Tutoring Chapter 16

After an hour of talking to Sally and learning more about the crazy stuff Percy did as a toddler Annabeth ended up in Percy's clean room sitting on the couch with her feet in his lap as he ran his hands up and down her bare legs.

"Have you decided if you want to go to UCLA or UofO yet?" Percy asked.

"No I really like UCLA it's an amazing school but so is UofO I don't know what to choose" Annabeth said.

"When are you visiting the schools?" Percy asked trying to keep his own opinions out of the matter, he was really hoping Annabeth would go to UCLA with him, even if they hadn't been together that long.

"The week after districts after they tell me their offers. I'm visiting Oregon first and then going to UCLA. Thalia's really excited to meet some college guys" Annabeth said.

"Isn't she with Luke?" Percy asked confused.

"Yes she is. But according to her what Luke doesn't know won't hurt him" Annabeth said.

"Do you really think she'll cheat on him?"

Annabeth shook her head "In Thalia's head she thinks she will, but she won't do anything except flirt a little bit".

Percy looked down at his hands as they went up and down Annabeth's long legs "What about you?" he asked quietly.

"What about me?" Annabeth asked confused.

"Are you excited to meet college guys?" Percy asked.

Annabeth shook her head, before sitting up and moving so that she was straddling Percy his hands automatically went to her hips, she rested both of her hands on Percy's cheeks making him look at her in the eye. "I'm not going to these schools to scout out potentially hot guys or to even hook with them while I'm there. I'm going to these schools to see if I really want to go there or not. Besides I have an incredibly handsome, soon to be college guy who will be on the very prestigious swim team at UCLA right here in front of me. I don't want anyone else" Annabeth said.

Percy smiled moving her shirt up so that his hands rested on the skin above her shorts "I've never been the jealous or insecure type of boyfriend but with you everything's completely different".

Annabeth ran her hand through her hair as she smiled at him "Is that a good or bad thing?"

"It's diffidently a good thing. But it also means that you're gonna have to put up with me for a very long time because I don't plan on letting you go any time soon" Percy said.

Annabeth smiled resting her forehead on his "I think I can live with that" she said before pressing her lips to his. Percy eagerly responded to the kiss tightening his hold on her hips before moving his arms up the back of her shirt as Annabeth's moved to the hem of his shirt lifting it up.

Both of them pulled away breathing heavy, Percy's shirt was now thrown carelessly on the floor and Annabeth's was bunched up right underneath her breasts.

"Your mom could walk in at any moment" Annabeth said finally able to catch her breath again.

"Believe me she's seen worse" Percy said not thinking clearly.

Annabeth's eyes opened wider and she pulled back so she was clearly able to see Percy "What?"

Percy closed his eyes yelling at himself for blurting that out. "My mom may have walked in on me and Rachel a couple of times" he admitted sheepishly.

Annabeth moved so that she was sitting next to him instead of on his lap "You seriously brought Rachel here to have sex?"

"She was supposed to be at a meeting for her book all day. Are you really upset about this?" Percy asked.

Annabeth sighed "No I'm not upset I just I don't like being reminded that you were ever with Rachel especially in that way. I just don't understand why you were ever with her".

Percy stood up picking his shirt up off the floor and putting it on before sitting down on the end of his bed with his elbows resting on his legs "Neither do I. When I first meet her she was artistic and funny and I enjoyed being with her. I thought she would be the girl who changed me. But all she did was make me worse, I knew what was happening but I just couldn't break up with her. At least not until she hurt you. You are the girl I was looking for, you're the girl who could make me be myself again instead of the jackass I've been for the past three years" Percy said looking her straight in the eye.

"I want to be that girl for you" Annabeth said.

Percy stood up determinedly moving towards her, he stood in front of her pulling her up from the couch and into his chest kissing her hard on the mouth. Annabeth wrapped her arms around his neck kissing him back just as hard.

"You really need to kiss me like that more often" Annabeth said breathlessly.

"Trust me I want to do that the minute I see you" Percy said just as breathlessly.

Annabeth grabbed his hand moving them back to the couch but this time Annabeth sat next him with his arm wrapped around her shoulder "Why don't you then?" she asked grinning.

"I thought we were keeping our relationship a secret until we got to know each other better" Percy said confused.

"I think it's time we went public seaweed brain, I want everyone to know were together" Annabeth said smiling.

"You do realize Rachel is going to make your life hell right?" Percy asked concerned.

"I can handle Rachel, besides she's too scared of Thalia to actually do something. I want everyone to know were dating. I want to be able to kiss you whenever I want" Annabeth said playing with his hair.

Percy smiled "I think I can handle that wise girl. But I am concerned about Rachel".

Annabeth smiled "Don't worry about her, besides we only have two months before we graduate and then we'll never have to see her again".

"I like the way you think" Percy said.

"Which is why I'm the smart one and you're the seaweed brain" Annabeth said laughing.

Percy frowned "Now you're just hurting my feelings".

Annabeth patted his cheek smiling "It's what I do".

"You're a mean girlfriend" Percy said pouting.

Annabeth leaned forward kissing him softly on the lips "I'm I still mean".

Percy shook his head "No, your irresistible" he said pressing his lips to hers again. They moved so that Annabeth was on her back with Percy hovering over her. Again Annabeth's hands were slowly moving up Percy's strong back and stomach. While one of Percy's hand rested underneath her shirt on her toned muscular stomach.

By the time they broke apart both of their shirts were on the floor and they were both breathing heavy. "We should slow down a little" Annabeth said quietly while trying to get her breath back.

"Yeah" Percy said sitting up "I don't think I've ever been kissed like that" he said smiling at her as she sat up.

Annabeth laughed "What Rachel never tried to be the dominate one?"

Percy laughed pulling her into his side "I'm pretty sure you know the answer to that without me getting myself in trouble".

Annabeth pouted "Oh but I like it when you get yourself in trouble".

"Of course you do wise girl" Percy said smiling.

Annabeth smiled resting her head on his shoulder "So where are you going to take me for our first date?"

"I'm not going to tell you, I want it to be a surprise. But you're going to have to wait until next weekend since I'm currently grounded. But I have to admit this is the best grounding I've ever had" Percy said.

"I'd say so; my mom would have never let me left the house if I was grounded. I'd be grounded for a month if I lived with my mom and showed up after curfew" Annabeth said.

"Why don't you live with your mom?" Percy asked.

"She lives in the city so she's closer to her business, she says it's better that I live with my dad. It's really because she just doesn't have the time to raise a teenage daughter, she never did. That's why my parents got divorced" Annabeth said "What about your dad?"

"My parents never got married, dad was still around after I was born but they weren't actually together, he was only around when he wanted to be. When I was four my mom married this absolutely horrible guy named Gabe. He was nothing but an alcoholic gambler; I still don't understand how someone as sweet as my mom could marry that pig. They divorced when I was twelve and she married Paul sophomore year. Ever since I was twelve I've spent the summer with my dad at one of his beach houses" Percy said while playing with her hair.

"Does that mean you'll be going away all summer?" Annabeth asked.

"Yeah were going to Crete in Greece" Percy said.

"Oh" Annabeth said sadly.

Percy smiled lifting her chin so she would look at him "But I talked to him while we were buying my car, he said I could bring my friends with me including you" he said smiling.

"What?"

"Do you want to go to Crete with me for the summer?" Percy asked.

"Of course I do I've always wanted to go to Greece the architecture there is amazing. But I don't know if my parents will let me" Annabeth said.

"We'll figure that out, but I'll do whatever it takes to get you to go to Crete with me" Percy said.

Annabeth smiled kissing Percy hard on the mouth "You are amazing".

Percy smiled but before he could say anything there was a knock on the door making Annabeth's eyes widen since she and Percy still hadn't put their shirts back on. "Percy your mom told me to you guys lunch is ready and to come down stairs" Paul called through the door.

Annabeth dove off the couch grabbing her shirt and quickly putting it on as Percy did the same "Okay we'll be down in a minute" Percy yelled.

Annabeth moved to the bathroom to fix her hair and make sure her clothes didn't look to wrinkled. "Jeez that was close" Annabeth said when Percy wrapped his arms around her waist from behind her.

Percy smiled "Yeah at least he didn't open the door my mom would have".

"That would have been really embarrassing. We should probably get down there before your mom actually does come up here" Annabeth said turning around in his arms to face him.

Percy smiled lightly kissing her lips "Good because I'm starving".

Annabeth rolled her eyes as they left his bedroom but didn't say anything.
