A/N Hey guys! Sorry for the delayed post. I've been super busy, and I went on vacation. I am starting to establish a more scheduled update. Anyways, Happy very belated Thanksgiving!

Also, Happy holidays!

And thanks to the people who have favorited/followed my story, it really means a lot to me.

Annabeth's POV

Oh my gods, oh my gods, oh my gods, what the hell did I just do? I think as I crumple onto the couch, fatigued from sobbing so hard.

What just happened

Everything happened so fast, I don't remember most of it.

All I remember is being a short-tempered bitch to Percy, and then telling him to leave.

I don't have any words to express how bad I feel. I pulled some harsh cards back there, and I really shouldn't have. He doesn't deserve this... he doesn't deserve me.

Percy is one of the most... how should I sum this up... kind person you'll ever meet, for lack of better words. He's kind, generous, funny, thoughtful, respectful, and basically any other positive trait, trust me, the list goes on. From a mortal's point of view, he looks like a happy-go-luck who can sometimes have a mischievous glint in his eye. To demigods, he's everyone's idol, and with a carefree personality, everyone wants to be around him, especially the monsters! And once you get to know him, he'll risk his life for, trust me, I know. But demigod or not, he's the same person. On the outside he may look tough, but once you talk to him, you'll feel the happiness he projects. However, at home he's a whole different person. At home, his guard is completely down, he's very gentle and more of a calmer version of himself. Sure he still cracks really bad jokes, but her also likes to get cozy and watch movies; that's something that most people don't know.

If you knew Percy only from the way he acts at home, you'd think he'd never dare to hurt a fly. He's very gentle, as I mentioned earlier, but also respectful. I don't really know how to put this to words, but, he just really respects me, as his girlfriend, and as a woman. For example, he always asks me if he can get ice-cream if we are walking near by an ice-cream parlor. He can get one himself just fine, but he gets my approval anyways. And I would always get a say in decisions. He just loved me so much, and I loved him too. At home, he would always sneak up behind me and hug me from behind, it felt really good. His hugs are the best. Absolutely heaven.

And, I'm losing it all. The lopsided grin, the bad jokes, the hugs & kisses, everything. All because of a bad day, a frickin' bad day; now my bad day has taken a sharp turn to tartarus.

I can't believe it. Most people who knew us well would say our relationship is one of the strongest they knew, even if we weren't the most affection-showing couple they knew. Yet, here we are, broken up.

I honestly thought I was going to be with Percy for the rest of my life. I thought we were gonna get married and have kids, and raise them. But I guess not. Not anymore.

I don't know what to do with my life right now.

I'm on the sofa, curled up, trying to think about what to do with life. My body aches from crying and my migraine just won't go away. Fresh tears stain my cheeks from the memories of Percy and I. Everything in this place triggers a memory. I'm gonna have to do something about that. My heart just can't take it. Right now, my heart feels like it's just gonna give up, there's no point in keeping this body running.

I'm half asleep on the couch when I realize something, well more like remember. I'M PREGNANT! This may seem like a "no duh" situation, but it never occurred to me what to do now. Obviously, I assumed that Percy and I were gonna take care of our child together, but since Percy's not here... what am I going to do. I mean, I'm financially stable, that's not an issue. It's just that I don't have enough time to raise a child.

What am I going to do with my baby?

Percy POV

The sound of the door slamming shut mixed with the cool December air is what snaps me back to reality.

I can't believe it, I can't believe it, I can't believe it!

What was I thinking back there.

Annabeth, my love my life, my everything, poof, gone.

Shit, what am I gonna do? Now, don't go about making assumptions about me. I usually don't swear, even inside my head. But this is different; it's either this(swearing) or crumpling up into a ball and sobbing over my loss. Frankly, I'd rather do the latter, but I am in no place for that. Once I get to an empty house/room- preferably soundproof- will I unleash the ball of emotions that I have struggled to keep inside.

I decide that I am going to go to Mom's house, because it's a safe place, and has good memories. Plus, it'll be empty because she and Paul are on vacation in Colorado for the week.

As I walk to their place, I think about how much I'm really losing. (I know, it's a real bad idea, but I can't think of anything else) I'm losing my sweet, loving, smart, stubborn girlfriend. She is amazing and pretty badass too. Not only is she the CEO of one of the biggest corporations in the world, but she's only 22! I honestly have no words to describe her. She's flawless. She manages her stuff with work, even if it's very stressful. Yet, she also makes a lot of time for me. Because, if you don't already know, I'm pretty high maintenance. Unlike her, I have no control of my stress or feelings; so I just spill them onto her, and she's a very good listener too. She always listens and gives me good advise. She doesn't deserve me though, nobody deserves her. I still can't believe that I was the one she chose. I guess the break-up was inevitable.

As I unlock the door to Mom's house, I think I'm gonna burst. I've always had trouble keeping my feelings in check, and it's really hard to keep them under control when they're raging like this. I make a beeline for the couch and just pop my balloon of feelings that has been growing faster than ever.

-30 minutes later-

I'm finally done crying, there are no more tears left to cry. I silently sob tearlessly as I grieve for my loss. Is it even worth living? What's there to gain anyways? Annabeth was literally your life, what are you now? Thoughts like these roll through my head as I finish my sob session.

Everything from earlier today seem like a haze to me. I just remember that I was cooking Annabeth's favorite dinner, enchiladas, when she lashed out on me. I was very confused; but more importantly, I didn't get a chance to tell her my big news. I got promoted! I got promoted to CEO of Marine Aquariums! and she doesn't even know...

What am I gonna do. What should I do with my life? I suppose I should get a fresh start, somewhere far from here. Wait, what did people say at the meeting, something about a new aquarium opening up in Australia... Oh! That's it! There was a new branch opening in up in Australia in a few months. That's perfect, a fresh start. All I need to do is get everything set, then I'll be good to go.

Thanks to the sudden break-up, I don't have much stuff, not that I'd need it, fresh start, remember? But, I can't leave without informing people like Mom, Paul, Thalia, Nico, and Grover. (A/N Thalia, Nico and Percy got really close after the war, they are almost like siblings) So, I'll need to inform them on my current situation. Also, I need to leave my share of the monthly rent for the apartment, because I'm supposed to pay half and Annabeth is supposed to pay half; not that it matters though. She makes quite a lot of money being at such a high position, the money is more symbolic, that we're leaving on a neutral note.

So that's the plan, I'm going to Australia.

A/N So odds are that I'm going to update again late this month. As winter break is near, I'll have more time. For more exact detail, go to my profile.

Thanks for reading! Please review.
