Annabeth or Artemis? By Victorious4ever

Percy's POV

I am confused on who I love. Annabeth had left me for Nico and I was alone. I didn't know that Annabeth would come back crawling, but my strong emotions for her never disappeared. But oh, my new love is beautiful, talented, and bright. She is what I used to live for before this crisis happened. And by crisis I mean: me not knowing who to chose.

Annabeth and I had been friends from the beginning. Since that first quest we had together along with Grover, we had fallen in love. But unfortunately, Athena, Annabeth's mom, didn't approve of our relationship so we were broken up out of her mother's sheer hate of Poseidon, my father, and I guess she doesn't dislike Hades as much as my dad. It was the last day of camp when she told me we can no longer love one another and that Athena will curse us both if we should ever be back together, and I could see in her peircing gray eyes that she was broken. But with a stern face, she kissed me good-bye.

So this summer, the summer I was finally eighteen with a Ford Fusion as a gift from my second step dad Paul Blofis, I was ready for love and adventure. But as soon as I got to camp, I caught Annabeth and Nico kissing deeply by the new Hades cabin. Filled with rage I went up to him, punched him in the nose, and grabbed my bag filled of clothes, ambrosia, nectar, and money, and stormed out of the Camp Half-Blood borders. I wonder how Chiron will react to discover I was never coming back. EVER.

I just kept taking trains to random places untill I found myself to be in the country. There were forests and mountains but I was still so angry that I didn't care I was lost. I started into the forest but soon did I realize there was a girl in the water. Girl didn't fit the perspective, she was a woman. As crazy as this sounds, she was a familiar woman.

"Goddess Artemis?" I projected through the forest to the beautiful woman standing before me. She turned with her auburn braid neatly running down her spine. I wanted to run because she would probably blast me to pieces but I was to stunned at her beauty. She came torward me "Ah, Perceus Jackson. I was awaiting your presence." She sighed. "Uh….. Why exactly?" I said confused. "For whatever reason you came to my territory for I could sense your coming here and I almost shot you with my arrow." She giggled a little. Her laugh was enchanting. We stared for a moment and she looked down awkardly and said, "Come, are you not hungry?" In a daze I recited "Yes. But why did you decide to grow?". There was a long pause and she replied, "I wanted a change, is that so horrible?" Without thinking I spoke, " You look beautiful that way." She blushed with golden cheeks, "Wow, um thanks."
