AN: Guess who's back? Just got done with school Friday, so I will be updating a lot more! Sorry last chapter sucked! I was busy and had only a little time to write, but now I'll have more!

Hello summer, bye bye stress!

Ready for late nights, campfires with smores at the lake, hijacking our neighbor's water trampoline up north, and Country music at The Barn in a pickup truck pretending we're hicks!

Disclaimer: I do not own PJO.

Yeah, I'm a little drunk on you, and high on the summertime!(:


APOV

Percy's homecoming was short. He was sent right back to the hospital less than a week later after he was discharged. (AN: This also happened to JABS just awhile ago.)

He was having major pains and problems usually associated to his condition. This was quite an upset for all of us and completely ruined our spirits. None of us had been really talking lately.

Our usually conversations usually went a little like this:

Percy- "Annabeth, can you get me some water?"

Me- "Okay."

Percy- "Now make me a sandwich."

Me- "Get your own damn sandwich."

End of conversation.

It was quite boring lately, and Percy and I were on one of those non-talking stages. Sally sat on here computer writing her stories, and Paul was at school until 3:00. He'd get to the hospital, and after a silent day, we'd put in a movie and go to bed.

Today, though, would be the day where things would change.

Thalia came in to visit him, and she was extremely obnoxious, especially today. Today was our last day of our Junior year. We were officially Seniors now. By next year, Percy should be out of the hospital for good and should be able to attend Goode for our last year.

"AHHHHHH! WE ARE OFFICIALLY SENIORS! WHOOOO!" Thalia screamed.

"Thalia! Shut up!" Percy hissed.

"DON'T YOU DARE TELL ME TO SHUT UP, JACKSON! I CAN SCREAM IF I WANT TO!" Thalia said with an even louder tone than before.

"Hey!" Nurse Aria said through the door. "No screaming! You just woke up the old man in the room next door, and he isn't what you'd call a happy camper!"

"Sorry," Thalia muttered.

Percy gave her a smug look.

"Oh, wipe that look off your face before I wipe it off for you!" Thalia said.

"Violence in the third degree!" I said under my breath.

"I am a violent person, deal with it!" Thalia snapped.

"Anyways, why are you so excited? We still have to wait another summer," I told her.

"I'm excited because we get to own the school, have Senior pranks, wear black, and half the classes! Who wouldn't be excited?" she said rather enthusiastic.

"We still have another summer," Percy said.

"Which is the last one we'll spend together before we go off to college! This has to be the absolute best summer there has ever been! After this year, I will barely see you guys with me going to North Carolina, Percy going to NYU, and Annabeth going to Cornell. I think I may cry! I'll miss you guys!" Thalia said with little sparkles of tears at the brim of her eyes.

"Thalia, we still have another year. You're a little bipolar today. First you're all excited, and now this. Jeesh. I promise you that we will visit you every summer as long as you call me everyday!" I told her.

"I promise," she said, with a smile tugging on her lips.


Thalia left an hour later, and she had completely changed the atmosphere. It's funny how she does that.

Percy and I were on better talking terms and Sally joined in every once in awhile.

Right now we decided to watch The Descendants since the only thing we could do to try and cure our boredom was watching movies.

We laughed the entire time.

"Oh my gosh! I love this movie! That wife was such a jerk, though!" Percy said.

"Yeah, poor George Clooney. He needs a wife that treats him right!" I said.

"I think I know where to find one," Sally said while winking at me.

I laughed while Percy gave his mom a disgusted face and Paul looked horrified.

Sally and I laughed so hard that I thought they could hear us all the way over in China.

Paul and Percy's expressions made it all the more better.

Dr. Ezra came in at one point and asked if Paul and Sally could step out a moment. He had some important issues to discuss.

"So... Annabeth," Percy said.

"So... Percy," I said back to him.

Percy was sweating buckets and shaking like crazy.

"Percy, are you okay?" I asked him, really starting to get worried. What if this was another one of his symptoms?

"I'm fine," he said. His voice was really shaking.

"Are you sure? Do you want me to get the nurse?" I said, while standing up to go get the nurse.

"No, Annabeth! I'm fine!" he exclaimed hastily.

"Are you sure?" I asked, freezing where I was.

"Positive."

"Okay," I said hesitantly before sitting down.

"Th-There's just, um, something I want to ask you," he said while stumbling over his words.

"And what would that be?"

"Um... Uh... Well..." he started mumbling along with some other incoherent words.

"Spit it out, Seaweed Brain!" I exclaimed.

"Will you marry me?"

My jaw dropped. My heart was racing a mile a minute. I felt like my world was slowly turning upside down.

"Wait!" he said. "I don't mean right now or before High School ends. I mean sometime in the future. Maybe during college, or even after. I just want to know that you are mine, and that nothing can change that."

I stared at him for quite some time. My mind still trying to process what he said.

After what seemed like seconds for me, but later he would tell me that it felt like hours to him, I told him something that would change our lives.

"Yes."

Peecy seemed to do a double take. At first he looked a little down, like I said 'No'. Then his eyes got wide as he processed what I said. Then he broke out into a huge smile, his beautiful sea green eyes sparkling.

"Really?" he asked.

"Yes, really! What, are you trying to make me change my mind?" I teased him.

"No!" he said before I could even finish my sentence.

"Good because I don't think I've ever been more right about anything in my life than I am right now," I told him.

"And I don't think I've loved anyone more than I love you," he told me.

Then I kissed my new fiancé.

I don't know how long we were like that, but I do know that we only broke apart because Paul cleared his throat.

Flushed, we quickly pulled apart.

"Percy, Annabeth, we have some rather, Er, interesting news to tell you.," Paul started.

"And that would be?" Precy asked.

"Percy," Sally started, "your father is here to visit you."

"He is?" Percy asked, stunned.

"Yes, but that's not it. Annabeth, your mother came with him."


AN: So what do you think? Better than last chapter, at least. Review please!(:
