The rest you properly already know. Me and Percy dated for quite some time before he finally had the guts to ask the question, seriously I was thinking of asking it myself. Anyway we've been happily married for over 2 years and are finally expecting our first baby. When I told Percy he was so happy. He would always talk to the baby every night telling him or her that "daddy and mommy love them" and would kiss my stomach.

When I finally had the baby we were both over the moon. We decided that we would call her Zoë Mineva chase Jackson.

"What happened next? How did you end up here?"

"Well...emm...Percy got a promotion at work...and he insisted we celebrate. So I left Zoë with her grandma, sally Jackson and we both headed out for a fun night together. Emm...on the way back we went to pick up Zoë. Percy was driving and...one minutes we're at the traffic lights and the all of a sudden a truck comes out of nowhere. We didn't see it until it was too late......it collided with our car and our car just kept tumbling over and over again. When we got to the hospital Percy was alright, I took most of the fall. They said that there was too much damage and I wouldn't have long left. I woke up though....i woke up and saw Percy sat on the chair crying his eyes out. It hurt to see him like that. I didn't want to cause him pain.

"Annabeth don't worry you're going to be alright. You're going to get out of here in no time." He kept reassuring me.

"Percy don't lie to me"

"I'm not wisegirl" tears streaming down his face

"Tell me what the doctor's really said Percy. Please."

"They said...they said that the damage was too much. I'm sorry wisegirl I should have protected you"

"It's not your fault seaweed brain...take care of Zoë...tell her I love her every single day. And I'm sorry I can't be there for her."

"Annabeth please, please don't. You're going to be fine, you're a fighter you're going to make it."

"....You can't win every battle Percy. I love you. I love you so much. I'm sorry I can't be there, but I'll be watching over you both forever...I love you."

"I love you to wisegirl. Please don't leave me."

"..I...I'm...sorr" and my eyes closed forever.

"Annabeth. Annabeth wake up. ANNABETH!!"

I took a deep breath before saying "And that's how I'm up here in Elysium looking down at my husband and child every day."

"Wow that is one heck of a story" a child said

"Yeah it is"

"Do you miss them?" asked another child

"I miss them so much. I miss them every day. I just wish I can be with them again one last time"

"Don't worry Annabeth, you'll see them again"

I laughed "I know I will. One day."
