I DON'T OWE ANYTHING, ALL RIGHTS GO TO RICK RIORDAN

PERCY'S POV

After Annabeth and Aphrodite left I tried to fall asleep again, but Annabeth wasn't besides me to let me play with her hair so I decided to get up and take a shower. Just as I was coming out I saw Chiron galloping towards me.

"Hey Chiron" I said

"Hello Percy" he said "how are you?"

"I'm fine" I said "um, hey, about last night, I'm sorry I didn't tell you that I was going to propose to Annabeth, I know that to her you're a second dad"

"there is no need to worry Percy" Chiron said "though you did surprise the camp"

I smiled sheepishly "I'm full of surprises" I said

"Indeed you are Percy" Chiron agreed

"Still I'm sorry" I said

"Percy you are nineteen, you can make your own decisions now and your going to be twenty in what? two months?" he asked

I rubbed the back of my head "yeah, pretty much"

"And Annbeth's birthday is this month in the 25th" Chiron reminded me

"You know it bothers me that Annabeth is two months older than I am" I sighed

Chrion laughed "its nature Percy" he said

"Well nature doesn't like me much, and I'm not saying it because a whole bunch of trees and squirrels threw apples and acorns at me" I whined

Chiron raised an eyebrow "nature threw apples and acorns at you" he repeated "how did that happen?"

"Stoll prank gone wrong and I got blamed for it"

"You can never really trust the Stoll's" Chiron said and I nodded my head agreeing

"They are so hard-headed" I said

"Anyway Percy, someone is waiting for you down at the beach" he said

"Thanks Chiron" I said and left to the beach.

When I got to the beach a men with jet black hair, Hawaiian shirt and khaki pants was seated in the sand fishing. I silently cursed myself for being such and idiot, I turned on my heels and started to walk back to camp on my tippy toes.

"Aren't you going to say hi or something?" My dad asked

I sighed, turned back around and said "hi dad what's up?"

"Nothing much" he said "so anything interesting happened in your life yet"

"Nope" He looked at me with a raised eyebrow "you saw it yesterday, I proposed to Annabeth"

He stifled a laughed "I forgot about that" he said "I just came here because I wanted to talk to you about something else but now that you mention it, you should have seen Athena after the Iris message"

"Why am I so stupid?" I asked

"Your not stupid, your just simply low in smartness like me" he said

"Thanks dad that makes me feel way better" I sarcastically said

"Anyways now that you brought it up why didn't you tell Athena?" he asked

"I was going to tell her," I said "but Thalia and Malcolm wouldn't give me time for it"

He laughed "friends betray you?" he asked

"Apparently" I said

"Uh anyways, it took all the gods in Olympus to snap Athena out of her shock" he said

"Oh great, I broke her" I sighed

"She said that she wanted to talk to you" he said "and I want to talk to Annabeth, she mentioned something for my underwater palace"

I groaned "Great Annabeth's in heaven and I'm in Hades"

My dad laughed again "don't worry" he said

"Easy for you to say" I grumbled "Athena isn't trying to kill you"

"Don't worry about it too much" he said "now what I wanted to talk to you about is that, how come you got locked out of the cabin?"

I groaned "Annabeth and I had a race to see who got there first, I got there first and slammed against the wall"

"You crashed onto the wall?"

I nodded my head "anyways, Annabeth went in and lock me out"

"How'd you get in?" he asked

"I asked Leo to make a roof door" I said "so I made a stair out of water and climb in, but I ended falling in"

"You have a weird way of doing things" he said

"I know" I agreed

"Well, Percy I have to go, I'll talk to you later" then he disappeared.

I AM DEAD! I screamed in my head
