- Three months later -
Percy's POV:
Cedric was walking and talking now. He acted like a baby and didn't have any recollection of who we were. Annabeth and I have been practically dating for three months now.
I stood on her front porch and waited for her to open. I looked at the tiny velvet box and sighed. It was a ring; it had a grey diamond in the middle and inside the diamond was the tiniest sapphire. Yesterday I had gone to Mr. Chase's house and asked for his blessing. He said yes, I just hoped Annabeth would too.
The door opened. Annabeth stood there. She smiled and ushered me in. I didn't budge.
'Annabeth, I need to ask you something,' I said nervously.
She nodded. 'Shoot.'
I knelt before her and opened the tiny velvet box. 'Annabeth Chase, will you marry me?'
The grey-eyed girl's eyes started to tear up. 'Yes! Yes!'
I smiled and slid the ring onto her finger and stood up. She kissed me, making my heart leap.

Percy's POV:
I kissed my beautiful bride as everyone cheered. As I came out of it I smiled. Annabeth had somehow gotten Athena to do the ceremony. I walked down the aisle, Annabeth's arm hooked with mine.
I looked at the people standing and clapping. I saw my mom and Paul smiling, I saw Annabeth's dad grinning and I saw Annabeth's stepmom putting on a fake smile.
Then I saw something that shocked me. I saw the face of Poseidon, my dad. I felt my heart stop. Then he smiled. I breathed a sigh of relief. He disappeared and I continued walking.
- A day later -
Annabeth's POV:
I woke up next to Percy, his arm circling her waist. They were all living in Percy's loft, which Drew had moved out of.
Percy and I got up and walked outside. I woke up Cedric and helped him to dress. I made him some breakfast and watched him eat. He spooned the cereal into his mouth, dropping milk on the counter.
Percy came and put his arm around me. We both looked at our little boy. I was in paradise. A blissful paradise. I was happy.
