Percy's POV

"Jackson, your late, again!" Coach Hedge snarled at me. "Your lucky your good at football or else I would have cut your bum 2 years ago! Get out there!"

I stifled a laugh. "Yes Coach."

Since the game didn't start till 6:30, we decided to run through our playbook until the game started. I ran out to the team huddle.

"Nico, what play are we running?" I asked.

"Wing right 32 fly on 2." (A/N for all those people who don't play football its basically a passing play so Percy is going to throw the ball.)

"Alright, everyone ready? Break!" We clapped our hands together and ran out to the line . "Down set hut hut, HIKE!" Everyone sprang to their feet charging down the field. I looked for my receiver options. I saw Nico and Grover darting down the field. My options were looking pretty good until I saw Luke sprint out to cover Grover. Nico on the other hand was wide open so I threw the ball with all my strength. It turned out to be a perfect throw landing right in his arms.

I saw Coach Hedge give a faint smile. "Good job Jackson run that play again. Grover ran the wrong route." Coach Hedge eyed Grover. "If you want to play in the game tonight then you better get your act together Goat boy!" He snapped.

"Alright everyone on the ball. Down set, hut hut green right, green right HIKE!" I took three steps back and once looked at my receiver options. Nico was once again wide open. I smiled and was about to launch the ball when something caught my eye.

Annabeth walked up in to stands while smiling and waving at me. She was in her signature oversized hoodie, her blond curls falling at her shoulders…

BOOM! Next thing I Know I'm on the ground moaning in pain.

"Sorry," Beckendorf apologized, "You seemed distracted."

The 250 pound linebacker picked me up by my shoulder pads giving me a pat on the back. Uuuggghhh! I have got to learn to keep focused.

I saw Annabeth laughing and shaking her head with Thalia.

Coach Hedge rolled his eyes. "Alright cupcakes in the Locker room. Game starts in 10 minutes."

Everyone started jogging while making there way to the locker room.

"Alright boys, win this game and you will have a freeway to the playoffs. Tonight is your night. Your night to go out there and show the North High Devils who we really are. We will show them what kind of team we are. We will win tonight! Captains would you like to say anything?"

Me Nico, and Beckendorf made our way to the front of the locker room.

Nico went first. "All right Olympians as coach said this is our night. We will be ready! We will be focused," he said eying me, "and most importantly. We will be victorious!"

Next was Beckendorf, "Alright Olympians. We've been preparing for this game forever. Show a strong fighting spirit. Show strength, and go out there ready to hit somebody!" The team laughed at this.

Finally it was my turn. "I think a football victory is unlike any other victory. It feels good. I always feel accomplished when I win a Football game. I want to win this game tonight! I want everyone at Goode high, students, parents, and even Nico, to remember this night. The night we won!"

The team was now pumped.

"Now announcing the Goode High Olympians!" Came the voice of the announcer.

The team came sprinting out of the tunnel in our blue and white jerseys. We made our way to the sideling pumping up the crowd. I looked up and saw Annabeth cheering.

"Starting quarterback for Goode High tonight will be Percy Jackson." The announcer said.

Annabeth stood up and cheered while flashing a beautiful smile.

"Goode high wins the toss deciding to receive the kick."

I smiled it was game time.

The kick was deep and came straight into Jason's arm, our kick/punt return. He ran t for a total of 30 yards before being talked on the 50.

I put on my blue helmet and raced over to the huddle.

"Jason, I'm running the ball to you. Everyone keep your block. Ready? Break!" I jogged up to the line of scrimmage.

"Down set! Hut hut, HIKE!" I took 3 steps back as Jason received a left handoff. He raced the ball up the field for a total of 13 yards.

"Good run. Nico run a three yard route then turn to me, you're getting the ball. Ready? Break!" I again jogged to the line of scrimmage.

"Down set hut hut, HIKE!" I took a couple steps bake and threw the ball for a total of 3 yard, he then ran the ball for 5 more yards. We were now on the goal line.

"It's 3rd and goal. Let's run it to you Jason."

We broke the huddle and jogged up to the line of scrimmage. "Ready? Down set, HIKE!" Jason received the handoff but failed to make it over the goal line.

I saw Coach giving the signal for a field goal. I ran to the sideline.
"Good job kid." Coach said without emotion.

"And the kick is good!" Said the announcer.

The crowd applauded. I only heard Annabeth's piercing scream, "Good job Percy!"

I laughed and smiled.

In the second quarter we started losing our stride. I was sacked twice and ended up throwing in interception. The devils scored on the interception and in their next drive they also scored. The score was 14-3, This game wasn't going to well.

The third quarter turned out to be all right. We scored on 4th down with a pop pass to Grover. We ended up stopping the devils at their goal line. The devils kicked a good field goal. Score 17-10. We weren't trailing far behind. The 4th quarter would decide the game's fate.

"On the line. Lets go!" I screamed to my players. "Down set hike. Jason received the handoff and jumped over the line scoring. I ran over to him and chest bumped him. We were back in the game!

"Nice job man! That's what I'm talking about!" I slapped his blue helmet.

The kick was good making the score17-17.

With a minute left in the game the Devils kicked a good field goal making the score 20-17. I was starting to get nervous. The pressure was getting to me. I would have to score a touchdown in the next drive to win.

Jason returned the kickoff for 13 yards putting us in a bad situation. We would have to march the ball down the field 87 yards.

"Down set! Hut hut HIKE!" I fake the ball to Jason and threw it to Grover for a play action pass. We gained 18 yards.

There was only 50 seconds left so we ran the same play. Grover caught the ball again for a total of 23 yards and ran out of bounds to stop the clock.

"Great job Grover. 10 seconds left to win, Olympians. 10 seconds left to earn our way to the playoffs. Lets run Wing right 32 fly on 2. Ready break!"

I bit my lip nervously and ran to the line of scrimmage. "Down set green right green right, hut hut, HIKE!" Everyone sprang to their feet charging down the field.

A problem quickly arose. No receivers were open and a linebacker had broken through the line barreling straight towards me.

I did something I knew I was going to regret…I ran the ball myself.

The line backers were big and slow so they were easy to get away from.

Nico and Grover quickly blocked their cornerbacks creating a safe passage for me.

The safety was the only issue. I was 10 yards from the in zone and there was 3 seconds left on the clock.

3! I starting sprinting with all my power.

2! The safety made his way towards me.

1! I dove into the in zone and looked up. The refs confirmed the touchdown as I jumped to my feet and chest bumped Nico. We won!

"We're going to the playoffs!" Everyone chorused together. Grover and his Jason dumped the Gatorade jug on Coach Hedge and as a result were chased by an angry coach.

The crowd came running out onto the field hugging and high fiving eachother.

I met Annabeth in the in zone. I pulled her into a hug while picking up and spinning her.

"You did good Seaweed brain." She looked me directly in the eye.

I couldn't manage any words so I closed the distance between our face and kissed her lips.

They were extremely soft and Annabeth kissed me back.

Annabeth pulled away smiling.

The kiss wasn't anything more than a victory gift but I loved it anyway.
