This probably a lot like "Back For You" but it's kinda different. Sort of...

Anyway, please enjoy the chapter!

Summer Love

"Annabeth, why do you have to pack now?" Percy groaned from his sitting position on my bed.

"I'm leaving in ten minutes, Seaweed Brain," I smirked at him, then turned back to my suitcase.

"Why are you leaving again?" Percy asked. I rolled my eyes at him. He obviously knew the answers to all of these questions, but he didn't want them to actually have to happen.

"Because I haven't seen my parents since we went to visit Atlas," I told him, shoving my laptop into my bag.

"But you'll call me, right?" Percy insisted.

"Of course, Perce," I replied, smiling at him. "I promise."

"Annabeth," He stood, matching his height to mine. "Don't just promise."

"Then what else am I supposed to do?" I responded.

"I don't want you to forget about me," Percy whispered. His green eyes were filled with seriousness. I knew he wasn't just joking around. This is the one of few times he's actually solemn.

"There's no chance of that happening," I assured him just as quietly.

"You sure?"

"Promise."

"Annabeth..."

"What?"

"'Promise'?"

"Right," I stepped back, snickering at his expression. "I can't just promise. I swear, Seaweed Brain, that I won't forget about you." He smiled, satisfied. Then he closed the gap between us, hugging me tightly. I returned the embrace, trying not to cry.

"You know we have to say good-bye at some point, right?" Percy quipped softly.

"I know," I looked up at him. "I wish it wasn't right now."

I felt Percy nod. Deciding to say something cheesy, I said, "I forget about you when it snows in September."

He pulled away, grinning. "That was so cheesy, Annabeth."

"You must be rubbing off on me, then," I smiled back.

He shook his head, before pulling me back in. "Totally."

That wasn't my favorite. I'm sorry it was so crappy. The next one will me better. I swear.

Next should I do:

a) Change My Mind

OR

b) An AU story based on I Would (with Luke treating Annabeth badly, and Percy thinking that Annabeth could be treated better)

Tell me your vote!
