Chp 2
Annabeth's POV
I woke up to the thought of him. He filled my thoughts, made him the only thing revolving in my head. I decided to take a cold shower to try and awaken my senses. I got dressed and went down to breakfast.
"Hi." I said, giving Piper, Hazel and Thalia a smile. I sat down and ordered a meal. But as I looked up I felt all their eyes on me. "Apparently a little missy was getting up with a certain cousin of a friend of mine." Piper said, nudging my shoulder.
I hid the blush on my face. "I don't know what you're talking about." I said, playing dumb. "Oh please, you were all over him and practically freaking out when he was touching you." Thalia said, sending an evil smirk my way,
I shook my head, looking down a t my food. "One, I wasn't all over him. And two, I wasn't freaking out about that, I was worrying about my work." I said, trying to sound matter of factly. They didn't look completely sold but didn't say anything.
"You like him though." Thalia said, smirking before finishing her food. "Speak of the devil." Piper said, and their eyes were all trained on someone behind me. I turned and saw Percy walking towards us, with a smile on his face.
He sat down next to me and I finished the last but of my food. "You all enjoy the wedding last night?" He asked. "Yeah, it was really good." Hazel said, smiling. I cleared my throat and stood up. "Well I need to get some work done." I said.
"Annabeth? University only starts in three more days." Piper moaned. "And my paper needs to be done right now." I waved and walked off to my room. I worked for a couple hours, but found my legs needed some stretching. I went to the little fridge in the room, and found I was out of water. I groaned and put on my shoes.
I opened my front door and found myself staring at Percy. He had just come out his room as well. "Oh, hi." He said, smiling. I gave him a nod. I started walking down the corridor and he followed. "So where you going?" He asked. "I ran our of water bottles, just get another. And you?" I said.
"Just finding something to do, not sure what it is yet but I will find out." I got my water and he carried on walking back to my room with me. "You know, when I asked if everyone enjoyed the wedding, I forgot to mention it was due to a certain blonde girl opposite me." He said.
My insides tingle, and the urge to have him close to me again bloomed in my muscles, trying to move me from my calm stupor. IHad secretly liked him when I had met him the previous year but never talked to him much. I got to my door and swiped the card, opening it a little and turning back to him.
"Is that flattery Mr Jackson?" I asked, a smirk on my face. He put his hand next to my head on the door frame and leaned in a little. "I dunno, is it?" He asked, his voice low and vibrating through my spinal cord.
I don't know what happened to me. My muscles and my brain melted and I found myself leaning forward. I kissed him, cupping his cheek with my free hand. He rested his hands on the small of my back, pulling me closer.
I stumbled backwards a little and forgot the door was open. He quickly caught my hand and pulled me back up. We stood in my room, not saying anything for a couple seconds. "I, uh, have some work to-" I started to stutter, but he interrupted me.
"We kiss and then you act like nothing happened?" He asked. I looked up, but made a mistake for looking at his eyes. The door was closed behind him. My limbs forced me to move and I found myself kissing him again. His soft lips, the taste of coffee on his breath.
It made my brain mush, made me forget I hardly know this guy, besides how hot he looked in just board shorts on a beach. He flipped us so my back was pushed up against the door. He pulled away and I found myself yearning to have his lips on mine again. We both caught our breath for a second.
He leaned forward, kissing me again but I mumbled against his lips, "I really need to finish this work." He sighed, pulling away from my lips. I kept staring at his mouth but was brought back to reality by his smirk. "Like what you see?" He said, right next to my ear.
I shuddered under him and he had a victorious smirk on. I stood up and moved away from the door. "I'll see you later." I said, looking down. He smirked and left my room, closing the door behind him. I bit my lip. What was the out burst? He will come back later and ask what it was for. I had to get my story straight before he did.
