A/N: So, even though I didn't get any reviews for the previous chapter, I have decided to do a second chapter because I am currently on Cloud 9, due to getting a 100 on my Classical Mythology test. I decided to do a second chapter, in which Annabeth is the one who gets caught instead! I still don't own anything, including the song "Holding Out for a Hero". This one is more of a song fic, and since I like the song so much, I decided to use all of it, but, come on, you gotta admit that it fits the story perfectly.

I was tired, really tired. But, I couldn't decide whether I wanted to sleep, or go see Annabeth. It was my first free period since Annabeth walked in on my singing Miley Cyrus' Can't be Tamed. Not my proudest moment, I know, but I can't exactly say I wasn't pleased with the outcome. Finally, I decided that I would sleep when I was dead, so I might as well make what use I can with my waking life right now, and turned in the direction of Cabin Six.

The owl over the cabin glared at me, as if letting me know that Athena was watching, and she wouldn't be happy if I did anything with her daughter in her cabin.

"I know, I know," I muttered to soothe the inanimate object; some passing campers looked at me strangely. I remembered how Athena had turned Medusa into a gorgon when she had caught her and my dad making out in Athena's temple. I doubted that she would do anything to Annabeth if she caught the two of us together but she would probably do something to me and I really didn't like the idea of having snakes for hair. Then I'd never be able to cut it!

I walked up to the door, and was about to knock, when I heard a weird noise coming from inside the cabin. I was curious, so I walked over to the window to see what was going on.

I rubbed my eyes to make sure I was seeing things clearly. Annabeth was alone in the cabin, she had her iPod on; I could see the earbuds leading from her pocket to her ears, and was dancing around to something only she could hear.

"Where have all the good men gone

And where are all the gods?" I snickered at that, because I was so sure that Annabeth wanted to date Apollo or Zeus, or one of the other gods.

"Where's the streetwise Hercules to fight the rising odds?" Hey! She didn't want Hercules! She wanted me, Percy! Hercules was a big old jerk, and had really been mean to the girls in his life; Zoey, Megara, Deanira, and Hippolyta, not only that but they all seemed to end up dead.

"Isn't there a white knight?

Upon a fiery steed?" I almost turned around to ask Leo if he could cook me up another Festus, he was about the fieriest steed there was.

"Late at night, I toss and I turn and I dream of what I need" I almost laughed out loud at that, imagining Annabeth tossing in her bed at night, dreaming of some guy who was gonna come and sweep her off her feet… Wait a sec, wasn't I the one who did that?

"I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
He's gotta be strong
And he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life "

I was strong! I was fast! And the Giant War only just ended, so I was definitely fresh from the fight! The only thing I wasn't sure was if I was larger than life, how could I be? I was just me, Percy, but wasn't that what Annabeth wanted? Wasn't that what she trekked all the way across the country, and then beat my memories back into my head for?

At this point, I knew I must look incredibly creepy, standing at the window of my girlfriend's cabin, just staring in, but nobody bothered me, in fact, there didn't even seem to be anybody else here.
"Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There's someone reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder end rising with the heat
It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet"

Annabeth jumped on top of, and then off of a bed at this point, pretending she was Superman, right after dramatically reaching up into the air to show that it was just beyond her reach. I laughed again, Superman, hah! I wasn't going to be racing on the thunder anytime soon, considering how much Zeus hated me, but I did have to race to find lightening at one point. This song was getting more amusing by the second.

"Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I would swear that there's someone somewhere
Watching me"

She was right about that, I was watching her, and being very creepy about it too. I had sort of met her when the lightening was splitting the sea, in the middle of a fight between Zeus and Poseidon… I decided to walk into the cabin, just as she was singing the last part.

"Through the wind and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach
Like the fire in my blood"

She was turned away from me at this point, so I decided to do the same thing to her that she had done to me when she caught me singing. I wrapped my arms around her waist. She didn't jump into the air, or scream, like I had, she grabbed one of my arms and locked it behind my back.

"Ow," I grunted.

"Percy?" Annabeth exclaimed as she pulled the earbuds out of her ears and let me go.

"I thought you would feel my approach like a fire in your blood Wise Girl?" I questioned. Annabeth blushed slightly and stuck her tongue out at me.

"Maybe I did, I did say that I could swear that there was someone somewhere watching me," she played along.

"Well," I said, as I wrapped my arms around her again, "you were correct about that. I was watching you from the window. I'm surprised that nobody yelled at me for being a creep or peeping tom, but nobody even seemed to be there."

"Percy…." Annabeth began, but I decided to tease her just a little more.

"Hey now, I get it, I can't be tamed, so you're holding out for a real hero."

"Sure," Annabeth agreed. "Maybe I can find somebody who doesn't sing along to Miley Cyrus, as an bonus. What do you think Seaweed Brain?" She smirked up at me.

"Well, you said that he needed to be fast, and that you would only wait until morning light, so I think that chances are you're stuck with me. Sorry, Wise Girl." I looked down at her, smirking now too.

"Oh Seaweed Brain, I did hold out for a hero, I held out for you." She leaned up and pecked me on the cheek. "Now, do you want to know why nobody yelled at you for being a creeper?"

"Sure."

"Because everybody's at lunch now, the conch sounded right before you got here, I just wanted to listen to the rest of the song before I left." I nodded, it all made sense now.

"Well Wise Girl, I don't have a fiery steed, and I'm not Hercules, but would you do me the honor of going to lunch with me?" I asked, holding my elbow out for her, pretending to be gentlemen from one of those old movies from when my mom was a kid, so about a zillion years ago.

"I'd be honored Sir Seaweed Brain, but you'd better get cracking on that fiery steed, a flying horse will only get you so far." We both smiled down at each other and, for once, everything seemed right and calm with the world.
