(Annabeth's pov)

Ω dining pavilion Ω

I couldn't stop gawking, the entire time that Percy glaring at me, the more I wanted to put my cap on and disappear completely. Thoughts, images, memories came flooding back into my mind, memories of Percy's and I first kiss, date, dance, meeting of the parents. Hot tears began to flow down my cheeks as I felt the hateful gaze of the man I once loved...and I deserved it.

The Spartans made their way towards the lake, along the way they picked up the drop pods they came in and carried them along too. Slowly we made our way back to our cabins to get ready for dinner, a different atmosphere quickly inhabiting the camp.

Thirty minutes later the conch horn blew signaling it was time for dinner. Quickly, all the cabins traveled to the pavilion: Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Hephaestus, Demeter, Hermes, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Athena, Dionysus, Hecate, Morpheus, Hercules, Aeolus, Hebe, Nike, Demios, Gaia, Nyx, and many others. We sat down and did the usual routine of getting our food, burning some of them for the gods, then giving a toast, but it felt different somehow. Even Dionysus wasn't in his usual "I-don't-give-crap" attitude which was a relief and a shocker to all of us.

Then right after announcements, the Spartans entered wearing crimson and black Nike basketball or football shorts and Nike sleeveless muscle shirts that showed their rank insignia, name, and unit number. They were ripped, their upper body muscles kind of visible against the fabric of their shirts which made all the girls from all cabins drool over them while some of the guys averted their eyes as some girl Spartans glared at them. The Spartans sat at the ten farthest round tables in the corner of the pavilion. Then in groups of five or eight, the Spartans went up and got their food and made offerings for the gods as well.

Three times I turned away from them to take a bite or two of my food, on the third time, I turned and was met with an emotionless look on Percy's face as he walked along side a girl that had black hair and grey eyes like mine. She looked about fifteen or sixteen and guys were looking at her but she just ignored them. Following behind them was a guy that had the same eyes as Nico but had brown and curly hair instead of black hair, his arm around a girl's waist that had brunette with grey eyes also. Next came Nico and another girl that had black hair but with blue eyes and a scar in a shape of a lightning bolt on her left arm. Percy and the other girl laughed but I sensed a brother and sister bond between them, not only to her but the rest of the Spartans around him.

"I can't believe he's back," Thalia smiled friendly at Percy who returned her smile with a smile of his own.

"How come he smiles at you but when it comes to me, he gives me a hateful glare?" I looked away from Percy as he gave me his new hate glare for the third time today.

"I think he's still angry with you Annabeth, he wasn't exactly...well...fun and games when he came back to camp after he basically lost everything," Thalia gulped down her chicken Alfredo as she talked, "I remember when he didn't even eat for a week."

I sat there looking at my food remembering that day all too well:

(Flashback)

The look of extreme pain and anger was evident on his face as he sat at his table alone then getting up and leaving for his cabin in a lonely and cold way while receiving looks of pity from other demigods as he passed by them. The long and sleepless nights he had were always filled with nightmares of his failures and fears, sometimes yelling so loud that the entire camp could hear his pain and sorrow. There were even times where I couldn't take it anymore and ran to his cabin just to hold him until his nightmare went away but I was always met with a locked door and was forced to listen to the most heart breaking yells and sobs of pain and loss...and the more it made me feel guiltier of what I had done to him. For two months and several weeks it happened until the day of his birthday; no sounds, no sobs, no painful wails, nothing...and it freaked the entire camp out.

Details of that day kept rushing back into my mind as I remembered Thalia, Nico, Grover, and I rushing into Percy's cabin worried instead of saying "happy birthday" and greeting him with hugs and smiles, but only to find an empty cabin. The bed that Percy slept in was made making it look like Percy hadn't slept on it at all. The Minotaur horn gone from its spot on the wall along with every picture of him, his family, friends, and me gone. Not a single trace or evidence that Percy ever staying at cabin three...and seeing the cabin like that made my heart shatter into more pieces.

Hours went by as the four of us searched everywhere at camp for Percy, but as the day came to a close, it was clear that Percy was gone...gone for good. Weeks passed by and still no sign of him which made my heart ache even more than before. Soon I found myself every night always falling asleep crying from the pain that I put Percy through and the guilt that I brought upon myself due to his absence.

Finally one day I couldn't take it anymore. At the dead of night, I sneaked into the Poseidon cabin with my invisibility hat on and sat on the bed that Percy would always sleep on. Instantly I felt hot tears coming down my face as memories of watching Percy sleep after coming back to camp from our date came back to me that night and I soon found myself slowly falling asleep while crying out my broken heart out at the same time.

To say that the morning brought me some somewhat new joy after crying my heart out the night before was an understatement. Instead I woke up to an angry crying Poseidon who glared at me with absolute hate, "What are 'you' doing in this cabin?"

My voice cracked as I responded, "I...I...I couldn't take it anymore...I felt so guilty."

Poseidon just glared at me, "You should feel guilty! It's your fault that my son felt alone in this world! That he felt that there was nothing for him here and in the outside world anymore that he left!"

I flinched as his voice overwhelmed me, not only was he angry but he was also in grief that Percy was gone from his life as well which made me feel more guilty knowing that it was my fault that I tore Percy away from him. I stayed silent as sobs and tears robbed me of my ability to speak.

"When he needed you the most, you weren't there. I felt his pain and I couldn't do anything to help him due to the ancient laws!" Poseidon turned over a bunk in his rage which only made my heart ache in pain even more.

"Poseidon if I could go back in time and correct it, I would. I still love Percy and-" I was interrupted by the raise of Poseidon's hand to stop me from talking.

"If you loved him...you wouldn't have broke up with him in the first place, if you truly loved him!" he pointed his trident at me and glared at me with angry yet painful eyes that showed tears of grief flowing down from them, "You wouldn't have broken his heart and left him to feel unloved and alone in this world!".

And with that, Poseidon left, leaving me more in pain and guilt than before. Hours of endless tears came out of me as wept for the man whose heart I broke for my own selfish desire.

(End of flashback)

I shook my head as a sudden wave of tears threatened to come out from remembering those days. It was a few days later that I decided to join the hunters to forget everything and start anew, and for two centuries I did just fine. But always when I leased expected it; the pain, the memories, the guilt, and the sorrow came rushing back to me. It was then I knew that I had to see him again and tell him my feelings on all this, but seeing him two centuries later just made me want to crawl into a hole and sleep forever.

After dinner we gathered at the amphitheater for the sing along…except the Spartans. We watched them disappear into the woods as the singing began, their presence still affecting from afar. As night drew to a close all the Campers went back to their cabins except for me. When it was dead quiet, I sneaked out of Cabin eight and made my way to the beach to think. Every time I visited the camp, I would always spend time looking out to the waves for comfort yet the true reason why I always went to the beach was that it always reminded me of Percy. I was about to enter the sands when I saw a figure sitting on the shore. With my invisibility cap on my head, I made my way down the sandy shore to see who it was. As I neared the person, he suddenly turned and pointed his sword tip at my throat.

"What are you doing here?" Percy glared at me with hatred while his hand wasn't too keen on taking the tip of Riptide away from my throat.

"I uh…I always come here to think," I managed to take my cap off while staring him straight in the eye while shaking in fear at the same time. He looked like he wanted to run Riptide through my throat but thankfully he didn't.

"Ah I see," he turned Riptide back into a ball point pen and turned away, "I'll find another spot on the beach to sit on."

I put a hand on his shoulder to stop him from leaving, "Percy you don't have to go because I'm here."

He looked at me over his shoulder telling me to let go and leave him alone which I didn't follow, "That's why I'm going…because you're here."

I turned him around to face me, "Percy can't we just talk?"

"Talk?" he looked into my eyes as he spoke, "Talk! You honestly want us to talk? Annabeth, if I start talking, you'll be on the ground crying."

"I don't care if I cry my guts out, I've had two centuries to do that," I glared back at him as I began to tell him my pain, "You think you're the only one that's had it rough? You think you're the only one that has had to deal with a broken heart! Well you're wrong, because you don't know the guilt I've been feeling for the last two centuries!"

Percy just stood there silent and looking at the ground as he told his story, "Annabeth did you lose your parents the way I lost mine?"

I slowly shook my head, "No, they died by natural causes. Why do you ask?"

Slowly he looked up and I could the two century old pain he held inside of him for so long, his voice was trembling in rage as he spoke, "You don't know the pain 'I've' been living with for the last two centuries. Do you know how it feels when you see your mother crumble because she had a miss carriage then suddenly dying because she felt like it was her fault? Then soon after, my step father takes his life when he can't stand living without them! And you tell me that I don't know pain?"

My eyes glazed with tears as I saw tears of his own falling down his cheeks. Instinctively I reached up to wipe the tears away but he swatted my hand away and took a step back.

"Percy I'm sorry for what happen to your parents," I took a step closer to him, "I wept for them when I heard what hap-"

Percy grabbed me by the throat and slowly squeezed his hand around it hard, "When you heard what happened…WHEN YOU HEARD WHAT HAPPENED! YOU DIDN'T CARE ABOUT THEM OR LOVED THEM AT ALL! WHILE I WAS IN MY OWN MISERABLE UNDERWORLD, YOU WERE IN YOUR OWN PERFECT LITTLE WORLD!"

His grip grew tighter making me gasp for air, "Your mom saw me as her own daughter…even when we broke up she was still a mother to me."

He let go and shoved me away from him, I fell down on my bottom choking for air as he stood over me, "Don't ever say you're sorry because if you were…you wouldn't have left me all those years ago! You wouldn't have left me to suffer on my own during the darkest days of my life when I needed you the most!"

Tears began to fall freely as the guy that I once loved disappeared from me the same way two centuries ago.

(Thalia's pov)

Ω watching Percy and Annabeth Ω

I watched as Percy left Annabeth on the beach crying, my thoughts entirely focused on Annabeth that I didn't hear someone approaching me from behind, "Reminds you about some other event much similar to that huh?

As fast as lightning, I whirled around pointing my spear tip to the last person I would expect to see: Nico.

"Nico?"

"Is this how you say hi nowadays?" he pushed my spear away with his stygian sword and sheathed it but his eyes made it clear: he was upset to see me.

"What happened to you? You just disappeared after the skirmish, we were searching for you...I was searching for you," I put my spear away and looked at Nico who changed dramatically over the years. Instead of being scrawny and well basically pale, he was as tan as Percy and completely built with muscle. Two scars that formed into a somewhat "X" covered most of his arms. The Nico that I knew so long ago didn't exist anymore, only the new and improved Son of Hades standing before me.

Nico grimaced when I asked what happened, "I had to leave...I didn't want to stay here."

"Why?"

"I think you know why Thalia," suddenly Nico placed his palm on my forehead and I was forced to remember why Nico left:

(Flashback) (A/N sorry for the flashbacks in this chapter but they are for the dramatic feel to this story)

"NICO! NICO WHERE ARE YOU!"

Suddenly two huge giants attacked me in the forest outside the boundary line. I tapped aegis and brandished my spear and charged at them. Instinctively, I rolled as the first giant swung his axe at me and with effort, stabbed my spear through his unmentionables making him the largest giant skewer ever. That was the plus side...the bad side was that my spear was stuck in the giant so I had to fight the other giant with my hunting knives. The second giant met me half way but fell back due to the power of my shield. Wanting to end this quick, I threw my shield at the giant like a Frisbee causing him to focus more on the shield rather than the two knives that was hurled straight at him that were both incased with a bolt of lightning around it. A big BOOM and the smell of burnt flesh resonated throughout the battle sight as Nico appeared from the trees, banged up but alive.

Nico sheathed his sword and smiled, "I'm right here Thals, no need to shout."

"Just don't act like a hero next time," I put away my own weapons and returned his smile with one of my own.

"Wow, the mighty Thalia Grace, daughter of Zeus and the first lieutenant of Artemis is actually worried about me," Nico held his arm out like a Shakespeare actor making it dramatic like...then again Shakespeare was a son of Apollo (A/N more of the poetic side of Apollo. Remember Apollo is also the god of poetry) and knowing Nico who talks to dead people, he probably talks to Shakespeare too much.

Both of my shoulders shook as I laughed softly, "Don't get too full of yourself Corpse Breath Jr."

He smiled as he slipped an arm around my waist and pecked me on the lips, "You know you didn't say happy birthday to me yet."

I giggled (which was really rare for me) as he pecked my lips, slowly I wrapped my arms around his neck and held him close, "Happy sixteenth birthday Nico."

"By far, this is the best birthday ever," he kissed me gently yet passionately making my whole body feel sparks of electricity surge through me.

My arms wrapped tighter around his neck and I deepened the kiss more, making his arms wrap tighter around my waist. We were in a total bliss, but what I was about to do next would break both of our hearts.

Slowly I pulled away and gently got out of his hold which made his happy eyes turn into worry. Gently I took his hands and pecked his lips once more before pulling away completely only to leave a gold chain and a locket in Nico's hands. I watched him open it and studied it, his lips slowly turning into a smile. Inside of the locket were three pictures: two were individual pictures that showed me and Nico and the third picture showed Nico carrying me bridal style, both of us smiling our heads off as the picture was taken.

He looked at me and smiled, "Thanks Thalia, I finally have something of you to keep close to my heart."

Hot tears fell down my cheeks as he said those words and put the locket around his neck…what I was about to do next was hard indeed, "Nico…I gave you that locket because I'm not going to be around anymore."

The look on Nico's face nearly made my heart crumble, "Thalia…what are you trying to say? I know you're a huntress but your sixteen now and so am I, you can leave the hunt and you I can be together."

I shook my head as more tears escaped my eyes, "Nico I need to stay in the hunt, all of them need me."

"Thalia I need you as you need me, can't Annabeth take the rank of lieutenant?" he looked at me with pleading eyes hoping that I would say yes.

Again I shook my head, "No Nico, Annabeth is still fragile about her breakup with Percy…she needs me know more than ever. Nico please, don't make this any harder than it already it is, I love you, always remember that and please for me, move on and find someone that will make you happy."

"Thalia you're the only one that makes me happy, you're the only that makes me complete in my life, can't you see that?"

"I can Nico, but you'll just be waiting and waiting for me…I can't let you suffer that for me and I know it pains me when I see the pain in you when you do wait."

"Then I'll keep waiting for you."

"Nico, I'm immortal and you're not. You can't wait for me forever and the gods won't easily grant you the gift of immortality in an instant."

"I'm still going to wait."

"Nico please don't, this is already hard for me…please don't make it harder."

Nico turned his back to me and ripped the locket off his neck. He threw it into the woods and turned back to me, "Then I won' wait for you…goodbye…Thalia."

I watched in pain as Nico evaporated into nothing, his entire body disappearing into the woods. After an hour or so, I organized a search party to find Nico but he was nowhere to be found. The last thing I had of him to remember by was the look of heart ache when he disappeared completely.

Two months later…

The scene changed to Nico fighting the Minotaur and Nemean lion at the same time. I saw the lion slash Nico in the back while the Minotaur threw him against a tree. Nico tried to blast them with his black fire but he was too weak to even move his arms much less his entire body. The Minotaur picked Nico's sword and threw it at him like a knife, the sound of sword going through flesh plus the agony in Nico's voice could be heard for miles as his own sword impaled itself in his right shoulder.

Axe in hand, the Minotaur strode towards the son of Hades with his weapon up while Nico egged him on, "COME ON YOU STUPID SON OF A BITCH! DO IT!"

I gulped as the monster raised his axe to deliver the blow while Nico just whispered, "Finally I can get away from the pain."

Then all of a sudden the Minotaur tensed then howled in pain as a sword tip protruded through its chest. Nico looked up confused, "What the?"

The monster tuned into dust and a figure in a Navy Seals/USMC armor stood in front of Nico. The soldier's helmet only covered the mouth so it revealed a pair of sea green eyes: Percy.

"Percy?" both Nico and I gasped as our old friend nodded.

"Nice to see you again Nico," Percy turned to face the Nemean lion and charged at it, jumping into the air at the same time as the lion pounced. In a quick move, he uncapped Riptide and drove it through the lion's mouth making short work of the already dissolving monster. Slowly the vision began to fade as I saw Percy put an arm around Nico's shoulders and carried him to a safe place.

(End of flashback)

I shook my head as the vision ended, my heart feeling regret when I looked into Nico's eyes. Instead of anger I saw pain...great pain that I never thought existed.

"Nico I'm sor-"

He held up his hand to stop me, "It's ok Thalia. You and I were never meant to be, we can't stop fate and destiny. Besides I don't want us to be like Percy and Annabeth."

My eyes blinked as I looked at him, "You don't hate me?"

Nico laughed which made me realize that I actually missed his laugh, "No I don't hate you Thalia, there's was a point in my life that I couldn't stand the sound of hearing your name after I disappeared but thankfully two centuries is more than enough time for me to not hate you anymore."

Without warning, I threw my arms around him and hugged him tight. To my surprise Nico hugged me back and gently patted my back, "It's nice to see you again Thalia."

"It's nice to see you again too Nico...I really missed you," I held him tighter and buried my face in his chest as a new wave of tears began to make its way to my eyes...this was so not like me.

I expected for him to gently pull away but Nico kept holding me in his arms whispering back, "I missed you too."

And finally after two centuries...I was back at peace...for the time being.

(Percy's pov)

Ω walking into the woods Ω

I made my way back to our mini base until I was stopped by an awkward and surprising sight. There in the shadows of the trees stood Thalia and Nico holding each other and showing no signs of letting go.

Using the power of power mimicking, I made myself invisible so I could approach the both of them without them knowing it. I watched them for about five minutes when finally I decided to butt in, "I always wondered what ozone and dead people would smell like when put together."

Instantly their bodies separated and stared at me in shock as I appeared from my invisibility stunt laughing my head off. Nico made it even more priceless when he started to rub the back of his neck while blushing like crazy; Thalia on the other hand gave me her most famous death glare that surprisingly had no affect on me like it used to do back in the good old days.

"I read somewhere that if you keep doing a certain facial expression it becomes your permanent on your face," I laughed while Thalia began to crackle with energy.

"I see you're still a seaweed brain, after all these years I thought you would amount to some brain mass...then again your head has always been and always will be full of kelp," her glare and eyes became even more murderous which made me smirk more while Nico gulp, but the type of gulp that meant "you-look-so-hot-when-you're-angry" gulp to Thalia.

"I must say that scowl and glare fits you well Thalia."

"You're a jackass Percy."

"Thanks, I like to think of myself as one too. Glad you and I can think alike."

"You didn't have to be so hateful towards Annabeth you know? She hasn't had a very 'thrilling' life after you left to Hades knows where!" Thalia looked at Nico, "No offense."

Nico shrugged, "Eh none taken."

I shrugged, "She deserves it."

Thalia clenched her fists and a lightning aura began to glow around her, "Annabeth knows she deserves it, that doesn't mean that she has to be reminded of it constantly."

"Whatever Thalia," I looked back to where I left Annabeth and sighed, "She needs you right now Thalia…for 'girl talk'. Now if I may, I'll take my leave."

I nodded to Thalia and walked past her to our mini hidden base in the woods. Nico's voice said a goodbye to Thalia and I was soon followed by the son of Hades who had a lot of questions on his mind.

(Nico's pov)

Ω walking back to base Ω

Our walk back to our base was silent until we reached a green light shining from a small tripod on the ground. I stopped Percy and placed a hand on his shoulder, "What happened?"

Percy just shrugged, "I saw Annabeth and we talked."

"Talk as in 'you-made-her-cry' talk?" I crossed my arms and leaned against a tree as he stood in front of me, "You sure have a way with women."

A laugh escaped him, "You're the one to talk…you fell for a huntress."

"Yeah but you fell for a daughter of Athena, the mortal that would become the next Oracle, my sister, Aphrodite, Zoe, and Calypso, oh and that chick that we met at Vegas." I was on the floor laughing as he turned and glared at me for saying all those girls.

"Ok one…Annabeth was the only girl I've ever fallen for, the rest were close friends."

"So you're saying that you were too good for my sister?"

"No not like that…but now that you mention it-"

"Watch it fish boy, that's my sister you're talking about…"

Percy chuckled, "Just kidding, now let's return to base so we can forget about this day."

I nodded and let Percy go first into the green transparent light; his body became that of a lava lamp before completely disappearing. Soon I followed after inhaling the air that I called "home".

(Annabeth's pov)

Ω sitting on the beach Ω

I sat on the beach with my knees close to my chest as I let my mind replay Percy's and I 'talk'. It was official, Percy hates me for life…and I caused it. Slowly more tears made its way to the surface of my eyes as I remembered his glare…those sea green eyes that was once filled with joy and excitement were now filled with anger and pain. Minutes passed by as I sat on the sand in silence until Thalia showed up.

"Hey…"

"Hey…"

She sat down next to me and stared at the waves with me, "So how was your talk with Percy?"

"Thalia you saw what happened," I sighed as the tide slowly made its way towards us, "Please don't make me explain what happened, it already hurts when I had to hear it with my own ears…it'll hurt more if I retell it."

"Annabeth he had no right to blow up on you."

"In case you didn't know Thalia, I broke up with Percy. It was my fault that made him leave. Whatever anger he throws at me…I know I deserve it."

Thalia rolled her eyes and purposely shocked me like lightning bolt shock me. I turned to see a smirking daughter of Zeus while I smelled like ozone thanks to her. She pulled me up by the shoulders and shook me while speaking, "ANNABETH ATHENA (A/N um don't really know Annabeth's middle name so I just put Athena as her middle name) CHASE! YOU ARE THE DAUGHTER OF THE WISDOM GODDESS, STOP ACTING LIKE A BROKEN HEARTED APHRODITE GIRL AND START ACTING LIKE THE ANNABETH THAT DOESN'T GIVE A CRAP ABOUT ALL OF THIS!"

My eyes grew dark and serious and I glared straight into Thalia's mind, "What if Nico hated you? What if he hated you for breaking his heart even to this day? How would you feel much less cope with it?"

Silence soon followed afterward as Thalia stood there speechless. Gently she let go of her grip on my shoulders and looked down ashamed.

I laughed a sarcastic laugh, "I thought so."

Hmmmm I wonder if I should always end the chapters in cliff hangers? LMAO anyways thank you all for reviewing and if you guys have any ideas for the story, I'll see if I can try to add them in but in the mean time, plz review (oh and that snake chasing thing really did happen when I was about to write this chapter =D _ )!
