Slam!

Rachel threw the door behind her and sat down on her bed.

Stupid Annabeth! Why did she have to be there every time she tried to make a move on Percy?

Then it hit her.

What if Annabeth wasn't there when she took another step in her plan? Now how the heck was that supposed to work? How could a mere mortal take out a determined demi-god such as Annabeth Chase?

She got out some scratch paper and began writing.

"Percy, I'm sorry, but I've realized that we aren't meant to be together. When summer is over, I'll have to go back to San Francisco…."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Percy slummed down on his bed, ran his hand through his hair and started reading the letter he had found taped onto his door.

"And because I will be living on the other side of the country, the only time we will be able to see each other will be at camp. And we both know that long distance relations don't work. I know that if I didn't have to go there, it probably would have worked out. But… I'm sorry that I've wasted your time, but I've wasted mine, too. I'd prefer it if you didn't talk to me; it's just too painful. -Annabeth"

He reread the letter. Was Annabeth… breaking up with him? This can't be happening. The most important girl in the world can't just walk out of his life that easily.

He sat down and began writing a reply letter.

"Annabeth, I don't understand; I know that we'll live far away from each other, but that wouldn't change a thing! You'll still be the only girl that I can actually understand, and vice versa. You know me better than anyone. So I don't get why you're making such a big deal over it. Sure it's far away, but I can come too. I will always love you as I do know, so can't we just work things out? -Percy."

He got up to tape his letter to the Athena cabin's door. His heart was pumping as he walked back to his cabin and knelt by his bed.

Please, Poseidon, He prayed. Please help me solve this problem with Annabeth.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Rachel snuck out from behind the Athena cabin, snatching the letter. She read it to herself.

He actually loved her. Really truly loved her. It seemed that his whole world just revolved around that one demi-god.

She suddenly felt guilt crumble around her.

Did she really want to break something so… symbolic?

She crumpled up the paper and through it to the ground.

Of course she did! She wanted Percy to think about her that way.

She walked back to the big house and ripped another piece of paper from her notebook.

"Percy-"

Hi peoples! I'm back! I don't exactly know if this is good or not since I wrote it about two months back or so… and I just forgot to publish it. I'm really sorry. Really. Honestly. So I'll try and update faster… but I totally forgot about it (sorry) until I got a review today and I hopped onto the computer as fast as humanly possible and started typing more chapters. (As in one) hahaha… plz review!
