I'M ALIVE!
okay these are a little random
Food Baby
'I'm dying!' she moaned, falling back on the bed dramatically.
'You're dying?' he asked sceptically, propping himself up on his elbows as he lay next to her, his head by her feet.
'Yes, I really shouldn't have eaten that last piece of cheesecake.'
Percy laughed and she scowled at him.
'Just because you can eat enough to feed an army and still stay skinny.' She poked his belly, which was flat and hard as he tensed up against her attack.
'You're hardly fat Annabeth!'
'Look at me! I have a major food baby going on here!'
He stared at her blankly, 'a food baby?'
'Yes,' she insisted, pulling her shirt up to show him.
He rolled his eyes at her,' stop being ridiculous, you're gorgeous.'
'I don't feel gorgeous,' she grumped.
'Well you look it,' he said leaning forward to kiss her.
Scared
'Percy I'm scared,' she whispered, causing a crater sized hole in his heart.
Annabeth wasn't supposed to be scared; she was strong and grave and brilliant, but this place had sucked it all out of her.
He squeezed her hand, 'we'll be okay Annabeth. We can do this.'
'I want to go home,' the innocence of the expression took the wind out of him and he stopped and faced her, feeling for her face in the dark. His hands came up on either side of her face and she latched onto them, gripping them tightly.
'Shh,' he murmured. 'It's okay.'
'Not it's not, I don't want to do this anymore, I don't want to be here, I just want to go home.'
'I know, I know.' His face was close to hers, he could feel her breath – fast and sharp – on his face. 'And we will, I promise, we will go home Annabeth.'
She sniffed, 'together.'
He kissed her on the lips, 'together.' – a whispered promise in the great darkness around them.
Hiccups
'Hic.'
Her squeak reached Percy from the other side of their apartment. He shook his head and returned his attention back to the textbook he was trying desperately hard to read.
'Hic.'
He sighed, and looked over at Annabeth who was sat at the breakfast bar, bent over her work.
'Hic.'
He set down his book and stood up silently, walking over slowly…
'Hic.'
He was careful not to make a sound as he crossed the apartment to her.
'Hic.'
He was a metre away, close enough to smell her shampoo and see the scribbled annotations on her work.
'Hic.'
'RAAAHHHH!' he grabbed her around the waist.
'AHH! Percy what the Hades?!' she spun around in his grasp and smacked his shoulder.
He looked at her for a moment as a slow smile grew on his face.
'There, they're gone.'
'What—oh, the hiccups. Sorry.'
'It's okay, I was kind of bored of studying anyways.'
His arms tightened around her waist and her hands went to his chest, keeping him at a slight distance.
'Percy, you have a test tomorrow—'
'—afternoon,' he finished. 'And you could help me study…'
He leaned forward and kissed the soft patch of skin at the edge of her jaw – just below her ear, and she hummed contently.
'But it's really important…' she insisted weakly.
He bent to the other side, kissing below her other ear softly and felt her shudder slightly.
'It can wait.'
'Percy—'
'Mm?' he hummed against her throat, feeling her pulse against his lips.
'I…we should…um, study.'
'You don't sound very convincing.' He noted.
Her hands had curled into fists on his chest as he kissed up her neck and along her jawline. Eventually she groaned and took his face in her hands, pulling him roughly to meet her lips. He grinned and pressed her back against the countertop, thoroughly glad she had gotten hiccups in the first place.
Hugs
They were waiting for Sally outside the apartment she shared with Paul; the three of them were going for lunch together. Percy and Annabeth didn't see all that much of her now that they were attending college and sharing their own apartment. Annabeth stood reading a book – they had finals in a couple of weeks and she was taking every opportunity to cram, Percy on the other hand was taking a leave-it-until-the-night-before-and-freak-out-then approach. He fidgeted around nearby, kicking stones on the sidewalk and flipping his pen between his hands.
Annabeth tried to ignore him, focusing completely on her book instead; she had just reached the bottom of the page when a sudden warmth curled around her back and Percy's arm draped around her shoulders.
'What are you doing?' she asked softly.
'Just wanted to hug you,' he murmured back, resting his head on top of hers.
She smiled, forgetting about the book in her arms and leaned back against him.
At that moment, Sally appeared from the building, she stopped realising the two demigods hadn't noticed her and watched them for a moment. They really were adorable together.
Annabeth looked up and smiled at her, 'Sally! Hey.'
'Hello you two,' she smiled as Percy disentangled himself from his girlfriend to wrap his mom in a tight hug.
'Hey mom,' he murmured.
'Someone's in a very hugging mood today,' Annabeth grinned as he released Sally.
He took her hand, 'are you objecting?'
'Definitely not, I love hugging Percy.'
'Come on you two,' Sally interrupted. 'Let's get some lunch.'
'Yes definitely!' Percy agreed enthusiastically, making the other two laugh.
