Surprise
Annabeth's POV
I walked around the forest thinking about what I was about to do. Last night Artemis announced that we were going to visit camp. At first I was so exited I nearly jumped off my seat. But then I remembered the last time I was there. It's been 2 years. It seemed like it was millions of years ago.
I was happy about seeing Grover, Chiron, all the campers, even him. I shook my head and kept on walking. These past two years have been nothing but hell. It wasn't the moving around or finding food. It was my anxiety. Every single all I could think of was him. I sighed. My heart felt as if it had been shattered. I never thought that I would ever feel this way. It was revolting.
" Annabeth!" I turned around and found a very out of breath Thalia. " Um are you alright?", I asked.
"No! I had to come and chase you over here! Why in the name of Hades' socks are you in here all alone?"
" I was just walking around, you know getting my thoughts straight."
She looked at me for a second and then she understood. She nodded and walked off. " By the way we are leaving!", she called out. It was time. Time for me to choose: staying as a huntress or go back to camp. I sighed. Maybe I'll make my mind up on the way.
On the way there I noticed lots of things. The place we were running by was amazing. A beautiful lake with a waterfall, huge trees, and little animals. It was like living in a fairytale. The wind past by my face stroking my jaw, cheekbone, eyelids, my whole face. I smiled happily and thought about my old adventures with Thalia and Luke.
I was too caught up in my thoughts that I didn't noticed we were already at camp. It looked completely the same as it did two years ago. Strawberry fields, Big house, Archery, cabins, thee lake. I sighed happily as I entered my old home.
Artemis and Thalia went to the Big House to announce our visit. While the huntresses settled in the Artemis cabin I decided to look around. I found satyrs in the strawberry fields playing soothing music, nymphs chasing satyrs. I laughed. Some things never did change.
The cabins were all in a U shape as always. Campers ran around laughing and having fun. Some Aphrodite girls sat on their cabin steps painting their nails. Typical. Demeter kids grew plants around their cabin windows, and the Apollo campers sang beautiful music. I felt so much peace in my heart. Everything was it should be. My beautiful home was fine all these years. I grinned for the first time in years. Watching this scene made all my worries go away. As if everything I was worrying about was just really dumb.
I walked past the sword arena and stopped. It was him. Percy. I finally allowed myself to think his name. He looked the same. Jet black hair. Sea green eyes. Happy. He was fighting a dummy and everything he hit it he would grin to himself. Typical seaweed brain.
" Percy!", yelled a voice. I recognized that voice well. "Hey", he said. She came closer to him and wrapped her arms around him. I felt a pang of jealousy. I was shocked at myself. I was not one to be jealous. Then, she came closer to him and kissed him. The worst part of all was that he kissed her back. I felt a pain in my heart. This paint was worse compared to the one I felt before. I felt tears run down my cheeks. I couldn't believe he kissed her. I just couldn't believe Percy kissed Rachel.
