Annabeth POV:

I washed my face to make it look less like I cried and more like I rubbed my eyes because that's something I do a lot so it won't look suspicious. I washed my face again then wiped myself on the front of my sweater. Ok, my eyes almost weren't even red. I looked like I had rubbed my eyes a bit but then stopped just before they became totally bloodshot.

I breathed out a big sigh and walked back to Percy. I took my seat beside him on the counter and right as I sat down, Reyna came to us with our waffles. She set the plates down in front of us and ruffled Percy's hair before going away. I looked at Percy and he was bright red. 'Why are you blushing, doofus,' I asked, kind of curious. 'Huh, what?' Oh, nothing,' he said, looking a bit startled. 'Perce, what's going on?' I asked, now a bit worried. 'Wise Girl, stop worrying about me and have your waffles,' he said then opened his mouth.

I rolled my eyes and cut a piece out of my waffles to feed to him. 'Amazing as always, Reyna,' he shouted as he chewed on the waffle. Reyna stuck her head out through the window in the kitchen. 'Thanks bitchboi.'

Percy gave her a goofy smile and woah, stomach, calm the fuck down. Thals wriggled her eyebrows from behind Reyna then kissed Reyna on the mouth. 'They're always amazing babe.'

…and they're making out. 'Get a room guys, you have a fucking kid that could come down any moment,' I called out. Thalia flipped me off while continuing to play tongue tonsil with Reyna. Percy seemed completely unbothered by their public display of horniness and scarfed down his waffles. 'How the actual fuck did you finish them already,' I said looking down at my half done plates. 'I'm a man of many talents Bananabeth,' he said in a pretend wise tone. I snorted.

In about ten minutes, I was done with my plate. Yes, I know, I'm way slower than Percy. I blame his teenage boyness. We pushed our plates aside and got up. Percy took out his wallet but I stopped him. 'I got it, Perce.'

I left the money on the counter. 'Later, losers,' I called out and again got flipped off in response, this time by Reyna. I shook my head; I really loved them a lot. Shame I didn't get to see Elyse today though, she's a proper sweetheart.

Percy POV:

We went out the door and on to the street and I pulled Annabeth close again, simply because she was too far away from me. 'Listen, while you were in the washroom, Rachel texted me and said that she won't be able to make it so I'm free this Saturday again.' In actuality, I texted Rachel, and told her that I won't be able to make it but Annabeth doesn't need to know that. She didn't seem happy but I realized I was being unfair to Rachel too by leading her on, because who am I kidding? Annabeth is it for me. And if she doesn't feel the same way, then I'll try and move on but till then, I'd rather stay loyal to the idea of us.

Annabeth turned to me and woah I wasn't ready for the feeling in my stomach her beam caused. Like chill out, stomach. 'Okay so we can go to the track and have a movie night this Saturday and you can sleepover or I can sleep over, either way, and Sunday we can finish all our homework together.'

She was so excited and it was honestly adorable to see. Oh ugh, I'm never going to move on from her, am I?

'Done and done, Wise Girl. But how about you come over? You haven't come over for dinner in a long time, and all three of us, Mum, you and I, can make blue cookies!' I said, as excited as her.

'YES, I'm excited Seaweed Brain,' Annabeth said, with a mischievous glint in her eye. Hmm, I wonder what that's all about.

We went back to my house and watched Brooklyn 99 for a while. We both ship Peraltiago with all our hearts and we keep watching those episodes.

On the couch, there was a whole lot of space but we always sit right next to each other, in a fixed position. Now there are a lot of positions we like to sit in. One position being Annabeth being almost on my lap, her head on my chest because that's just what our height difference allows, my arm around her shoulders. The second position is Annabeth in between my legs, her back to my front on the recliner, with a blanket over us. These two are our favorites but sometimes there are others too. Anyway, the second one results sometimes in me having a little problem down there which Annabeth somehow never seems to notice, but I still prefer the first one.
