This is basically when Percy Leaves Amber, from Amber's point of view, as well as a little of the aftermath. 

Amber's point of view

I was waiting for Percy to arrive for our date, I had to admit I was a little worried, he'd been acting kind of weird ever since I told him I was pregnant at first I just thought he was probably worried about becoming a father, but lately I wasn't so sure, if that was all it was it had started to affect how he acted when we were together, I got the feeling his feelings hadn't changed but he still seemed less eager.

our kisses had become less heated, and we rarely had sex anymore, even though it wouldn't be a problem if we did since I was already pregnant so it's not like he could get me pregnant again, He didn't seem like the kind of guy that would leave me, but after how he'd been acting lately I couldn't help but worry that maybe he would. obviously I hoped that wouldn't happen, but nonetheless, the thought still wouldn't go away as I waited for Percy to arrive.

Honestly, I had been thinking about asking Percy what was wrong, and I would probably do it that night since I wanted to know why he'd been acting so different lately. I knew I loved him, and I would be really upset if he left me but I hoped that wouldn't happen, especially not then when I was pregnant, I wanted him to be there as I went through the pregnancy, and when our baby was born. Obviously, I hoped he would also help me raise our child. 

Even if he couldn't be here all the time I hoped he would at least help me, the idea of being a single mother was kind of frightening, and rather unappealing, not only because it would be hard but also because I didn't want to lose Percy, I knew I loved him too much, and if he left I would probably bawl my eyes out, not just because him leaving would really upset me, bat also because my hormones were all over the place due to my pregnancy. 

When Percy finally arrived the look on his face told me that something was definitely wrong. Worried about what his answer would be I asked, "Percy what's wrong?"

He was silent for a moment as he seemed to be struggling to force out his words, that made me even more worried about what his reply would be but I waited nervously until I heard him say, "I'm really sorry, but we have to stop seeing each other,"

At first, I wanted to deny that he'd actually said those words but I knew I hadn't heard him wrong, he'd said exactly what I'd hoped he wouldn't. I felt my eyes fill with tears but I didn't let them fall. Before I would do that there was one thing I wanted to know, I wanted to know why? why was he leaving me? was he going to help me at all or would I be taking care of our baby on my own? 

When I spoke I could hear how upset I was in my own voice since it trembled. I asked, "Why? Did I do something wrong? Don't you love me?" I was pretty sure that my last question hit him harder than the other two, but I'd had to ask it even though I'd been pretty sure that wasn't the reason for him ending our relationship. After I spoke I was pretty sure I saw tears fill his eyes, those gold eyes that had gotten my attention the moment I first saw them months ago. I wasn't sure though since it was kind of hard to tell though through the blur of my own tears.

As Percy replied to my question I could tell that he was also struggling to keep his voice level, due to that I was pretty sure he didn't really want to leave me, but then why did he think he had to? He'd said, "Amber I love you more than anything in the world, and it's nothing you did either, The reason we can't see each other  is for our child,"

After he'd said that he'd gently placed his hand on my slight baby bump, honestly it wasn't really noticeable yet unless you already knew that I was pregnant, or if someone did somehow notice they might just assume that I had put on a few extra pounds. For now, Percy and I were the only ones that knew the truth, and when he touched me my gaze drifted from his face to the hand that was gently touching my stomach as if I was a delicate ornament that could shatter at the slightest touch. 

I was shattering, but not in the same way glass would, it was just my heart that was breaking, knowing that I would most likely lose him. I was also still confused, why did he think he had to leave for our baby? as my heart was breaking and I fought off tears I managed to ask, "Why, a child should know it's father,"

That question also seemed to hit him pretty hard, and I got the feeling he wanted to stay and help me but for some reason, he thought he couldn't. Still struggling to keep his voice level he answered that question soon enough when he said, " I know, and eventually our child will know me, I wouldn't do this if it wasn't absolutely necessary, I am doing this to protect you both, because of what I am our child will be a demigod, demigods have a scent that monsters a drawn to and once they learn of their demigod heritage their scent is even stronger, 

I want both of you to be safe for as long as possible, this means that our child can't know the truth about me, it will find out the truth when it goes to Camp Half-Blood when it's older, that is a place where demigods are trained, they can go for the summer or year round, it is on Long Island," 

As he told me exactly where the summer camp for demigods was I now understood that he was trying to protect us from the greek monsters that I had read about but never really seen, although there had been a couple times that I'd seen strange things that the other people around me hadn't seemed to notice. It was now obvious that our child would eventually have to face them regardless, but Percy was trying to prevent it from happening too soon.

 I couldn't help but wonder that even if he couldn't stay with me was there some way he could send help? After he told me how to get to the camp he said, "Our child shouldn't have to go there until it's twelve or thirteen,"

another question occurred to me so I asked," If I can't tell our child the truth, what am I supposed to tell it when it asks about you?"

After a moment's thought, Percy replied seeming slightly amused despite our situation, "You could use the cover story my mom used on me way back when,"

He told me what it was before I said, "I just wish I didn't have to lie to our child,"

Percy sighed before replying, "I know, I don't like it either but there is no other way, I would stay if I could but I want you and our child to be safe for as long as possible, also the ancient laws prevent me from seeing our son or daughter until it goes to camp and learns of me,"

I knew we were both still rather upset, with tears still threatening to spill down our faces, I wished there was some way to convince Percy to change his mind and stay with me but I knew his mind was made up, he was determined to protect me and the baby even though I could tell he didn't really want to leave me. If we really would be in danger if he stayed I really couldn't blame him, but I was beginning to think that perhaps I should have listened to him when he had been trying to dissuade me from having sex with him that first night that we'd had it, since that night was the reason we were in this situation now. 

If I hadn't gotten pregnant we wouldn't be having this conversation right now, and Percy probably wouldn't be leaving me. Regardless we couldn't change that now so I just asked him the next question I had thought of. I said, "Even though you won't be here when our child is born you are still its father, so you deserve a say in what our child's name should be, what should I name our child?" 

I asked partially because he did deserve to give suggestions if he had any, and honestly, I hadn't really come up with any ideas myself, the only thing I'd thought of was my father's name, and obviously, that would only suit a boy and even if I did end up having a boy, it would probably end up being its middle name, not the first name. I knew I still had a while before I really had to decide on a name but I still wanted to know if Percy had any suggestions, sure there was no guarantee I would end up using them if he did but I still wanted to know.

When he told me the names he'd come up with I couldn't help but ask how he'd come up with them, I was slightly surprised when he told me they were all the names of friends he'd lost in the most recent war against the Titans, the fact that he wanted to honour his lost friends made me want to use one of his suggestions, especially since they were nice names, but I wasn't going to make the decision just yet, I knew I might still find a name that I liked more and I would probably find out the gender once I got to that stage in my pregnancy, and that would eliminate some options.

Percy finished by saying, "Please remember that I'm not doing this today to hurt you, nor am I doing it because I don't love you, I'm doing it to protect you,"

Tears were once again threatening to spill from my eyes after those words but what really broke me was when we shared one last kiss that felt different than all the others that had come before it, Percy and I both knew that this would be the last kiss we would share for a long time if not ever, and how we felt showed it that kiss since it wasn't as eager as the others, and it didn't last long before Percy turned away from me and left, once he was gone all that remained of him was his telltale sea scent that he always left behind.

I sat down hard on my couch as tears began to stream down my face, now that Percy was gone I couldn't hold them back any longer. I bawled like the baby that I would have in a few months time, as I thought about the fact that the man or more accurately god who I had fallen head over heels for had just left me. Honestly, when I thought about it I should have seen it coming, after all, I knew,  that in the myths gods rarely stayed with mortals unless they made them immortal first. I should have known that eventually, Percy would leave me. I was too caught up in my love for him to realise that though.

Most women in my situation would be pissed as hell, or would just bawl their eyes out. at that moment I fit more into the second category, I had managed to mostly keep my tears at bay until Percy and I shared one last sorrowful kiss and then he left me possibly for good. One reason why I'm not angry at him is that I know that he didn't want to leave me, he had no choice.

He left me mostly to protect me and our child, my pregnancy might be part of the reason why I'm crying so much. Honestly, I didn't blame him for leaving I knew that he just wanted to protect me and our child, and it was clearly written on his face that he wouldn't have left if he'd had a choice. Knowing that didn't stop the pain that was caused by his leaving, and I still couldn't help but miss him.

When I finally stopped crying I was sure my eyes were red, but there wasn't much I could do about that. I sighed thinking that it wouldn't be easy being a single mother, but I wasn't going to abort our child, nor would I put it up for adoption. I would raise our baby myself, and I would try and give it a decent childhood before it would find out the truth about Percy and have to deal with monsters and the rest of the mythological world.

I decided that as I raise our child, I would try and make sure that it won't blame Percy for leaving me, or for not being there to help us. I knew that even though I won't blame Percy there was a pretty good chance that our child might. I couldn't help but wonder if Percy would ever come back to me. since ours wasn't a typical breakup there was a chance that he might, and since one of his domains was loyalty part of me hoped that he would be different from what the other gods were in the myths and that maybe someday after our child knows about him maybe he would come back to me.

sighing sadly I placed a hand on my growing baby bump, and looking downward I said with more tears forming in my eyes, "Someday my child, someday you will know him."

I knew that there were various studies on whether babies could actually hear anyone when they are still in the womb, but I figured that even if they can I figured that since it was still early in my pregnancy the baby was still growing and probably wouldn't have heard me, but that didn't really matter to me.

I walked back to my bedroom as a fresh flow of tears started. I couldn't help but wonder what Percy was doing then was he crying like I was? probably, since I was pretty sure I saw tears in his eyes before he left but I wasn't sure. That night, thoughts of Percy and our unborn child continued to go through my head. it seemed that just when I would stop crying I would think of something that would cause a fresh flow of tears to start. after this went on for a little while, I eventually cried myself to sleep.
