Annabeth's Perspective

I jogged to the Aphrodite cabin to see what Piper wanted to talk to me about. I was super excited about the picnic that me and Percy were going to have. Everything had to be perfect. When I got to the Aphrodite cabin, I peeked inside and saw Piper sitting on her bed. I walked towards her.

"Hey Piper," I said. "Percy said that you wanted to talk to me." Piper frowned.

"Did he?" she asked. I nodded. "But I was never looking for you."

"Oh," I shrugged. "Anyways, I have good news!" I explained to her everything that happened, but I didn't know that the whole cabin was listening.

"Really?" Lily, one of the Aphrodite girls, asked. I nodded.

"Well then we need to get everything ready!" she yelled. "Susan let the Demeter cabin know that we are going to need some flowers." The girl nodded. She then pointed to a group of girls. " You guys get the whole picnic set up by the beach." They all nodded. She then looked at me and smiled. "We'll make sure that everything is perfect."

"Umm…thanks?" I answered.

"You could also use some help yourself," she spoke. I looked at Piper.

"Sorry," she mumbled. I looked back at Lily.

"Umm.. okay sure," I answered. She walked towards her closet and got out a beautiful green tank top and shorts. She tossed them to me.

"Go change into those and then we will do something with your hair." I nodded and walked into the washroom and changed into the clothes as fast as I could. I looked into the mirror. The clothes that Lily had picked actually looked pretty good. I got out of the bathroom. Lily nodded.

"The clothes look good on you," she said. "Now it's time to fix your hair."

She pointed at a chair by a mirror. I sat down. Lily walked towards me and got my hair out of its pony tail. She tried to brush my hair as best as she could so she could make it look better. She then got her makeup bag.

"I'd appreciate it if you didn't put any makeup on me," I said. She rolled her eyes.

"Come on Annabeth! This is like your first date after the war! Please?" she asked. I sighed.

"Fine, but not too much," I answered. She nodded and got to work. I wondered what Percy was doing right now. I couldn't believe it. Lily was right. This will be our first date after the giant war. I hadn't really thought about it but me and Percy have been dating for two years. It didn't seem that long.

"Okay I'm done," Lily spoke. I looked at myself in the mirror. She had put some lipstick and a light green eye shadow on me. It actually looked pretty good.

"Thanks," I said to Lily. She smiled.

"Anytime!" she answered. "Now come on! Let's go see how the girls have set up the picnic!" She got out of the cabin with me and Piper following her out of the cabin. She took us to the part of the beach where a bunch of girls were standing by.

"You guys done?" Lily yelled. They all nodded. We walked towards them and they all made some path for us to walk through. I gasped when I saw all the work they had done. They had made a heart out of roses and in the middle was a picnic basket.

" Thank you so much!" I said. They all smiled.

"No problem. Now we should all go. It's almost 12pm!" Lily yelled. They all started to run back to their cabin.

"See you later Annabeth," Piper said and started to jog back to her cabin. I sat right beside the picnic basket. Percy wasn't here yet, but I didn't really expect him to be on time either.

1 hour later…

It's now 1 pm and Percy isn't here yet! I looked around. No sign of him. I put my head down. He had probably forgotten about our first date after the giant war. I had to face it. He wasn't coming. I covered my face with my hands and cried myself to sleep.

Hope you guys enjoy this chapter. I also wanted to thanks all those people who sent me reviews. Thank you so much!
