A/N: So I promised a more upbeat and happy chapter and here it is. I always think of PJO when I hear this song or watch this movie. Lauren's OC profile is on my profile.

I Won't Say I'm In Love
Annabeth's POV
So, I was sitting in my cabin, minding my own business, when suddenly Lauren and eight of her friends from the Apollo cabin burst in.
"Hey hey hey!" said Lauren.
I sighed. "Hi Lauren. What's up?" Lauren is 13, three years younger than me, and was claimed by Apollo a week ago. Oh, such a long, long week...
She grinned. "You know what song I'm thinking of?"
I groaned. The Apollo kids love turning everyday life into a musical. The rest of us just play along. This time, I knew what song she was talking about. My favourite song from my favourite Disney movie.
"I'm not singing it," I said.
Unfortunately, she has a creepy talent of knowing practically everything about everyone. So that means she knows I can't help singing the song after hearing...
"Ugh, what's the matter with me?" she said, in a really bad interpretation of Meg's voice. "You'd think a girl would learn..."
Her and her eight friends (Heh. Nine muses. I only just go that.) stared at me expectantly.
"If there's a prize for rotten judgement," I sang. "I guess I've already won that. No man is worth the aggravation. That's ancient history, been there, done that."
It's the mystery to everyone but the Apollo cabin where the backing music comes from.
"Who'd'ya think you're kidding? He's the earth and heaven to you. Try to keep it hidden, honey, we can see right through you," It was then that I realised just how much how this song sounds like my like.
Unfortunately.
"Oh no..." Well, it's true.
"Girl, you can't conceal it, we know how you feel and who you're thinking of.."
"Oh..." The girls twirled me out of the cabin. "No chance, no way, I won't say it. No, no."
"You swoon, you sigh, why deny it? Uh oh..."
"It's too cliche," And if there's one thing I hate, it's cliches. "I won't say I'm in love."
Funnily enough, no one seemed to notice the group of dancing singing girls twirling a path through the cabins.
"I thought my heart had learned it's lesson," I thought it had, with Luke and everything. "It feels so good when you start out. My head is screaming get a grip, girl! Unless you're dying to cry your heart out..." I knew I was headed for heartbreak. I always am. "Oh..."
"You keep on denying, who you are and what you're feeling, baby, we're not buying, hon, we saw you hit the ceiling..."
"Oh..."
"Face it like a grown-up, when ya gonna own up that you got, got, got it bad?"
Umm, try never!
Just then Percy walked by and saw us. He laughed and waved at me. I waved back. I couldn't help grinning.
"No chance, no way, I won't say it, no, no..." Hopefully they didn't notice.
"Give up. but give in, check the grin - you're in love..." They noticed.
"This scene won't play, I won't say I'm in love..."
"You're doin' flips, read our lips: You're in love..."
"You're way off base, I won't say it..." This was getting annoying. I was dodging around campers trying to get away from them. "Get off my case, I won't say it."
"Girl, don't be proud," They're telling me that? ME? "It's ok, you're in love..." Yeah, it's okay for some Aphrodite girl!
I turned away from them and sang the last part as quietly as I possibly could. "Oh...At least out loud, I won't say I'm in love..."
Hope you liked it. This is one of my favourite Disney songs. I miss the old Disney...
Anyway, hope you enjoyed it. I know I enjoyed writing it.
See yas!
Sincerely, me.
