There might be some grammatical/spelling errors, so sorry in advance. And of course, all characters belong to Rick Riordan!

Annabeth took a look around her room and sighed. She had a lot of packing to do. She was moving to her dorm a few days before classes started so that she could meet some people and get a look around the campus.

Someone knocked softly on the bedroom door and went in without Annabeth noticing. He hugged her from behind, placing his head on the crook of her neck.

"Hey, Wise Girl."

Annabeth turned around, a huge grin on her face. Percy had promised to help her pack and move her belongings to her dorm.

"So, what are we packing up first?" he asked once they've untangled themselves from each other.

Annabeth thought for a bit. Even if they've been going out for almost two years now, and have been good friends long before that, she didn't want him to help her pack her clothes. Her books were the heaviest, and she would need some time to pick out her favorites that she would bring with her.

"Let's start with my photos and such. Maybe some school supplies as well."

Percy walked over to her nightstand and began picking up some notebooks and pens, shoving them into one of Annabeth's backpacks. He came across a framed photo of them on their first anniversary-their parents insisted on taking a photo of them with their arms around each other. In the photo, Percy was smiling lovingly down at Annabeth (since he surprisingly grew taller than her over the years), and Annabeth's cheek was pressed to his chest.

Percy held the photo, walked over to Annabeth and showed it to her. "I'll miss us," he whispered.

Annabeth smiled at it. "I will, too. But we'll still see each other on breaks, of course."

He kissed her cheek, closing his eyes. "That isn't nearly enough time, Annabeth. How about I visit you on the weekends, too?"

Her eyes widened and she nearly dropped all of the pencils she was holding. "Percy, you'll be twelve hours away from me. I don't want you to waste your time on me, when you could have exams or other things you need to do!"

"Then if that's the case, I won't come by. But when I don't have anything important to do, I'll be at your place."

Annabeth shook her head, but she couldn't erase the smile forming on her face. "You're adorable, Seaweed Brain. I love you."

She kissed him then, holding on to him as if they were never going to see each other again, even if Percy had just promised then that they'd see each other every weekend.

College, Generally

As promised, Percy came by every time he could. He always brought snacks and a movie. They would talk for hours about how their weeks have been, cuddle on the sofa and just listen to each other.

Even if he wasn't a huge fan of learning, Percy would sometimes come by with some notes and ask Annabeth to tutor him. Everything, even reading (which their dyslexia made difficult), was bearable with Annabeth near him.

A/N: I hope you guys liked this chapter! I'll try to update more often, if you guys still want graduation, getting jobs and such. I really appreciate reviews and helpful comments.
