I don't own Night World.
First
Annabeth was confused by her feelings when she first – properly – met the new demigod. He was cute, she supposed. His eyes were very bright, brighter than she'd realised when she was taking care of him. She heard Chiron introduce her as "the young lady who nursed him back to health" and ask her to check on his bunk in Hermes's cabin.
But she wasn't ready to leave right that moment. The demigod, Percy, shifted slightly but still met her eyes. She looked down at his hands. Minotaur horn. That's right, he'd killed a minotaur. Strange, it didn't seem like he could kill one of Hephaestus's miniature automatons, let alone a minotaur. Too soft, maybe? She wasn't sure what it was.
Wow, his eyes were really bright in the sun. She knew she had to say something… oh, and Chiron had asked her to check his bunk. She just about managed to talk. "You drool in your sleep."
He looked surprised, and a little disappointed, but Annabeth didn't stick around long enough to really decipher his expression.
