Not much of a hero...

Chapter Two (Percy's POV)

Today was the day. I was finally going to do it. I was going to ask Annabeth Chase if she would marry me. I had the ring ready in a grey box with small ocean waves around the edges. Now, I just had to find her.

I decided to ask Thalia, who was staying in the Artemis Cabin, if she knew where Annabeth was.

I found her at the archery range, arguing with a couple of Apollo campers.

I tapped her shoulder. She turned around, looking very annoyed.

"Wha- Oh, it's you. What do you want?"

"Have you seen Annabeth? I need to ask her something."

"Last I saw her, she was heading down to the beach."

"Okay, thanks Thalia!" I ran off to the beach.

TIME SKIP TO THE BEACH

I went down to the beach, to be met with a horrible sight. Thomas was kissing someone. A blonde haired girl. Please don't be Annabeth. Please no. Anyone but her. I thought desperately.

She turned around, and I was met by the horrified face of my girlfriend.

"Percy! It's not what it looked like! I swear!"

"Do you swear on the River Styx?" I said quietly.

At this request, she remained silent.

"That's what I thought. And to think , I was going to propose to you."

I put the box in her hand. She opened the box, and gasped at how beautiful the ring was. But her gasp was short lived, as I rolled a wave to come out of the sea, and smack the box out of her hand. It plunged into the sea, never to be seen again.

Annabeth looked at me with tears streaming down her face, pleading with her eyes. I shook my head at her, then went to find Chiron.

Time skip to the Big House

I knocked on the door of Chiron's office. A faint "Come in" could be heard from the other side.

I opened the door with a look of devastation in my face.

"Percy?" His voice was filled with concern. "What's the matter?"

"Annabeth, " I croaked. "She cheated on me. With my brother. I saw them kissing down at the beach. Just as I was about to propose."

He looked at me, lost for words.

"I'm sorry for what happened, M'boy. But I was just about to come and look for you. The gods have summoned you to Olympus. We will talk of this when you get back. Is that okay?"

I nodded my head, and when I blinked, I was on Olympus.

I walked through Olympus, only stopping when I get to the throne room. I take a deep breath, then walk inside.
