Thalia Grace
(A/N):
Five reviews on one chapter? I am shook.
Enjoy!
Thalia's POV:
Thalia winced as she slammed her spear against another camper. She loved the satisfaction of winning Capture The Flag, but she didn't like beating up poor inexperienced campers.
As she fought, her mind drifted to Annabeth. They hadn't spoken much, mostly because the daughter of Athena was busy with 'something important'. She wondered how things were between her and Percy. The idiot was still too oblivious to notice that Annabeth had a ginormous crush on him for a long time. She was pretty disappointed that Percy hadn't asked her out already.
"I hate this place," her second-in-command, Phoebe, muttered.
"Hey, show some respect. This place has history." One of her Hunters came running towards her.
"What's wrong?"
"It makes sense! They knew we were going to do a divide and conquer sort of thing, so they sent a group to intercept our offence, as another group charged on our defence."
"And how does that help me?"
Phoebe rolled her eyes. "They're going for the flag! You have to help the defences to keep the flag out of enemy arms. We have things under control here. Hurry and help the defences."
Thalia nodded, sprinting towards their base. What she saw made her blood boil.
Percy Jackson was sprinting for the river.
With their flag.
The only thing that made her angrier was that he was almost there.
With a cry, she ran, jumping over rocks and roots. He could not win. He wasn't allowed to win.
She slowly gained on him until she was two feet of him when he was arriving at the river's edge.
In a last-ditch attempt, she tackled him midair, attempting to pull him back, but she had too much momentum on her side. They landed hard on the opposing side.
Percy yelled out in joy at his luck and got up beside her. Campers surrounded him, cheering as he raised his flag in victory. The flag shimmered and changed into a bright orange with a pegasus galloping across.
She scowled. But she'd be lying if she said she wasn't impressed.
Annabeth pushed her way to the front, grinning from ear to ear. "Good job, Seaweed Brain."
The next thing she did shocked the crap out of Thalia.
Annabeth stood on her tiptoes and pressed her lips to his.
What surprised her even more was the fact that the other campers went about their own business, like this wasn't anything new. She gaped at them.
She had been pretty sure that the world would end before Percy asked Annabeth out. But she realized that she had been waiting for it. She had been the one of the first ones to find out about Annabeth's crush on Percy. She had also bet on when the thick headed idiots would get together.
"It's about time!" she said, clapping her hand on Percy's shoulder. He broke away from Annabeth, blushing.
"What?"
"Oh, I don't know," she said, feigning thought. "Just the fact that I had to wait for two years for you two to get together?"
They exchanged a look. "What?"
"Seriously?"
Annabeth sighed. "Yeah, we're dating, Thalia. It happened."
"Good." She punched Percy's shoulder. "You'd better not hurt her."
"Okay, okay." He rubbed his shoulder. "The point would've gotten through without the punch."
"Eh, I just like punching people."
He chuckled. "Yeah, you do."
She totally knew they were going to get together.
