Author's Note- Hi guys. I'm going to be writing another story. I think it will be called 'Mid-Century Romance' or something like that. I hope you like this chapter.
Disclaimer-I don't own anything but the story.
Chapter 21
Annabeth's POV
We were having a party to celebrate Piper and Jason's engagement. We never got to have the party because decorated for Katie's birthday. It was being held and Percy and my house. We were busy setting up for the party. Everyone else came over to help us.
We finished at around 7:00, which was good. The party was going to start at 7:30. The doorbell rang. I ran to open it. In the doorway was Piper and Jason, holding hands.
"Hi!" I said.
"What? You guys planned this for us?" Piper asked.
"Yep." I told her.
They walked in and smiled. We danced and partied all night. Then a slow song came on. All the couple began dancing. I was still pregnant, so I was not very graceful. Anyway, Percy took my hand and put his other hand around my waist. We danced. Soon everyone stopped just to watch us.
After the dance, I felt extremely tired. I sat down in a chair and watched Piper and Jason. They danced gracefully on the floor. Percy sat next to me, holding my hand.
Oh no. I felt water. My water broke.
"Percy!"
"Yeah?"
"My water broke."
"Oh boy, let's go."
We ran out the door and to the car. Percy drove to the nearest hospital. I saw everyone follow in their cars.
The hospital wasn't far. We got there in 15 min. Thank goodness. When the doctors saw I was pregnant and my pants were wet, they took me to the nearest room.
The first thing I felt, excruciating pain. I screamed. Percy cam win a little while afterwards. He held my hand and said soothing words.
"Annabeth, everything will be okay. I'm right here."
The doctor told me to push a few times. I was still in excruciating pain. I was basically screaming my head off. I'm pretty sure everyone in the waiting would be worried.
After a long 6 hours of pain, they were finally born. First came my baby girl. Then the boy. The doctors took them, cleaned them and swaddled them. Then handed our precious little children to Percy and I. I held the girl. Percy had the boy. The doctor came in with two certificates.
"Mr. and Mrs. Jackson. What would you like to name them."
"Hailey Sophia Jackson." I said. I loved that name.
"Nicholas Charles Jackson." Percy said.
The doctor wrote it down and handed it to us. We stayed in the hospital for a little while so I could recover. Then after 2 days, we went home.
It was about 8:00 at night, when we got home. Percy and I sat down in the couch and cradled Hailey and Nicholas, or for short, Hales and Nicky. We walked to the nursery we had prepared with them in our arms. We laid Hales and Nicky in the cribs and sang a soft lullaby. Which happened to be our favorite song.
Wise men say
only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes,
Some things were meant to be
Take my hand
My whole life too
Cause I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes,
Some things were meant to be
Take my hand
My whole life too
Cause I can't help falling in love with you
Cause I can't help falling in love with you
But I can't help
Falling in love with you
After singing, I thought about how music brought me and my one true love together. And how marriage brought joy to my life. I walked back to the bedroom. Then turned to my children.
"Goodnight, my loves." I said.
I ran to the bedroom and fell asleep in my husband's arms.
"Goodnight, Percy." I kissed him.
"Goodnight, Annabeth." He said. Then kissed back.
"Love you."
"Love you too."
My life was perfect. I had a fun and loving husband. And two little wonderful children. I loved them. We were a family, and we would always be happy.
Author's Note- Hi people. Anyway I've decided that this is my last chapter. I know most of you will be like, "No! You can't do this! The story's just beginning." That's why I'm letting any of my reviewer would can put something on may continue this story. I love you all! I'll be writing another one so maybe I'll see you again.
(P.S. I'm sorry if you like Bethany Silena or Alexander Lucas. My BFF Kristina picked Hailey Sophia. I got more votes for Nicholas Charles.)
