Summary: When a giant falls on the roof, Percy and Annabeth get caught beneath the rubble. And when these two are alone together, they start talking about the upcoming fireworks. And Percy is definitely jealous.
"How could this happen?"
"Well, when a giant falls almost five stories, he'll likely crash and demolish the building he falls on."
"Funny, Percy."
"You're the one who asked for clarification."
"I wasn't the one who left the box right on the edge of the roof."
"How was I supposed to know he was going to trip? I thought he would just crush it."
"It was an immovable, indestructible box."
"We all make mistakes in the heat of the moment."
"He was pretty clumsy. A softie, as far as giants are concerned."
"So it's not entirely my fault."
"Yes it is. If you weren't a Seaweed Brain, you wouldn't have forgotten that little detail."
"You know I don't think your accusing me is helping us get out of here."
"Percy, we're under five stories of concrete. We're lucky that we landed in the spot that we did, otherwise we'd be dead."
"I realize this, Annabeth."
"But since we're trapped here, is it true you're taking Katie Gardner to the fireworks?"
"…Huh?"
"You heard what I said."
"Are you jealous?"
"No."
"Are you sure? Sounds like you are."
"I'm just curious."
"Yeah, we're going together."
"Interesting."
"What?"
"Nothing. Just never thought you'd go with a girl from Demeter. Besides, I thought she was dating Travis…?"
"They're going through a bit of a rough patch. I'm kind of hoping seeing me with Katie will make Travis jealous and get the balls to apologize for what he did to her."
"Oh yeah. I heard about that. I can't believe he said that to her."
"I know. So hopefully this will get the two back together. They're crazy for each other."
"Aww, Percy's doing something nice."
"Shut up. Can you hold that board up?"
"Sure. Careful, don't impale yourself."
"Will do. So are you? Going to the fireworks, I mean."
"I hadn't planned on it, but Connor asked me a couple days ago."
"…What did you tell him?"
"Why, are you jealous?"
"Of course not."
"I told him yes."
"…"
"He was really sweet about it, too."
"…"
"He even said he would take me up on the roof where he got the best view."
"…"
"Percy, you look really red. Are you sure you're okay?"
"I'm fine."
"Well I think—wait…did you hear that?"
"Annabeth, I don't think—"
"I think there's people up there! Help! We're down here!"
"Annabeth, listen to me! I don't think you should—"
"Can anyone hear me? Help—!"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"Percy?"
"Yeah?"
"Why did you kiss me?"
"I, uh…needed your attention."
"Well you certainly have it."
"I don't want you going with Connor."
"So you are jealous."
"Well…yeah."
"Hahahaha."
"What's funny?"
"Nothing. Just that Connor didn't really ask me. I just wanted to see how you would react."
"…"
"And I certainly wasn't disappointed."
"…"
"So…I suppose we should get out of here, huh?"
"Will you go to fireworks with me?"
"I thought you were going with Katie."
"She'll leave me within five minutes to find Travis."
"Then yes, I'll go with you."
"Good."
"Good."
"But I'm still blaming you for this mess."
"Shut up, Percy."
