It all started with a proposal

The big day:part 2

"No, don't." An out of breath voice shouted from behind me. Thalia and Piper quickly sprinted to the door and closed them before Percy could see me. He came back! Where had he been? Who was he with?

Percy's POV
*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"Where the hell have you been?" Thalia screamed at me
"Kelli tried to kill me. I battled her to the death, far away from the guests and Annabeth, so that they would be safe. I think I broke a rib, but it's fine. Then I ran all the way back here so you wouldn't think I was dead, which none of you seemed to think anyway, or that Annabeth wouldn't think I had stood her up which, by the way, I wouldn't do in a thousand years!" I said out of breath. Neither of them seemed to notice my ripped up suite, before I pointed it out.
"Percy?" I heard a muffled voice say. "Can you please put your head against the door?"
"Okay baby." I said, trying to make Annabeth a little less worried.
"I love you so much, and I would never let you slip away." She said, with sadness and love in her voice.
"I love you too, and you are the best thing that has ever happened to me, ever!" I said joyfully, and she giggled a tiny bit at the last part. I love it when Annabeth laughs. It's so sweet and innocent, it makes all my worries go away.
"You need a suite." She said stating the obvious.
"Yeah." And just at that moment, as if summoned by my words, Will Solangelo bounded down the corridor, still in flip flops and said "Dude, where have you been? You need a suit." He grabbed my arm and dragged me away, before I could say anything. I can't wait to put a ring on Annabeth's finger, and be with her forever!

I stood waiting at the alter, the boys at my side, and my best man Grover. Chiron was giving the ceremony, and joining us in holy matrimony!

The music started to play.and The guests rose.That's when I fell in love all over again. Annabeth floated down the isle like an angle. Her hair glowed in the sun light. The laurel on her head glistened so bright it was almost blinding. This is the girl that I was going to marry. I am such a lucky man!
She handed her bouquet to, an overly excited Thalia, then turned to face me. Her eyes sparkled as they started to fill with tears. A gust of wind gently swept through Annabeth's hair, also carrying the sent of the salty sea. My hands started to sweat, and I felt my entire body go stiff. What's happening? Am I nervous?
"Do you  Perseus Jackson take the Annabeth Chase to be you lawfully wedded wife?" Chiron said, and there was a deafening silence.
"I... I do." I stuttered.
"Then do you, Annabeth Chase take the, Perseus Jackson to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do!" She blurted out without any hesitation.
Chiron chuckled."by the power invested in me, I pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride."
Her touch was as soft as a feather, as our lips touched. I felt her leg lift off the floor behind her and I took that as my opportunity to lean her backwards to do the iconic passionate kiss. I could have lived in that moment, but as all ways, good things must come to an end.
We walked down the isle as people sprinkled us with petals. I can't believe I am married, and out of everyone in the world it is the Annabeth Chase.
