Annabeth POV:
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGG!
I picked up the phone as Percy was right beside me, his elbows nudging at me. Giving him a glare, I answered the phone call with a, "Thanks for the materials."
"Welcome," Greg's voice boomed as I put the phone down, a wave of exhaust flooding over me.
"Annabeth..." Percy's voice said but I ignored. The tired feeling I was experiencing at the moment was just too strong. I stared at the clock.
10:16.
Breathing in a sigh, I tapped my pencil, feeling myself lean towards the desk only to be feeling sturdy hands on my shoulders, a coat wrapped around me afterwards.
"Let's go Annabeth," Percy whispered in my ear. His warm breath tingled my ear. His lips brushed against the back of my earlobe making me blush, facing him before he kissed my cheeks, me blinking for a several times.
He smiled.
"Are we going?" he asked and I sighed.
"Yeah," I whispered, straightening the papers from the desk and transfering them in my folder to my work bag. "Let's go."
After packing the rest of my work inside the work bag, Percy grasped my hand as we walked together out the office towards the elevator.
Well...we were the only ones.
The whole AOJ Inc. shuts down at ten, but we had stayed for some extra minutes due to the heavy work load both of us got. His jacket was wrapped around mine as I felt warmed up already.
"Thanks Peter," I winked as he looked as if he would melt.
"It is my pleasure," he smirked as we walked out the building. The cold air immediately made me shiver, Percy gripping on my shoulders tighter as the coat was draped over my shoulders better.
"You should be toasty warm," his cheeks were already red. "It's pretty cold."
I snuggled closer to him, his smile glistening from the parking lot light.
"You are so beautiful, did you know that?" his eyes sparkled as I kissed his lips.
"I am not beautiful, I am rather wise," I smirked as he frizzed my already messy hair.
"You're more beautiful rather than wise," he said as I pushed him aside, a fake glare plastered on my face.
"I am not beautiful for the hundredth time!" I yelled as he scooted towards me, his arms wrapped around me again.
"Fine, you aren't beautiful," Percy said as satisfaction was inside me. Sure, I melted inside when he called me beautiful but in these cases...I won the fight...
"Thank you-,"
"You're rather gorgeous," he smirked as I glared and he laughed, soon opening the car for me to hop in. I nodded my head as I went inside, him soon following inside afterwards.
"It's fall, and it is getting so cold!" Percy rubbed his hands as fog was on the window. "I'm putting on the heater if you don't mind."
"Oh, please do so!" I muttered as he put the heater on, grasping my hands as I leaned towards him.
He rubbed them.
"This should keep them warm," he breathed, rubbing them as I blinked a couple times. Staring at the hands, he pulled it up on the heater, my heart beating faster as he rubbed them. My toes curled up as I felt heat rise on my cheeks.
Please don't say I am blushing.
I breathed slowly as I soon saw Percy who's face was so close to mine. Blinking a couple time, I stared at his lips. He smirked, then winked.
My response was a blink.
He leaned closer, soft breaths coming out of my mouth. I blinked a several times as his eyes were on my lips.
Oh, I hope my lips are pretty.
"Your lips are perfect," Percy whispered, almost as if he read my mind. I stared at him as if he was some creepy mind reader and he chuckled.
"You said that. I was just clarifying..."
Oh man.
I said that out loud?
The tip of his nose touched mine, my mind functioning unclearly as he slowly leaned towards me. I closed my eyes as his lips met mine, the soft goodness moving slowly towards mine. I know kissing inside a car is quite...it isn't unique but something about this let me feel extra sensitive about everything. Not normal kisses; but something meaningful. Something that I could keep in my heart forever. It seemed stupid for me to hold a simple car kiss, but I just couldn't help it.
His lips parted smoothly with mine, but leaned for another kiss. I happily accepted. He kissed my lips with love as I fidgeted with my hands, trying to stop the emotions surge over me.
Percy then pulled away, my heart beating fast. He gave me the most cute smile that I could imagine him smile. I wanted almost to squish his cheeks as he began to grip the steering wheel. Then Percy stared at me and gave me a kiss on the lips.
"You're seriously..." he said as he pulled away, driving out of the parking lot. "You're so...one fact...one fact I can't help but not deny is that I cannot live without you. I don't know how the cranky, stuck up girl that I once known is now here with me, in my car, as we make out. It surprises me."
"I agree," I said, sudden realization striking me. "I used to hate you so bad..."
"How," he asked as we drove out of the exit of AOJ Inc. "How did you think about me the first time?"
"A boy who was born with a silver spoon and had a really bad attitude. I thought you as a spoiled brat who only was fed up with riches. But...when I started to see your motivated look...I thought you an idiot but you started to be smart. You know what I mean?"
"Haha," Percy chuckled. "Well...now thinking about it...I was. But you got to admit, you really were a snotty worker."
"Excuse me?"
We laughed together as he drove towards the resident corner, my mind telling him to drive slower so we wouldn't arrive at my house.
But within a few minutes, we did. I sighed, not wanting to get out from the car. But Percy kissed my forehead and said, "Good night."
I kissed his cheeks as he smiled at me. "Good night Seaweed Brain."
I then walked out the car towards my room, where I slept comfortably...
Percy POV:
"Annabeth is absent today," one co-worker said. "We need her...oh, she just emailed the blueprints! YES!"
I stopped there, immediately shifting my head to the workers walking away.
She's absent.
Absent.
She was perfectly fine yesterday! Why is she all absent? Sick? WHAT?!
Gosh, I am freaking out so bad.
But something about her being absent made me question. Why is she absent? I walked inside the office, sitting down as I saw the blueprints scattered on my desk. Working on the blueprints for several minutes, I still couldn't satisfy myself.
Annabeth...
I rummaged through my pocket, searching for my phone as I clicked on contacts. I was about to click on her phone number until I remembered.
No phones allowed at work time.
Groaning, I studied the blueprints before the presentation happened...
...
"JUST PICK UP!" I yelled at my phone, the Bluetooth on my ears as I tried to contact Annabeth. Work ended pretty early and I felt frustration boil inside of me. Is she ignoring me or something? I shook my head, taking the Bluetooth out of my ear and basically throwing a mini tantrum inside the car.
I soon parked inside the Jackson property, my house lit up as I could smell fresh cookies. Anticipating, I wondered if Annabeth is in there.
Annabeth.
I ran quickly inside only to be greeted with Grover's cheery face.
"Hello Mr. Jackson-,"
"Is Annabeth here?" I interrupted and Grover had a puzzled face.
"No...instead, this pretty girl came in," Grover said and out popped out a girl with kailescope eyes. She glared at me, her fists clenched.
Okay...there were a million questions in my brain.
Why is a girl that I don't know is in my house?
Next question...why is she so mad at me?
The next question after that...what is going on here?
"Excuse me?" I glared at Grover, my eyes flickered with anger.
"Meet Piper," he smiled.
"Welcome, Percy," she glared, her eyes flickered with annoyance.
"Hello, Piper," I showed her the same attitude. I hate this girl...
"Mr. Jackson...speaking of which...where is Annabeth?" Grover asked.
"Who is she?" I instead said.
"Oh...I don't know. She just came in here, saying she wanted to talk to you."
"So, is the cookies involved or..." I asked and she rolled her eyes.
"Let's get this over with..." she muttered and walked up to me, grabbing my hand. "Let's go."
She pulled me out the door towards outside, where she led me to the bench.
"We could be speaking inside-,"
Her lips crashed into mine, my eyes fully open as I pulled her away as quick as I could.
"WHO ON EARTH ARE YOU TO KISS ME-,"
"I know," she looked at me, her eyes flickering with disappointment. "I know you have a girlfriend named Annabeth Chase. I have a boyfriend too. His name is Jason Grace. I love him etc. etc., but it seems like we're in the same state."
"Excuse me-,"
"You better explain all of this to Annabeth. I was threatened to do this. You better...we both better explain to our significant other about this."
"What are you talking about-,"
"Annabeth...she's watching this. All of this. So is my boyfriend. Your grandmother is crazy. She is so crazy. Run. Run away. NOW!" she shrieked as I stood up, tears in her eyes.
"Calm down Piper," I said gruffly. "We both need to talk to my grandmother-,"
"I am done with my job," tears were in her eyes. "I don't want to face your grandmother. No...no...never will I ever face that old hag."
I was silent before she ran away towards her car (there was a car?) and drove away.
Wow.
I yelled in frustration, hopping into my car as I drove towards Grandmother's house. When I exited my car which was parked, I immediately rummaged through my keys and unlocked her house. I walked inside as Grandmother was sipping coffee.
"Grandmother?"
"Oh, my sweet Percy-,"
"WHERE IS ANNABETH!" I screamed and she set her coffee down.
"So you met Piper," she breathed. "She seems like a good daughter in law-,"
"I freakn' love Annabeth, and you're basically..." my voice faltered when I saw Annabeth walk towards me, her eyes red.
"I've been doing this work all day, and right when..." her voice was shaky as her eyes were full of tears. "You seriously didn't love me, huh? Used and-,"
"Grandmother, you will seriously pay for this. Annabeth, come here," I grasped her wrist as she screamed, fighting my grasp as I led her out of the building, my heart racing as a million emotions surged through me.
Anger.
The thought of revenge.
Sadness.
And lastly, worried from the shaky relationship we might have together. Annabeth pinched so hard on my hands that I let go. Annabeth glared at me and slapped my face.
I glared at her, as she had tears on her eyes.
"I told you to let me go," she yelled before she slapped my face again, glaring at her real bad.
"Well, we need to talk-,"
"I believed in you and you just basically..." her voice faltered as I threw my keys down, her eyes widening.
"Perseus Jackson, you have no right to start a tantrum-,"
"You won't hear me out! Wise Girl, what, you think my love is all some stupid game that I plot? You even getting mad at me and not believing me and just looking at a stupid documentary and believing...how could you Wise Girl? I believed in you, you throw a tantrum and just the fact that you fell for everything...love seems like a game to you, doesn't it?"
"Love is a game," she said. "Except when I fell in love with you, the game was broken. It was real love. But you, you put it back to that stupid game."
"No," I yelled. "You are the one...you know what? Will you believe every word my grandmother says?"
"I am ugly," she said. "I am not rich, I am not the perfect daughter in the law...I only know how to cook and clean like a lowly servant-,"
"You better shut your mouth right now," I glared. "You are not a lowly servant. Annabeth, look at me."
Her eyes slowly met mine, and my heart clenched from the tears that were threatening to fall on her beautiful, worn out face.
"You are not a lowly servant. You never meant to be a game for me. I...do you know how much I love you?" I said, my voice wavering. Coming closer to her, she backed away a little as I kept walking forward, her going back a little. "You meant so much to me Annabeth."
"I'm sorry," she said, and started running away. I breathed a heavy sigh as I ran up to her. She was a fast runner alright. But I was definitely faster, catching up to her who was about to cross the bridge. I stopped her, hugging her tight as she pulled away.
"Loving me was a mistake," she yelled as she was about to run again till I stopped her, holding her wrists tightly as I hauled her towards me. She groaned, staring up at me. Then, I made her stop by giving her a pained stare.
"Don't you dare give me that look-,"
"I swear, if you run away from me, I am seriously going to get crazy."
"Percy, I swear-,"
"I will seriously fall of this bridge and basically stay there for hours. And if I feel like getting hypothermia-,"
"Will you stop?" she yelled as I continued.
"I could stay in that water for hours. I really could. If you leave me, I swear...you mean so much to me and leaving me and disappearing away from me will seriously make me crumble."
"You are not serious-,"
"I am right now on the edge," I taunted as Annabeth closed her eyes.
"Get out of that edge."
"No."
"I said, get out of that edge."
"Sorry, but I do not understand a word you are saying."
"PERCY-,"
"Are you going to leave me or not?"
"I am seriously not believing you will be this crazy. I am leaving," she said and walked away. My heart clenched at that minute as I grasped the railing, the sudden betrayal raging inside of me.
"Fine," I whispered. "I don't need to die for you. I am really leaving."
And right when I did, I slipped.
