Everything was set. Everything was perfect. Well atleast thats what I keep telling myself. For all i knew, i could have planned everything wrong and Percy would leave me. No. I couldn't put those thoughts in my head. This baby would have a father. Percy would never leave me like this. I can't believe that for even one second I thought about that. Well maybe... No.
I couldn't keep thinking about this, so I went to Piper. She was supposed to help me get ready for my date with Percy tonight. Right now, she had me dressed in a blue sundress that hid my baby bump. The girls all planned it. I am supposed to tell Percy tonight, but I don't know if I can. Wait... I have to. If Percy figures it out on his own, he might get mad at me for hiding it. I needed to tell him tonight. I was 3 moths along. Percy will notice any day now, and I can't have that. Yet I couldn't wait or runaway for 5 months or something. Percy needed to know ahead of time. He needed to prepare to become a father. Just like I needed to prepare to become a mother.
That thought would have brought me to tears, but I knew that if I smudged Pipers 'masterpiece' as she calls it, she would strangle me. "So have you thought of any names yet?" she asked me, trying to calm my nerves. I thought about her question. I haven't really thought about any names. I was planning on waiting until I told Percy. I wanted to talk to him about it. I could see us fighting over what we should name our baby. Whether we should honor our parents, and if so, which one. I laughed. Piper looked at me I shook my head. I didn't want to tell her 'No, but I can imagine me and my boyfriend strangling each other over our choices. Instead I said, "No. I want to wait and see what Percy wants before I think of anything. Besides, I don't know if it's a boy or a girl yet." She just shrugged and added a few finishing touches.
...
I met Percy outside of his cabin. He just thought that this was a regular old date. He didn't know that this date would change both of our lives in a humongous manner. He held out his hand and I took it shakily. 'Well,' I thought, 'It's now or never.'
