Annabeth sighed. This was NOT what she though her job would be like.

She thought she'd be an awesome architect, not work in a stuffy old building all day. Not to mention the fact that her fiancé, Percy, had to go on a quest that she couldn't come along for. So yeah, for a Monday morning? This was an awful one.

Elevator buttons in morning air

Annabeth sighs and stops at the elevator door. She presses the button and waits for it to come down. Tapping her foot impatiently she considers taking the stairs. Simpler, and that would mean she didn't have to cram into an elevator with a bunch of strangers who are staring into space.

Strangers silence makes me wanna take the stairs

She steps in the elevator, and sighs again, looking down at the beautiful ring that encircled her finger. She wished Percy were here. He could make anything funny, no matter what it was.

If you were here we'd laugh about their vacant stares

But right now, my time is theirs

She thought about her mother when the news was announced. Athena had looked like someone had just announced Annabeth's IQ was 50. So disappointed.

Seems like there always someone who disaproves

They'll judge it like they know about me and you.

And the verdict comes from those with nothing else to do

The jurys out, but my choice is you.

She knew what Percy would say if she mentioned it. He would tell her not to let it bother her. But she wanted so badly to impress her mother that it was hard to forget the disappointed look on her mothers face.

So don't you worry your pretty little mind

People throw rocks at things that shine

And life makes love look hard

The stakes are high, the waters rough,

But this love is ours

The demigod heads to her desk, and much to her horror, finds a half eaten rotten apple, sitting on her desk. She picks it up with a disgusted look.

You never know what people have up their sleeves.

Wrinkling her nose, she walks up to the garbage can across the room. Throwing away the apple, she finds herself confronted face to face with another demigod who worked here.

Lyssa had liked Percy. When Percy proposed to Annabeth, Lyssa's world had shattered, and she now tried to make life miserable for Annabeth.

"So you were just going to throw it away there, and let it stink up the whole office?"

"Of you want it to go somewhere different," Says Annabeth, "You dig through the trash."

Ghosts from your past gonna jump out at me.

Lurking in the shadows with their lip-gloss smiles

But I don't care; cause right now your mine.

And you'll say don't t\you worry your pretty little mind,

People throw rocks at things that shine,

And life makes love look hard

The stakes are high, the waters rough,

But this love is ours.

Annabeth glares at her watch one final time. Relieved and excited she finds its time to meet Percy.

And it's not theirs to speculate if it's wrong

And your hands are tough but they are where

Mine belong in

I'll fight their doubt and give you faith, with this song for you.

She grins as she recalls the little details of him.

Cause I love the gap between your teeth

And I love the riddles that you speak

And any snide remarks from my father about your tattoo will be ignored

Cause my heart is yours

And I'll say,

Don't you worry your pretty little mind

People throw rocks at things that shine

And they can't take what's ours

They can't take what's ours

The stakes are high, the waters rough,

But this love is ours

Arriving at camp half blood she throws her arms around Percy's neck and whispers in his ear, "I missed you Seaweed Brain."
