You guys are awesome!
Thx so much for all your reviews!

Annabeth POV

I stabbed the fork into my steak.

I was such a wimp.

I liked Percy. I really do. I love the way his green eyes sparkle when he sees me. The way he cocks his head to the side when someone asks him a question. Not to mention the fact that he's saved my life. Multiple times.

I just couldn't get over Luke dying. Didn't want to feel attached to anyone else. I don't want to break down again, like the way I did after Luke disappered and we found his body two days later.

"What's the matter, Annabeth?" Malcom grinned. "Feeling bad about rejecting Percy?"

"Not... really..." I mummbled. He didn't hear me.

"You know Annabeth, it's okay. You don't have to say yes to guys you don't like."

The problem was, I did like Percy. Alot.

"Oh, cheer up Annabeth!" Malcom said. He waved his arms around, started making bird noises and rolled his eyes like a retarded turkey. It wasn't funny, but Malcom would do anything to cheer me up.

And, apparently, Connor Stoll found it very funny(and I guess the Athena kids hardly do anything close to retarded).

He doubled over, laughing so hard his Pepsi squirted out of his nose, and also knocking down Thalia's drink in the process.

Now that was funny. The whole camp was screaming with laughter, and I couldn't help it and started laughing too.

Then there was a slight pause that was unnoticable.

What was really weird was that Percy just appered out of nowhere. Suddenly he was standing there, staring at me.

His face was somewhere between excitement, frustration and regret.

And he had glitter in his black hair.

I started giggling.

Then, I suddenly felt very, very, very thirsty.

Without thinking, I chugged down the rest of my apple juice(apple juice is the only non-water drink that's mildly healthy, okay?).
It tasted weird, a little bit like strawberries and raspberries.

I frowned. Apple juice is called apple juice for a reason. Because it tastes like apples.

I looked up and saw Percy.
Suddenly, it was like I was under a spell. All I wanted to do was go run forward and kiss him.

I stood up and started towards him.

What about what happened with Luke? My mind screamed at me.

I ignored it. All I could see was Percy's face, smiling back at me.

Why had I never seen it before? I wondered. Percy Jackson was everything I'd ever wanted.

Percy POV

Annabeth walked towards me, smiling slightly hysterically.

I smiled back.

"Annabeth, what are you doing?" Malcom yelled.

Annabeth acted like she hadn't heard him.

"GET BACK HERE ANNABETH!" He shouted.

Annabeth just kept walking towards me, her cheeks slightly flushed and her eyes wild.

"ANNIE!" He was screeching now.

The room went silent, waiting for Annabeth to turn on Malcom, telling him not to call her Annie.

Annabeth was in front of me now, grinning like crazy.

She paused for a moment, wrapping her arms around my neck.

The room was holding its breath. Malcom's eyes were wide, and his face was purple. He looked like he was about to explode.
Clearly, calling her Annie had been his last resort. We all knew he was SO protective of Annabeth, who totally did not need his protection.

"Percy..." She mummbled.

Then her lips were on mine.

It felt like we were spinning, the room nothing but a blur. All I could feel was Annabeth in my arms, holding me tight.

Ohh, so cute! I heard Aphrodite shriek in my head.

I didn't care that Annabeth only liked me because of the Love Potion. I really just didn't care. She liked me and that was all that mattered.
So, sometimes being a stupid,selfish jerk had its good side.

Malcom was going to kill me. Skewer me alive. Torture me to death and not stop until he sent me down to Tartartus.

Good for him. There was no way that I was giving up Annabeth now.

Aphrodite was rejoicing in my head. Woo! Now there's no way that Zeus won't let me keep the Aphrodite show! It's going to be such a hit!

Wait, I said, er, thought to Aphrodite. The gods are going to be watching this?

Yep,she answered. It'll air in about a week.

Craaaap.

Sorry about the short chapter, I'm just not good at writing long ones.

Plus I have writers block.

REVIEW and send me some ideas!
