Annabeth's POV
Last month, Percy Jackson and I became an official couple. It's been a month since the world was saved, a month since Percy made his choice, a month since hundreds of half-bloods died and a month since my life restarted.
I was sitting in my dorm room at my school doing homework. My dorm door opened and my roommate walked in. Her name is Karly Sikes and she hates my guts. She's one of those popular people who think of me as competition but doesn't understand that I don't want to be placed in the tiny shoes that hurt my toes.
Anyways, she looked at me with distaste and said, "There's a hot guy down on the front steps of the school. He's asking for you. I don't know why he wants you when he could have me." She finished applying gallons of perfume and tons of make-up on.
"Yeah, I wonder." I mumbled then I started coughing because I was hit with a wall of lavender and cucumber perfume. She strutted out and flicked her hair at e saying, "You might want to go down there now before I pick him up."
"Whatever." I answered. I already had an idea of who it was. I grabbed my homework and packed my bag. I walked down the front steps to see th one and only, Percy Jackson. He was sitting on th steps. His black hair was blowing in the wind. His sea green eyes were shining with dignity and confidence.
After I had stopped checking out my boyfriend, I noticed that he was surrounded by girls trying to get his attention. He looked like he was a little uncomfortable. I decided to help him.
I started by saying, "Hey Percy!"
He turned around and smiled at me. I could tell there was relief in his eyes, "Hey Annabeth." All the girls in the group turned to look at me in shock. I smirked and walked up to Percy and looped my arms into his.
I asked sweetly, "Whatcha talking about, babe?" Percy looked at me with raised eyebrows. He knew I didn't like to call him that but glared at him and he looked away. "I heard you were looking for me?"
"What are you doing here Chase?" One of the girls in the crowd of girls said.
"Isn't it obvious? Percy is taking me home."
"What?"
"Lady's listen I'm taken," Percy said to them. I turned to him and nodded and we walked away. We were to our car and we could hear them "whispering" about us.
On the drive back home, Percy laughed and said, "Well, babe, where would you like to eat?"
"Ugh! Do not call me Babe." I said. I hate it. I hate it. I hate it. I drives me nuts.
"Ok, Wisegirl, where would you like to eat?" Percy smirked.
"Johnny rockets. Im in the mood for hamburgers."
