She hadn't woken up yet and it was already 11:30, so I was getting worried. I can't believe I let her do that. I mean, she is Athena's daughter, but charging a Hocus Bull? Even for Annabeth, that was risky. And look where that got her.

"Percy, you need to eat."

Thalia Grace was the daughter of Zeus, Annabeth's best friend and my other partner in crime. "I'm not hungry." She touches Annabeth's forehead. "Still burning. Has she woken up at all?" I shake my head. "No. Not since early this morning." I sigh. "Should I wake her up?" Thalia asks. "I guess. She needs to eat and drink, anyway." "I'll stay with her. You need to eat." I shake my head. I was not leaving her alone, but I knew Thalia was right. I hadn't ate in days. "No, I can't-!" "Not asking. Go." I sigh and walk towards the pavilion.

"Hey, Percy."

Clarisse La Rue, a daughter of Ares says. "Hey." I reply. "How's Annabeth?" I grab a banana. "She hasn't woken up since close to 5 this morning." I respond. "Don't worry. If anybody can recover from a bull hit, it's Annabeth." I sigh. "Chiron said that if she makes it through the night, by Friday, complications will arise." Clarisse hugs me, which was really surprising. "It's going to be okay. It may be a little different from here on out, but she's still your girlfriend. She will still love you. I know that for sure." I smile sadly. "Thanks, Clarisse." She nods. "You're welcome. Hey, why don't we go sword fight for a little bit? Thalia can handle Annabeth." I sigh. "I don't know." She pulls out her sword Laimer. "Percy, Thalia took care of Annabeth for a long time before they got to camp. It'll be fine." I bite my lip. "Okay, for a little bit." I better not regret this.
