DISCLAIMER: I don't own Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

Percy

I kind of made up with Annabeth I guess. Well I did just leave at the top of the hill but if I stayed there any longer I don't know what could have happened.

Now I was on my bed, at home, bored. So this is why I stayed in Manhattan. At least there I could drink sexy girl blood when I got bored. There are absolutely no hot girls in Perish Creek that I'd actually feed on. I mean pretty much everyone here is a hunter. And if I kill one, I'm basically trying to suicide.

Then again, I'm not technically alive, am I? I was born this way, but that means I was born dead. Or wait…

Just forget it…

I heard the doorbell ring and I decided to ignore it. For all I knew it could be Thalia with a stake in her hand. Well, maybe a gun full of wooden bullets, since stakes are kind of old school. But all in all, stakes are way more effective.

The doorbell rang again. This time, the person kept ringing it…again and again and again.

I finally got up to open the door.

"Percy, thank God, why'd you take so long?" asked Travis. "Never mind that, you need to know something."

"What?"

Connor answered, "Luke…I think we saw him at the edge of the forest. Percy, you need to watch out, he's really close."

Luke…now he's back. Well he's more Kronos now than Luke. Kronos was my…uh…grandfather I guess. He was kind of a mix of all three of the supernatural species. He could turn into a werewolf and only fed on blood while he had a Mark (a scythe) and enjoyed killing…a lot.

"How close?"

"If he's still there, then you're less than a mile away."

"Shit."

"Well said, my friend," mumbled Travis, shutting the door behind him.

"We need to tell Tha-"

Connor interrupted me, "Hell no. She'll go to him Percy. And since she doesn't have you or Nico dead, Kronos might kill her."

"But Luke wouldn't. He loves her. She'll find out soon enough and for all we know she might have been the one to call him here."

"Because you and Nico are here," he said in realization. "Then at least tell Nico and Annabeth. They're in danger too. Annabeth barely knows how to fight she can't protect herself from Kronos."

"Then I'll protect her."

It was late by the time we got to Nico's cabin. The lights inside were on but nobody was inside. Annabeth and Nico were leaning against the side of the house, and seemed to be chatting freely. The Stolls and I walked up to them and they stopped. Nico grinned.

"Back for your girlfriend huh?"

"Nico this is about Luke."

His grin faded and he walked inside the cabin leaving Annabeth and the rest of us to follow. He closed the door and locked it behind him, leaning his back against it as he looked from me to the Stolls and back. From the corner of my eye, I could see Annabeth sitting down on the bed and crossing her legs.

"So," began Nico. "Where is the asshole now?"

"He's about a mile away from my house."

"Shit."

"Wait, wasn't he Thalia's boyfriend or something?" asked Annabeth, tilting her head to the side. "He's the one who wants you two dead and is being possessed by your evil grandfather, right?"

"Yup," I answered then turned to Nico. "You filled her in?"

"Pretty much…so what are you going to do? Telling Thalia-"

"I was thinking of staying here, in this cabin."

This time, Annabeth objected, "Why? Isn't there somewhere else?"

Nico turned to her and said, "I think this will be good. I'm not here most of the time anyway. If something happens, you'll at least have another person with you. And Percy can't stay anywhere else because hunters don't really like werewolves and vampires so-"

"Well I'm a hunter too!"

"But you are a nice hunter."

The Stolls coughed loudly, pointing to themselves.

"You guys too," I said.

"So Percy, you can stay. The Stolls will send your blood here. I'm going to head out and see what I can find out about Luke. Stolls, you guys make sure Thalia doesn't know about Luke. Keep her away from this," said Nico, unlocking the door and leaving, the Stolls closing the door behind them as they left too.

I turned to look at Annabeth, who was scowling at me, and I realized that I hadn't thought this through. I had to live in the same house as her. And since Nico was barely here, it was just going to be us.

"Damn it," I mumbled, feeling like an idiot. Then I cleared my throat and said, "Uh, you can sleep if you want. It's kind of late."

She said nothing and continued to glare at me, her stormy grey eyes penetrating me. I gulped.

"I'm really sorry, I wasn't thinking," I said quickly. "I'll sleep on the floor. Yeah, you can just…yeah."

Getting up and walking to the lamp, she turned it off. Then she was on the bed and pulled the covers up to her chin.

"Good night," I said. She didn't answer.

The next morning I found myself on the floor. Getting up, I saw Annabeth was still sleeping soundly in the bed. I guess I'll have to get more used to sleeping on the floor. I went to the drawer to pull out a towel and I walked outside to the bathroom and shower. I had always found that weird: how there was a bathroom connected to the cabin but the door to it was outside, which for some reason didn't have a lock. Nico seriously need to take care of some things…

I turned on the hot water and got in. The only shampoo in there was lemon scented, and the soap was…well girl soap. It seems Annabeth has really made herself at home. When I was finished, I smelled like a girl. Wrapping the towel around my waist, I got out. There was still only one mirror there, like there was a long time ago. There was a large crack that ran from the top right to the middle. It hasn't changed at all.

Neatly stacked on the counter, there were some hand towels. I picked one up and began drying my hair. Then the door opened.

See, locks are needed.

Annabeth saw me and her eyes widened. He surprised expression then turned into a scowl.

"What the hell are you doing here?" she asked.

"I took a shower. By the way, your soap smells nice," I answered, deciding to have some fun. "But it's still very girly. How does Nico stand using that stuff? Oh, right, he's almost never here."

"Get out, I need to shower."

"Go ahead. Don't worry I'll try not to look."

Smirking, I continued to dry my hair. Thank you, somewhat long hair that takes slightly longer to dry. She continued to stand there, glaring at me. I turned to her again.

"Oh, I'm sorry," I said, stepping towards her. Her back hit the counter and I put my hands on either side of her so she couldn't move. "Me being naked make you uncomfortable by any chance? Oh, you must be a virgin…"

She pushed me away from her and pointed to the door. I grinned and walked out, shutting it behind me. I waited in the cabin for her, and when she came in, she was again scowling.

"For some reason I hoped that you'd be wearing a towel," I said, as she went to the refrigerator and pulled out a bottle of water.

"I'm not as stupid as you are. And you left me no hot water at all."

"Then you should take a shower with me next time."

She slammed the refrigerator door shut.

"What's wrong with you? You were the one who came here because of Luke or something and if he really is as bad as you say he is then why the hell are you being a perverted asshole when you should be doing something? Nico's out there, and so are the Stoll brothers and what if something happens to them, huh? How can you be such an idiot?"

My heart sank as I saw tears begin to stream down her face.

A/N: Annabeth is crying… :'(

Well I hoped you liked the chapter. I always enjoy writing Percy acting a bit perverted, because it's really amusing.

So, I've been thinking of starting a new story, and guess what?

You guys get to choose what story! Yay you!

I'll put up the options in the next chapter most likely. And please guys, I am doing this for you so VOTE! By doing so, you can really change the world…of fan fiction. :D

Reviews guys? Ideas? Come on, I'm not getting any younger here!
