Percy POV: Why do you do this?
It was almost dinner, so I went looking for Annabeth. I caught a glimpse of her in the dining pavilion talking animatedly with Thalia and Kate, obviously telling them how I had been so incredibly suave, and dropped her engagement ring in the Long Island sound.
She saw me out of the corner of her eye and about jumped 60 feet in the air screaming "PERCY!" with a huge smile on her face.
She ran up to me and I picked her up and spun her around. She kissed me, and the grabbed my hand, pulling me towards the corner, like she was going to tell me something in secret.
"Thalia left the hunt to be with Nico!" she blurted out.
"What? No way!" I said, astonished.
"Yes way! Kate and I totally walked in on them like making out! It was so weird, like seeing them on top of each other…" she said trailing off, seeming slightly embarrassed.
"Oh, gods, wow. Thalia and Nico? I really should have seen that coming."
"I know right? It's so strange thinking of them being a couple, don't you think?" she asked.
"Yeah, but they do seem really happy." I pointed out.
"Yeah, well come sit with us, Nico and Zach are here too!" she said, taking my hand again and pulling me towards the table they were sitting at.
"So when do y'all want to have the wedding?" Kate asked. She still had a pretty southern accent.
"Um, I was thinking sometime in the summer." Annabeth said, meeting my eyes. "But I want to have it here at camp." She added.
"How romantic!" I heard one of the Aphrodite girl squeal behind me.
"Lacey! Be quiet!" I heard someone whisper.
"Oh shut up Olivia!" I heard the other person retort, it was obviously Lacey.
Annabeth turned around. "You guys whisper really loud." She said, with a smile.
"We should really call our parents." Annabeth said that night, while we were getting ready for bed. Annabeth spent the nights in my cabin most nights.
"Yeah we should. Do you want to do it now?" I asked her.
"Okay, sure. I'll grab a drachma." She said.
We walked over to the fountain in my room and we through it into the mist. "Oh Iris," We both said. "Please except our offering." Annabeth said. "Please show us Sally Jackson, New York." I added.
I saw my mom appear, and she was sitting on the couch with Paul, probably watching the news or something.
"Percy! Annabeth!" She said happily. "How are you two?" she asked.
"Hey mom," I began. I took Annabeth's hand. "We're fantastic." I said. I looked over at Annabeth. She looked into my eyes, as if to tell I should go on.
"I asked Annabeth to marry me. And she said yes." I told her, feeling a huge smile go across my face. Annabeth squeezed my hand, and I realized she had tears in her eyes.
"Annabeth, you have no idea I have been waiting for my silly son to ask you to marry you!" she exclaimed.
"Same here!" Annabeth said, punching me in the arm.
The two of them talked for what seemed like hours, but then they hung up.
"Let's wait until tomorrow to tell my dad." She suggested.
"Smart thinking, wise girl." I said, kissing her on the top of her head.
"Hey, I'm a little hyper, so I'm gonna go out for a little swim. Do you want to come?" I asked her.
"That's okay, you go ahead. I'm feeling pretty tired." she said, winking at me.
"Okay. Be back in about an hour or so?" I suggested.
"Okay, seaweed brain." She said winking at me.
I walked back into my cabin, after I had gone swimming, and saw Annabeth holding a pillow, and she looked like she was crying.
"Annabeth, love, what wrong?" I asked, rushing over to her. Then I saw she was watching a movie. Titanic.
"Annabeth why do you watch this?" I asked her, chuckling to myself.
"It's j-just so s-sad" she said, choking back a sob.
"Oh, Annabeth, come here." I told her, pulling her onto my lap. "You're pathetic, know that?" I said lightheartedly.
She laid her head on my shoulders, and fell asleep. I picked her up, and set her on the bed, and rested next to her, and she swiftly curled up in my arms.
