Hi guys! Basically this is full of Percabeth one-shots. Might include some other cute couples along the way. Please enjoy and don't hesitate to review!

Story 1: First Date

(Percy's POV)

"Perseus Jackson! If you're late for our date, I will judo-flip you in seconds! Consider yourself warned!" yelled an angry Annabeth. Percy hung up the phone and sighed. Great, Percy thought. Annabeth was angry. This is not what he needed on the night of his first date with Annabeth as a couple.

Grabbing his watch, Percy took one look of himself in the mirror. He hoped he looked well, considering he needed to make a good impression on Annabeth. Ever since that underwater kiss, Percy felt like it was his duty to be the best boyfriend ever. Of course, even if they weren't dating, making Annabeth upset can really ruin your life. Take if from Percy, he basically almost messed up his relationship with Annabeth by having Rachel Dare into the mix. Sure, Rachel was cool and all, but no one could be Annabeth.

Shaking his head, Percy decided to head downstairs and brace for the worst. He was supposed to be at the restaurant at 7, but it's 7:08 right now. Cursing under his breath, he needed to catch a ride fast. The restaurant was at least 15 minutes away, not including the traffic. Percy sat down on the bench, waiting for a cab, when Nico suddenly appeared.

"Hey! What're you doing here on this Friday night?" Nico asked.

"Nothing really, just waiting for a cab, so I can go to my date with Annabeth. How about you?" replied Percy, adding a hint of sarcasm in his reply to Nico.

Nico frowned, not understanding the sarcasm, and grinned. Percy frowned. What is Nico thinking of now? Nico looked nothing like he was when Percy found him with his sister Bianca at a school dance. (Long story) Now, he wore black clothes and studded shoes. In Percy's opinion, that was really not a good fashion statement.

"I could instantly make you arrive at the restaurant." said Nico, flashing Percy a devious smile. Oh no, Percy thought. Shadow traveling. Last time Nico did shadow traveling, Percy vowed to never do that again. And here he was again, in a much more important scenario. For Annabeth, Percy would do anything. But was he really up to shadow travel once again?

After minutes of deliberating to himself, Percy decided he would shadow travel, for love. Ugh, the things he did for Annabeth. Nico grinned as Percy says he's up to shadow travel. Nico replies with a casual, "excellent", and starts the shadow.

Closing his eyes, Percy jumps into the shadow.

(Annabeth's POV)

Annabeth couldn't believe it. Her boyfriend was going to be late on their first date as a couple. Of course, this was typical Percy. Why wouldn't he not disappoint her on one of their relationship milestones?

Tapping her newly painted nails on the table, Annabeth was getting a little impatient. It's already 7:25. How long does it take for a boy to get ready? Surely, it takes a girl longer to get ready, but with Percy, she could never know with him.

Grabbing her phone, Annabeth dials Percy's number. Surely he was on his way, right?
Ugh, voicemail, Annabeth thought. This was not the date she would've hoped of. She rather be eating out her feelings on low cal ice cream while watching The Notebook. Annabeth would love to see Ryan Gosling again on her TV again.

Standing up, Annabeth grabs her purse and heads back to the exit. Annabeth should've expected this from Percy. It was worth a shot, Annabeth started thinking miserably. She should've known this would happen. She should've listened to her mom. She should've not swooned over that Seaweed Beain. She should've-

"Wise girl, what're you doing out here, on this fine Friday evening?" said a familiar voice. Annabeth turns around and finds Percy, holding a bouquet of roses. She smiles, this is what she has been waiting for. She grabs the bouquet from Percy and kisses him on the cheek. Percy frowns.

"What's wrong?" Annabeth said, looking into his sea green eyes. He looked so innocent. Maybe she was being harsh on Percy...

"You missed the lips." said Percy, finally, after a moment for silence.

Annabeth thinks for a moment and grinned, "Nope, I don't think I missed."

Percy looks at Annabeth, like he had lost all of his boy dignity. Annabeth silently chuckles to herself. Well played, Annabeth, well played, she thought. To make things a little more interesting, she grabs Percy by his tie and teases him by nuzzling his nose. Percy looks at her eyes, hoping for Annabeth to kiss him. Annabeth let's go of the ties and walks into the restaurant.

"We'll see how the food is," Annabeth started, "and then we can see how it goes." Percy follows Annabeth on her every word and walks behind her. Annabeth started thinking, maybe this first date wasn't that bad at all...?
