Percy POV:
You know, life sucks right about now.
Oh, I am sorry, I did not see you there.
I guess I should explain myself.
My name is Percy Jackson, Savior of Olympus and all that jazz.
Now since I told you my name, you might already be thinking,
"Why is Percy complaining? The war is over. He should be happy now, right?"
Well, you're right, I should be happy.
The war with Gaia is over and we barley suffered any casualties.
The reason why I am so upset is because Annabeth and I have been kind of distant from each other. I know she isn't cheating on me, and I know we still love each other, it's just, I don't know. I need something to rekindle our relationship.
I was broken out of my thoughts by Grover coming up to me.
"Hey Perce. What are you doing?"
"Nothing much, man. Just thinking."
"About Annabeth?"
I was about to ask how in the world he new that, when I remembered the empathy link we shared. Grover could basically read my thoughts.
"Yeah, I just don't know what to do anymore, man." I said, hopping he might just have a solution for me.
I was wrong.
"Hey, man. If anyone knows how to fix your predicament with Annabeth, it's you."
"I guess you're right man." I said, defeated.
"Whatever. You coming to the sing along tonight? I heard the Apollo kids are going to have an open mike kind of thing. Who knows, it might be fun."
And with that, Grover just fixed my problems.
I shot up and sprinted towards my cabin. I had one thing on my mind and one thing only; Fix this Relationship.
4 hours later
"Okay, campers. Tonight we are going to let you guys take the stage. Any volunteers?" Chiron asked.
At first no raised their hands. So I thought it would be best if I just did it then instead of waiting.
I slowly stood up and said,
"Uh, yeah Chiron. I volunteer."
There were gasps of shock as I walked up to the stool and microphone, my guitar in hand.
As I sat down, I looked out to all of the campers watching me, and I almost threw up.
But then I saw the reason I was doing this, looking at me with her beautiful grey eyes, and my nerves steeled.
"Um, hi guys. This is a song I wrote because I couldn't find the words to express my feeling for someone."
Even though I had said "someone", everyone knew it was Annabeth. For a second, all eyes switched to her, and then back to me.
"Well, here goes nothing, I guess."
And with that, I raised my guitar and started to strum.
Oh her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
I hoped my voice was not too bad. Nobody seemed to have any complaints so far.
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
I started to grow more confident as people started to smile and I decided to go all or nothing.
Yeah,
I know, I know
When I compliment her
She wont believe me
It's so, it's so
Sad to think she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say
I was now looking directly at Annabeth who had a big smile on her face and an even bigger blush.
Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday
People started to laugh a little and Annabeth looked down and for a second I thought I had messed up. But then, she brought her head back up and she had a smile on her face and what looked like little tears in her eyes.
Oh you know, you know, you know
I'd never ask you to change
If perfect's what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking if you look okay
You know I'll say!
I was now standing, letting my confidence take over and watching as people were snapping and nodding their heads to the beat.
When I see your face (face)
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause girl you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are
And when you smile (smile)
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
'Cause girl you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are
I watched as Annabeth stood up with the crowd. She was keeping pace with the rhythm like every one else.
The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are (are)
I started to slow down because I was nearing the end. Annabeth had moved from her previous spot to a bout three feet in front of me. I could now vividly see the tears in her eyes. For a split second, I thought they were tears of sadness. But, with the smile on her face, they couldn't be anything other than tears of joy.
When I see your face (face)
There's not a thing that I would change
'Cause girl you're amazing (amazing)
Just the way you are
And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
'Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are, yeah
With that, I ended my song.
Everybody stood and cheered as well as clapped. I couldn't care about any of that though, because standing not a half a foot in front of me, was my Annabeth.
"Percy, did you right that song for me?" She asked, disbelief on her face.
"Um, yeah, I did. I felt like we were kind of drifting apart and I needed to something to stop that. Annabeth, you are the most important thing in the world to me. If I had some how managed to los-MMM."
She cut me off with a kiss.
"I love you so much, Seaweed Brain. Don't ever forget that."
"I love you too, Wise Girl. I love you too."
This is something I have wanted to do for a while.
Just a simple songfic.
This doesn't really mean anything.
I do not plan on going past this chapter.
But, I will give it a week, and depending on how much attention it gets, I will right more.
Sincerely,
PrimordialWolf
