Annabeth's POV

Deep breaths, deep breaths. I kept repeating it over and over in my head but I couldn't stop freaking out. Today was the day I was finally going to marry Percy Jackson, today was the day I would finally become Annabeth Jackson. I was so I happy that I couldn't stop smiling.

"Annabeth, come on get up we have to get you ready the wedding starts in two hours", I heard Piper's voice from outside say.

"Okay be out in a second", I said slowly getting up. Since I knew I would end up changing into like a robe and sweatpants in the Aphrodite cabin I just didn't change.

"Ready to go" Katie said as I walked out of the Athena cabin.

"Yep", I replied.

"Hazel and Calypso will meet us at my cabin", Piper said as we walked towards the Aphrodite cabin.Once we were inside she said, "Give me your phone".

"Why", I said confused.

"So you don't try and call Percy", She said smirking at me.

"Ok?", I said slightly blushing. After giving her the phone I was directed to a chair for hair and make up.(Of course after being changed into a robe and yoga pants just as I suspected). After what felt like years of waiting they finally turned me around.

"Wow', we all said in unison. My eye shadow was natural with a little bit of silver sparkle and I was also wearing mascara. I had on simple pink lip gloss along with a little bit of blush. My hair was in an intricate braid that came around to the side of my head and ended flowing on my left shoulder. There were some turquoise flowers placed in different parts of the braid. (The colors of the wedding were turquoise and coral). All of my bridesmaids had simple natural make up and they were wearing a coral dress that flowed to their knees with a turquoise belt around the waist.

"You really do look beautiful" , I recognized that voice. It was the voice of my best friend, the girl who had said she couldn't come.

"Thalia", I said so happy I was almost crying, "you said you couldn't come."

"I wanted to surprise you. Still have that maid of honor dress waiting", She said hopefully.

"Of course, Piper could you go get it.", I said turning to her.

"Sure, be right back", She said walking towards the closet. After Thalia was dressed it was finally time for me to get dressed. Once I was dressed we added the gold bangles on both of my arms. I turned to look in the mirror.

"Oh my"

"You look so pretty"

"I think I'm gonna cry", These were all responses and reactions, others just gasped. I just sat there looking in the mirror realizing that in only a few minutes I would be marrying the love of my life.

" A daughter of Athena never looked more beautiful", said a new voice in the room. We all turned towards the door and there standing was someone I hadn't seen since after the giant war. Lady Athena.

"Mother" , I said still shocked she was here.

"Hello sweetheart", she said walking towards me and holding my hand." I know you are shocked to see me but Zeus decided all the gods should be able to see the wedding of the millenia as Aprodite calls it". I laughed a little when she said this.

"I will see you after the wedding honey", she said turning to leave.

"Annabeth are you ready', I turned to see Poseidon. He was walking me down the isle because even though my dad and I reconnected I never felt close enough for him to do this.
