Percy's POV
I never thought—I mean she heard me talking in my sleep, probably about my dream. In my dream—I said—OH MY GODS! Annabeth heard me say "I love you" to her. Oh _(insert bad word here).
I came back to real life when Annabeth yelled my name and waved her hand in front of my face. I said a quick good-bye and ran from the cabin. I went straight back to the cabin, knowing I control who comes in and who goes out.
For the next few days, I felt shunned, which is odd, considering in my mind I had blocked everyone else out.
Thankfully I only had a few classes with Annabeth, in which I could ignore her. She did the same to me, except for one day. Unfortunately, the 'teachers' have noticed Annabeth and I was silent and decided that something was wrong, and to fix this, they created an assignment, a partner project I might add, and guess who I got paired with, yup the blonde haired demon.
The project consisted of writing a report on whom you think the most important god or goddess is, each partnership can only do one. I think rather than being a test of knowledge, it is to show who can agree on someone besides their parents.
"Ok, so who do you want to do?" Annabeth asked, obviously pretending I'm just another dude she's stuck working with.
"I don't really care." I answered, just as stiffly.
"Of course you don't." She muttered under her breath. Normally I wouldn't really care, since it's true, but nowadays I felt anger against everybody and everything that was said, it was almost as though Ares had taken over my body.
"Like you do." I spat back.
"I actually care about my education and my life. I don't know how I ever liked you." She glared at me, wait did she just say she liked me, and if she did, what did she mean? Realization crept over what she said, and she widened her eyes and ran away. I remember her telling me I was a coward, I still am no doubt.
I don't know why I don't just tell her I love her, it's too embarrassing, I keep thinking she's going to dump me for Luke. Sure I hate him for almost killing me and almost destroying the world, but I fixed those, I just hate him for stealing Annabeth's heart, something I can never change.
Sorry for the really really short chapter. It is a filler chapter and I can't think of anything to write, this took me like two weeks to come up with. Please PM or review with ideas, or else I won't be able to update.
