Mortals Meet

Grace Williamson

Grace's POV:-
We all were sitting around Annabeth's room just you know having a sleep over when we heard a knock on the door. It was 2 am so that knock really startled us. Annabeth quickly speed out of the room and the rest of us followed her outside. When she opened the door she let out a gasp of shock. What we all saw scared us. Outside the door we saw a guy no more than our age with cuts running down his face and sweat tricking from everywhere and blood oozing out. She quickly dropped the pan she was holding and helped the dude get on the couch. He winced in pain the minute his back hit the couch. Just as Annabeth was about to get something to clean him up with he held her down touched her face with his hand and said ,"Wise Girl if I don't make it out of this I want you to move on. Okay. Promise me you will. "
"Percy Jackson you will not die on me. Do you get it."
"Yes ma'am. "
Okay to be stunned was an understatement I was gob smacked. So as Annabeth rushed out the guy with a smile on his face turned to us.
"This is awkward" said the guy. With a nervous chuckle.
Before the creepy silence killed us all Annabeth came running inside and started to patch the guy up. She took of his sweatshirt to clean the wounds. When she took his sweatshirt of a velvet box dropped out of it. Annabeth picked it up and looked at him questioningly.
"What?" he asked with an innocent gaze. Then he saw the box in her hand.
"Oh that... Well um I was going to do this on our date today but well since you found it. Wise Girl I love you so much you have no idea I'd die for you and I'll hold up the sky for you. This ring promises that I'm yours forever until you want me to be and I promise that one day I will replace that ring with a real ring and you might not get that real ring if you don't patch me up soon." He said wincing in pain.
"Right" Annabeth said with tears in her eyes. Once Percy was all done he fell into deep sleep. Then Annabeth finally turned toward us.
"Hi?" was her smart statement.
"Young lady you have a lot of explaining to do." with that I stormed off. Annabeth followed me and chuckled. The rest of the night was filled with how Percy and Annabeth got together. And might I admit it was a pretty good story.
