Annabeths POV
I had been upset and off all week. How could Percy think I need taken care of? I am a grown women, I don't need people telling me the do's and don'ts.
Percy isn't involved in this. Or is he? I'm not sure, but I still don't need him thinking I need protection. I don't.
But the truth is, I would be lying if I didn't say I missed him like crazy. I didn't answer any of his calls, I didn't talk to him about it. I had gone almost five whole days without seeing him.
I was thinking of this as I walked down the street towards Starbucks. I went in and ordered a coffee and muffin. I ate my muffin and drank my coffee in gloom.
Are we broken up? I thought. I furrowed my eyebrows thinking of it. No we aren't, we are just taking a break. Yeah, that's it. A temporary break.
But it still left me feeling upset and angry while I sat in the popular cafe. I payed for my things and just sat in the booth outside. I got up and started walking out the cafe. When I reached the door, I opened it and was met with the chilly weather and I knocked into someone.
"Sorry." I said, then looked up. I felt my heart lurch and my knees weaken. "Percy." I said, breathlessly. He furrowed his eyebrows, gave a nod and arrived on walking down the street.
I caught up to him, confusion still on my face. "Just because I'm angry with you doesn't mean that we can't still great each other!" I said, walking next to him. He huffed and looked down at me.
"Oh, so you're done giving me the silent treatment?" He asked, annoyance in his voice. I rolled my eyes and said, "I'm angry, not having verbal constipation."
We neared the car park. "Oh yeah, you're angry at me for something that comes with having a boyfriend." He said, still walking. "Percy, I just need you to tell me that you understand what I'm cross about, then we can go back to being us."
He rolled his eyes and said, "So there is actually still sometin between us?" I gaped a bit. "Why wouldn't there be?" I asked. "Well I can't do this, can't be a boyfriend if you won't let me care. Not caring, is not loving. " He said, staring me in the eyes, then going off to his car and leaving.
I furrowed my eyebrows. How could I go without Percy? Was I maybe taking this slightly incorrectly? Well if he isn't going to say anything, maybe I need to do something. But how?
