When I woke up everything was blurry. I looked around and realized I was in the big house. Chiron was in there.
"Annabeth," He cried, "You're up! I had to force Percy to go back to his regular activities! Why he didn't…."
I cut him off there. "What are you talking about? How long was I out?"
He looked a bit uncomfortable, "Around a week," He finally said, sounding a bit worried.
"WHAT?" I yelped, "A WEEK?"
Then I paused. Percy wouldn't leave this place? "Why?" I asked.
"Well Mr. D said it might be head damage but…."
"Not that! Why wouldn't Percy leave?"
"Well, I guess because he wanted to make sure you were O.k."
At the exact same moment Chiron finished Percy came in.
"Do you know when she'll..." Then he realized I was sitting straight up looking confused and tired.
"YOU'RE UP! IT'S ABOUT TIME! I woke up a few hours after we got here."
"Err…" I said as he hugged me.
"Sorry…"
"Hey," I said trying to make things more comfortable, "What happened to our Milkshakes?"
"I dunno," He said laughing, "Maybe the Cyclops drank them! Oh yeah, and Thalia's coming back to camp. Too stay.
Then I realized Chiron had left.
"Percy…" I said.
"Um… Well I better get to the climbing wall or Chiron will get mad."
He smiled awkwardly and walked out of the room.
So there I was all alone with words in my mouth completely left unspoken.
