Authors Note: Well hello there again, I'm back with another story :D This is just going to be a little side story, because I'm planning on a HUGE story of a quest for our favorite couple Percabeth ;) I feel like it will become like over 30 chapters long, so you guys just wait and see. Anyway, hope you enjoy this one as much as you did my last story :) R&R

FYI I just love writing about how they get together in different ways :3 So that will be probably in every single story I write.

CHAPTER ONE

Percy POV

I was in my cabin, doing pretty much nothing. Every now and then I would take Riptide out of my pocket just to stare at it blankly, and put it back in my pocket. That cycle continued for about 2 hours, because my life is just that interesting. Now that the war was over, I had nothing to do. I took Riptide out just to think about the how many thousands of enemies that I have killed with it, and all that it has been through.

At last, I slammed my fist against my bed and got up. I was sure as Hades going to do something today, not just lie around like a potato doing nothing.

I sat up and went towards my door, but just when I was going to slam it open, it slammed into me first. As I was lying there on the floor, all of the motivation I had of doing something today went down the toilet. I guess even the world didn't want me to do anything.

But all of that suddenly changed when I saw that it was Annabeth who was there by the door. I immediately got up and starting blushing while she was laughing her ass off.

"Yeah, I totally meant for that to happen." I said, blinking away the black dots that I could see.

"I can see that." Annabeth said, smirking at me. Suddenly her smirk disappeared and she had an embarrassed look on her face. I looked at her questionably, and she pointed downwards towards me.

I looked down and noticed I was wearing nothing but boxers. This was basically my worst nightmare in real life. I quickly took my pants and shirt and put them on while Annabeth was starring intently at my door, trying to ignore me.

My face was burning as I put my pants on. "Well this day is just starting off just wonderfully." I thought sarcastically.

"All clear." I told her.

She turned back to me and breathed in slowly, trying to get her face back to the normal colour. Me on the other hand, already accepted the fact that my face would look like a cranberry for the rest of the day.

"So, breakfast?" Annabeth asked, nodding her head towards the dining pavilion.

"Sure." I answered, walking towards her.

As we were walking, I just couldn't keep my eyes off her. Yes, that's right, I have a slight crush on her. Me, the son of Poseidon crushing on Annabeth, a daughter of Athena. And I was the one that thought that Athena wouldn't be able to hate me more.

It didn't help that her hand kept brushing against mine, as if she was trying to tease me.

When we arrived to the dining pavilion, I went to go get me some food while Annabeth went off to her siblings that had already gotten food for her. I did the usual thing and offered some food to my dad, and went back to sit in my usual depressing one-man table.

Thankfully, Grover was there. He noticed me and came over to me and sat down.

"Sup Perce, everything OK?" Grover asked as he looked at me uneasily.

"Yeah, why?"

"Well, you're just giving off...this strange kind of aura." He said, still looking at me, as if I might've killed an enchilada recently.

"No, I'm fine." I said, rolling my eyes and looked over at Annabeth. She was there, just casually eating and talking with her siblings.

Grover looked over at where I was looking.

"Ah, I see now what it is." He said, with a slight smirk on his face.

"I have no idea what you are talking about." I lied. But I have about as much acting skills as a turkey, so I guess he saw right through me.

"Yeah, I don't know, maybe Annabeth?" He said laughing at my lying abilities. Meanie.

"What ever, instead of making fun of me, give me some advice on how to get her to like me back." I said, being straightforward.

"Well genius, flirt maybe?" he said raising an eyebrow.

"I can't flirt for shit." I said, looking down at the ground ashamed.

"Anyone can, you just have to act confident around her."

"Yeah, I don't know if you noticed, but my acting skills aren't the greatest."

"Just try."

I sighed in defeat. No way I'm getting out of this now that I brought the G-man into this.

"And anyway, this huge party is coming up shortly, maybe you could try something there." He said, giving me a pat on the back.

"Yeah, I guess we just got to wait and see." I said as I looked over to Annabeth for the hundredth time today.

Annabeth POV

At the corner of my eye, I saw Seaweed Brain staring at me again. He had been doing that quite often today. I looked over back at him and smiled and gave a little wave. He blushed and waved a bit back before shoving his face back into his plate. Grover smirked at him and said to him something that sounded like "Way to be confident." I had no idea what that was about, so I just ignored it.

I rolled my eyes and smiled at him. Cute little Seaweed Brain making a fool out of himself again. Wait, cute? I meant stupid. Stupid little Seaweed Brain. Yeah that sounds better.

One of my siblings poked me on the shoulder.

"Annabeth back to earth." She said in a teasing voice.

"What?"

"You have been staring at the table cloth for a while, everything OK?"

"Um, yeah, I'm fine." I said while taking a bite out of my pizza.

"So got a date for that big party coming up? That Percy guy seems nice." She said winking at me. I blushed and turned away.

"No, I don't have a date yet, and I doubt it will be him." I said with my face burning.

"Aw, shame. Cause he has been staring at you again for the past five minutes. Either he likes you, or you have yourself a stalker." She said laughing.

"He's not a stalker!"

"Then he likes you." She said smirking. Crap, didn't think that one through. Surprising, huh?

I kept quite, not feeling like talking anymore. At the same time I saw Percy get up and leave.

I got up too and said bye to my siblings, and went out of the dining pavilion. I needed a bit of time.

~~~~~~ 20 minutes later ~~~~~~~

Did he like me? The thought of that scared me. I'm not going to lie, I like him. A bit more than the usual friends. But I could never picture myself with a boyfriend, but with Percy, somehow I manage to.

I shook my head. I'll get back to this later, I'm just going to go train to get my mind off of this.

I went towards the arena and took out my dagger as I entered. And when I looked in I stopped dead in my tracks. I just stared, not daring to move a muscle. Because right in front of my eyes was of the most jaw dropping moment in the history of...um... jaw dropping moments...

Anyway, right infront of my eyes was Percy training,

Shirtless.
