Enjoy…

I woke up in a soft, comfy bed. I get up and scan my surroundings. I'm clearly in a hospital! What did I do to end up in a hospital? Then it all came back to me...Poseidon being my dad and Paul Blofis not existing...not existing! How?! Did like-

A sudden thump interrupts my thoughts. I slowly open the curtains.

"Hello?" I call out.

"Oh! You're awake!" A guy with bright blond hair comes jogging towards me.

"Hi! I'm Will Solace!" He extends a hand.

"Hi...Will...nice to meet you," I shake his hand.

"So...Estelle...I am your healer and-" he starts.

"Sorry to interrupt, but wouldn't you be a doctor?"

He laughs.

"You are quite like your brother."

"Where is my brother?" I ask, reminded of Percy.

"Uhhh...one second," he jogs back to his table, picks up a few papers, and hands them to me.

"Percy wanted 'discharge papers' and I don't know why."

"Okay...so am I free to go?"

"Yeah," he shrugs. "Just come back later in the day so I can make sure you are fine."

I practically run out of the place to find myself looking at thirty different cabins and at least ten under construction.

I walk around examining the place until I run into Hazel.'

"Oh! Hi, Estelle!" she said cheerfully.

"Hi, Hazel! Umm…..do you know where Percy is?" I ask.

"I'm pretty sure I saw him walk into Cabin Three."

"Do you...happen to know what Cabin Three is?"

"Come with me and I'll explain to you."

She gave me a tour of the place and explained that cabins were made for demigods according to their Olympian parent.

"Hades is my father, so I belong in Cabin Thirteen."

"And Frank?"

"Well, he's Roman, but he stays in Cabin Five, Ares cabin."

"And Piper?"

"Aphrodite's daughter, so Cabin Ten. Leo in Hephaestus' Cabin. So number nine. Annabeth's mother is Athena-"

"So...Cabin Six?" I say eyeing the owl on top of the door in Cabin Six.

"Hmm-mmm! And Jason is a son of Jupiter or Zeus, I guess. Cabin One. And then there's Poseidon's cabin. Cabin Three."

We stop at a cabin with rough gray stone and seashells sticking out all over the place. On top of the door, a teal trident glows.

"Well, umm, check the place out. Go ahead." Hazel motions towards the door.

I hesitantly open the door and walk inside.

"Annabeth?" Percy's voice calls. "Is that you?"

I find Percy sitting on a couch watching Doctor Who. He turns and his eyes widen in shock as he sees me.

"Estelle?! Oh, I am going to curse Will for not telling me."

"No, no! Don't curse him! He's the one who nursed me back to health."

"True." We sat in an uncomfortable silence.

"Percy," I break the silence. "How are you gonna propose to Annabeth?"

"Oh," he smirks. "I am gonna steal all the apples off of Cabin Six's bowl of fruit. I know how much Annabeth loves apples."

"Okay…." Apples? I thought rings were what you use to propose to somebody.

"Then," he continues, "she'll ask me for an apple. Cuz Cabin Three's bowl of fruit will be the only one with apples at that time. I'll throw an apple at her and BOOM! She's gonna marry me!"

My stupid brother has an impish grin on his face. Wait! No, sorry, a huge smile on hs face.

"That's great and all, Percy! But, why are you throwing an apple at her if you're gonna propose to her?"

"Because," he says it as if explaining to a toddler. "Throwing an apple to a girl in Ancient Greece meant you were asking her to marry you."

"Did you get a ring?"

"Of course!"

"Percy," I say in irritation. "Can you breathe a little softer?"

"I'm nervous!" he says.

"After Tartarus, you think she'll say no?"

"Shut up! Her table isn't that far away." he hisses.

"Hey! Percy! Hand me some type of fruit!" Annabeth calls.

"Come on, Percy! You can do this!" I tell him.

As quick as a flash, Percy picks up an apple and throws it to Annabeth.

The entire dining pavilion went silent.

I can see Piper trying to hold in her joy and happiness at the Aphrodite table.

"Percy," Annabeth voice was small. "You do realize that throwing an apple to a girl in Ancient Greece means you're proposing to her?"

Percy stands up and gives me a small smile as he walks over to Annabeth.

"Of course, Wise Girl. Want the ring too?" he smirks. The entire place erupts into cheers as Annabeth quietly says yes and they

Piper runs to them as soon as they break apart and tightly hugs Annabeth.

I walk over to congratulate them but instead I find myself in the center of a group hug with the Seven. I smile to myself.

This wasn't such a bad day after all.
