said that, and to be honest, if I was her, I'd be too. I continued, unravelling my brilliant master plan. "We could play a prank on the guys, in front of Luke, you know. Teaching him for being a jack-ass."
A sly smiled played across Annabeth's pretty face. "Continue."
"Well. I could pretend to propose to you, and be all lovey-dovey and all that kinda crap. I think it'll be great, and you and I both know that Luke will be seriously pissed. So, ou agree?"
Annabeth pulled her top on and sat up. "You know Seaweed brain, you're actually pretty clever. That is a good idea, as much as I hate to admit it."
I raised my eyebrows. "Hey, I should be called Wise guy, and you can be my beautiful sidekick, Wise girl." Annabeth rolled her eyes and pushed me off the bed. Laughing, I got back up and looked at her curiously. "So. Are we in or what?"
Annabeth nodded. "We're in. Tomorrow, at dinner, you can do it. It'll be perfect."
"Great then. It's a date. Well, not literally. It's actually a fake proposal, but you get me, right?"
She laughed. I get you, Seaweed brain."

Today was the day. Today was the day Annabeth and I were getting Luke back for being, well, Luke I guess. Everyone was sitting round the fire, eating chicken as usual, except the children of Aphrodite, who were sitting there eating vegetables to keep their 'figure fuller'. (To be honest, I wasn't into girls who starved themselves to death.) I looked around for Annabeth and she caught me looking, with a glint of happiness in her eyes. I walked over to her. "Ready for this, Wise girl?"
"I was born ready, Seaweed brain." Was her reply, and with that, I stood up on the table, asking for attention.
When I was sure that everyone was looking, including Luke, I turned to Annabeth. "I have an announcement to make." I exclaimed. I hopped off the table, turning to Annabeth. I'd even gone into town this morning and bought her a ring, perfect for this prank. I got down on one knee, with Annabeth pretending to be surprised. (And she was actually doing a pretty good job.) "Annabeth Chase. I have been in love with you ever since I set eyes on you." Everyone gasped, as I smiled and continued. "I think you're funny, smart, and talented. Oh and the most beautiful woman in the whole wide world. So please, please take my offer when I ask do you, Annabeth Chase take my hand in marriage? Please be my fiancée."
Annabeth laughed and pulled me into a kiss. "Of course I will marry you, Percy! I have loved you too."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! What the hell's going on? I mean, I'm glad that you guys are well, into each other. After all, we all knew that you guys were doing naughty business half the time, but seriously, marriage?" Leo cried.
Grover jogged up to me, putting his hand on my forehead. "Dude. You haven't been drinking that real weird pineapple and banana drink again have you?"
"No!" I said, or well I thought I said anyway. I turned around and there stood Luke, angry as ever. "You cannot marry her!"
I would've kept up the fight if Annabeth hadn't started laughing. Luke glanced over at her, confused. "What's so funny?" He demanded.
"You actually think that we're getting married! I'm sorry, Percy. But I can't keep this up!"
