You're gonna hate me by the end of this chapter but read the bottom, please. You'll better understand.

Searching For You

Percy was awaiting his girlfriend's return, her and Annabeth had disappeared to the bathroom and he knew how girls could be. Annabeth came out a minute later, she shoved past everybody, looking like she was on the verge of a breakdown. Annabeth ran past him, not even seeming to register what she was doing.

"Annabeth," he called after her.

He tried grabbing onto her arm but she pulled away quickly, it wasn't until she was out the door that he noticed he held a bracelete in his hand. But this wasn't just any bracelete, it was the one that Percy himself had made her almost 5 years prior.

*Flashback*

"Come on, Seaweed Brain, it'll be fun." Annabeth urged.

"Fine," Percy finally submitted.

She had been trying to convince him for a while to make braceletes for each other. Annabeth smiled, gave him a quick hug, and rushed out of the room in search of supplies. When she came back, she was holding everything they could possibly need. Percy laughed when she tripped and fell but it was short lived because it was him that she had fallen on.

"Nice catch, Kelp Head." she said breathlessly.

"Please remove your elbow," he groaned.

Annabeth blushed and quickly got off of him, she got all the supplies ready to hide her embarassment.

In no time the two had their finished pieces of artwork, which they exchanged. Percy received one that said, Yours Now And 4Ever, Annabeth.

When Annabeth looked at hers, tears came to her eyes. It said, With Love, Seaweed Brain.

*Flashback*

It had been approxiamtely two minutes Percy had been staring at the closed door before he bolted for it. "What are you doing?" Samantha demanded, voice bitchy as ever.

"Annabeth, she left, she's out there all alone." he explained.

Without saying another word, or allowing his girlfriend to, he ran out the door. He screamed her name over and over again, she couldn't have made it that far. He tripped over something and looked down to inspect it, his eyes went wide as he realized what it was: Annabeth's shoe, and beside it was a thin pool of blood. He choked up as he called for her, tears started running down his face as he had some idea to his best friends fate.

***

Percy sat at Samantha's house, taking a short break. He had called her name for two hours and called the police, nobody's seen her. Sam sat down next to him, her eyes also red and puffy, she would never wish anything bad upon her friend, she had just simply wanted her to stay away from her boyfriend. She couldn't help but feel like it was her fault.

Sam wrapped her arms around Percy and they held onto each other for awhile, waiting. After 10 solid minutes of this, Percy couldn't take it any longer. "I have to find her." he said with determination.

"It's dangerous out there, you can't go." Sam said, latching onto his arm.

He shook her off. "I have to."

Samantha couldn't argue, he was already gone. "Stay safe." she whispered.

Percy bolted the second he got outside, he decided to search by his and Annabeth's houses. He squinted in the moonlight, waiting, watching. Then he spotted a figure, it was on the ground next to his window. He ran for it and felt his heart soar then plummet as he discovered it was her.

She looked up at him weakly, make up ran down her cheeks from crying and her dress was different looking then before, it had rips all over it and had obviously been thrown on hastily. He dropped to his knees beside her and hugged her tight, she accepted the hug but yelped in pain from the force. He made his grip gentler, and picked her up, finding strength from her pain.

He carried her inside and saw that she looked much worse, she had blood smeared across her and she had bruises forming on her cheeks and arms. She shook heavily and clutched onto him like he was the only thing keeping her from going over the edge. He lay her in his bed and called the police, informing them of their current position.

He walked back to his room to find Annabeth changed into his clothes, he was thankful for that, she had also removed the make up. She was sitting down in the corner, making herself as small as possible, tears silently slid down her face. He set a glass of water next to her and retreated a small distance, she obviously wasn't ready to talk about it.

She stared at the glass for a second before picking it up, it trembled dangerously in her hand. She sloshed water all over herself before giving up and setting it back down. Percy walked over to her cautiously and pressed the glass to her lips, she glanced up at him then back down. She drank from it slowly, he could hear how painful it was for her. When she was done, he helped her up, still saying nothing, and carried her back to his bed.

He walked back to his kitchen and grabbed the phone, he called up Samantha and told her what happened. After that he walked back into his room and layed next to Annabeth. She hugged herself in a tight ball and Percy laid on his side, and watched her. She rolled a bit and gasped, clutching her stomach.

"What hurts?" he asked softly.

Despite his gentle concern, she still flinched and began to tremble some more. Finally a hoarse whisper stirred the air, "Everything."

She passed out right after that and went to sleep, he followed her lead once he was certain she'd be, well, not good, but alright, because it was apparent that 'good' wouldn't be associated with her for quite some while.

Sally and Paul Jackson rushed into their house after hearing the good news; Annabeth had been found. They were baffled at the silence, they would think that their would be some kind of celebration. They cautiously peeked into their only sons room and found him and Annabeth sleeping together on his bed.

Sally saw Annabeth's dress and picked it up, she examined it closely and gasped in understanding. All the rips, dirt stains, sweat stench, and most importantly, the blood stains. Annabeth had been raped.

Now I know a lot of you are going to stop reading this b/c you don't want to believe this actually happens, but it does. And it's horrible. Things are going to change, especially Annabeth, and she sure as hell isn't going to take Samantha's shit anymore and she's going to fight with all she's got for Percy. Oh, and Annabeth does NOT get pregnant. So, please review and I can already feel the heat from the flames I'm about to get. REVIEW. Mel out.
