Percy had never been to concert before. In fact, he found the whole thing a little culty. I mean, everyone standing around chanting and singing together? The concept was strange to him.
That was until Annabeth performed. He watched as she nervously fiddled with her outfit, shooting him an exasperated look.
'Do i look okay?'
He scanned he frame up and down. She was dressed in a sparkly set, consisting of a white top and matching shorts that showed off her legs. He had never seen her in something so flashy, but he thought it looked gorgeous.
'You look great Beth. Stop stressing.'
She sighed and turned to face the mirror, frowning at herself slightly.
'You're right. I haven't done a concert in like a month! What if it goes bad! Plus, this is the arena that i completely fell over in last time - there were memes for ages!'
Percy couldn't help laugh at her outburst. He walked over and placed his hands on her shoulders as she frowned up at him.
'Stop laughing at me.' She pouted, causing his grin to grow.
'Beth, you'll do amazing. Besides, your fans love you. Im pretty sure you could do the worst performance ever and they would still adore you.'
Percy knew that he would.
She nodded slightly and relaxed in his grasp, looking at him with relief in her eyes.
'Thank you Percy, you always know what to say.'
He opened his mouth to reply, but was cut off by the sound of a bell ringing and a man calling Annabeth's name.
'Oh crap.' She shot up, walking towards the man. 'Go back to your seat Percy, I'm on in 5!'
He watched her figure disappear behind a curtain, and smiled, walking back to sit with his friends.
His eyes glanced around the arena. It was packed. He remembered how quickly the tickets sold out, and gulped nervously for Annabeth. There must be at least 25,000 people in here!
Leo waved at him from the crowd, and he walked back over and sat down with his friends. They all grinned at him, before chatting amongst themselves again.
He wasn't prepared for the screaming as soon as the lights dimmed.
Everyone in the arena cheered in celebration as the room turned black, video of baby Annabeth appearing on the screen. His eyes softened as he watched.
'Annabeth! What do you want to be when you grow up?' Her father asked, causing the three year old to scrunch up her face, thinking.
Her eyes lit up and she pointed at the camera.
'A rockstar!'
Her dad chuckled and the arena screamed so loud Percy was sure he would be deaf afterwards.
Strobe lights lit up the stage, revealing Annabeth standing confidently in the middle.
'Okay Texas. Lets do this!' She spoke into the mic, and the crowd rioted as the music to one of her most popular songs started playing.
Percy watched for the next hour and a half as she sung, in complete awe of the girl. She danced around and interacted with her fans, making his heart melt. She looked so happy.
Plus, she was an amazing singer. Percy was aware of her songs before, but he didn't realise how many he actually knew before the show. Apparently, she had a lot of bangers.
'Thank you so much for choosing to spend your evening with me!' She yelled as she took a gulp of water. 'There's only a couple songs left, but you've all been amazing and i'll be back soon! Get home safe!'
She twirled as the last song started playing, and Percy and his friends watched in happiness as the girl lit up the stage. Everyone was having the best time.
She had really made an impression on everyone this week. It was hard to imagine how the group was before her now. Her and Hazel were incredibly close, and Percy watched as Hazel teared up, eyes full of love directed at her friend.
He felt the exact same.
He watched as she ran over to their side of the stage and shot them a wink and little wave.
He adored this girl.
