Chapter 1
Annabeth
I was gripping Percy's waist for dear life. She and Percy were sleeping on the couch in his house since he spend his 16th birthday there with all our other friends, Thalia, Nico, Silena, Beckendorf, Travis, Connor, Grover, Juniper, Clarisse and Chris.
Last night was perfect. Percy, finally had the guts to tell me that he loves me. I, on the other side chickened out.
I opened my eyes and found myself on the edge of the couch. The couch wasn't that wide. Percy, already awake, was playing with my blonde hair. I looked up and smiled at him. He smiled back and kissed me.
"What was that for?" I grinned.
"For being so darn amazing." He replied, sitting down on the sofa. I pulled myself up, I kissed him. Just a peck, but it shocked him.
"And what was that for?" He asked looking me in the eye.
"For being such a Seaweed Brain!" I told him.
"Ha! But I'm your seaweed brain?"
"Fortunately yes!" I said. Starting to stand up, I saw Thalia holding hands with Nico on the other side of the room. I saw Percy took a picture of them. I always thought they would be perfect for each other. I mean they have such a lot in common, even Thalia told me that. Oh my gods, I sound like a daughter of Aphrodite. I shook that thought away. As I stood up, I saw Silena and Beckendorf by the T.V hugging each other. Silena had her head tucked between Beckendorf's chin and chest. On the left, I saw Grover and Juniper holding hands. Travis and Connor hugging like a baby by the front door. I laughed. Percy looked at me. I pointed at the two boys, Percy laughed with me. He got out the same camera and took a picture. I felt sorry for both of them. And last but not the least, I saw Clarisse and Chris huddled up together on the other sofa.
"We need to wake them all up soon and have breakfast. I'm hungry!" Percy said. Starting to wake up our friends.
"Well, we could all go out somewhere." I told him.
"That'll be a great idea!" shouted Percy from the other side of the room.
"Percy! Why do you have to wake me up while I was having an amazing dream! I hardly get them you know!" Thalia screamed at Percy.
"Well we all need to go soon. Aren't you hungry? It's nearly lunch time. Hey, I saw you holding hands with Nico, don't lie. I got evidence!" Percy teased, holding out the camera. Thalia blushed. She looked like a tomato now. And so does Nico.
"Give me that camera!" Both Nico and Thalia screamed at Percy the same time. They both blushed deeper. Thalia and Nico chased Percy around the house until we were all ready.
Nico and Thalia, now got the camera, started deleting their photos. "Hey! Don't delete the one that got Travis and Connor. I can print it out and stick it all around Camp." said Percy to both of them.
"Not funny Percy!" Travis and Connor both shouted at Percy.
"I'm only deleting the ones that got me and Nico in" said Thalia.
"Guys! Can we go now? I'm starving here!" Connor shouted. "Me too! I can get out of this house now. No offence Percy." said Travis.
"Okay, where do you guys want to go?" asked Percy. I went to his side and took his hand. He looked at me with one of his eyebrow rising. He smiled. I smiled back.
"Ooh! You two finally got each other!" Silena screamed. "That is so sweet! You two are such a sweet couple!"
"Okay Silena, no need to bug us." Percy said, slightly blushing.
"I know, Percy, you can treat us with cheeseburger!" shouted Thalia.
"Okay, whatever you guys say."
We walked out of the house and turned towards the garage. Since there's a lot of us, Chris brought his own car with him. So, Clarisse will be probably be with him and so is Silena and Beckendorf. Nico brought his car to, Thalia probably go with him and the Stoll brothers. That'll leave me, Grover and Juniper. Percy , already inside his car, nodded his head to say it's fine to come in.
We drove in silence. I can feel Percy looking at me. I blushed and looked to the window. Percy took my hand and squeezed it. I squeezed it back. It's so nice finally getting so close to him. I've waited nearly five years for him to ask me. I was nearly getting to the point that I was the one who's need to do the first move. I remember last night.
***Flashback***
We were watching a film when I saw Percy looking at me funny. It's like he wanted to say something to me but couldn't. 'Maybe I'll ask him later when we're alone.' I told myself.
Finally, the film ended and we were all tired. The others fell asleep where they were. Percy and I were the only ones left awake.
"So, did you like your party?" I asked him.
"Yeah it was great. I guess I can only be sixteen once." Percy replied.
"What do you want to do until we get tired?" I asked him again.
"Hmm, maybe we could play truth but only 20 questions?" said Percy.
"I don't know, possibly." I glared at him.
"Hey! It's only a suggestion." He stammered.
"Okay, let's play it then." I didn't really want to play but maybe just this once. I needed to ask him questions after all.
"Okay, I'll start" Percy said. "Hmm, do you have a crush on someone in this room?"
"Yes" I said. I can feel my face starting to go red. "My turn, well, do you have a crush on someone in this room?"
"Yes, but I don't think it's only a crush though. I got a very strong feeling about her." Percy started blushing, very deep red.
'Uh-oh, this can't be good. He likes someone else, not me. Don't even think of that Annabeth!' My face started to go red like Percy's.
"I guess it's my turn. When was the last time you ran away from your family or Camp?" asked Percy.
"Well, the last time I ran away from home was when I was seven, I don't think I ever ran away from Camp." I answered. "Okay, my turn, Why were you looking at me funny earlier when we were watching a film?"
"Hmm, I don't think I can tell you that. I'm too much of a seaweed brain." He said, his face started to go red again.
"It's a question. Please answer, I won't laugh or anything if it's stupid. I promise." I said.
"Well, I was just thinking that if I ever lose you again I will kill myself. Literally kill myself. I can't bare it if you get hurt or anything bad happens to you. So, I was just taking my time being with you. Because you my best friend. Well, not just any best friend." said Percy while looking into my eyes. His face started really going red.
I can feel my face heating up. "That was the very first time I heard you very serious about someone." Looking back at his eyes, I can see there's something more. "But seriously? Killing yourself isn't going to solve the problem."
"At least I'll be with you." mumbled Percy. I didn't hear what he said.
"What? I didn't hear you."
"I said, 'At least I'll be with you' There! I admit it. I like you Annabeth. I liked you since we were twelve! I just didn't have the guts to tell you years ago." Percy realised what he just said. His face went very red.
"I- I love you too Percy." I whispered. Percy went over my side and put his hands around my waist.
"You don't know how long I've been waiting for you to say that to me."Percy whispered to my ear.
"Me too." I told him. He turned to face me. He stared at my stormy grey eyes. I stared back at his sea green eyes. Percy started to lean closer. My body took over my brain so I leaned closer to him. I can smell his sweet breath. Our faces were like 2 inches away from each other. Suddenly his lips crashed into mine. He kissed me very softly, like he doesn't want to do anything wrong. I kissed him back. This time more passionately.
He broke the kiss and pecked me on the lips. We were both breathing heavily. I sat down on the sofa so I won't fall down. I was dizzy from the kiss. Percy followed me and sat beside. He yawned. I guess we were both tired.
"You tired?" I asked him.
"Yeah, you wanna go to sleep now?" He didn't even waited for my answer, and put his arms around me and pulled me down with him. With a last look at his face, I rested my head on his chest.
***End of Flashback***
We parked next to Nico's car. Percy turned the engine off and got out of his seat. He walked to my side of the car and opened the door for me. 'That was sweet.' I told myself.
"Thank you." I smiled at him. He gave me a quick kiss and turned around to see the others. My face was slightly red.
"Okay! Lets go and eat!" both Connor and Travis shouted excitedly.
"No need to go all crazy guys. It's only cheeseburgers. Come on." Percy said. He took my hand and I happily grabbed his. We walked inside to get our lunch.
