Percy (POV):
University was a pain.
But finally, we graduated. Yep. I said WE. Me and Annabeth. I'm pretty surprised I passed university myself...being dyslexic and all. It's been a week and Annabeth is already crazy about her new job as an architech.
After awhile, I realized something. I was in love with Annabeth. REALLY in love.
Since were still boyfriend and girlfriend, but we decided to ake our relationship to the next level.
We moved out of my mom's apartment, and moved...into the apartment next to her. It was all we could afford anyway.
I have this crazy idea in my head, but...
ANYWAY, it was a perfect spring morning. Annabeth was leaving to work. Nico was visiting, playing Call of Duty as Annabeth packed her blueprints. I openned the door for her.
"Bye, guys!" Annabeth called, still fumbling with her bags. She left in a hurry, kissing me on the cheek. She waved goodbye, and headed towards the elevator. A small lightbulb clicked on top of my head.
"Hey Nico, stay here, okay?" I said. That was a dumb question. The kid was 16. Nico nodded, his eyes glued to the TV screen. I decided to visit someone: Paul. I trudged to my mom's apartment. I stopped every yard. This was a crazy idea. No, I shouldn't do it. But a voice inside my head cried out, "If you love Annabeth, DO IT!!!!" I walked faster. I really did love Annabeth. She meant the world to me. Without her, my world will turn black.
As I stepped into my mom's apartment, my mom ran over and hugged the breath out of me.
"Oh, Percy! I missed you so much!" My mom sighed.
"Er...mom? I lived right next to you..." I smirked. Paul smiled at me as soon as he came to the living room.
"Percy!" Paul shook hands with me.
"Paul...can I uh, talk to you?" I asked, glaring at my mom. "Privately."
My mom winked and left the room. We sat on the sofa alone.
"Paul..." I hesitated. This was a stupid idea. I couldn't believe I was saying this.
"What is it Percy?"
I took a deep breath. I took another one. I bit my lip, but then I blurted it out.
"I was thinking about proposing Annabeth."
