OMG, guys! I'm soooo sorry I couldn't update sooner! I've been dealing with friendship problems (I think my best friend has replaced me with her new stepsisters), school problems (I had three hard tests on Friday, and even though I studied really hard, I think I failed them all), and being sore from gymnastics, because I had missed stretch. But, I'm on holiday for the rest of the week now, so who cares? I've read all of the reviews on my iPad, and thanks you guys for all the praise!
Annabeth's POV:
I've been really excited that Percy and I are engaged! But, it's the last day of summer already. It's kind of embarrassing to not know my fiancé's phone number already.
"You know, you don't know my address, Percy. Let me see your phone, I'll program. Here's mine, so you could program your number and address into mine," I said one morning, handing him my phone, and taking his. He simply nodded.
When I was done, I went to Miranda's room, where my sleeping daughter was upside down in her bed, crumbs all over her face. I rolled my eyes at that. She was probably eating chips that someone from the Hermes cabin gave to her. I looked at her suitcases on the floor, all zipped up and packed. Today was the day we were leaving.
"Miranda, wake up," I said, shaking her shoulders gently.
"No!" she yelled into her pillow.
"Today is the day we are leaving to go home, sweetie. You have plenty on=f time for sleeping in the car. I'm not going to make you change out of your pajamas.
"Fine," she said, reluctantly getting out of the bed. I made the bed, and had Argus help me carry the suitcases to my car.
"Mommy, where's Daddy?" Miranda asked me.
"He's probably helping Chiron hand out camp beads," I said.
"'Kay. I'm gunna go find him," she said, walking off.
When I was done packing, I went to find Percy. He was giving Miranda a bead.
"Hey," I said. "Where's my bead?" I asked.
"Right here," Percy said, handing me a bead. I examined it. It was sea green with a wedding ring on it. I blushed. When I looked up, Percy was blushing too. I was about to yell at him when he said,
"Not my idea. All Chiron."
I nodded, thinking that that was something Chiron would do…or Miranda. I turned to her suspiciously. She just turned her head and started whistling, and suddenly her shoes became very interesting.
I ignored that.
Later, it was farewell time, and Percy and I were about to jump in our cars and go home. This summer was the best so far, besides the one when I first met Percy, and the day we started dating for the first time.
"Text you when I get home, Seaweed Brain," I said, pecking him on the lips.
"You do know we'll be following each other, since we are both going to Manhattan," he pointed out. For the first time, he was right.
"You killed the moment," I said, kissing him deeply.
"Get a room!" Miranda yelled, interrupting our kiss. "He's not all yours." Then, Miranda gave Percy a hug, and he kissed her forehead.
"I love you, Daddy," she said.
"I love you, too."
"As Percy pointed out to me a few minutes ago, we will see each other this evening!" I said, really annoyed that Miranda was being Seaweed Brain #2 right now, and forgetting that we are supposed to be meeting each other for dinner.
Percy smiled, and I kissed him one more time before strapping Miranda's seatbelt and climbing into my car, on my way home.
I'm sorry this is so short. I'll try to update soon, but there's no telling. I will for sure update before tomorrow night. And I promise, it will be much, much longer. Please review!
