"How the hell am I supposed to look him in the eye, knowing that I may have to see the light leave his eyes soon enough? Doesn't he have the right to know that he may never see his mother in a white dress, never have a chance to give her hand to Paul? Shouldn't he have a say in how he spends the last few months of his life?" Annabeth demanded.
"His sixteenth birthday is less than a year away, Chiron. It's nearly certain that he is the child of the prophecy!" She concluded, her voice cracking at the end.
Annabeth let the tears flow freely this time, the guilt of knowing too much heavy on her conscience.
*****
This tells the story behind Sally and Paul's wedding.
It is set just before the winter holidays after the Battle of the Labyrinth. The quest of 'The Sword of Summer' takes place simultaneously with this story. Stays true to the book as much as possible, with a lot of added details.
Second story among my series of short stories named 'Beyond the Books' but can be read as a standalone.

Indigo Eyes
I could give you a sob story about how tough Cressida Lynn's life has been, but you're not here for that. You're not here to hear about how terrible her mother treated her and how she only got her first birthday present at age nine or how no one outside her cabin liked her. No. You're here to hear about how her life changed the summer of her 12th birthday. The summer when Poseidon's son came crashing through the camp borders after he'd killed the Minotaur. You're here to hear about how they found the Lightning Thief. You're here to hear about how they ventured through the Sea of Monsters. You're here to hear about how they withstood the Titan's Curse. You're here to hear about how they fought in the Battle of the Labyrinth. You're here to hear about how they defended the Last Olympian. However, I must warn you that this journey is not for the faint-hearted for each quest is more treacherous than the last. And it is most certainly not for mortals. But, should you find yourself feeling brave, should you be a demigod in a past life, a present life or a future one, then I invite you to join me on this adventure. #1 in hades #1 in greekgodsandgoddesses #1 in lukecastellan #1 in titanwar #1 in dionysus #1 in pjofandom #4 in zeus #4 in seaofmonsters #9 in kronos #10 in labyrinth #12 in percyjacksonandtheolympians #17 in greekmythology #23 in annabethchase #36 in poseidon (Lightning Thief - Last Olympian) (Disclaimer: All rights go to the legendary Rick Riordan, I only own Cressida and any original scenes and dialogue I've written.)

No, she doesn't work at the architecture firm of her dreams, or any architecture firm, and she hasn't been in a steady relationship since she was a teenager.

He'll even buy the next round. ᴘᴇʀᴄʏ ɪꜱ ʀᴇɢʀᴇᴛꜰᴜʟ. Pining after a love from ten years ago does that to a guy. He's become a shell of the hero he once used to be. His fatal flaw has become his downfall. He's turning down job opportunities to care for his mother, spending his nights watching Wheel of Fortune, and eating leftover lasagna. Maybe a New Rome-style vacation is just what he needs to find himself again. ᴡɪʟʟ ɪꜱ ᴛʜʀɪᴠɪɴɢ.
