The Next Years of Our Lives 3

Annabeth's P.O.V.

 * Four and a half months into my pregnancy, I found out that we were having a baby girl. We were going to name her a normal name. We were going to live in the same cabin. And we were going to be happy. But that much was obvious. No matter what situation it was, I was always going to be happy with Percy. I felt a kick inside me and smiled. This was a life I had created with Percy. That was good.

Annabeth's P.O.V.

 * I was nine months pregnant with a baby girl. Percy had walked me to the Athena

cabin, and now he was helping me into my bed. He put one hand on my huge stomach that was larger than life, put his other hand on my back, and lowered me down into my bunk. He pulled the covers over me and kissed my forehead and left, saying "I love you, goodnight!" and patting the giant lump under the sheets that was my belly.


 * I was almost asleep when a horrible pain ripped through my stomach. I gasped

and cried out. Someone woke up. "Get--Percy!" I managed to scream through my clenched teeth.

Percy's P.O.V.

 * After Annabeth gave birth, there was pink baby girl with green eyes and blonde

hair in her arms. Poseidon and Athena were there. They appeared right after the end of her labor. It was one of the top-ten happiest days of my life. They were both so beautiful, Annabeth especially. She and I named the baby Nicole. Annabeth and Nicole moved into my cabin, and that was the start of the rest of our lives.

Annabeth's P.O.V.

 * I was overjoyed with the new addition to the family. Percy and I got a queen-size bed. And that was the start of the rest of our lives. Percy was the greatest thing that ever happened to me. I loved him more than anything. And nothing, nothing, was ever, ever, ever going to change that.
