Short but I really love it. I hope you do too. (:
Ten years. That's how long it took Percy to say those four words. In his defense there was A LOT going on. Between the gods, camp, and normal life, meaning school, there was just no time for Percy and Annabeth to really be together. Then again, in her defense, they were in love, and they both knew they could never be with another person besides each other. Ten years had past and they haven't even thoughts about another person.
He knew she was getting frustrated. Yeah Annabeth wasn't like normal girls, but she was when it came to her love for Percy. So when he did say those four words, her reaction didn't really surprise him.
"Will you marry me?" He gave his best smile that he knew she couldn't deny.
She looked shocked at first, but then she smiled her biggest smile Percy's ever seen, even bigger than the first time he told her he loved her. She punched him in the chest as a lonesome tear slid down her eye.
He rubbed his chest, laughing, "Ow wise girl."
"Finally you stupid seaweed brain! Of course I will!" He put the ring on her finger and stood up as she flung herself at him, he squeezed her tight in a hug. When they pulled apart Percy rubbed his thumb over the tear wiping it off, and kissed her.
"I love you." He said.
"Obviously seaweed brain," She laughed at his shocked expression, "otherwise you wouldn't of asked me to marry you." She smiled, but of course said I love you back.
All Annabeth could think about in that moment was her accomplishment of finally building something permanent, and in that moment Percy believed the same thing too.
Thoughts? (:
