Hi everybody!
So, I'm new here (obviously), and since I currently have no other ideas for fanfics,I'm open to be a beta or adopt stories from the following categories: Percy Jackson and the Olympians, The Kane Chronicles, Harry Potter, and the Gallagher Girls. And also for the sake of me being one person, I'm going to have to put the limit of stories I can take, which will be three. It will be on a first-come-first-serve basis, so comment as soon as you can!

I took a deep breath as I stared at my work. The two months I've had definitely didn't go to waste, but even I need a break from all the architecture. I turned of the radio and sighed in content when I heard the familiar beat of my favorite song.
Sparks fly
It's like electricity
I might die
When I forget how to breathe
You get closer, and there is no where
In this world I'd rather be
Time stops
And everything around me
Is frozen
And nothing matters but these
Few moments
When you've opened
My mind to things I've never seen
Why it's my favorite song? It's because I can relate to it.
When I first heard it, it was before I met Percy. I scoffed at the lyrics- even though I haven't kissed my crush, I didn't feel this feeling that the song was describing when he was close to me. Now, I know better. I know, a child of Athena being wronged by a song! But I've learned my lesson. Luke wasn't meant for me. The older I got, the more I recognized that the feeling I had for Luke wasn't romantic- more like a sibling love.
Then came along Seaweed Brain.
He turned my world upside down. From the first moment I saw him, collapsing on the porch, his messy black hair covering his closed eyes, I felt this... Connection, for a lack of a better word. It was more than what I felt with Luke. This feeling was more like electricity coursing through my veins, making my nerves tingle. It felt like I was in battle with a monster, my ADHD taking in multiple things at once in a small amount of time. Except I wasn't battling anything. Time slowed down for me, enough to take in the shocking green eyes before he collapsed, the light tan that covered his skin, the mess of charcoal hair mixed in with pieces of grass. I couldn't see Grover next to him.
I only saw him.
Cause when I'm kissing u my senses come alive
Almost like the puzzle piece I've been trying to find
Falls right into place
You're all that it takes
My doubts fade away when I'm kissing you
When I'm kissing u it all starts making sense
And all the questions I've been asking in my head
Like "Are you the one? Should I really trust?"
Crystal clear it becomes when I'm kissing you
In the Sea of Monsters, when he hugged me, I felt- perfect. He might have been awkwardly hugging me, but my face still fit in the crook of his neck, and he soothed me. If it were anyone else at camp, they probably would've shied away because this is common knowledge- Annabeth Chase doesn't easily cry. If something upset me enough for me to cry, then it's really bad. But Percy still hugged me, even though he probably knew that I would kick his butt if he teased me later, like I were any other person. Not someone who could beat him up, or someone that was a delicate china doll that was extra breakable. Just someone that was a friend. And that's what I love about him.
Past loves
They never got very far
Walls up
Make sure I guarded my heart
And I promised I wouldn't do this
Till I knew it was right for me
But no one
No guy that I've met before
Could make me
Feel so right and secure
And have you noticed, I lose my focus
And the world around me disappears
Even this part of the song is right. Didn't get very far with my crush on Luke, but then again, unrequited love can only go so far, huh? But even when I had the crush, I still thought that love was useless. It only causes pain. And that was why I was so cold to Percy when we first met- especially after he was claimed. I was afraid I was falling for him, a sea spawn! What would my mother think! But then, on the train, he pleaded to me with his puppy-dog eyes that if there was a way for our parents to work together, then wasn't there still a chance for them? And of course I just had to give in. His eyes weren't helping my resolve. He made me feel weak, yet strong at the same time. And I saw nothing but him during our conversation.

Then our first kiss- actually, our second kiss. Our first kiss was kinda ruined by the life-or-death situation we were in, though it still felt good, none the less. But our second kiss, we were actually able to enjoy, and it felt amazing. I felt like I was smarter than ever, with all the questions I answered. I was having doubts about who Percy was going to choose because of Rachel, but after that kiss, everything was clear. He chose me. And I wasn't about to let him go anytime soon.
I've never felt to nothing like this
You're making me open up
No point even trying to fight this
It almost feels like its love
Cause when I'm kissing you my senses come alive
It almost like the puzzle piece I've been trying to find
Falls right into place
You're all that it takes
My doubts fade away when I'm kissing you

The song ended, and I huffed in disappointment that the song ended. Just as I was about to turn back to my work, I heard someone clearing their throat.
"I thought only the Apollo kids sung."
I whipped around my chair to see Percy in his camp T-shirt and shorts, leaning against the cabin door with a slight smile on his face. I blushed. I didn't realize I was singing.
"Didn't hear you knock..?"
He smirked, "Obviously."
I scowled. He just walked in wrapped his arms around my waist, turning the chair so that his chin was on my shoulder and he was behind me, leaving me to look at my notes and graphs again.
"Well, seeing as you were singing, I'm guessing you were taking a break. Want to climb the lava wall with me?"
I smiled. "Best idea yet, Seaweed Brain."
He turned me around and helped me to my feet. Once I looked up, I was met by a kiss. Electricity flowed through my veins as I gripped his hair, holding him against me. Once we broke apart we started heading outside, but then Percy said,
" For the record, Wise Girl, you have a good singing voice. Race you to the wall!"
And he dashed off, while I stood still for a second, trying to understand what he said. But once his offer for competition sunk in, I immediately began racing toward the wall, screaming,
"Seaweed Brain! You are SO dead!"
Song used in this is "Kissin' U" by Miranda Cosgrove
