The Last Olympian-

I threw down my scroll. "I knew we shouldn't have shown you the prophecy." My voice was angry and hurt. "All it did was scare you. You run away from things when you're scared."

He stared at me, completely stunned. "Me? Run away?" he asked.

I got right in his face. "Yes, you. You're a coward, Percy Jackson!"

We were nose to nose. My eyes were red from trying not to cry, and he realized that when I called him a coward, I wasn't talking about the prophecy.

"If you don't like our chances," I said, "maybe you should go on that vacation with Rachel."

"Annabeth-"

"If you don't like our company."

"That's not fair!"

I pushed past him and stormed toward the strawberry fields so he wouldn't see me cry. I hit the tetherball as I passed and sent it spinning angrily around the pole. Once I was well hidden in the strawberry patches, I let the tears I was holding back flow, and they ran down my face. I was so angry that I started singing:

You just keep tuggin, pushin, pullin
On my little heartstrings
Got me all tied up in knots
Anytime I see your face
Oh it brings out
It brings out the girl in me
Don't know just how ya did it
But ya got me real good
Hook, line and sinker
Like I knew you could
But you don't even notice
Boy I wish you would

I sighed and closed my eyes.

I can't help myself
I can't help but smile
Everytime I see your face
And we've never met
I bet you don't know my name
Am I outta my mind
I think that I might be goin crazy
Coz my heart is yours to have and hold or break
How'd you get to be so close
When you're so far away

Even though Percy was still here, the more I let him slip away, the more he slipped towards Rachel.

I think you might be close to perfect
Girls you know what I mean
He's got a face straight out
Of a magazine
Gotta pinch myself
To prove he aint a dream
Oh oh oh

I walked towards the woods and leaned against a tree, sighing.

I can't help myself
Now my secrets out
I can't help but smile
Everytime I see your face
And we've never met
I bet you don't know my name
Am I outta my mind
I think that I might be goin crazy
Coz my heart is yours to have and hold or break
How'd you get to be so close
When you're so far away

I wished he'd never met Rachel. I wished he was all mine.

I wish you were mine all mine
Mine all mine
I wish you were mine all mine
I wish you were mine

I'd known Percy for years, and nobody, not even Rachel, could change that.

I can't help but smile
Everytime I see your face
And we've never met
I bet you don't know my name
Am I outta my mind
I think that I might be goin crazy
Cuz my heart is yours to have and hold or break
How'd you get to be so close
When you're so far away
How'd you get to be so close
When you're so far away
