Cheers of victory erupted on the battlefield. Campers embraced and cried in relief and laid down their weapons. The wounded were carried away and cared for, and in the midst of the celebrating and mayhem, Annabeth met Percy's eyes across the rocky ground. Time seemed to slow and suddenly, it was only the two of them in silence.
"We did it," Percy breathed, holding Annabeth's hand gently, as if she might shatter.
She wrapped her arms around him with the same gentle apprehension; neither of them could really believe it was over. "We did it," she repeated.
Too soon, they were plunged back into the real world; there were still things to be done. Annabeth tore away from Percy for a brief moment, and turned to Rachel Dare, who was standing nearby. Her frizzy red hair was flying, her coat was burned in a million places, and her face was flushed, but she was smiling.
"Rachel."
"Annabeth."
"Now would be a really bad time to give us another prophecy."
Both girls managed a sincere— if slightly tense— laugh. "All right," Rachel said. "I won't give you all a prophecy… if you promise to marry that dork back there."
Annabeth turned to see that Rachel was pointing clearly to Percy, who was growing ever more red. He was shaking his head vehemently at Rachel, as if to say, "Don't tell her!". She turned back to Rachel and stuck out her hand. "Deal."
They shook on it, and as Rachel was walking away with a knowing smile, Annabeth turned toward her blushing boyfriend. The redness was only making his scratches and burns stand out more, but it looked as if he was more afraid of Annabeth than he was of dying.
"You were planning on proposing?"
Percy ran a hand through his hair nervously, then sheathed his sword, desperate to do something with his hands. He made a point of looking anywhere but at his girlfriend. It made Annabeth smile to know that even after all the years they'd spent together, she still had this effect on him. "Yeah, well…" he stammered. "I was… uh…" Finally, he threw up his hands. "I figured, why wait? You know? We might be dead tomorrow and I just—"
"I see. So were you going to get down on one knee, or what?"
Percy smiled and did as she asked, pulling out a ring from his pocket. How he'd managed to keep it safe through the battle, Annabeth had no idea. She held out her hand and Percy slipped the ring onto it with a small sigh of defeat. "You are so not making this easy for me."
Annabeth fought back tears as she remembered the first time he'd said that, how much easier things had been then. And how much more she loved him now. She threw herself into his arms— which wasn't easy in full armor— and leaned in to kiss him. "I am never ever going to make things easy for you, Seaweed Brain. Get used to it."
"We did it," Percy breathed, holding Annabeth's hand gently, as if she might shatter.

An Ending Worth Waiting For
Percy slid out the door and spotted Annabeth a little ways away leaning over the Argo II's rail. He walked toward her, noticing absent details like the fact that her hair was out of its usual ponytail and blowing freely in the breeze.
"Hey," he said coming up behind her. "Why aren't you inside partying with all the others?"
Annabeth glanced over her shoulder and shrugged. Her hands fiddled with the beads on her necklace. "I don't know. Just needed to think I guess."
Percy shook his head. "We win a war and you want to sit out here and think." It was just so Annabeth.
She turned and punched him in the shoulder. "Shut up, Seaweed Brain."

Everyone's fightingthe giants, the gods, both camps, monstersand she finds him on the ground, crumpled and bloody. Annabeth skids to a halt. She doesn't want to look at the huge gashes that cover his middle, but they're reallyreally hard not to notice.
His expression is pleading, and he takes a ragged breath. She already knows the gist of what he's going to say. "Annabeth, I want you to know I lo"
"Percy, shut up," she commands, and she begins stuffing squares of ambrosia into his mouth until the color returns to his face. Annabeth gives a whimpery, reliev

Annabeth forced that cold, shivery feeling out of her mind and gazed below them. A sea of purple t-shirts (much like the one Jason first wore) covered in battle armor awaited the crew of the Argo II. Two people wearing togas stood before the crowd. As they got closer, Annabeth could see that one of them had very dark hair, almost like
Suddenly, Annabeth's heart was pounding so against her chest so hard she thought her ribs would break.
