How did this happen? Chapter 9
Disclaimer: I dont own Percy Jackson and the Olympians
Authors Note: Alrightly then readers, Well here is another chapter, hopefully I put enough Percabeth in this one. Enjoy!
I wake up to see my Wise girl laying on top of me, we are pretty much nose to nose and her hands are resting on my chest. I carefully lay Annabeth down and start to get up. Today is Annabeths real birthday, and I wanted to something special for her in the morning, so I got down stairs snuck some food (Okay it was a lot of food) out of the breakfast area and borrowed a tray. I came in the room and saw Annabeth starting to wake up, so I quickly set up the tray with food and waited for her to be awake fully.
"Percy? How long have you been up?" She asked me sleepily, starting to sit up. Then I pulled, out from behind me, the tray stacked with food from the continental breakfast, (romantic I know) and laid it on her lap. She simply stared at the tray, not sure if she was dreaming or not.
"Well long enough to get this ready!" I smiled, "Happy Birthday Annabeth."
She looked up at me and said, "I love you so much Percy but seriously? I cant eat all of this and after what an amazing day you gave me yesterday, You didnt have to do this."
Then I sat next to her and held her hand, "But I wanted to Annabeth, I love you and there is no end to that. So why should I stop expressing it?"
She smiles at me, and kisses me,"You are so sweet and Cheesy you know that? Help me eat this?" She gestures to the tray.
"Well you see I have already eaten Annabeth, its all for you. I know you wanna eat it."
"I dont wanna look like a pig in front of my boyfriend!"
I kiss her on the lips, " Annabeth, my view of you could never change, okay? You are my Wise girl. My beautiful, smart, funny, sweet Annabeth" She smiles and starts to eat. When she finishes up I pull her into my lap. I poke her belly, she giggles and blushes. I kiss her on the cheek and ask her,
"You all full now?", She looks at me and says, "Yes Percy, how could I not be after that meal!" I laugh slightly and kiss her on the lips.
"You really are beautiful Annabeth. I love you. What do you wanna do today? It is your birthday after all." She thought for a moment and said,
"I want to be here with you Percy. I want to be with the person I love more than anything. I want to spend the day with my Seaweed Brain." She said earnestly, looking me in the eye. Green met gray. Her beautiful, calculating, sparkling gray eyes.
"And I want to be with my wonderful wise girl. The world wouldn't be the same without you." She smiles and when shes about to say something her parents come in the room and say,
"Percy, Annabeth. We need to talk" Uh Oh.
"I have been offered a job in San Francisco and I have accepted. We will be moving next month. " Mr Chase finishes. I cant believe it. Why? Annabeth is going to be across the country? No. No no no no. I cant have that happen. I LOVE her. I look over at Annabeth who is starting to cry. I start to pull her in close to me when she pushes me away.
"How COULD you! I was happy! I found my soul mate and now you want us to live thousands of miles apart! I hate you!" She yelled at her parents. And with that she sprints out of the hotel room, I am left stunned and cant help but give the Chases a disappointed look.
"Annabeth wait!" I say as I run out the door. I look for her everywhere. I mean we are in Greece its not like she knows her way around the place. I stop by the clearing where we looked up at the stars and see her sitting in the frass hugging her knees to her chest. I slowly walk over to her and sit next to her. I wipe away he tears with my hand and cup her face in my hands.
"Annabeth, I dont wanna lose you. Please, I love you. We can work something out. I promise." Sje doesnt reply for a long time, all she does is stare at the ground. Then she speaks.
"Why Percy? With your popularity you would have a girlfriend in less that two weeks." She states simply. I was hurt. She really didnt think that about me, right. She knows I love her, why was she saying this?
"Annabeth stop it. You know I care more for you than I ever could for anyone else. Like you said, we are soul mates, we belong with each other. I love you Annabeth." She looked up at me with her eyes red from tears and her face streaming with them. Then she hugs me and starts to sob, "Im sorry Percy, Im so sorry, I know you love me, I love you Percy." I hug her tightly as she sobs into my chest, soaking my shirt. I stroke her hair.
"Shh shh Its okay Annabeth we will work something out, I promise. I wish I could move there with you." That statement sparked something in Annabeth. She stiffened and pulled away, and she looks up at me hopefully. I suddenly realize what shes thinking. I kiss her right then and there. Her lips locked against mine, its like our lips were made for each other, I have never realized that before. Her hands wrap around my neck and I put my hands on her waist. We finally break apart and she says,
"Lets go tell my parents" I nod.
We walk in the room to find her parents sitting on the sofa, he dad speaking to her step mom about something serious, no doubt planning the move. When they see us they get up but Annabeth told them,
"Mom Dad please sit down and listen to us." They glance at each other and nod at us. They sit down and I start speaking,
"I want Annabeth to move in with me."
