Percy's POV

"Well technically we didn't bring her... you actually got matched, with uh... 3510!" Silena laughed nervously.
"The Seaweed Brain, the "break-up" the "designing" Rachel..." I said to myself.
"Yah... all of that stuff was Annabeth..."
"And you knew too!" I whisper yelled at Beckendorf.
"Yep..." He smiled.
"Oh my gods, oh my gods... What am I going to do? Wait does she know?"
"Nope... but she will soon..."

Annabeth's POV
I saw Silena run over to these two guys, one African American, the other tanned with black hair, and green eyes, who looked oddly familiar.
"Who the Hades is that?" I screamed at Nico who came over here.
"Uhhh..."
"We would like to tell you but we'd rather not for you know our safety." Thalia laughed nervously.
"Then why does he look so fami- Percy? You brought him here?" I looked at them closely and saw in their eyes they didn't.
I thought "So... who brought him here?
Wait... Rachel... "Break-up"... his stupid-ness... 8260?"
"Yep it's him alright..."
"So what, why are we here? Can I leave or what?"
Thalia and Nico started to laugh.
"What?"
"You're not going anywhere..." They said. And with that they dragged me into the booth while Beckendorf kept Percy there so he couldn't move.
"I'm not going in there!" I screamed.
"What you're scared?" Thalia teased.
"No I just utterly hate him." As I said this Percy's cute smile from Thalia's joke turned into a sad disappointed frown and I completely regretted it.
"If she doesn't want to sit don't make her because obviously she hates me." Said a voice I loved that I've never heard in such a long time.

Percy's POV
When she said that my self-esteem completely crumbled down. (A/N Heheh when I read this over again I started laughing hysterically.)
"If she doesn't want to sit don't make her because obviously she hates me." I finally said.
Annabeth looked at me sympathetically and sat down. While the others left relieved.
"Why, are you like that Percy? Shouldn't you hate me?" She asked.
"I can't... I never stopped." (A/N ewwww corny! Ha-ha I know I wrote it.)
When I said that I swear I saw her face light up which made me smile. Self-esteem back up 10%!

Soon, silence was spread over while I just stared at little details of the restaurant awkwardly taking in everything.
"So..." I said.
"So..."
"Why are you here?" I asked.
"'Cause you asked me to come..." She gave me a small smile.
"Of course..."I laughed.
"So, you look great. I really like the dress..." I smiled admiring her hair and purple dress with a chain around the waist. Wow I sound weird...
"Thanks so do you..." She said pointing at my tux.
"Annabeth..." I said quietly.
"Please Percy, stop trying to apologize." She frowned obviously remembering everything, why she came and what happened to us before. "I should go..." She grabbed her purse and started to walk to the door. I ran after her and caught her arm.
"Wait! Can I at least buy you dinner? Isn't that what you came here for?" I asked hopefully, I needed to talk to her.
"Really? Are you sure?"
"Yes I'm sure." And I looked into her silver-grey eyes waiting for an answer.
"Fine... but not here. It's too fancy."
"Sure, why not."

Annabeth's POV
Oh why did I do this? Why did I agree? I can't help it I just want to hug him and cry saying sorry. But, no, that would be awkward. He obviously hates me and is just doing this to be nice. So, now we were walking through Central Park and I was trying to avoid walking close to him.
"So what do you want?" He asked looking at me with those stupid but loving green eyes. Darn him! Darn him I tell you!
"I don't know a hot dog I guess..."
"Sure." He walked over to the stand without even asking what I wanted on it. Soon he came back with my favourite: Two ketchups, two relishes, and one mustard. (A/N that's my favourite!)
"You remembered?" I asked him in awe.
"Yep." He said proudly. Darn him and his stupid but cute cockiness to Tartarus!" (A/N I thought I spelled it wrong. So, I checked my book Mythlopedia Oh My Gods and it was right so I started doing a happy dance!)
"Okay then..."

We started to walk eating in silence while I was taking little nibbles he practically swallowed his whole! Then he noticed I was cold, so he offered me his jacket. Gods why didn't I bring a stupid sweater! WHY!
"Annabeth are you okay?" He finally asked concerned.
"Yep, just wonderful..." I answered harshly but quietly so he wouldn't hear.
We started walking and I asked told him I wanted to go home.
"Yah, okay sure let's go back to the restaurant and I'll get the car." He explained.
"No, I want to walk." I objected.
"But its co-"
"I want to walk." I interrupted.
"Sure, I'll walk with you."
"I'm fine."
"I'm not leaving you alone in the streets." I just ignored him and started walking; footsteps were heard behind me so I looked back to see the person I never wanted to see tonight.
"Annabeth, wait up!"
"Bye Percy!" I said as I neared my apartment. He ran up to me as I climbed up the stairs and walked in.
I walked into the elevator and Percy came running in.
"We need to talk." He said, holding my arm.
I yanked away and gave him his jacket as the elevator door opened.
"Annabeth!" He yelled.
"What?" I finally screamed.
"I want to talk to you."
"Oh, look at that... I don't!
He grabbed my face and whispered, "I'm sorry."
I just looked away.
Then out of nowhere he kissed me straight on the lips! After ten seconds of me just standing there surprised, my instincts took over and I started to kiss him back. And, I swear he smiled. Until we heard an old lady come by, and say:
"Awe! What a cute couple! But take it inside!" She said waving her walking stick. (A/N Ha-ha! Oh I love that part! Anyways if the "kiss" wasn't detailed, I'm not very comfortable writing those kinds of moments...)
I pulled away realizing what happened.
"Oh my gods Annabeth I'm so sorry it just happe-"
"No, its fine..." I said dreamily. And, turned around to go inside my apartment.
"Annabeth!" I heard as I closed my door and flopped on my bed touching my lips.
