Annabeth's POV

'Hey, Seaweed Brain,' I called out as I saw Percy sitting on a rock near the Canoe Lake. His messy black hair was swept to one side looking like he had taken a seaside walk. His gorgeous sea green eyes looked up to me. His lips were curled up in a smirk that greeted me.

Okay, I was in love with Seaweed Brain. I know right.

'Hi, Wise girl. What're you doing here?' Percy asked, with an amused expression on his face.

'Just got bored of watching Malcolm and his girlfriend fight,' I replied with a sigh. 'I thought, I'll come here to think about the battle plans for Capture the flag.'

'Just the same old wise girl. Come on, let's talk about your strategy. I mean I'm on your team, too, right?' Percy said, grinning

'Right.' The next hour went by, I kept on talking about my plans but I'm sure he wasn't listening.

Finally I said, 'You even listening?'

'uh.. About that. No.. Yes. I mean I have a problem really. Can you help me out?' he said, not meeting my eyes.

'What problem seaweed brain?' I asked. What kind of problem would Percy Jackson have?

'I like a girl. I don't know how to tell her that I like her. She's pretty intimidating. And sometimes scary. But I love.. Her!' he blurted out.

My eyes twitched. Percy had a crush. I was literally heartbroken. Tears welled in my eyes. Why do I even expect him to like me. I mean, there are so many pretty girls in the camp. Get hold of yourself, Annabeth, I chided myself. Then, another thought passed through my head. Why was he even asking me? I'm no love guru.

'What's her name?' I asked, trying to keep my voice from cracking.

'I won't tell you. But she's beautiful and intelligent and great. She has been with me for really long. She understands me better than anyone. Gods, she's basically the perfect person created.' Percy said, a dreamy expression on his face.

He loves her so much, I thought, she must be lovely the way he describes her. Rachel? I shook my head, no can't be, I mean they don't know each other that long.

'Just go up to her an tell her, Seaweed brain. Whoever she is must be elated that she got you.' I replied, a small smile on my face. I guess, I can make him happy at least.

'Yeah? You wanna see her. She's perfect,' Percy said. He didn't even wait for my answer, he got hold of my hand and dragged me towards the lake.

'There,' he said, pointing at the lake's surface. 'The most important and beautiful girl in my life.'

Is this some joke, I thought. Percy likes a naiad?

Nevertheless, I looked at where he was pointing. In the crystal clear surface, I could see myself. It took a few minutes for realization to strike.

'Oh, Percy!' I turned back to him and pulled him closer to me. 'I love you, too, Seaweed Brain.' I muttered.

'That took a lot of time, Wise girl.' he said a little sternly, then his voice softened, 'I'm glad I have you.'

He leaned in and kissed me. My mind swirled with a zillion thoughts, but for once, I didn't stop to analyze them.
