Percy's POV
It was late in the afternoon and I was sitting in my cabin watching Riptide Glisten in the sun. The thoughts of Annabeth came creeping back to me…why…why did I still have a soft spot in my heart for her. I mean for Zeus's sake I found her kissing Travis Stoll! I didn't want to forgive Annabeth. But I knew that I had to. I decided to go ask Silena Beauregard if I should just ask Annabeth for forgiveness…I knew that Silena Beauregard wanted to go out with me…"never mind" I thought to myself. I walked to the Apollo cabin to see if Michael Yew could tell me anything. His mind was blank…"Gods!" doesn't anyone around here know if I should forgive Annabeth. I decided to go to the Athena cabin and ask Annabeth for forgiveness. I knocked silently on the door. When the door opened it was Annabeth, her eyes were red and puffy like she had been crying. She held out her arms like she wanted me to hold her like what three to four year olds do. I walked in and sat on her bed then pulled her down to sit on my lap. I loved this kind of closeness we had as friends…that's when I heard the most glorious words in this world… "Percy, I dumped Travis because he wanted Katie Gardner from the Demeter Cabin. Do you forgive me?", Annabeth whispered. I nuzzled the top of her head and said "That's why I came over here Annabeth. Yes I forgive you" she lifted her head from where it was on my shoulder and moved her head so that her sweet breath fanned over my face. I moved closer to her and pressed my lips softly at first to hers. She threw her arms around my neck and parted her lips. I dragged my tongue across her bottom lip. She moaned into the kiss. I sighed internally…her moans were music to the human ear. She pulled me down on top of her onto the bed. We laid there and kissed for what seems like forever but was really only like five or ten minutes. She finally sighed and broke the kiss and laid against my chest. I rolled and pulled her on top of me. I stroked her hair and smelled the sweet scent of her hair that smelled like Cranberries and Pomegranates. She was perfect and she was MY Annabeth Chase.

Annabeth's POV
I was mad! Wait…scratch that…I was FURIOUS! I couldn't believe that Katie Gardner was better for Travis than me! I felt that it was morning and so I opened my eyes and looked around the room at my sleeping brothers and sisters…then I looked at the floor by my bed for my robe and that's when I saw unruly black hair. It was Percy! Why did he bother to stay. A bed would have been much more comfortable. I swung my legs silently off the bed and went out the door towards the showers. I found Kasey Marat from the Apollo Cabin sitting outside of her cabin. She looked tired and irritated. When I asked her what was wrong she told me that her brothers Michael Yew and Kent Lippmann had been up all night fighting over who was hotter, Silena Beauregard or Karilynn Lyman both from the Aphrodite Cabin. Then she looked up at me and said, "How do you and Travis Get along?" "Um" I stammered "I kind of broke up with him. And so now I'm back with Percy." "Oh. I think Percy is better for you than Thief Boy." She replied with a smile. "So do I Kasey. So do I". "I think that I'm going to go back inside and smack Michael and Kent." "Kay". I stood up from the porch of the Apollo cabin and headed to the showers. I picked up my towel and shampoo and conditioner and soap from the porch and ran towards the showers. It was almost dawn and once everyone got up they would be clamoring to get a shower that had warm water. Once in the shower I let the water run over me warming every inch of my body. After about 15 or 20 minutes I got out, changed and yanked a brush through my blonde curls. I sat on a bench and concentrated on braiding my hair into a single braid. Well, I got bored with that so I undid the plates that I had braided and just decided to pull my hair into a single smooth ponytail. I grabbed my towel and soap and went back to the cabin, to find everyone wide awake. Even Percy. Hm. I would have thought Malcom would have been to protective and kicked Percy out.
