Percy POV

"Okay Percy, you got this." I quietly reassure myself. "You are bad boy player supreme. You got this." Letting out a breath I smoothed my freshly ironed clothes down, smelt my bouquet of flowers and knocked on Annabeth's front door.

On this episode of The Bachelor…

I, Percy Jackson will be asking Annabeth Chase to accompany me at the halloween dance.

I had seven days to ask her and for the past five, I had chickened out.

Every chance I got seemed to be interrupted by a parent or friend and soon enough, the sun hurdling towards earth.

The dance was in two days and I'd be damned if she went by herself, or worse, with someone else.

So I decided that today I grab my love life by its blue balls and take control.

I heard shuffling from the inside and soon enough the door was open and in the doorway stood Mr. Chase.

"Percy, such a lovely surprise." He pointed to the flowers, "those for me?" He said with a small smile.

I laughed and shook my head, "no sir, this are for your daughter."

He nodded and moved away from the door beckoning me to come inside. "I see, well she is upstairs in her room."

I gave him a look of gratitude and started up the stairs to Annabeth's room.

I had really hoped Annabeth would have been the one to open the front door, now I have to go through the whole knocking process again.

I let out a deep breath, made a list of all the things that could go wrong, (there are a lot) decided that I could do this, and then I knocked.

The music playing inside stopped and the door slowly creaked open.

The door is only opened up half a quarter but there inside I could see Annabeth Chase with her cold gray eyes, hair thrown up in a messy bun and dressed in sweats.

Upon seeing me her eyes widened as she took in the sight of me and flowers and opened the door fully. She crossed her arms and spoke first, "What are those for."

I stepped inside and shut the door, "Not what. Who. And the who is you."

She smiled and sat down on the foot of her bed, "Okay Dr. Seuss, and why are you giving me flowers?"

I stood in front of her and held the flowers out, she took them.

I let out a deep breath and said what I had recited all night, "because, I have been hopelessly in love with you for what seems like an eternity now, and I want you on my arm at the halloween dance."

She looked up at me and opened her mouth, when no words came out she looked down at the flowers in her hand. They were white roses.

I waited for an answer and when she did not give me one I sat beside her. We weren't touching. Our legs were both hanging off the bed. There was a good 10 inches between us.

She just looked down at the roses, lightly touching the petals.

"You can say no, i'll just go with Leo or something." I rubbed the back of my neck, "It'll look kinda gay but-" my words were cut off when Annabeth's legs were thrown around my waist, straddling me. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and grinned.

"You can single handedly break my heart." She touched her nose to mine, "and i'm ready to risk that." She closed her eyes and breathed me in. "Because I love you too."

I quickly grabbed her by the waist and flipped over her so I know had her back pressed against the bed while I was the one straddling her.

I held her wrist down and buried my face in her neck, slowly sucking on the skin there I muttered, "I'll take it as a yes."

The open window brought in the cool air that sent chills down my back. I had taken off my fancy clothes to reveal the basketball shorts and wife-beater underneath. Annabeth had taken off her sweatpants and put on shorts of her own. We sat in the center of her room, on the floor. She sat in my lap while my back rested against her bed. Her head was rested on my back while I quietly played with her hair. I couldn't see her eyes, but I could tell she was starting to doze off.

I started to shut my eyes myself when Annabeth's voice brought me awake.

"Do you ever realize how much life we have left." I kept my fingers moving in her hair and replied, "What do you mean?"

She turned around and straddled me, causing me to drop my hands from her hair to her hips. She may have almost dozed off a second ago but now she was wide awake.

"Like, my mom was 48, to some that's kinda old." She wrapped her hands around my neck and rested her head on my shoulder. "But, she had so much of her life left for her. I'm 17." She looked back at me, "I have so much life ahead of me. And so do you!" There was so much light in her wide eyes. I wished she always looked like this.

She jumped up and started pacing. She ranted, "I mean, one day i'm gonna wake up, go to some boring ass job, then come home to some guy and kids." She was running her hands through her hands and walking all over the room. "Percy, I don't want that! I want a great ass job with some good ass pay and a hot ass husband and great kids." Once she finished she flopped onto the bed.

I stood up and smiled at her before flopping down right next to her.

I wrapped my arms around her waist causing her to squirm. Once she gave up on escaping she curled up into me.

Into her ear I whispered, "You know, i'd make some cute ass kids."

A laugh escaped her mouth as she kissed my neck before finally shutting her eyes and slowly falling into a deep, pleasant sleep wrapped in my arms.

Do you know how difficult it is to write when your in a room with ten stoners all playing "guess that body part" LOL

Hope you enjoyed!
