Percy POV
I was crying over Zoe's death when Artemis came over. "What do you want?" I asked her.
"Would you think that Zoe would be your friend if she was alive?" Artemis asked me.
"She might not treat me as her friend, but I certainly would think of her as my friend." I replied to her through sobs.
"You know it's not your fault that she died." Artemis said to me.
"Yes it is, if I could have been faster and I could have defeated Atlas this wouldn't have happened." I said back to her.
Then she brought me in for a hug and said, "No one blames you, Atlas is a Titan."
"It doesn't matter it is still my fault." I cried out.
"Maybe this will cheer you up, the last words that Zoe said was, tell Percy that he is a man and that he has gained my trust, if I were still alive he would definitely be my friend." She said to me.
I smiled and fell asleep in her embrace, the next time I opened my eyes was on the moon chariot. "What am I doing on the moon chariot?" I asked Artemis.
"You wouldn't let go of me after you fell asleep, and I still have to do my duties so I brought you up here with me." She told me without looking down.
I blushed and said, "Sorry."
"It's fine, and I have to tell you something." She told me.
"What is it?" I asked her.
"It's, um, I realized that when I was hugging you that I loved you." She told me.
"Oh." I said while blushing.
"It's okay if you don't want to return those feelings." She said to me.
"No, no, I like you too." I told her.
She smiled and brought me in for a kiss. The kiss felt like I died and went to heaven, after a few minutes we pulled apart gasping for air. She then put the chariot on auto pilot and flashed us to my cabin. We walked inside and I laid down on the bed, Artemis sat on the edge of my bed. "Come on lay down with me." I said.
She slowly slipped into the covers. Then I put my arms around her and we fell asleep in each others embrace. I woke up to see Grover staring at us with his mouth open wide. I got out of bed and walked over to him and whispered in his ear. "Not a word."
He nodded. Then I told him to get out and I walked over to Artemis, "Hey Arty, we have to get up." I said.
She rubbed her eyes and said, "That satyr knows about us."
"Yes, I told him to keep quiet about it." I told her.
"My hunters are staying at camp half-blood for a bit." She said to me.
"Well I have one week before I have to go to school." I said to her.
She smiled and said, "We should tell the camp about us."
"Fine." I said to her.
Then we walked outside of my cabin. I walked over to Chiron and told him about Artemis and me. He raised his eyebrow but said nothing. I then walked to my table, and saw Annabeth waiting there for me. I asked her what she wanted and she said, "I wanted to talk to you."
I told her to ask away. "I just want to let you know that I don't love you, and I am dating Connor." She said to me harshly.
I said, "Okay, I don't love you anyway."
She then said, "Then who do you like?"
I said, "Artemis."
"Good luck with that." She sneered at me.
I walked over to the Artemis tabled pulled her standing and kissed her in front of everyone. Everyone was staring at us with their mouths gaping. I smirked and said, "Those of you who know me, I am Perseus Jackson, boyfriend of Artemis, slayer of the Minotaur, holder of the sky, and slayer of the Hyra.
After the Giant War
I came to Olympus to recieve my rewards Zeus said, "I will make this offer once again, Perseus Jackson will you become the 13th Olympian?"
I answered to him, "I will only do it if you make Jason, Travis, Nico, Thalia, Hazel, Frank, Piper, and Leo immortal."
"Fine, I will do your request." He said to me.
He then snapped his fingers. "It is done." He said.
Then the fates came in and said, "All hail Perseus Jackson god of the Universe, Void, Order, Time, Earth, and Heroes."
The fates then said, "You cannot fade and are not tied to any ancient laws, also anyone who has your blessing cannot fade either."
I smiled and said, " Everyone in this room has my blessing except for Annabeth and Connor."
I then shouted, "I am Perseus Jackson, Theseus, and Orion, achiever of the isles of bless, slayer of the Minotaur, killer of the Hydra, bane of Gaea, destroyer of Kronos, hero of Olympus twice, god of the Universe, Void, Order, Time, and Earth, the 13th Olympian, and most importantly the LOVER OF ATHENA AND ARTEMIS."
