Firstly I want to thank everyone who has read my book. If you are a silent reader or someone who comments, I'm so grateful.

A special thanks to everyone who has commented, it really motivated me to finish this.

There were parts of the book I hated and parts that I loved. But though I had planned the story out from the start around chapter 11 I just went with what felt right and followed the plot in wide lines.

I thought that it would be fun to go through the story again chapter for chapter. Some fun facts and inside in my thoughts about it. 

Chapter 1 (Rebound Guy):

So I still suck at starting things. I really need to rewrite this one. It sucks in my opinion and the whole Luke and Annabeth thing I kind of ditched and remembered around chapter 8. First I had this whole Annabeth has a blog thing, but I also ditched that one. Because I forgot about it until chapter 6 and it didn't add anything to the story so yeah...

Also the whole Percy and Annabeth reunion thing was kind of ignored later and it was just an easy idea for me I think so that they had a connection right away.

Also I wrote this one around June, then I got insecure about it and didn't write the second chapter until August...

Chapter 2 (Fireworks):

I wrote this one after I read a couple of amazing fanfictions and I wanted to write one of my own so badly. I still think that the end is kind of cool. I love endings like that and it's still very much in my writing style.

Now that I've read it again I'm cringing so hard. It's so short!! Sorry you had to read that! Hope you liked the other ones. It gets better in my opinion.

Further I don't really have more to say about this one... it's short, it sucks, I really need to rewrite this.

Chapter 3 (Breakfast):

So it's actually funny. I felt really cool when I rewrote this one. I planned that Annabeth and Percy would break up in chapter 11 since I was really into the song 'The Scientist' so I wanted them to break up so that Percy could sing that song. The dumbest thing is however that I eventually only mentioned that Percy wrote the song and that it was on their album and Percy sang 'Let Her Go' in replacement. Because someone recommended it and it was such a better fit.

Chapter 3 also sucks I'm afraid. Like I said I made a parallel with this chapter and chapter 11 where they break up. It's like that they get together by the door and Percy says that to never do that (scarring him and thinking that she was going to break up/ reject him) by the door. And Annabeth says like: And that's how I found my best friend and now boyfriend Percy Jackson back. And in chapter 11 she's saying that she walked away from him and all, by that door. It was all supposed to be really cool and that I thought it through and all. And now that I think about it it's kind of sad that I'm explaining this.

Also someone pointed out that it was weird that they got together just like that and I was like: "Yeah, it is actually." So I rewrote it with Annabeth leaving to think.

Chapter 4 (Just Friends):

Surprise surprise this one also sucks. God, I'm really going to rewrite this stuff this weekend or so...

It's just really short and crappy and I had no inspiration. I wanted to develop Percy and Annabeth's relationship and the pressure of dating someone famous and all. Mission failed. I feel like I completely ignored that part of being famous and all. Though I was aware of it, I was not really on it. Which is the lamest excuse ever.

Chapter 5 (Somebody That I Used To Know):

Okay, so here happens something that is not rare with me. Especially in this story. I have these periods that I'm really into a song for a couple of days and that's the only song I listen to then. So a lot of times there were a couple of songs that I wanted in the story, I thought that they fitted into the story and/or I desperately wanted Percy, Jason and Nico to sing and play it.

So this one is also developing their relationship.

Chapter 6 (Riptide):

At this time I was really in love with the song 'Riptide'. And I was like: "Shit, Percy isn't doing anything like concerts or so. And at this point I was also really developing their relationship. And I felt that this chapter was so long, it has 1562. It' just so bad. Though here I was getting a little bit better. A little bit. Baby steps I guess. And I'm going to rewrite this.

The essential is: I wanted to develop Annabeth and Percy's relationship and for him to sing 'Riptide'.

Chapter 7 (The Interview):

This was another shit moment. I had thought about this whole backstory of Nico, Jason and Percy starting a band and all. You know if you read the story. But at this point I was the only one who was aware of this. So I thought that an interview would be a good way to do so.

So I don't really hate this chapter (A real shocker I know).

Chapter 8 (Luke):

And yet another shit moment. I mentioned earlier only chapter 1 I think that Annabeth broke up with her boyfriend and that it was a bad break up. So I suddenly realised that I needed to do something with that. And it is kind of a worser version of 'Best Friends' one of my one shots (Shameless self promotion? Hell yes!). And I wanted Percy to do an acoustic version of 'All You Need Is Love'. Because I was really into the Beatles at this time. (Hence the Beatles Weekend later on) And I thought that it would be really sweet for him to do that.

Chapter 9 (Birthday Girl):

At this point I couldn't wait for chapter 11.

I had built up the break up in my hate and was really excited for that part. But I also wanted to just have some simple - Percy being one of the best persons ever - moments. So that is this. I didn't really hate this one either. Oh and I was foreshadowing here. It's crazy. I was like: "Percy is going to give her tickets for Athens, but they are going to break up and Annabeth comes then suddenly and they can get back together then." It went a little bit different. But the essential message went through at least.

Chapter 10 (Beatles Weekend):

Again I was trying to foreshadow here. Oh boy.

I wanted Annabeth to be doubting everything. And I was still in love with the Beatles here. And I guess that I really wanted to make Percy suffer during this break up, though it wasn't his fault and he is so sweet, so I thought that it would be really sad if he had to sing love songs when he has his heart broken. I sound terrible.

Chapter 11 (Again):

Oh gosh, I literally named it 'Again'. The whole parallel thing I tried... though I secretly think that it is kind of good.

But the chapter... the chapter I waited so long for to write. I had it built up in my head as perfectly. And it isn't good. It kind of sucks. But what surprised me the most was that some people got really mad. I really hadn't seen that one coming. Maybe I'm too naive or something. But I thought that it would be an interesting point for the plot and the story. And I was also really into some one shots where they would break up and all. (I wrote those myself in my one shots) It's just a fun and interesting concept to write about I think. Like how would and should they react? What are the reasons? Is it logical? I don't think that Percy or Annabeth would ever cheat. That's just stupid. But this is not really about this.

You know what was the weirdest about the little hate that I got (Okay I had like three readers but still), I didn't even care that much. I was happy that they broke up. And I know I sound terrible again. But I wanted to go on with a plot where people were sadder. And I guess that I am into angst kind of. (Today someone commented that I was good at writing it so yeah... But not at this point, nor do I think that I am that good now in it. I just think that it is really interesting and is taking the story and the plot further.)

Chapter 12 (Yesterday):

I just really wanted to make Percy suffer I guess.

I'm a firm believer that Percy doesn't like to share things and wants to take care of people not the other way around. I think that it is canon, but if it wasn't I would still be a stan of this. So I wanted Percy to not tell about the break up initially and keep it a secret kind of. And I wanted him to be bitter and terrible looking the whole time.

Oh God, I'm the worst.

I love Percy by the way. He is my favourite character by far.

Chapter 13 (The Things We Used Share):

Again inspired by a song. This one was kind of fun to write.

The kiss felt kind of natural to me and them not getting back together. Besides that would be so weak and suck so bad. Them getting back together in no time when Annabeth literally broke both of their hearts and stomped extra hard on Percy's. Love Annabeth though.

Chapter 14 (Handling Things):

I wanted to show Annabeth's side and well... how she was handling things. I think that she would kind of stalk him. But not too bad. This one is just development.

Chapter 15 (A Beautiful World):

Okay so the same. I really loved (and still love) the songs 'I Dreamed A Dream' and 'A Beautiful World' so I wanted them in the story. And I felt that they both fitted well. Also I liked the bonding moments Percy had with Nico and Jason. I always wanted and thought that that was a few of the most important things in the story. And especially the one with Nico here. And foreshadowing (again) with Jason and Annabeth.

But the problem here was that I had already figured out that I wanted Annabeth and Percy to talk again in chapter 16 which I also had since chapter 13 I think, and I wanted to write that one really badly. Also I was already thinking of the idea of Jason and Percy fighting while on tour because of Annabeth. And I was going through my options, because they wouldn't ever date shortly or have a fling with Percy and all.

And also I was feeling that Percy needed to tell eventually that he and Annabeth broke up. Eventually he would have to and I thought that this chapter would be a good one to do so.

Chapter 16 (Time Flies):

So the awaited chapter once again.

I liked this one actually. I was kind of scared of people getting mad again at them not getting together, but it was only positive and people agreeing with me. I mean it would have been so weak of Percy if he just runs back to Annabeth at the moment when she wants it. They both needed to want it and it would be kind of weird if he just sang a song about letting her go and then getting back together with her.

Chapter 17 (Nothing Left To Say Now):

Well this one is really short. But I secretly love this one. I came up with the paragraph where Jason calls Percy a coward at like almost 1 am. I was typing very slowly not to wake anybody up and I was so excited that I thought of this.

I'm only not really happy with that. It is kind of short. And I don't know what you think but I didn't see Percy like physically attacking Jason? I don't really think that he is a violent guy. Well of course besides the monster killing but in a mortal AU I don't really think that he fights a lot.

Chapter 18 (La Vie En Rose):

Again I love the song and I liked writing the flashback of Percy and Annabeth happy together. And it would be so cute; Percy teaches Annabeth and them singing together. Right?

Besides Nico standing between Percy and Jason and kind of coming to Annabeth to kind of shame her? I don't know I just thought that that is something Nico would do.

And I was kind of getting fed up with the depressing and Percy and Annabeth not talking stuff. And I don't think that they can go on without each other for so long. And it would be a natural process of them talking and falling in love again, well they still loved each other, and eventually getting back together.

Chapter 19 (Bad Romance):

I really liked Bad Romance at this time. What a surprise.

I read it back and I sound like such a dick right now for liking my own writing, but I laughed at Percy and Jason fighting. And Nico trying to keep things together. And the hug ritual. It was kind of nice I think. Compared to my earlier stuff it's weird that it's from the same story. I'm not saying that this is very good or something, I don't think that I'm that good of a writer, but the earlier chapters were really bad. Like really really bad.

And the part where Percy and Jason are talking about their mother and father I'd imagined those lines for a while then so I was getting kind of frustrated when they didn't fit in perfectly but it kind of still works I guess?

Further, I had problems, again, with making their problems, background, backstories and goals clear. I had figured it out in my brain, but I was the only one who knew the information.

So not that bad of a chapter in my opinion.

Chapter 20 (Lunch):

Okay, so for this chapter I just wanted them talking. But it kind of escalated and from then I figured out that I couldn't not get them back together now. There wasn't any reason for them not to. So I had something like: "Hell yeah!" And so they did in the next chapter.

Chapter 21 (Head Over Feet):

Again I liked this song that they covered on Glee and this was an inspiration for this chapter. It's actually kind of like one of my one shots, 'All Out Of Love' I think.

I was just glad that they got together. Firstly, I wanted them to get back together in Athens, but at the moment I thought that now would be better. And more fitting. It's really short and cheesy, but I kind of love cheesy so yeah...

Chapter 22 (Athens):

Again I really loved 'Against All Odds' and thought that it would be fitting. So I wrote Will into the hospital for this. And to be honest, it was kind of worth it.

Asides from that I like this one a bit more. It's longer, famous stuff (because that is what the story is called after all), a kind of quote from the Last Olympian. And Annabeth and Percy bonding again and she coming to Athens after all. One thing that I thought about last is that Percy has really good eyes. Everytime he spots her in the crowd. There are a lot of people sitting there and he always sees her, even when she isn't supposed to see her. So that is kind of unrealistic but I can live with myself for it.

Chapter 23 (Take A Chance On Me):

I decided that I was not going to do an epilogue, maybe later I will do it. But at the time I didn't really feel like it. I liked the idea of an open ending and closing the story. I seriously did research on Athens, maybe a fun fact. And again I just liked the songs.

I didn't hate this one either. It's not my best, but also not the worst.

Okay so that's it. Hope somebody likes this. I liked going through the chapters again and came to the conclusion that I really need to rewrite some stuff.

Have a wonderful day and life in general. Thanks for all your support. Even just reading it all the way up here. The comments mean so much to me! Thank you all so much! I'm forever grateful!
