percabeth: forever and always

part 1

Emma POV: well that's it. she's married. annabeth is actually married! that's all I can think about as I sit at the top table at the hotel where the wedding reception is being held. I look around the room at all the guests. there's so many people! like the whole camp kind of crowd! and that's a big crowd. I look at the people on either side of me. I'm between Piper and Thalia who are both talking to the person on the other side of them. that's my least favorite thing about being at the top table. not being noticed much (a/n I was talked to a few times at my aunts wedding. I had a conversation with one bridesmaid about books) I sigh and think back to the ceremony. my feet hurt from the heels that I'm wearing. suddenly I have a flashback to the day I met annabeth

"Emma get up now!" my stepmother, Arabella, shrieks. I'm surprised that my window didn't break. I get out of bed and get ready for school. grabbing a slice of toast and my schoolbag I run outside and hope I wasn't caught.

"lovely wedding wasn't it?" I snap out of my thoughts and look at Piper

"yeah. I nearly cried at the 'I do' part. honestly I always cry at weddings" I say.

"yeah. me too" says Piper. we sit in awkward silence.
