Okay, here's chapter 2. I hope you guys like this. My kitty and eleven year old little me from the past were both very pleased with all of the reviews that I got, so I just wanna say thank you to all of those who reviewed chapter 1. And I refuse to give out any hints, to those of you who were asking. Enjoy!
Annabeth POV:
"So, where's Charlie?" I asked when we go to the house.
"He's still at work. You know how busy it can get at the station," Bella said.
"Bella, do you mind if I ask you something?" I had been dying to ask her all the way to the house, but I couldn't think of a way to ask her.
She smiled. "Ask away."
"Why are you wearing an engagment ring?"
Bella froze. "Oh, that. Well, we were going to tell you when Charlie got home."
"We?" What was going on with my cousion?
She sighed. "Edward and I are engaged," she finally said.
"Oh, well I'm happy for you, Bella."
Thanks, Annabeth. Do you think that I could talk to you for a moment? Upstairs?" she asked.
"Sure," I said.
I followed her up to her room. After we both walked into the room, she shut the door, and sighed. "We have to tell Edward. Everything," she said.
"What? Why? Bella, we need to keep the secret. I don't want this to ruin your engament. I mean, Percy doesn't even know, and he's one of us. He doesn't even know anything about you. No one does, excpet our parents." I was shocked. How could she even think of telling him? She'd only known him for two years. Percy didn't even know, and I've known him for six years.
"I have a feeling he'll understand. After all, we've been through worse and werider things together."
"What do you mean?" I asked her.
"I'll see if he's alright with me telling you," she replied.
"Telling me what? What are you keeping from me, Bella?"
"I'll explain later, Annabeth. Right now, I need to talk with Edward."
"Alright. We'll be in the living room when you're ready." I walked back downstairs to go get Edward. When I walked into the living room I saw the boys sitting akwardly on the sofa. As soon as I walked in, Percy moved to stand by me.
"What did she say?" he asked me.
"I'll tell you in a minuet," I whisppered to him.
"Where's Bella?" Edward asked me.
"She's still upstairs, in her room. She said that she wanted to talk to you. Alone."
"Thank you," he said, before swiftly walking out of the room.
I walked over to the small couch and motioned Percy to join me. He sat down next to me, taking both of my hands in his bigger ones. "What did Bella say?" he asked again.
"She...she want's us to tell the Edward the secret," I whispperd. He may not have known about the secret that Bella and I had, be he knew that we had a secret (being half-bloods) and that Bella knew.
"WHAT?" He exclaimed.
"Percy, it's okay. I trust Bella more than anyone in the world. Besides you, of course. And anyways, she has a few secrets too, that she's going to tell us. We both do."
Percy looked confused. "What secrets? Annabeth, what aren't you telling me?" While he was talking, Percy had backed me up to the arm of the couch, so that I was now trapped.
"Um...uh...you see..." I stammered. Luckly, I was saved by Bella, before I could explain anything to Percy.
"Annabeth? Percy? Could the two of you come up here, please?" she called down.
"Coming, Bella," I called. I quickly pecked Percy's lips. "I promise that I will tell you later. And by later, I mean very soon."
He groaned in defeat, then got of the couch. He offered his hand to help me up as well.
"Come on, Seaweed Brain. Let's go," I said, smiling at him. If only I had known what was coming, I wouldn't have been smiling, and I would have stayed in the living room.
Okay, there's chapter 2. What did you think? Good? Bad? What? I want to know. Don't forget to leave a review. If I get up to 10 reviews, I'll post the next chapter by next Sunday. And no, I still won't give out any hints about chapter 3. Thanks, I love you all!
