Annabeth POV
When everyone was gone, we went into Percy's room and sat on the bed. I said that if we were going to get married, maybe we should get a place of our own. Percy agreed that it was time for us to find a place. Since tomorrow would be all about getting dresses and suits, we decided the day after would be us apartment hunting. I went back into my room and got into my pajamas, and Percy came in and invited me into his room. I went in and was slightly curled up on my side, when Percy laid behind me, imitating my position.
We woke up the next morning to a knock on our door. Sally opened the door, and turned away when she saw that we were spooning. "Sorry guys, didn't mean to interrupt. Your friends are here." I got up and kissed his forehead before going to my room to get dressed. I saw Percy downstairs wearing a blue T-shirt that was stretched tight across his muscles. Percy saw me looking and just laughed. He always catches me looking. We all agreed to meet up at a pizza place for lunch at noon. We agreed that a deep aqua would be the bridesmaid dress and tie color. All the couples did a quick kiss goodbye before going to Grover or Thalia's cars. Percy held me by my arms and kissed me on the forehead. "Seeya later, beautiful." I just smiled and looked up at him. We didn't realize the other couples were watching us, and we looked over to see Nico tapping his watch. The guys drove away and Sally ran out to tell us she had a wedding dress that she'd let me have.
We went upstairs, and I tried it on. It was sleeveless and floor length, with not much pouf, and some beaded details around the top. The veil was very simple, just a veil. Thalia had the idea of replacing the white beads with aqua ones. I loved it. Right when I was about to take it off, my mom appeared. She told me she loved the dress, and would be attending the wedding. She gave me a hug goodbye and left. We went out to get the bridesmaid dresses.
I decided to have Juniper as my maid of honor. I couldn't decide between Juniper and Thalia, but since Grover was obviously going to be the best man, Juniper and Grover should walk up together. Thalia would be my only other bridesmaid, as Nico was the only other usher. Percy and I agreed to keep the wedding small. We didn't have much money, and when we were driving to the store, we passed a yard sale. Just for fun, we were looking, and we saw they had 2 light blue dresses, both exactly what we were looking for. The dresses were really inexpensive, so we figured we could just dye them. We went home and had fun dyeing the dresses and beading them, we didn't realize it was already noon!
We rushed out to the pizza place, and I called Percy warning him that we'd be late. Luckily, since it was Percy we were dealing with, we heard him saying, "guys, it's noon!", and Grover in the background saying, "oh shit". When we arrived, we told them about our luck with the dresses in only spending $20 on dresses, and $6 on dye and beads. They said they hadn't even found suits yet. Since we were finished, we offered to go with them. We called Sally and asked if Paul had any white dress shirts he could loan us. She said Paul had 1, and Nico said he had one at home. Grover, being the sharp dressed satyr he is, already had a plain black suit. Of course, Percy and Nico did not. I helped Percy, and Thalia helped Nico. I have to admit, Percy looks really hot in a suit. He noticed that I was staring at him, and he picked me up like we were walking through the threshold, I just laughed and kissed him on the cheek. We found ties and handkerchiefs and went home. After everyone was gone, Percy and I went to sleep, exhausted from the long day.
