Hi Guys. This is going to be one of the little stories in my new story which is like a collection of PJO stories. Anyway, this is Part 1 of Roses and Stereotypes, which is a small story in the bigger collection Zeusdammit, Why?

Sorry if it seems small, I just had to separate it. ENJOY! (I know it's bad, but please leave a review telling me how I can improve?)

Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson, R.R. does. I also do not own the song mentioned in the chapter, nor the references(those belong to the wonderful J.K. Rowling herself). I also do not own the movie, Beauty and the Beast(2017) mentioned.

"Annabeth, come on!" he practically screamed, like a little boy(which he actually really was in his heart). I sighed impatiently and said, "But, Logan is such a better movie, it's about…" I tried to figure out a way to convince him to watch the amazing, critic-loved movie without boring him in less than 2 seconds.

"It's about the Wolverine, and we finally get to see how much damage those adamantium claws can wreak." We were at Percy's place, waiting for Sally's blue cookies to finish baking(Yes, we helped. We're not that mean, you know). And I was trying as hard as I could not to stare at the beautiful eyes of my best friend. What? It's not my fault he's the hottest person to ever exist. Don't tell him I said that. It would only ruin our friendship… and I cannot risk that.

Percy pretended to think about it, then said "No! Let's watch Beauty and the Beast. I heard the castle has some amazing architectural… stuff." I sighed, still not willing to go to that stupid movie. "Fine." Percy said. "How about we go out for lunch, since Mum has a date with Paul, and then you can decide?" Still not giving in, I said yes.

Don't ya'll just LOVE time skips?

"Why don't you want to watch it?" he asked me with a mouthful of cheeseburger.

Disgusting. But, not when Percy does it.

"Because… it teaches kids a lot of wrong stuff." I vaguely replied. "Like what?" Percy pursued(ha ha see what I did there?), not willing to drop the subject. "Well, for starters, it just shows a poor girl who is kidnapped and is so traumatized, her brain falls apart, and the stockholm syndrome takes effect." He blinked. "What's that?" I rolled her eyes at him, honestly, it's a miracle he is still alive, he's so naive. "The stockholm syndrome, Percy, is a condition that causes hostages to develop a psychological alliance with their captors as a survival strategy during captivity." Percy just stared at me. "How do you always memorize stuff like that perfectly?" I sighed, "Nevermind."

"No, no, no! Tell me more!" It was my turn to stare at him now, why would he want to listen to me talk and ramble on? He hates that stuff. Oh, well, it's not like I'm going to pass up the chance to educate him on the Stockholm Syndrome. "Well, those feelings which a kidnaped person feels, come from this weird bond which forms. It's kinda silly, because of all the dangers and risks the victim suffers."

"Hey, it's like that old One Direction song! Who's that shadow holding me hostage? I've been here for days… Who's this whisper telling me that I'm never gonna get away?... I know they'll be coming to find me soon… But I feel I'm getting used to… Being held by you" he sang.

"Percy, this is a much more sirius(do you see what I did there too?) topic!" I practically screamed at him. "It's literally one of the most damaging things which can happen to you!"

"But my Stockholm syndrome is in your room… Yeah, I fell for you!" People were now looking at us through the other booths, but when has that ever bothered Seaweed Brain? Me, I was trying to hide under the table. "Can we just pay and get out?" I mumbled, not sure if he heard. "Yeah, alright, but I'm not letting this go." he warned. Of course not… but then again, that was what I loved him for.

Thanks for reading! Please leave a review, Part 2 will be updated in the next week at least.
