Annabeth:

I looked over at him. He stood there watching Rachel paint. She had hoped after the race he might come over and congratulate her or something. Anything really she just wanted him to talk to her. Maybe she thought maybe he's not talking to you because your always making fun of him. She shook that thought away. He never seemed to mind and although she made fun of him more often than the others she made fun of everyone.

There were plenty of things to pick on him for and it distracted her from his eyes

and hair

and voice

and pretty much every other distracting thing about him.

"You're staring again," Piper warned her with a smile. She felt her face getting a little hot and tried thinking about something else.

Percy:

After the race we had something to eat then played volleyball and stuff. Then I looked over and saw Rachel painting and went over to watch. I saw she was painting the sun setting over the water. Parts of the water were as bright red as her hair. She turned to me. The setting sun lit her hair up like a brilliant flame and he found himself looking right into her green eyes as she asked ,"isn't it beautiful?"

"Yeah," he breathed qso quietly she barely heard him. (unlike her he definitely wasn't talking about the sunset. Or the painting)

Then he took a step forward. "Percy! Get over hear we're gonna play twister!" Hazel shouted at him.

"Seriously?" He asked

Hazel laughed, "Yeah now come on! You to Rachel!" she called back over her shoulder as she walked back to the group.

When they got over there he saw they had put a bunch of mats together. He was also relieved to see Luke had left. I don't know why but there was something about Luke I don't like. I never told anyone about it though because I didn't really know why I hated him.

We were playing the game when I fell. Right onto Rachel. I didn't plan on doing it! It just happened. I blame it on the one or two drinks I may or may not have had that night but I wasn't even slightly buzzed.

I pulled away quickly. "I-I have to g-g-go!" I stammered before leaving quickly. Noone else noticed thankfully but I couldn't look back at her. I had kissed her! I knew she'd probably hate me now almost as much as Annabeth. I'd have to talk to her and convince her it was an accident! But I couldn't yet.

Oh great!
