Chapter 1:Meadow I long to see

Percy's POV:

"Percy, tell me what do you think of me?" Annabeth asked.

The two were lying down on the grass at camp staring into the night sky looking at the stars. Thinking amongst themselves.

"What d'you mean?" Percy asked intently.

"After all that's happened, I mean…the quests, going into the city, capture the flag, you coming, meeting me, us-

"Us, what do you mean "us"?

"I mean like our relationship? Do you think it's positive, negative what?"

"Well, when I first saw you, you looked like an angel. I convinced my self halfway I was still dreaming but truthfully, Wise girl, you sometimes do remind me of an angel,"

"Ow, what the hell was that for?" She punched me.

"For nothing," she laughed.

"What did you think about me?" I asked curiously.

"Well I had been wanting a quest and at first I thought you were going to be one of those half bloods that are like "Yippee, I'm a demigod check out what I can do, now what" but when we first played capture the flag I knew you were different than that."

The moon was yellow and full, harvest moon. As I remembered learning in class, from the tiny bit of education I'd got, considering I'd always been kicked out. But the truth was this had to be the happiest moment of my life. Annabeth always made me feel tingly, and she just made me feel better, relaxed. And to tell you the truth, Annabeth was not such a bad person I could imagine spending thirty years with her. Although sometimes it would be a pain. We both soon fell asleep and totally forgot about everything.

And instead of something weird happening my dream started off like this,

I was in a meadow running, just running no place I began or ended. Running, running as my life depended on it, but not from something in particular or fear, The run you run when you're in a race your ahead of everybody and your only a few feet away your heart is racing, you feel like your going die but at the same time can't wait to know you won and before you know it, you already have a trophy in your hands. Except I wasn't running alone. I was running with someone, it was only but a silhouette with a dash of blond on the top and a teeny-tiny bit of gray.

Annabeth

She had been running with me, wondering about it we probable have ran miles by now, but I didn't care. It felt good with the wind in my face, the smell of strawberries, the tickly feeling of the grass on your ankles till' suddenly it all blurred into total darkness.

I woke this time with a heavy feeling on my chest and a funny feeling on my arm. It was Annabeth again we'd spent the night on the ground. But who cared, this was the best moment of my life. She had her head rested on top of my chest with my arm around her and I felt the curls of her blond hair tickling my arm.

"Seaweed brain," Annabeth said wearily. "We slept here the whole night?"

She was now wide awake, but not panicky. "Yes we did"

But all she did was lay her head on my chest. Until I saw something almost like it was stalking us. It didn't move but it still watched us.

"Hey, Annabeth do you see that?"

"Yeah, that it's a camera," she was tired.

"CAMERA!" she was now awake, from her five second nap. "Well, do something!"

I used my water powers to spray water and damage the connection and wiring. "Well I wonder where that camera was from,"

I walked over to the camera and she sat up.

"Omygods, Annabeth,"

"What," she made her way over.

"Does this camera look familiar to you?"

"That's the camera from the tunnel of love; the gods are spying on us!" She was pissed off……A LOT.

"Why the Tartarus would they do that?" she said in disbelief.

We were both pretty pissed off but, I wasn't as much as her. But I did wonder what was going on up in Olympus.

12Olympians POV:

"Awe, they are SO adorable, my work is done" Aphrodite said turning towards her sisters and brothers.

"But what will this lead to?" Poseidon wondered.

"No daughter of mine will EVER date that Seaweed brain"

"Awe, she calls him that too," Aphrodite said.

"Like mother like daughter" Hephaestus interrupted.

"Oh, Athena don't be like that don't you want what's best for Annabeth, if she truly loves him, let her do what she will," Aphrodite still pleaded.

"They may look cute and all but she obviously has bad judge of character" Athena snapped.

"Let's not start" Zeus said breaking it up.

The gods and goddesses rewinded the whole tape and pause and played, with nonstop romance. They didn't even care in twenty years this would start a new generation.

"I will NOT have my Annabeth, be with that piece of kelp"

"That piece of kelp happens to be my son" Poseidon defended himself.

"That has no right to date my daughter"

"He has every right"

"She is MY Annabeth"

"Oh, like you care for her, just like all those other kids, you haven't paid attention to"

"At least she has any feelings for anybody"

"That has strong, POSITIVE, feelings for my son"

"Which means she obviously is not my daughter, because dating him would mean having NO WISDOM?"

The floor was shaking and the two kept going back and forth. It would never end.

Annabeth's POV:

I couldn't believe what the gods had done. I was so angry I could kill. So I left Percy to go back to his cabin and I went to my cabin.

"Hey, where were you?" A daughter of Athena said fixing up her area.

"Not in the mood, Adelaide"

I felt bad being so mean but I felt so used and betrayed, especially by my mother.

I heard a bell ring and it was time to resume training or have breakfast. But instead I walked towards Percy's cabin.

"Hey, Percy do you want to have breakfast, we need to talk?"

He was pacing back and forth, mumbling to himself which I found rather odd.

He said he didn't care and we headed down towards the pavilion. Breakfast was the only time we were allowed to not sit depending on our parents.

I sat down with my food and Percy did the same I had so much to tell him, but I didn't think I could with all these people. And someone was approaching,

"Hey is it true you guys are dating?" The Stoll brothers asked while laughing like hyenas.

"You better back off before I snap you like a twig!" I warned. I sure was glad Dionysus and Chiron were probably playing Pinochle or something.

"Hey, Seaweed brain can we talk somewhere else?"

"Hmm," I was barely paying attention when Annabeth took me grabbing me by my arm, and yikes it hurt. I had food on my shirt because she took off before I could even finish my breakfast. She took me where we slept last night.

"Percy, what is this?" She said in a rather mad tone.

"Uh…

"TELL ME!"

"It's where we hung out last night"

"Okay, good I'm not going mental-

"As far as you know" I interrupted.

"Did we see a camera?"

"Yes"

She started to cry and fell hard on the ground with a thump.

"Are you honestly okay?" I said worried.

She whined like a child but said:

"I feel so betrayed"

"It's okay, really, who cares'

"It is a big deal, Seaweed brain, and it must have not meant anything if all you could say is 'who cares'"

"I didn't mean it like that"

She started to leave, she went to her cabin.

"ANNABETH" I called for her.

MINUTES LATER(Percy's POV)

"What having problems with your girlfriend, haha" One of the Stoll brothers was saying.

He was really asking for it so yes ……………………………….….I gave it to him.

"DUDE" he yelled with his palm over his face.

"Oh, where are my manners, never hit a girl"

"Whoa, whoa Perce"

He ran off and I'm sure the whole camp would know in about an hour. And Grover was right behind me grabbing my shoulders.

"What happened man?"

I brought him over to my cabin and he chewed on my comforter waiting for the "deats".

"Dude, ya' gotta swear this is secret,"

"Sure, sure, tell me what happened"

I'm pretty sure I got Annabeth panic attack disease now I felt like exploding, throwing something, or unfortunately I couldn't, killing someone. I was going to need serious therapy. I probably qualified for rehab right about now. And Grover was still here.

"Come on, tell me what happened"

"I slept with Annabeth" I said quickly.

"You mean, slept, slept-

"NO!"

I told him everything and he told me to sleep everything off. But now, ever since that night, all I could think about was where this would take my relationship with Annabeth.

Annabeth's POV

I was dreaming about the day Percy would sleep with me…Forever. What was I sixteen; I had been waiting for that day like five years almost. Being mad wore off now I wondered, If I loved Percy, the ultimate question. I fell into a deep sleep and forgot everything until I woke up. Did I wake up?

"Ah-nuh-beth" a woman said I a British accent.

"Who are, (I swallowed) you?"

The mysterious woman pulled her red hair behind her shoulders and stiffened up.

"Aphrodite, goddess of love"

"And may I ask why are you haunting me in my dreams?"

"Haunting" she said loudly "Ha-ha, I'm helping you"

"How"

"That Percy fellow, you like him" she said rather straight forwardly.

"Well we are best friends, if that's what you mean,"

"No, no are you kidding me I mean like, like sweetheart. Pish-Posh best friends you've been waiting for him to say he loves you since you saw him"

"Were you spying o me, through that camera?"I was mad now.

"Yes, among the other eleven Olympians,"

"Well, that is rude, spying is RUDE"

"Not if you're me, let me emphasize it for you, goddess of LO-OVE"

"Still"

"Athena forbids you to even speak with that what do you call him kelp brain?"

"It's Seaweed brain, and it's still rude, even though my mother is a god it's mean to keep me from dating who I want. Not that I would date him"

"Right, right please you love him, and you would love to date him,"

"Does he like me, do you even know?"

"Of course I know darling, do I need to repeat myself again, goddess of-

"I KNOW" I secretly took back yelling at a goddess.

"Poseidon would rather Percy didn't date you either, but he did watch the tape and he thinks he should date you, but only to show Athena his son can do what he wants, not what she tells him"

"Well-

"Might as well just call yourselves Romeo and Juliet, until next time Ah-nuh-beth, if there is a next time" she interrupted me, and left with a laugh,

"Wait no, NO!"

"No what, Annabeth? What are you yelling about?"

It was Percy
