"Don't make me tell Mom!"
"What? That I took the last blue pancake? I'm so scared!"
"No. I saw you sneaking out last night. I bet you were going off to see that girl you like, Annabell?"
"It's Annabeth. But anyway you think mom would care? Annabeth saved my life many times; she is the reason I'm alive, and that you even have a big brother. Mom LOVES her."
"Then why did you sneak out? If Mom loves her so much, why were you being secretive about seeing her?"
"Because I was going to propose, and I knew that if Mom knew, she would get excited and accidentally tell Annabeth, ruining the surprise."
"You said you WERE going to propose, like you didn't actually... Why do I feel like there's more coming?" questioned Estelle.
"Because… there is, it seems as though we both had the same idea," replied Percy.
"She proposed to me," he clarified. "She said I took too long and she was tired of waiting."
