Reversed

So, no one could guess who the mystery person was? Yeah, um, that kind of sucks. But I don't think you guys could've guessed who it was, anyway. Now, onto the matter of my not updating: PLEASE DON'T KILL ME! I'm sorry! *dodges knives* Well, are you going to continue to try and kill me, or are you going to read the story?

Disclaimer: I called Rick and asked- no, I begged- him to let me have Percy Jackson. I even offered to pay him $5, my life's savings. Alas, he said no. So I, unfortunately, do not own PJO.

She turned around and saw… her best friend, Grover Underwood. He was the satyr who'd found and recognized Annabeth's status as a demi-god. They'd been best friends since they were twelve (A/N: If you're confused, everyone is the age they were in TLO.) and, along with Percy, had gone on some pretty amazing quests.

Grover was tall kid- sorry, SATYR- with lots of acne and a small goatee. He had curly brown hair, with noticeable horns at the top of his head, which is why he always wore a Rasta cap. Today he wore his orange camp shirt and no pants or shoes. His eyes were locked on Annabeth and Chris.

"Oh, hi Grover. Nice whether we're having today, huh," Annabeth said awkwardly, twisting around, so Chris was still holding her, but so she wasn't craning her neck to see Grover.

"Wha- Who- Why- Hi Annabeth. Chris. Percy. Everyone else," Grover said, his eyes never leaving Chris and Annabeth.

"So…how's everything going for you? Anything interesting happen lately?" Annabeth said lamely. She was praying that Grover wouldn't be the one to ruin the plan.

"I could ask the same question. Excuse me, can I borrow Annabeth, please?" Grover asked, pulling Annabeth away.

As soon as they were out of the arena, Grover whispered, "What are you doing? Making out with Chris Rodriguez? Are you insane? Are you mad? Have you completely, utterly lost your mind?" Grover's voice got louder with every word.

"Grover! Be quiet! You'll ruin the plan!" Annabeth whispered, throwing her hand over Grover's mouth and pulling him behind the Hypnos cabin.

"What "plan"?" Grover asked curiously, seeming to have forgotten Annabeth and Chris' little make-out session.

"Okay, first you need to promise you won't tell Percy!"

"Why can't-"

"Promise! Swear it on the River Styx!" Annabeth pleaded.

"Fine, fine! Sheesh! I swear on the River Styx I won't tell Percy about your plan! Whatever it is," Grover muttered, as thunder sounded in the background.

Annabeth then filled Grover in on the plan. He didn't seem surprised when Annabeth confessed she was in love with Percy.

"So, let me get this straight: You and Chris are going to "date" to make Percy and Clarisse jealous. You are both positive that this will work. And if it all fells, you will go your separate way? Nope, nothing unusual going on here," Grover said.

Annabeth rolled her eyes, but she was smiling. She knew that Grover would keep her secret safe.

They walked back to the arena, only to find Percy with his arm wrapped around Clarisse and Chris glaring at Percy's back. When he caught sight of Annabeth, he walked up to her and kissed her forehead.

Annabeth wrapped her arms around Chris' neck, and he pulled her close.

"Oh, hey Annabeth! What's up? You and Chris are together? I thought it was some sort of joke," Clarisse said. Sometimes Clarisse could be an airhead.

"Yeah, we're together," Annabeth said, though she thought her voice sounded a bit strained. If it did, Clarisse ignored it.

"So, do you guys want to go on a double date?" Clarisse asked, glancing at her perfectly filed nails.

"Uh, I don't-" Chris started, but was cut of by Clarisse.

"Come on, Chris. It'll be fun," she pleaded, and her eyes grew big and innocent.

Chris melted. He looked like he was going to drop to his knees and kiss the ground she walked on.

"Sure we'll go, Clarisse. What do you have in mind?"

"Welcome to Isaac's Ice Cream Parlor, (A/N: Have no idea if that's a real place. Let's play make-believe and act like it is.) what will you be having today," the young blonde cashier asked. She was staring intensely at Percy, which made Annabeth glare at her, though she didn't seem to notice.

"I'll have a double scoop of Red Velvet Cake," Percy said.

"Um, I want Cookies 'N Cream, thanks," Clarisse said, thought she was busy re-applying her already perfect make-up.

"Give me triple scoop of Mint Chocolate Chip, Caramel, and Coffee, please," Chris said, his eyes never leaving Clarisse's face.

"Blue Moon, double- no, triple scoop, please," Annabeth said, still openly glaring at the cashier.

"That'll be $14.70, please," the cashier said, handing them their ice cream.

They found a booth near the back, away from mortals, and began eating.

"So… why Blue Moon, Annabeth?" Chris asked, trying to start a conversation.

Percy beat her to the punch.

"Because, she loves the color blue. But, you already knew that, right, Chris?"

"Of course! Just trying to start a conversation. Geez," Chris muttered, his face going red.

They sat in silence for a few minutes. Suddenly, the air near the booth shimmered, and Clarisse's sister, Reyna, (A/N: Bet you didn't see that one coming!) appeared in front of the table.

"Aaaaahhh, Clarisse, you'll never guess who's the new "it" couple at camp!" Reyna shrieked so loud, the Iris Message rippled.

"Annabeth and Chris, duh, Reyna."

"Yeah, but no. Chrisabeth is soooo 5 hours ago. No, I'm talking about Audrey Smith, from Hermes, and Nico di Angelo, from Persephone! Can you believe it? Oh no, here comes Rachel Dare, that stupid daughter of Techne. If she tells me one more thing about art, I swear I'll-" Reyna ran her hand through the IM, leaving her threat hanging.

"Wow! It seems like everyone is getting together today! But I can't believe Audrey likes di Angelo…" Clarisse said.

Nico di Angelo was a son of Persephone. He had light brown hair, soft features, and bright green eyes. He always complained that his mother smothered him, even though he had little contact with her. He loved spending time with the Demeter kids. He constantly argued with Piper McLean, a daughter of Hades. His older sister, Bianca, was in the Hunters of Artemis.

"Wait, who's Chrisabeth? What are you talking about?" Annabeth asked.

"Babe, they put our names together. Get it? Chrisabeth. Chrisabeth?" Chris said.

"Oh. Thanks, babe," Annabeth said, kissing his cheek.

"Um…so…you guys ready to go, or what?" Percy asked, standing up and grabbing Clarisse's hand.

"But Percyyyyyy! Our double date isn't over! Now we have to go…roller skating!" Clarisse exclaimed.

"Oh brother," Annabeth mumbled.

So…what'd you think? Review!
