A/N: This is the last chapter! I want to thank everyone who reviewed and enjoys my work. And go on reading! Oh and last chapter, I have absolutely NO idea why the whole story is bold. I looked into it and yeah… Anyways enjoy.
Eliza's POV:
The dragon touched down on the ground and I slipped of Peleus's back. The medics rushed forwards and the legendary Percy Jackson and Annabeth Jackson came towards their son. Percy reached up to his daughter as Annabeth's hands fluttered over her son who was being taken up to Big house, on a stretcher. I watched Charles be taken away sadly. He was discolored, a bit pale, and his wounds were open, now bleeding quickly.
Percy cradled Silena's head to his chest and looked around frantically. Silena had started bawling and clutched fistfuls of her fathers shirt.
"Eliza." I walked over to him, not noticing the tears streaming down my cheeks until I hiccupped. I wiped them away and approached Percy and Silena.
"Yes s-sir?" I asked.
"Tell me what happened." Percy demanded, stroking Silena's hair. The legendary heroes eyes were just like everyone says. As green as the sea, almost like Charles's but had a larger spark of passion in them. You can also see the hurt in his eyes, like they have seen this situation before.
"Silena and I went to go get him from the bathroom we were hiding in and-" He coaxed me for the rest of the story. "And he wasn't there. There was an elephant tooth that opened a part of the labyrinth… A-and he was in this chamber with a few monks and… Oh Gods there was so much blood!" I broke down into tears. Percy gave me an empathetic look and put his hand on my shoulder. I had to finish the story for him. For Charles.
"They were stirring a concoction of some sort and needed human blood and dragon scales. Charles-he was the victim and then he used the last of his energy from th-the nectar and ambrosia to slay the big monster and… Is he going to be alright?" I asked, desperate for an answer.
"I-I don't know." Percy stumbled. Grabbing Silena's hand and my shoulder, he led us to the big house. Annabeth burst out of the door before I could say anything more. Percy let go of us and ran to his love.
"Annabeth, is he-?" She broke down in his arms on the porch steps and soaked his shirt. Usually that isn't a good sign.
I fell to my knees. I could loose him. He was my best friend. I… I loved him. He could make me laugh, smile, cry and made me feel like I could rule the world with him at my side. There was no way I was going to believe an over bearing mother, I had to see for myself.
Silena and I ran forwards, but in different directions. Silena into her shaking mother's arms, and I in the big house, my hand clapped over my mouth.
A few medics stood outside the door that I assumed was Charles room.
"Is Charles g-gon-" I asked James, who was stroking his chin, his girlfriend Emily looking in the room by the small window planted in the door.
"No, he is fine." Emily came and hugged me. Relief washed over me and I ran to the small window.
Charles was laying on the bed, a thick blood stained bandage wrapped around his middle. A his face and arms were cleaned of blood and he looked peaceful, despite the slight twitches he had when moving an inch. He slept quietly, his chest rising and falling better than in the Labyrinth. It killed me to see him in that condition.
Someone opened the front door and I saw Percy bring a sobbing Annabeth to the couch in the front room and Silena held his hand as they made their way to me.
"My boy. My son." Percy muttered and opened the door. Silena went in and I left the family to have a moment. When Annabeth regained herself, she walked down the hall, took a big breath, and went in. She came out moments later.
"Eliza, can you find Bianca?" she asked, rubbing her red nose, and puffy eyes. I said yes, and she shut the door.
I ran my hands through my hair and walked out the door. The Aphrodite child was sitting on the porch with Bianca, playing Pick up sticks.
"Bianca, come here sweetheart." She popped up and grabbed my hands. I told the Aphrodite child thanks and led her to her older brother's room.
"See ya later, Eliza!" She said in her cute voice as she ran into the room.
I waited for the remaining time outside, slumping on the bench. A squeal came from the room and I ran up to the window. I saw Annabeth and Percy brushing Charles hair, with giant smiles. Charles's green eyes scanned the room and I smiled that he was awake.
His eyes connected with me and he grinned. I waved a hand at him but then his attention was taken by Annabeth, who was halfway between celebrating and beginning a rant about rashness or something of that sort.
I waited about fifteen minutes for a chance to see Charles.
The family filed out of the room, giving me smiles, Bianca's the biggest of all of them, skipping along beside Annabeth's hip.
"Charles has been asking for you since he woke." Silena said, giving me seducing eyebrows.
"Thank you." I ran inside and closed the door.
"Eliza." Charles croaked.
"Charles." I ran to his bedside and took his hand. "How do you feel?"
"Like a picture." He tried in a British accent.
"You suck, Washington." I laughed.
"Wait, what?" He asked. I smoothed the hair on his head.
"Well, first off, that English accent is the worst I have heard in my life, and second for scaring me dead." I told him.
"Eliza, they jumped me. I'm sorry. I didn't have time to-" I cut him off. Leading with mouth, I kissed him. Right on the lips. Honestly, it was my first, and I was glad to share it with him.
"I'm just glad you are here. Alive." I pulled back and saw him blush from head to toe.
"Eliza, that was…" I smiled, happy that I did that. "What does that make us now?" he asked, still dazed.
"I don't know. I don't know, Washington."
