I'M SO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING! I HAD SOME FAMILY EMERGENCIES I HAD TO ATTEND TO! TO MAKE UP FOR IT I MADE A LONG CHAPTER! OH AND ARTEMIS WINS!
PERCY POV
Artemis kissed me and all I could do is kiss her back because I was dazed.
"You know you haven't completely wooed me yet right?" Artemis said giving me a sly smile
"Yeah, I know" I said
"Good" She says and kisses me again.
We were furiously making out and when we were my foot stepped on Artemis' bow! OH CRAP!
"PERSEUS JACKSON!" Artemis screamed
"y-yes?" I say scared
"YOU BROKE MY OLD BOW THAT WAS GIVEN TO ME BY ORION! THAT BOW WAS REALLY SPECAIL! HE GAVE IT TO ME!" Artemis screamed at me
"I thought you hated him" I said hurt clearly seen in my voice
"n-no it's not special" Artemis lied, she gave it away by stuttering and not looking at me in the eyes and I have the ability to tell when someone is lying.
"I know you're lying Artemis" I said anger slowly seeping into my voice.
"Wha? How?" Artemis asked confused
"I thought you loved your new bow that I gave to you!" I said hurt and anger in my voice but mostly hurt
"I do love it but-" Artemis started
"If you love him SOOOOOOOOO much why don't I go take him back for you so he can be your BOYFRIEND or even your HUSBAND" I said angrily
"Percy please I LOVE YOU!" Artemis said
"HMPH!" I scoffed "yeah right" I said
"Stop this now Percy! PLEASE!" Artemis pleaded
"Stop what? I thought that you loved me NOT Orion!" I shouted/said at Artemis my anger coursing through my body
"But Percy I do love you" Artemis whispered .
She was starting to cry. NO! This made me feel so bad, I never wanted to hurt Artemis. I love her. She loves me. RIGHT? right? I just want to hold her and tell her that everything is going to be okay but she loves Orion even after what he did to her hunters and INNOCENT maidens! I held my ground but I couldn't take this sight any longer and went over to her and wrapped my arms around her waist.
"P-percy?" Artemis asked
"Yeah?" I said
"Please forgive me! I do love you more than anything in the world" Artemis said with truth my senses telling me she indeed say the truth to me
"Artemis I could never ever stay mad at you" I said and kissed her
"We should go to sleep, it's getting late" Artemis said after we broke the kiss
"Yeah, I'll go to the other room" I said
"NO! You are sleeping with me" Artemis said
"Okay then" I said
We went to bed cuddling with each other.
TIME SKIP (MORNING)
PERCY POV
I know what to do to win Artemis' heart! I have to do it. She can't see me today but she will tonight.
"Artemis?" I asked
"Hm?" She said
"I need to go somewhere but can you be here at 7 p.m.?" I asked
"Sure why?" She asked
"I'll tell you later but wear something that you can run in and jump with" I said
She looked at me curiously but I just shrugged it off and flashed to my palace that was rebuilt. I went in there and went to the bedroom. I planned a date for Artemis... I hoped it was perfect! I love her and I need her to know how special she is to me!
TIME SKIP TO 7 P.M.
ARTEMIS POV
There was a knock on the door at 7:00 p.m. sharp. I opened the door to find Percy in casual clothes. Hmmmm, I wonder where we're going...
"Are you wearing the bracelet I gave you?" He asked suddenly
"Yes, why?" I asked
"I just wanted to know if you liked it" He said
"I love it Percy!" I said
"Ready to go?"He asked
"Yup" I said popping the 'P'
He flashed me to a forest.
"What are we doing here?" I asked
"We are going to hunt together" Percy said
"REALLY?" I screamed
"yep" he said
I was obviously not expecting this to happen. I thought we were just going somewhere to eat and that's it but it's not like that with Percy Jackson the man who I fell in love with. He's different. I want to see what he does tonight... This will be very interesting...
I pulled my charm and the bow appeared. It was glowing since it was at night. We walked around silently trying to find some deer and we finally did after 45 minutes of looking. We crept up to the deer like 50 ft. away and fired arrows at him. Percy took the meat and cooked it and that was our dinner, it was one of the best dinner. It touched me to know that Percy didn't just pay for the food but actually hunted it with me because he knows that I love hunting and cooked it by himself. I have to admit... He is a good cook. I hope he cooks more often...
"You done eating?" He asked
"Yeah, the food was amazing" I said
"Thanks, you ready to go?" He asked
"YEP" I said
We cleaned up everything and we flashed to one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. IT WAS AMAZING! There was a forest but there was a cliff and below it was the ocean that looked beautiful and to make it even better the moonlight directly hit the ocean making the night seem brighter and prettier. Percy took my hand and flew to an overhang I overlooked and landed on it. He snapped his fingers and blankets, pillows, and candles appeared.
"Close your eyes" He instructed
I closed my eyes and I heard his fingers snap.
"You can open your eyes now" He said
Once I opened my eyes he had a guitar in his hand. OMG IS HE GOING TO SING?! HE NEVER DOES THAT!
He cleared his voice and started
My heart's a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note-o-o,
Make me your radio,
and turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
Just sing along to my stereo
If I was just another dusty record on the shelf,
Would you blow me off and play me like everybody else,
If I asked you to scratch my back could you manage that,
Like check it Travie I can handle that,
Furthermore I apologize for any skipping tracks,
It's just the last girl that played me left a couple cracks,
I used to used to used to used to now I'm over that,
Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts,
If I could only find a note to make you understand,
I'd sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand,
Just keep it stuck inside your head like your favorite tune,
And know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you
My hearts a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note-o-o,
Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
So sing-a-long to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
To my stereo
Oh oh oh oh,
So sing a long to my stereo
If I was an old school 50 pound boom box,
Would you hold me on your shoulder wherever you walk,
Would you turn my volume up in front of the cops,
And crank it higher every time they told you to stop,
And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me,
When you have to purchase mad D Batteries,
Appreciate every mix tape your friends make,
You never know we come and go like we're on the interstate,
I think I finally found a note to make you understand,
If you can hear it sing along and take me by the hands,
Keep me stuck inside your head like your favorite tune,
And know my hearts a stereo that only plays for you
My heart's a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note-o-ote,
Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
So sing-a-long to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
To my stereo
Oh oh oh oh,
So sing a long to my stereo
I only you pray you never leave me behind,
(Never leave me)
Because good music can be so hard to find,
(So hard to find)
I take your head and hold it closer to mine,
(Yeah)
Thought love was dead but now you're changing my MIND
My heart's a stereo,
It beats for you so listen close,
Hear my thoughts in every note-o-ote,
Make me your radio,
Turn me up when you feel low,
This melody was meant for you,
So sing along to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, Oh oh oh
To my stereo
Oh oh oh oh,
So sing a long to my stereo
(Yeah)
Did he really just do that? Did he just really sing? FOR ME? HE has the most beautiful voice I have ever heard. I walk up to him and hug him. He quickly hugs back. We break apart after a while. I look into his eyes and I look into his. We stand there staring at each other's eyes. I couldn't help it any longer. I leaned in and kissed him on the lips. It wasn't just another kiss. This one was emotional, passionate, fierce, and demanding kiss. I tried to pour all of my emotions into that one amazing kiss so that he could know how I felt. He returned with even more passion that I didn't know how I was still standing there. We broke apart after a long, long time.
"That was beautiful" I said
"Well I meant every single word." He said
"This was really sweet" I said
After that we just cuddled and we went back to my palace.
"See you tomorrow Artemis" He said
"Bye" I said
TIME SKIP TO THE MORNING
Once I woke up and got ready I pulled the heart charm on the charm bracelet and Percy was immediately there next to me.
"Hey" I said
"Hey back" He said
"Can you become the guardian of the hunt?" I asked so that I could spend more time with him
"Yeah of course" He said
I flashed him to the hunter's camp.
"Hunters I have an announcement. Percy here will be our guardian" I said sternly
To my surprise, they were okay with it because they used to see Percy all the time when we were dating and they actually liked him. YES! This would make things so much easier.
"Hunters we are also going to Camp Half-Blood so pack up" I said
TIME SKIP TO CAMP HALF BLOOD
PERCY POV
So...we're going to camp. Should I be happy or sad? I don't actually know. I'll see my friends again. Annabeth and I are friends again! We flashed to Camp Half-Blood and I told Artemis that I would go to see my friends. I decided to go see Annabeth since I haven't seen her in a long time and we are like best friends. I went to her cabin (she is immortal) and went inside.
"Hey Wise Girl" I said
"Hey Seaweed Brain" She said
"Want to hang out?" I asked
"Of course, I would love to hang out with my best friend!" She said in a 'duh' tone
"Let's go to the beach." I said
Once we walked to the beach we talked about our lives and what has happened in them. We talked about Camp and how all of our friends were doing.
Once, it was time for dinner I pulled her in for a long hug.
"I had an awesome time" I said
"Me too" She responded still hugging me
"See you later and I'll talk to you soon" I said
ARTEMIS POV
Why the hell did he hug her for 3 minutes?! Does he love her and not me? Ugh! I HATE HIM! (A.N. DON'T WORRY IT WILL PERTEMIS JUST WITH A LOT OF BUMPS ON THE WAY) UGH! I'll think about him later. When I walked into the dining pavilion ORION WAS THERE!
"Why are you here?" I asked
"Gaea brought me back but I am on Olympus' side. I swear on the Styx." He said looking at me with happiness
"We should have an archery contest and talk sometime later." I said
"Okay how about tonight then" He asked
"Of course" I said
I quickly ate dinner excited for the archery contest. I was going to win!
After dinner we went to the archery range.
We started the competition. Whoever could shoot more accurately would win. It was out of 20 arrows.
We fired and of course I won.
I hugged him unaware that Percy was watching this. I hugged him and he hugged back and once we parted I kissed his cheek and left my lips there for 10 seconds.
I heard a small cry and turned around to see Percy with his bow in his hand tears streaming down his face. I felt bad... I didn't want him to see this. I wasn't cheating on him right? I love him and hate him at the same time. I'm mad that he can change my thoughts about men and love him because he did so many things for me. I feel so sad. I love him!
He ran away crying and it was MY fault.
"Now where were we?" Orion said
He pulls me in for a kiss but I punch him and run away to follow Percy. I didn't want him to see me so I hid in trees and bushes. He entered the Athena cabin. I used my godly hearing to hear their conversation.
"What's wrong Percy?" Annabeth asked
"Artemis happened" He said sadly
"Tell me" She said placing her hand on his shoulder making me want to punch her.
"Artemis kissed Orion on the cheek for 10 seconds. I thought she loved me." He said
"Maybe it's just a friendly kiss?" Annabeth suggested
"No, a friendly kiss would NEVER EVER last that long" He said
"Percy, It's going to be okay. You know why?" Annabeth asked
"Why?" He asked curiously
"Because I'm here to help you" Annabeth said and kissed him!
SHE KISSED HIM! SHE KISSED HIM! SHE KISSED MY MAN! SHE KISSED MY PERCY! MY PERSEUS! You want to know what shocked me even more? HE KISSED HER BACK AND PUT HER HANDS AROUND HER WAIST!
PERCY POV
Annabeth kissed me! My ex kissed me! Well, her hair still smells like lemons. We broke apart smiling.
"Percy, I need to tell you something" Annabeth said
"Yeah?" I asked
"It wasn't me who kissed Jake. He put a love potion into my drink" Annabeth said
"Okay, thanks for letting me know that YOU actually didn't cheat on me" I said happily
"Percy , I have an idea" Annabeth said
"What is it" I asked curiously
"How about we be friends with benefits?" Annabeth asked
"Okay that's fine with me" I said
"Nothing weird will happen between us okay? We are still the best of friends okay? We will only kiss and stuff like that when both of us are not in a relationship okay?" She asked
"Okay" I said
"I'll see you later Annabeth" I said and kissed her
TIME SKIP
Well it's been a week since the hunters have been at camp and it is time to leave camp and go back to hunting even though there is nothing to hunt. Things between me and Artemis have been very on edge. Chaos gave me more time to get a wife though. That's good because I'm single. I'm heartbroken. I don't know what else to explain it. The hunters and I grabbed our stuff and flashed to a forest. We set up camp and I asked if I could talk to Artemis in private.
I flashed us to my palace on Olympus that I made.
"Hi Artemis" I said
"Hello Perseus" She said coldly Ouch! I thought
"Artemis we need to talk" I said
"What do you want to talk about?" She asked
"I want to ask about us. What are we?" I asked
"I don't know. Why did you kiss Annabeth?" She asked
"Why did you kiss Orion?" I said
"Stop avoiding the question" She said
ARTEMIS POV
"Why don't you do the same thing Artemis?" I asked
I've had it!
"ME! WHY ARE YOU FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS WITH ANNABETH?! WHY DID YOU HUG HER FOR 3 MINUTES?! WHY DID YOU KISS HER BACK AND WHY DID YOU KISS HER AGAIN! ORION IS MUCH BETTER THAN YOU! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU! I CAN'T BELIEVE I TRUSTED YOU! I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME! I HATE YOU PERSEUS JACKSON!" I screamed Percy I love you please, I need you! Don't leave me!
He ran away crying tears overflowing his face and I could only think of one thing:
I overdid it! I love him and I was the one who made him run away from me!
