Disclamer: I do not own PJO.
I swallowed my fear, and stepped out of the shadows to face him; the reason I was going crazy. "Look," I started shakily. I could see his jaw tighten as I spoke. 'Oh God, what am I doing!' I thought to myself before continuing
"I-I don't know what you are doing to me, or what I'm doing now, but I… I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't think …" I trailed off. "All I know is that right now, I just want to be with you… Please." My eyes brimmed with fresh tears, threatening to fall. "I don't care. I don't care that you're sick, or that we won't be together forever, I don't care. And I know that one day you will be gone, but I want to be there for you for the rest of your life while you are still here." I finished.
I watched silently as he clenched and un-clenched his hands as if he were holding himself back from something... 'Yeah Annabeth, he's probably trying not to punch you' I thought sadly. He sighed quietly, and shook his head slightly, oddly looking like he was arguing with himself. I was brought out of my thoughts as he strode towards me, a determined look on his face. He stopped right in front of me, and his beautiful sea green eyes locked with my dull grey eyes.
He slowly raised his hand and brushed a lone tear off my cheek with his thumb and cupped my head in his hands. He leaned forward and kissed me. The kiss was unlike any I'd had before. It was filled with both of our emotions-those hidden and unseen.
I smiled and he rested his forehead on mine. "I love you Annabeth." he whispered. "I love you too Percy" I replied.
Well? did you like it?no? yes?
