Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Eagle's Path || a PJO/AC Crossover

Chapter 2: Leaving

A/N: Don't consider me to be a bad guy for this. I'm not trying to end Percabeth, I just want a good story for this. Sorry if I offended any big fans of Percabeth.
~~~~~~~~~~~~•~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Annabeth POV: I went over to the Poseidon cabin to see my Seaweed Brain, not just 'cause I wanted to be happy to see his handsome face again, and give him a kiss before heading to the Mess Hall. But because I had some terrible news to tell him, I never wanted any of this to happen, but it was something my dad had already discussed and planned about. Something that'll make me miss Percy.
I knocked on the door, enough to make him wake up. I liked him like that, he would mostly be late and tired in the morning, mostly because he's a Seaweed Brain, heck, he's my Seaweed Brain.
Percy came to the door, he was wearing his camp shirt form yesterday, and his blue pyjama pants. His clay bead necklace wasn't on, possibly on his nightstand. He smiled when he saw me, though he was still exhausted. "Morning Seaweed Brain" I greeted him, he rubbed his eyes, "morning to you too, Wise Girl" he replied.
"Just got up"? I asked.
"Yeah, still tired as always".
"Awww, is my Seaweed Brain still having bad dreams"? I teased.
"You know it. But this wasn't like anything I've dreamt, I-I can't talk about it right now. Maybe over at the Mess Hall later"?
I was afraid Percy would ask for something like this, I wouldn't know if I was going to be at the mess hall later, or possibly back there ever again. I didn't know what to tell Percy, it would break his heart. So how am I supposed to tell him the bad news? I sighed, and said "alright, but maybe I won't be there later". Percy had a confused look on his face, and asked "what do you mean"? My heart was thumping, "Percy, I-I just can't tell you, not right now. B-But meet me at Zeus's fist during dinner". He hesitated to answer. "But Annabeth, Wha-" "please" I cut him off. Gods, my body felt like it wanted to have a heart attack. He sighed, and said calmly "alright, I'll see you there". I smiled, "thanks" and I kissed him full on the lips, I loved these moments with him. I pulled back, and jogged off. "And by the way, breakfast is almost done, so you bette they your blue pancakes while you can" I last said to him before heading back to the Athena cabin.
***Timeskip***
The sun was setting down over the horizon, I sat here at the stone rocks that shaped a fist dedicated to my grandfather Zeus, though at one certain angle, mostly everybody secretly calls it, the "poop pile". Immature, all of them. I sat at what's supposed to be the thumb, waiting for Percy. I really had nothing to do anyways today. I was just sad inside that I didn't want to do anything, combat training, sculpture carving, not even working on my architecture ideas through Daedalus's laptop. And I barely ate at the Mess Hall. Ten minutes passed, I sighed in impatience, I hope Percy comes here soon. And I heard his voice, "I'm here Annabeth". I turned and saw him walking towards me. His wavy black hair shining in the sunlight, and his sea green eyes looking over me. I got up from the Boulder so fast that I tackled him with a hug and knocked him down on the soft green grass. We both smiled and laughed, "easy there, Wise Girl" he said, "it's just me". I'm sure I was blushing, because my face felt warm. "I know, it's just that... I'm just glad you're here". We got up from the ground, and sat down on the boulders. "I'm always here with you, no matter what" he told me, as he gave a kiss on my cheek. My smile started to fade, I looked down at the ground realizing that this might be the last time I feel a kiss from him. Percy noticed me doing so, and asked "what's wrong"? I looked back up into his eyes, and I couldn't bare to look away again. "Percy, I-I know you told me you'll always be with me, but the thing is..." I had trouble finding the words. "Yeah" he asked. I took a deep breath, and found the words, hoping not to break his heart. "My dad's finding more research for his other civil war novels, trying to find more information. So he got a deal to move to Florence, Italy". Percy managed a smile, "that's great for him, but why tell me this"? I stared deep into his eyes, and said "because I'm supposed to go with him". Percy's smile faded. "Wh-what"? I held back a tear. "I'm sorry Percy, but my dad told me that the family needs to go with him, that way we can stay together. And that includes me. Percy I swear I begged him not to let me go, but he said he already planned it and sent our stuff there. So it means I won't be able to see you or camp again". His face went bitter, his lip started to quiver, and I saw the sadness in his eyes. Until he then gave me a gentle hug, arms around my, and I heard him sniff back a tear. I felt exactly like how he is now, knowing that our relationship ends here, so I hugged him back. I couldn't help but feel my heart racing, beating faster, having the feeling of shame for leaving my boyfriend. I had a tear droplet running down my cheek, and I started to cry. "Oh gods... Percy...." I cried. We both didn't let go of each other, whether if we cried or not, we held on to each other, but, now, that's now over. We pulled back from each other, and we stared into each other's eyes, mine in his sea green ones, and his in my stormy grey eyes. He wiped away a tear from my face, and he sniffed back one. "I-I can't believe it, you're leaving? So I'll never see you again"? I didn't exactly know if we'd ever see each other again. "I don't know, but maybe we will again. One day. But for now, I'm going to leave as soon as my dad and stepmom arrive from San Francisco to pick me up. They'll arrive in about an hour. Besides, there's something I need to find out, something I found out about". Percy accepted that, "okay". "Don't worry for me Percy. I'll be fine along the way, and we might still talk to each other time to time with an I-M. And we might see each other again during holidays or special occasions". He nodded, and I spotted another tear running down his cheek. "Alright, but promise me you'll be safe out there". I couldn't promise him something like that, not even on the River Styx. I've already hurt him enough, so I replied, "okay, I promise". He smiled and we hugged again. Just then, the head of the Ares cabin, Clarisse, walked up from behind the tress, with mud and a few leaves on her face, as usual for a war demigod. "There you are princess, and prissy" "Percy" he corrected her.
"Whatever", this just reminded me of the first time these two met, by Clarisse nearly introducing his head to a toilet.
"Anyway, Chiron's looking for you Chase, he said that your dad and stepmom are here". I was a little surprised by this, but also sad. "Wait! They're here? But they were supposed to be here in an hour. I wanted to spend the last time with Percy". "Not my problem. You better leave now", then she walked away. I had that feeling of guilt again, this time in my stomach, like laughing to hard, but this was no laughing matter. I got up from the rock, and said "I'm sorry I have to go Percy. I-I'm so sorry". I then walked off down the trail towards the road. Before I could leave Percy, letting his heart down, he got up from the Boulder, and said "ANNABETH, wait"! I stopped and turned to see Percy coming towards me. "Can I at least walk with you for one last time"? I smiled, and though that this would be the last bonding moment for us. He let his hand out for me, and I took it. "Of course, Seaweed Brain". We walked off together towards the road for our final goodbyes. I felt another year coming down my cheek. I might not ever see Percy again in person again I thought to myself. I was about to leave my Seaweed Brain, and I was going to regret it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~•~~~~~~~~~~~~~Again, sorry if I have offended any Percabeth fans. I just wanted to add something to make the story interesting. And I apologize if I made any of you cry to this. I have even cried myself.
