POV: Percy
I quickly got dressed and ran out to meet Annabeth.
She was pacing along the beach.
"Hey wise girl." I said hugging her from behind. She didn't respond. I sat down on the sand and pulled her onto my lap.
"Hey." She mumbled after a couple minutes.
Something was wrong. I could tell. My Annabeth wasn't being Annabeth.
"What's wrong?" I asked her.
She smiled humorlessly.
"A quest. It's a quest." She whispered.
"What?" I questioned. "No! You're twenty now! The last quest you went on was the Titan war!" I yelled.
"Do you think I want to go?!" She questioned just as angrily. "Percy, I have to. It's for my mother. She's…"
"It's okay." I told her pulling her closer to me.
"My mom. She's missing."
So that's why Chiron wanted Annabeth to go.
"I'm going, Jake is going an-."
"WAIT! Jake!?" I cut her off.
"Can I finish?" she laughed. "And Ivy is going."
"Yeah, he would be going." I mumbled.
"What?" she asked me.
"Nothing." I replied.
"Well, I'd better go pack now." she said.
"Yeah…" I told her.
She kissed me on the cheek and ran off to her cabin.
Why does JAKE of all people have to go? It couldn't be Sarah or Malcolm even! Of course not, Jake has a huge crush on my Wish Girl. Everyone knows it. I think even Chiron knows.
I jumped into the ocean, letting myself sink to the bottom. Luckily, because I was a child of Poseidon, my clothes never got wet in the water unless I wanted them to.
"I have to see her." I whispered even though there were only a few fish nearby.
I jumped out of the water and ran over to the Athena cabin.
"Annabeth, I-… What is he doing here?" I asked spotting Jake as I walked in.
"Percy! No it's not- it isn't like that. I promise!" Annabeth pleaded as I zeroed in on their hands intertwined.
Too stunned to say anything, I turned around to leave.
"Percy!" Annabeth called, but I didn't look back.
COMMENT COMMENT COMMENT! Should I go on?
