Hi everyone! This chapter is going to be different than any previous ones, because it is going to be a lot of super mini one shots. I am completely obsessed with headcanons on pinterest, so I noticed there are a bunch of proposal ones, so I am going to make mini one shots out of some of them, so literally none of these ideas belong to me. Some are alternate reality, some are on the world of Demigods. BTW, It's Morgenstern! Drop a review, tell us if you liked it or didn't like it, doesn't matter, we care about your opinion. Also, we are running out of one shot idea's here guys! Send in some more please! Enjoy!
Under The Light of The Moon
Percy:
I walked side by side with Annabeth, grasping her hand. I hope she couldn't feel the sweat on my palms, but I couldn't help it. I was super nervous. And who wouldn't be when they were about to propose? No one.
Annabeth and I had started dating a little over two years ago, which meant that I had been planning this day for a little over two years, seeing as I knew she was it for me the moment I had seen her.
I walked into the first coffee shop I saw, Olympus Coffee Shop, hoping to escape the cold and grab a steaming cup of joe, killing two birds with one stone.
No one was at the counter when I came in, but the dinging of the bell on the door brought a blonde haired woman out from the back of the little shop.
I pulled my gloves off, taking a moment to defrost before ordering. I brushed the snow off of my suit, and flipped my upturned jacket collar down, causing a heap of snow to fall to the floor.
"Hi sir, can I get you something?" the barista asked me, looking up. And I saw her eyes for the first time. The girl, Annabeth according to her name tag, had entrancing stormy grey eyes, the kind you get lost in, and I know I sure did right in that moment.
"Would it be too cliche to say a bit of your time?" I asked, hoping I didn't come off as creepy. I just really wanted to get to know this beautiful girl, work be damned.
Annabeth blushed, looking down quickly, before meeting my gaze again and saying, "Not at all. I would love some company on a day like today."
Oh, I remembered it like it was yesterday. I was never one to believe in love at first sight, but gods, when I met her I ate my words.
She was perfect, honestly, a vision sent down from heaven. She was smart, beautiful, kind, ambitious, determined, loving, I could go on forever. She was just too amazing, and I wasn't sure what I had done to deserve her, or what God looked down from Mount Olympus (Yes I believed in those Gods) and decided that I should walk into that coffee shop, but I sent up thanks to them every single day of my life. Because Annabeth was my life.
I looked over at her now, her face glowing and full of laughter, as it always was, and I couldn't help but smile. I was so unbelievably ready to ask this woman to marry me, and hopefully make her mine.
We stopped by the ocean, gazing out into the water, one of our favorite things to do in the summer, just relax by the ocean, but I couldn't help but look at Annabeth instead.
The moonlight might be reflecting off the ocean right now in a take your breath away way, but Annabeth was always more stunning. If you couldn't tell, I was very in love.
As Annabeth turned to look at me, a smile filling her face, I took a deep breath and dropped to one knee. Then I began.
"Annabeth, when I look into your eyes, I get a peaceful feeling. With you everything seems beautiful. I promise that I will be with you through every moment, and support you through every up and down of your life. You make my life wonderful and worth living, and I love you so much for it. Annabeth Chase, will you marry me?" I said, calmly, trying not to mince my words or mumble.
Annabeth had her hands over her mouth, and there were tears leaking out of her eyes. "I love you too Percy. Of course I will marry you!" She practically shouted in happiness. I grinned, slipping the ring onto her finger before rising to a stand, picking her up on the way, and kissing her, both of our smiles getting in the way in the best way possible.
I was so ready to spend the rest of my life with this amazing woman, and hopefully create a family with her, and I couldn't wait for our adventure to begin.
Catching Apples
Annabeth:
I was sitting in the pavilion, drawing up some sketches for a new cabin for camp, one for children of Nike, the Goddess of Victory. I had been working on it for awhile, glad that I was finally being recognized as an architect.
It also meant that I didn't have much time to eat, or more like I didn't take much time to eat, and now, as I was nearing the end of my planning, I was starving.
"Hey! Percy! Toss me some fruit," I shouted out to my boyfriend, who was standing by the fruit bar. I had sent him over there a few minutes ago, and he still wouldn't pick something, because even at the age of twenty-five, he still had to be forced to eat his fruits and vegetables.
I turned back around, until a second later I felt something coming toward me. I spun and caught the fruit that Percy had thrown to me, and when I saw what fruit it was, I almost had a heart attack.
The rest of the kids in the pavilion at the moment all quieted down, everyone staring at the fruit in my hand.
An apple.
Percy just stood there, looking confused between me and the quiet campers, all still waiting to see what happened next.
"What?" he finally asked everyone still staring at him.
"Uh, Percy? You do realize that throwing an apple to a girl in Ancient Greece was a proposal, right?" I asked him, waiting for him to get that look of horror that came over his face whenever someone suggested something that meant growing up a little.
"I know, do you want the ring too?" he asked, grinning at me. My eyes went super wide, and all the girl's in the growing crowd awwed at us.
Then I was flying across the room, throwing myself into Percy's arms, and crying with joy. "Yes, yes, a gillion times yes!" I told him as he pressed his lips to my own.
"I thought you knew that a gillion isn't a number Wise Girl," he said smiling at me. I playfully hit him, and he mocked pain, because that was just the kind of couple we were, and I loved it. I loved him, more than anyone could possible imagine.
Next thing I knew Percy was slipping a real ring onto my finger, and Piper was shoving her way through the crowd and then throwing herself at me, hugging me and congratulating me.
Jason, Leo, Will, and Nico came up and gave Percy those bro hug things, and lots of other campers came up to congratulate us, and then two girl's shoved their way through the crowd, enveloping me in their embraces.
One of them was Rachel Dare, one of my good friends, and then other was… no way! Thalia was back!
"Oh my Gods, Annabeth! You're engaged! Percy called me in for the proposal, but it was so much more exciting to watch than hear about!" she squealed to me, showing more excitement than I had ever seen her use.
"I know!" I said back, easily matching her enthusiasm level. I couldn't believe that Percy had actually taken the next step. Although, by this point, when all of our friends were married and some had kids, if he hasn't proposed soon, I would have.
Percy had stepped up, and I had said yes. I was engaged. I was engaged to the man I love. And man, did I love it.
This isn't the end, but I have a note to make. First, those were super cheesy, I know, but I loved them, and I wanted to write them for myself, even if none of you liked them. There is still one more, but it is kind of different. It also going to be shorter than the others. So just… be warned.
Shoelaces
Percy:
I walked over to where Annabeth was talking to one of the Aphrodite campers. As I came closer I heard that they were talking about me. I hid behind one of the pillars in the pavilion, hoping to eavesdrop on them.
"Are you guy going to get married?" the young camper asked Annabeth. Annabeth nearly choked on her olives, and I wasn't far behind, making a few spluttering noises before I remembered I was supposed to be hiding.
"Oh my gods no! Well, maybe, but not yet! We're only sixteen!" Annabeth managed to get out around her choking.
And then a plan began to from in my head. Cue the evil villain laugh.
I waited a little longer, until it looked like the young camper was about to leave. Then I walked over to them, standing across from Annabeth. The camper continued leaving, but I noticed that she hovered behind the same pillar I had, probably trying to get some juicy new gossip.
"Hey Percy," Annabeth greeted me, looking at me suspiciously. I lowered myself to one knee, in the same position someone proposing would go down into.
Annabeth's eyes bugged out of her head, and all the campers turned to watch, blatantly staring.
"You better not be proposing Percy Jackson!" Annabeth warned, but her voice was shaky.
Then I tied my shoelaces up.
Annabeth:
When Percy lowered himself to one knee, my eyes popped out of my head, and all thoughts flew out of my mind.
My heart was racing super hard. Was he proposing?
"You better not be proposing Percy Jackson!" I told him sternly, but the desired effect was not there, as my voice came out shaky and uneven.
It was shaky because, what would I even say if he did propose what would I say? No?! Lots of demigods got married early. But we were only sixteen! Oh my gods, was he going to propose?! He was kneeling down!
Then he tied his shoe, trying to cover the laughter bubbling over from his throat. My vision went red. Who in Hades did he think he was, pranking me like that? He sure as hell wasn't someone who wasn't going to be sore in the morning.
"Dude, you better run!" Some random camper called out from the audience, noticing how angry I was.
Percy looked up and at me, and the second he saw my face his smile instantly disappeared, replaced with fear. "Thanks bro!" he called out into the crowd before scrambling to his feet and sprinting off.
I sprinted after him, ready to teach him a lesson. He was super fast, I will give him that, but I was faster, and just as I was pouring on the speed to catch him I noticed where we were running. The ocean. No, no, no! I knew the second he hit the water I would lose him. He would either swim away faster than I could possibly follow, or if I tried going after him, he would be able to control the waves, making it impossible.
I doubled my efforts, determined to catch him before he got to the shoreline, and teach him what he got for doing things like that fake proposal.
Just as I was reaching out to grab him, his foot touched the first inch of water and I was instantly suspended in the air by a giant tendril of water.
On the ground Percy was laughing his head off, no longer scared for his life. "I heard you talking to that girl in the pavilion, and I had to prank you! It as too good to miss! And I know I might be killed for this, but you need to cool off," Percy finished before the tendril started moving.
"Percy! Don't you dare!" I just finished shouting at him before I was being thrown out into the ocean, and covered in water.
Oh that boy has another thing coming to him, I thought as I began the swim back to land.
