Annabeth's POV
I always thought it would be him.
Everything about him is perfect.
His eyes.
His smile.
The look he gets on his face when he concentrates.
The look he gets on his face when he knows he just did something really stupid or dangerous.
(Or both)
How protective he is of me.
The way he looks at me.
How loyal he is.
I don't deserve him.
He tells me that it's the other way around, but I don't believe him.
Maybe we don't deserve each other.
The other day in capture-the-flag he fought Clarisse for me.
I got mad and said he shouldn't have done that, that I can fight my own battles.
He smirked and said "I know"
Then he kissed me.
Like I said, I always thought it would be him.
