Percy POV
I looked at Nico sarcastically.
"Seriously?" I asked. He nodded, grinning. Grover gave me a bouquet of flowers and pushed me out the door.
I stumbled into a kid from the Ares cabin. He sneered at me while some girls from the Aphrodite cabin giggled. I scowled and started towards the Athena cabin.
I knocked on cabin six's door anxiously. It opened to a new camper, Tessa. She looked me up and down. I nodded hello.
"Uh, is Annabeth here?" I asked. She spotted my bouquet and smiled.
"Yes, one minute," she looked back, "Annabeth!"
"What?" I heard the reply.
"Someone's here to see you," Tessa said giggling.
Annabeth appeared smiling.
"Hey Seaweed Brain. What's up?" She said. I took a deep breath.
"Will you come with me for a walk?" I asked. I felt stupid saying this with Tessa watching. Annabeth nodded, walking over to me. I let her walk out first, and then I followed.
She looked at me when we were on the beach, where I was most comfortable.
"What do you need Percy? You look like you're going to pass out."
I looked down, and then at her.
"Annabeth Chase," I said, my cheeks bright red. "Will you come to my school dance?" I gave her the bouquet.
"Of course Seaweed Brain," she said happily. I sighed, just glad that it was over.
"Thanks," I said, feeling awkward. She shrugged, and then put her arms around me. My face got all hot.
"No, thank you," she replied.
Annabeth POV
I set down my book when Tessa yelled for me.
"What?" I yelled back.
"Someone's here to see you!" She said, followed by a giggle.
I walked to the door. Percy stood there, looking uncomfortable. His face turned red, and he looked at the floor.
"Will you come with me for a walk?" He asked stiffly. I nodded and walked out the door.
We walked along the beach for some time. When he stopped, I looked at him. He was really pale.
"What do you need Percy?" I asked. "You look like you're going to pass out."
He looked at the ground, kicking a small shell.
"Annabeth Chase," he said. I saw his face turn bright pink. "Will you come to my, uh, school dance?" He handed the flowers to me.
"Of course Seaweed Brain!" I exclaimed. He sighed softly.
"Thanks," he said, looking down again.
I wanted to hug him, but I didn't. The side that did, won. I shrugged. What the heck? I thought. I wrapped my arms around his waist and smiled.
"No, thank you," I said.
I walked back to my cabin, kind of bouncing. Tessa stared at me when I walked in. I knew she wanted details, but I ignored her. I walked back over to my book. I picked it up but couldn't read. I laid the book back down.
I needed to talk to someone. Sarah. My best friend. I went to the computer and opened my email. I clicked on 'Sarah' .
"Sarah-" I typed.
"I need a girls shopping day. Percy asked me to go to his school dance! Yes, the boy who I've been 'crushing on' in your opinion.
Love,
Annabeth"
I clicked send. A couple seconds later, an email popped up on my screen.
I opened it, and it said,
"Annie-
What are ya waiting for? Where are we meeting?
Love you,
Sarah"
I hit reply and wrote:
"How about the mall? We (I) need a dress.
Love you more,
Annabeth"
I sent it and waited. An email came up.
"Kay. See you there."
I closed the tab and grabbed my purse. Tessa looked at me.
"Going somewhere?" She asked. I nodded and walked out the door.
I skipped to the Big House. Mr. D and Chiron were sitting on the porch playing cards.
"Mr. D," I said. He looked at me. "Can I leave to go to the mall?" I asked.
He grumbled something about having to be responsible for all of the kids here. Then he nodded.
"I walked over to my yellow VW Bug, and started the engine.
