Well, I know it's been a while but sadly, I have had writer's block and no inspiration on this story. So I'm going to write one more after this one and then I'll make this series complete. Sorry if you requested a song that I never got to but I promise I tried…but nothing worked. It's horrible I know..but if anyone wants to take my idea and do their own not songfics…by all means do it! PM me and I'll even read and review it. Anyway on with the story: Bring Me to Life by Evanescence.

The war was over. Luke was dead. Percy was alive. I was alive. That's all that really registered in my mind these days. For a daughter of Athena, that was a pretty horrible thing.

Well, something else had domain in my mind: Percy. And he never left. Luke did; after he died I had felt hurt for a while but that void was filled with Percy. The joy I felt for being alive was also replaced with Percy. Everything revolved around him now. You would think I would feel happy, but no, I was numb. The only explanation I could come up was: I missed Percy.

These past few weeks, I've been living a lie. I could put on a mask and pretend to live. But there's nothing inside. I'm frozen inside without his touch, without his love. Only he seemed to be the life among my dead. And being stuck at his school was really taking its toll.

The worst part about feeling like this is all the free space in my mind to concentrate on him more. He was only one who didn't waver under my gaze. How can he see into my eyes like open doors? How could he bid my blood to run while so many others leave me dormant? He was the only one for so many things.

Percy could save me from what I had become, I was sure of it. Sadly, I couldn't leave this school until December. That was months away. And without a soul, my spirit would be sleeping somewhere cold, colder than the weather I would be enduring in New York, until Percy could find it and lead it back home. He had to get to me before I come undone. He had to save me from the nothing I had become without him. Until then, I won't be able to wake up from my trance. Until then, I would wait for him to bring me to life.

I just hope he didn't need the same of me.

Christmas break. I'd never been so happy to leave a school. Camp was calling my name, or maybe that was just my imagination…

No, I don't think it was. I looked up at Half-Blood Hill. Something was definitely calling me, something was stirring inside me. It could only be described as desire. And it felt great to feel something again.

As I climbed past the hill, I could see Percy's cabin. And I knew he was in there, probably attempting to unpack. I could feel it. It was weird: I had felt more in the past few minutes than I had in the past few months.

I was coming out of the dark I had been kept in. I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems and now my eyes got the chance to take everything in, more specifically, Percy. All this time, I couldn't believe his presence would make things better.

"Annabeth," His voice seemed to melt away all the ice around my heart. My numbness was finally receding…

"Percy," His name wasn't enough for my lips. Something inside me had woken up, and it was stronger than any desire I had felt before.

Without a moment's hesitation, my lips were on his. And he responded by wrapping his arms around me and pulling me into the doorway of his cabin and closing the door. All I could think was 'save me'.

And that he did do. It was as if I was leading him down into my core, where I had become so numb and without a thought, without a voice, and without a soul, he wasn't going to let me die there. There must've been something more to him than I had originally thought because he could bring me back. And now that he knows what I'm without, he couldn't leave me. And throughout that kiss, I could feel that he thought the same.

"I see you've missed me," His voice broke the silence. I realized that we had stopped kissing already and it had been a few moments.

I opened my eyes and what I saw surprised me: Roman campers in front of me and our Greek campers behind me. Percy was wearing purple and his green eyes looked different. They held a new light that I wasn't accustomed to. Something was different. I wasn't here a moment ago. I felt like I had just skipped months of my life…and then it all came back: Percy going missing, my hunt for him, finding Jason, Leo building the ship, or trip over here… I gasped and was finally able to breathe again, "I guess you could say that." And everything did feel different now…I felt alive.

Only he could bring me to life.

That had to be the shortest thing I've ever written. But I guess it turned out good. Tell me what y'all think. Thanks for reading!
