Author's Note- This chapter is depressingly short. Oh well I hope you enjoy.

Chapter 4
Annabeth's POV.
Rachel and I ran downstairs, to the music room, where everyone was waiting.
"Camp meeting! Today Camp Jupiter wants to see their competition at the park. We're going to be their competition. So let's practice! Jason, please announce the duets and trios." Percy yelled
"Sure, Perce, you don't have to yell. So we have for duets we have, Katie and Travis, Rachel and Leo, Thalia and Nico, Piper and I, Clarisse and Conner, and Percy and Annabeth. For trios we got, Annabeth, Piper, and Thalia, Katie, Rachel, and Clarisse, Percy, me, and Nico, Leo, Travis and Conner. Then we'll do a group performance. So people, what songs?"
"We'll do 'Shape of You." Katie said.
"Rockabye." Leo said
"This is what you came for." Thalia replied.
"Love on the Brain." Piper answered.
"Ain't no mountain high enough" Conner said.
"Water under the bridge." I said.
"Ok, now the trios!" Jason shouted.
"Closer." Piper shouted.
"Paris." Rachel yelled.
"Can't stop the feeling." Nico exclaimed.
"Treat you better." Leo shouted.
"Now the group song. How about Dynamite." Jason asked.
"Sure" I said.
"Ok." Percy said.
Everyone else just nodded.
"Ok let's start practicing." Jason yelled. "Duets get together. We have to work extra hard!"
Everyone nodded and walked in their groups. Percy and I walked away together.
"So should we start practicing?" He asked.
"Yeah, of course." I told him.
We sang our song. It sounded pretty good, if I do say so myself.
(Percy-Italics, Annabeth-bold, Both-underline)
If you're not the one for me
Then come I can bring you to your knees
If you're not the one for me
Why do I hate the idea of being free
And if I'm not the one for you
You've gotta stop holding me the way you do
Oh honey, if I'm not the one for you
Why have we been through what we have been through
It's so cold out here in your wilderness
I want you to be my keeper
But not if you are so reckless
If you're gonna let me down
Let me down gently
Don't pretend that you don't want me.
Our love ain't water under the bridge.
We sang like that for hours. Our voice blended into one. I looked at the time. It was 7:00.
"Percy, its 7:00!"
"Yeah, so."
"I have to be home at 7:00!"
"Oh yeah, come on, let's go."
We ran to his car and got in. He drove to my house quickly. We got there within an hour.
"Hey Percy, did you have dinner?"
"No, why?"
"Come on. I'll make dinner."
"What about your mom?"
"She gets home around 10:00. It's fine."
"Ok, if you say so."
He came in and took off his shoes. I went to the kitchen and started making spaghetti. As I was making the spaghetti, Percy called me.
"Annabeth!"
"Yeah?"
"How do you use the tv?"
"Seriously, Percy?"
"Well, I'm a seaweed brain."
I went in the living room and showed him how to use the remote. I went back to the kitchen to finish. 15 minutes later, I finished the spaghetti. It was on one big plate with two forks on sides.
We sat down on opposite sides of the table. He took his fork in hand and I took mine. We twirled our forks into the spaghetti and picked up some. We started slurping up the food. One stand of spaghetti was really long. Percy and I were slurping it up at the same time. We leaned in closer and closer. Unknowingly, we both ended up with our lips on each other's. We pulled away and laughed.
Throughout the whole dinner, Percy was cracking jokes and making puns.
"I'm blessed from my head tomatoes to have dinner with you."
"Ha ha, very funny, Percy."
"See you tomorrow, Annabeth."
"See ya, Percy."
As he drove away, I sat on my bed, daydreaming of Percy. Oh, how much I love him.
