Harry's Pov
The day had finally come it was the Yule Ball. this year I was going with Ginny which rin isn't too happy about but whatever. classes today weren't bad at all but they just felt like forever. Everyone was waiting for the day to be done.
We walked into the great hall. It was beautiful, everyone was wearing such nice clothes which were strange since I was used to seeing everyone in their uniforms. Ron had decided to grow a pair of balls and asked Hermione to the ball. She said yes.
About 30 minutes had passed and the door to the great hall opened. It was a blonde girl who opened the door. At first, I had no clue who it was but then I realized to was Annabeth Percy's girlfriend.
"Seaweed Brain." she shouted as she ran towards Percy.
"Wise girl, I thought you couldn't make it," Percy responded as he was judo-flipped by Annabeth.
Everyone in the great hall was very confused. A lot of the girls were squealing at how cute this was but a lot of them were disappointed that Percy's girlfriend actually existed. Percy introduced her to all of the other professors they were talking to Dumbledore for quite a bit though. I wonder what they were talking about. After they finished that they came over to me.
"Hey Harry, this is Annabeth." Percy said, "Annabeth this is Percy."
"Hi, Harry I've heard a lot about you." Annabeth said "the architecture here is really nice. Do you know anything about it?"
"Hi Annabeth I don't know much about the architecture here but I do know someone that does. Her name is Hermione Granger." I responded.
"Really that would be great," she said we started to walk over to Ron and Hermione.
"Hi, Hermione this is Annabeth Professor Jacksons girl. She really wants to know more about the castle so I brought her over here to you." I said.
"Hi I'm Annabeth," she said.
They started talking about all sorts of things. I wasn't really listening I was talking to Ron. After about 5 minutes Percy said he was going to go get something and that he would be right backs.
Percy's Pov.
I couldn't believe it, Annabeth was here. I really didn't think that she was going to come. Well, know I have to follow through with my original plan. Propose, but this was a little harder because I needed to get back to my room and get the wedding ring. After I had introduced her to all of the other professors I brought her over to harry. Harry brought her over to Hermione which gave me time to go get the ring.
I got to my room and I found it on my bedside table. I opened the box to make sure that it was there. And it was, it was beautiful a diamond in the middle with a little outlining of green and grey. It was perfect. Now just time to go back there and propose.
I got back and headed over to Annabeth.
"Hey im back, so how was talking to Hermione?" I asked.
"Oh it was great, you know she really could be a child of Athena." Annabeth said, "She knows so much about the castle and its history."
"Yea trusts me, I know. She literally knows almost everything." I said "she was also the girl that I caught looking up information on me. But its all fine I cleared everything up with Harry and he took care of it. Now Annabeth may I have a dance."
"Oo, but try not to trip and step on my feet like you did what 5 years ago." She said.
"Really Annabeth I was like 13," I said.
"Oh I'm just joking with you, of course, I'll dance with you," she said.
We danced for quite a while. I was surprised I really wasn't as bad as I thought I was going to be. Everything was going right. Annabeth was having a great time. The Yule ball was going to be over soon so I thought I better do it know.
"Annabeth Chase, I know you already said yes but I believe you deserve a proper proposal. Wise Girl will you stay by my side forever no matter what prophecy or monster that comes out to get us. Will, you Annabeth Chase marry me?" I said as I got on one knee.
"Percy, of course, I'll marry you," she said as she hugged me.
I put the ring on her finger as she said "I love it Seaweed Brain." all the girls were squealing there was a loud cheer coming from the crowd watching us. We danced for the rest of the ball which wasn't that much longer. Then we went back to my room.
"So Annabeth how long are you staying?" I asked.
"I'm leaving tomorrow," she replied.
"What are you kidding me. Why can't you stay for longer?" I said.
"Because Percy i have a lot of work to do with redesigning a lot of stuff back at camp and for the gods." Annabeth replied.
"But that can wait. You should stay a while exploring the castle there is so much to do here." I said with puppy dog eyes.
"Percy that is not going to work today so let's just make the most out of the time we have together," Annabeth said.
So we walked around the castle for a while. Annabeth was always commenting on all of the architecture and how amazing it all was. When I finally had enough of hearing about the castle I brought her outside to sit by the lake. We laid down on the grass.
"Bob says hello," I said while looking up at the stars.
"Yeah, Bob says hello," Annabeth said.
We lay in silence for a bit. Then we talked about all the old times. We talked about all the quest we have had to go on. It was great, it had been a long time since we had had time to just talk. Since I had been sent off here to teach not long after the war.
After a while, we realized it was getting pretty late and we went back up to my room. When we got there we were both so exhausted that I slept the moment my head it the pillow.
Im sorry this chapter is short i didnt want to get inot what happens in the next chapters because then i would get too long and i dont want this to get postponed any later. I probably wont get a chapter out next week because im going on vacation but who knows.
