Percy and I have been friends since we were five years old. We are together like 24/7. We don't have any secrets between each other. But I kinda have a small one. See I have had a crush o him since I was 12. Now I'm 16. So yeah its been a while.
************************pagebrake**************************
[a.n. this next paragraph is a flashback from when they were 13 and its in Annabeth's p.o.v.]I called everybody to my house to finish our competition and I knew one thing I was going to win. Around 12:00p.m. they all showed up. I looked at the faces of Jake, Cameron, Jaime, Brent, and Percy. All of those boys wondering why they are here except for Percy. He helped me set up the competition earlier. "So you are probably all wondering why you are her, well remember the tournament yesterday. Well we are gonna settle who wins. We are playing water balloon dodgeball. And whoever looses has to dance to whatever we want in Walmart. But whoever wins picks who will dance. No back outs and times. Got it." I said. Everybody nodded. We all went to the coolerand grabbed water balloons. Percy explained the rules,"if you get hit your out. The boundaries are this whole half of the block since Annabeth owns it. No crossing the alley. Now get to your hiding places. Go. Go. Go." Everybody took off. The whistle sounded by me and we were off. I heard Jake and Jaime scream. They probably hit themselves. Typical. I ducked as one sail at me and it hit Cameron in the face who was standing next to me. I looked over to see Percy smiling evily. I playfully glared at him and chucked one at his gut. He dodged it easily and ran. Within seconds I heard Brent scream. I sounded a little to high for him but I recognized Percy laughing in the distance. Then I made my battle plan. I acted like I didn't have a balloon and purposely ran by Percy. He saw me and chucked one at me feet. I dodged it. Then he tackled me from behind but I knew that was coming. I heard everybody else whispering Annabeth is dead. I was on my back with Percy on top of me. He noticed the position we were in but didn't seem to care. I tried to get out but he held me in place."Looks like we meet again." Percy said while he had a water balloon hovering over me. He looked me in the eyes and I noticed how green they were. I could just stare into that green sea all day. I jarred myself back to reality. I remembered my battle plan and slowly took out my water balloon that was about the size of a ping pong ball. He was staring at me enjoying that he was winning. I brought up the water balloon and squeezed it it wet the back of Percy's shirt. He stared at me in shock. "Well it looks like I just won" I said. He turned around with his water balloon and threw it at me and it hit me right in the chest. I already won but I started running after him trying to get him back.
I started laughing at that memory. Percy was sitting next o me on the bus to Branson. He looked at me and said, "What the heck are you laughing about. Did you draw on my face again?" I laughed again, "Not this time, I was just remembering that water balloon tournament we had. And you had to do the chicken dance around Walmart.""oh really, or were you thinking about how we tackled each other." He said with a smirk on his face. I punched him in the arm really hard, so hard he had to hold it to stop throbbing. "do you really want me to post that video of you doing the chicken dance on YouTube or even the baby video of you running around butt naked in your house" I leaned in closer to hear hat he was going to say. "Okay I was just joking jst don't post that video on YouTube." I saw the desperation in his voice and said I wouldn't. he laughed. I punched him in the shoulder one more time for that comment and put my ear buds in letting him use one.
I know what you are thinking but no we are not dating. I think he knows I like him but he lets it slide. Over the years we have grown closer and closer. Now he practically lives at my house. He comes there for homework, talking, hanging out, and a lot of other stuff. On time I accidently fell asleep next to him. I was crying my eyes out on his shoulder when my mom , Athena, died. I kinda fell asleep next to I'm and so did he. We woke up staring into each others eyes. I smiled at that thought. Percy looked at me again but didn't anything. Thank the gods that would have been embarrassing.
I rested my head on his shoulder. He looked down at me and smiled that always made butterflies in my stomach. See we always do that kind of stuff like hug each other, lay our heads on each others shoulder. Stuff like that. But it was just because we best friends.
"So you excited to go to Branson' I asked tiredly. "Well duh. Also because I wont have to walk so far to visit friends." I knew what he meant. He lived in a far out apartment that took forever to get to. Also I bet he meant he would be closer to me but I didn't say anything. I layed back down on his shoulder falling to sleep but I remembered one thing I saw before I fell asleep. What was that look in his eyes towards me. was it … no it can't be… could it?"
Tell me what you thought. Did I need to add anything and also when I go to write that next chappie what should I do. Tell me in your reviews!
