Annabeth's POV.

As we wait for my result as in why I had been sick lately, I started at my mom. She gave me a friendly smile and I gave a nervous one back.

"You feeling okay?" She asked. I gave her a fake smile and nodded.

"Oh, yeah! Totally! Just fine, I doing very fine. How about you? Are you feeling fine. You're not? Oh, well, guess you should go home!" I nervously rambled off.

My mother just gave me a small smile.

"Are you sure you're feeling well?" She asked. I just nodded, not trusting my voice to speak. The doctor came into the room and took a seat in front of us.

"How are you both doing? Good?" He asked. My mother shook his hand.

"I am, but not my baby over here." She said. So funny how she mentioned baby. Sorry, this is not a laughing matter.

"Well I'm here to tell that Annabeth here is pregnant." The doctor said bluntly.

My mom's eyes widened at the mentioning of those words.

"EXCUSE ME?! ANNABETH HERE WOULDN'T EVER BE PREGNANT!" She yelled. She started to cry into her hands. I can't bear to see her cry.

Then I had an idea.

"Ha, we tricked you. I'm not actually pregnant!" I said as I laughed at her expression. I looked at the doctors and glared at him to go along with the plan.

"Oh we got you good." The doctor said. Mom started to breathe heavily while placing a hand on her heart.

"ANNABETH, DON'T EVER DO THAT TO ME AGAIN! You scared me to death!" She shouted. I gave her a smirk and put my coat on. I stood up and helped !y mom with her coat.

"Maybe we can go early Christmas shopping if you want." I said. She took a deep breath.

"Maybe that would help me calm down. I'm not paying for you by the way." She said.

"Hey, that's not fair." I said.

"Oh, yes it is." She said and walked out the door.

"Thank you." I said to the doctor.

"You're gonna have to tell her sooner or later." He said. I nodded and followed my mom out the door.

I'm screwed.

Percy's POV.

I called Annabeth about ten times and she never answered. I went over to her house and her siblings said that she wasn't there.

I feel like she was ignoring me. I don't know if I did something wrong or something. Lately we have been a little off. She had been acting weird lately. Also, she missed school. I know if something is wrong, she would tell me. Wouldn't she?
