Hope you guys will enjoy this story! I came up with this original idea yesterday and needed to get it down! Enjoy!
Percy's POV
I sighed as I unpacked the last of my things from my cardboard boxes. I had moved in last week but I had been busy with work and didn't get a chance to finish. I went to the kitchen. This was a great apartment and had a great view.
I heard the doorbell and went to answer it. I opened the door was a pretty girl. She had a Californian look, athletic body, tanned skin and blonde hair. But the thing that broke it was her sparkling, grey eyes.
I smiled and said, "Hi." She gave me a breathtaking smile. "Hi, I'm Annabeth." She said, putting out her hand. I shook it and said, "Percy." She smiled. "Well I moved in next door earlier today and just need help moving my couch. Do you mind helping me?" She asked.
I smiled and said, "Sure." She opened her door and we went inside. "Where do you want it?" I asked. "There." She said, pointing to a spot. I helped her move it. "Thank you." She said, smiling and sighing.
"Would you like to go to this one cafe down the road? It's got the best hot chocolate ever?" I said, smiling. She thought about it for a bit. "Sure, why not." She said. She grabbed her phone and wallet and we made our way outthe door.
~Line Break~
We walked out the cafe and into the brisk evening air. We walked into the park. We walked in silence down the path. "Why are being nice? Are you trying to hook up with me?" She asked. I gave her a confused look and she chuckled.
"Well you helped me with my couch, asked me out to a cafe after knowing me for a few minutes and you payed for my hot chocolate. Why?" She asked. I chuckled and smiled. "It's called kindness. I figured you're not from here so decided to give you a warm welcoming." I said. She smiled and looked at me. "That's the nicest thing someone has ever done for me." She said.
I gave her a smile and we walked towards our apartments. When we were at our doors I said, "I want to get to know you. You're really nice." She smiled and got out her phone. She gestured for my phone and put her number in my phone. Se gave me hers and I put mine in hers.
She handed mine back and vica versa. "Night Percy." She said with a kind smile and closed her door. I smiled, knowing I would get to know her. What I never knew was that she would become so important to me one day.
