Hi guys! I started this chapter as soon as I finished the last one because I felt like I owed it to you. Only it's later than they usually are because I haven't had that much time with school and stuff. Wow, I hate exams!

I've decided to go over every chapter a while after the story is done to edit and make it actually look presentable. Can you tell me if I did good with the first and second chapter or not? I've already edited those, the second more than the first, and it would really mean a lot! Thanks!

Since I'm probably starting to bore you, on to the sort of long awaited chapter! *curtains open and announcers voice speaks*

Disclaimer: Awesomeninja09 does not own Percy Jackson! And while I'm here, you can take as many pictures as you want as long as those pictures are good! Thank you! *announcer guy leaves*

Now starting the chapter! Yay!


Annabeth had mixed feelings. She didn't know what to think.

Percy had to stay. Knowing him for months had forced her to like him. Well, not forced, per say. More like made her conscious discover her feelings for him. Well, not made, but... ugh! This is what she meant by mixed feelings!

Percy had to stay. That's the one thing that she knew. Her mind was grasping and searching for facts that were true, and that was one of them. He had to. He couldn't leave her here.

Then there was a matter of Nico and Thalia.

Thalia was sweet. A little punk, but sweet. She cared about her friends and family (especially her family) and protected them (even though Percy and Nico didn't need protecting). Nico was nice, too. A little quiet, but nice. Ever since starting Goode, he seemed to have opened up to everyone, his cousins included. That was definitely good.

So, the facts. Percy had to stay. Thalia was punk and sweet. Nico used to be quiet but has started to open up. All of those were true facts. So were the fact that Rachel, Drew, and Calypso were all of a sudden being nice. She guessed that those were true facts as well.

Why is she saying true facts instead of facts, you might ask? Well, not all facts are true. There are such things as false facts, or information that you believe to be true that isn't. Your favorite color might be sea green, so you know that as a fact. Only it might not be a true fact. It might be a fake fact that is believed to be true, but it's still a fact.

This is too hard to explain, she thought. Oh well.

Annabeth remembered back to the day that they had first met in the elevator; the time when she hadn't known that it was TB3 in the same elevator as her. She probably would've fainted if she had known, but she hadn't. So she didn't.

"But that Nico di Angelo kids is handsome, right? Not cute?" Nico asked.

"Eh. Nico's okay. Of course, all of the girls around here talk about Percy Jackson. The boys talk about Thalia Grace, but Nico isn't mentioned too much." Grey Eyes said.

The dark eyed boy looked hurt. Green Eyes and Blue Eyes shot him glances, trying not to laugh, and Dark Eyes' expression turned from hurt to terrified quickly. Blue Eyes and Green Eyes burst out laughing, not able to hold it in anymore. Dark Eyes looked at them helplessly. "I'm never gonna live this down, huh?"

"Nope."

"Never."

"Absolutely not."

"In your wildest dreams."

"Ugh." Dark Eyes buried his head in his hands. "Curse this day."

"What do you mean?" Annabeth asked curiously.

"Nothing. Just an inside joke." Green Eyes answered.

"So, I didn't catch your names? What are they?" Piper questioned.

"Peter Johnson."

"Nick Angel. Curse you, parents who named me."

"Tara Gray."

"Well I'm Piper McLean." Piper said.

"Annabeth Chase." Annabeth stated.

"Nice to meet you." Peter said.

"Same to you." Piper grinned before we all left the elevator.

"Did they seem a little... I don't know, off, to you at all?" the daughter of a famous fashion designer asked Annabeth once they got out of Peter, Nick, and Tara's sight.

"Yeah. Good to know that I wasn't the only person thinking it." Annabeth answered.

"Even if you had been thinking it, you'd probably be right." Piper grinned as they waited to cross the street and head towards their plane. "We'd better hurry. We were supposed to be gone a while ago."

"Oh well. Let's just hope that we're lucky."

As it turns out, the odds were in their favor. They made it to the plane and TB3 had performed a quick song on it. Now that Annabeth thought back, it could've been more obvious. Their initials were the same, for gods sake! They all seemed to hesitate for about a millisecond (if not less) when answering, and they all glanced at each other. Seriously, how did she not notice? Annabeth was supposed to be smart!

Supposed to be.

She laid back on the couch in her small apartment and turned the radio on. One of TB3's newest songs came on. It was called Hey There Delilah.

A small aching appeared in her heart. Percy was going to leave later that day to go on tour. Only listening to the lyrics, Annabeth couldn't help but think that the song was made for her in the future.


(Normal is Percy)

"Hey there Delilah, what's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away but girl, tonight you look so pretty, yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you, I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah, don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely, give this song another listen
Close your eyes, listen to my voice, it's my disguise, I'm by your side

Ohh, it's what you do to me, ohh, it's what you do to me
Ohh, it's what you do to me, ohh, it's what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard but just believe me girl someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar, we'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good

Hey there Delilah, I've got so much left to say, if every simple song I wrote to you would take your breath away, I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall, we'd have it all

A thousand miles seems pretty far but they've got planes and trains and cars, I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us, and we'll just laugh along because we know that none of them have felt this way

Delilah, I can promise you that by the time that we get through, the world will never ever be the same, and you're to blame

Hey there Delilah, you be good and don't you miss me. Two more years and you'll be done with school and I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you, we can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah, here's to you, this one's for you

Ohh, it's what you do to me, ohh, it's what you do to me
Ohh, it's what you do to me, ohh, it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Ohhh

(Hey There Delilah by Train)


Just then a knock was heard on her door. Standing up, Annabeth went to answer it.

Rachel was standing there, eyes wide.

"Yeah, Rachel?" She asked cautiously.

"Percy, Nico, and Thalia are saying their final goodbyes. Just thought I'd warn you." She answered after a few seconds. Annabeth felt small, traitor tears start to make her eyes watery, so she blinked them away as fast as she could.

"Okay. I'll be right there."

And Rachel was gone.


Pretty bad chapter, if do say so myself. You can find that little scene that's mentioned and copied in chapter two if you want to go back and read it again.

One of my PMing buddies, Pulyauthorgirl, "recommended" a FanFiction called Jo Bekke At Hogwarts Commentary by a Weirdo. It's about this really terrible FanFiction that got deleted that they are commenting on. It's full of racism, bragging, and much much more. Here is one sentence written by the real author of the story:

He spok in an awsum suthurn bretesh axnt. "I am Pruffsr ALbis Peeter Quintin alexndr Dumbledur!111111111" he crid.

It has terrible writing, but the commentary is hilarious! I was literally fighting autocorrect while typing up that sentence, and I had to count the number of 1s added. Yikes.

Anyway, please drop by a review! Guest that suggested Hey There Delilah by Train, I hope you liked it! It definitely matched up perfectly. Thanks!

Can we try to get up to 78 reviews? It would make my life if I could get up to 100 by the end of this FanFicton, but the end is coming close! I'm probably boring you out with all the weird and useless talk (which I love), so... bye!

Until next time,

Awesomeninja09 :)
