/okay! Never mind! I got this chapter finished today! So ill go ahead and show you! REVIEW I TAKE CRITISISM!/

I was steaming mad when the ambulance and the police cars came. Luke had HURT Annabeth.

We all voted and I rode in the ambulance with her on the way to the hospital. She didnt wake up the entire time. And that brings uus to right now. Im pacing in a hospital waiting room, Nico is trying to settle Thalia. Grover had to go home an hour ago.

An hour and a half after she was taken into the examaning room, a tall reheaded nurse came out and walked to us. Since Nico and Thalia were preoccupied she went straight to me.

"You are waiting on... Annabeth Chase correct?" She said looking at her clip board

"Yes, is she okay?" I ask stopping in my tracks.

"She has 2 cracked ribs, and a concussion. The ribs are close to some vital organs. She will need surgery. We will take her there in 5 minutes." The nurse says smiling sympathetically at me, "You can go see her if you want." She said going back through the door. I walked to her room while the nurse explained everything to Nico and Thalia.

When I walked into that room, seeing Annabeth with machines all around her. I silently cried, how could I let this happen? Why didnt I notice the bruises, the jagged cuts on her arms? Its my fault.

Then I did something I will never forget.

I kissed her, I kissed my best freind.

Then the strange part happened. SHE KISSED BACK.

I felt her arms go around my neck as she kissed me back.

"Ehhem?" I here behind me, I jump away from Annabeth and see Nico standing in the doorway.

"Its not what it looks like, I swear." Im saying when Thalia walks in.

"What happened?" She asked Nico giving him a "whatdidyoudo." Glare.

"Oh, nothing just finally caught some PDA from Percabeth." He says putting an arm around her waist and pulling her closer.

"Percabeth?" I say giving him a look,

"Just a little couple name Thals came up with."

"OMG are you guys together?" Thalia sqealed, and let me tell you Thalia doesnt squeal.

"No, i guess, i dont know..." i fumble with my words.

"Its okay man we will leave you to... that." Nico says spinning around and walking out.

"Um, WAIT! HEY IM COMING TO!" I yell down the hall. Right as I start to walk away a pale hand shoots out from the bed and grabs my arm.

"Stay." Annabeth whispers to me, crap. I cant leave her right now. Not before she goes to surgery.

"Okay, Wise Girl." She smiles weakly at her old her old nick name. "Now get some sleep." I say pushing her hair out of her face.

"Okay, I love you Seaweed Brain." Then shes asleep. WAIT, did she just say she loves me?

I dont let go of her hand untill they take her into the OR. Then I sit and think.
