Chapter nine(:

Annabeth's POV

I walked into the Athena cabin and lay down on my bunk. I didn't realize how tired I was until my head hit my pillow and I immediately fell asleep. That night I dreamed of Percy.

In Annabeth's Dream

Its night, Percy is sitting on the beach looking out at the ocean crying. A figure appears seated next to him.

Percy looked over, "Hey dad."

"Percy, what's troubling you?"

"It's, it's, Annabeth."

"What's going on between you too?"

"Well, uh, you know how we were dating?"

"Of course."

"Well, she's really mad at me. Someone put some sort of potion in my food to make me forget about her and she thinks I was just pretending not to know her."

He laughed, "That certainly seems like something you would do."

Percy clenched his fists, "BUT I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!"

He put his hands on Percy's shoulders, "Son, I know you're upset, and I know you love her but you have to be strong. You'll work things out."

He shook his head and looked down. "I just have a bad feeling about this time."

"I have to leave now Percy. Things will work out I promise."

"Bye dad."

Percy sat back down on the sand, put his face in his hands, and continued crying.

I woke up the next morning with a pounding headache. I combed through my hair and put on a clean CHB shirt. I made the walk to breakfast with Thalia. Piper was too engrossed with Jason to care about me at the moment. That's fine, I'm happy for her. After giving the offering to the gods I sat down and started eating. I looked over at the Poseidon table and it was completely empty.

Next I had sword practice. Percy just so happens to be the teacher of that class. He showed up 10 minutes late with red puffy eyes and hair matted with sand. He looked… well, depressing.

After he gave our instructions he sat down. I walked over and sat next to him. "Um, hey Percy…"

"Hey Annabeth."

I grabbed his hand and he immediately brightened. "Meet me on the beach after class."

He smiled for the first time in days. "Okay."

After Class

I quickly walked to my cabin and put my hair up in a pony tail. I walked down to the beach and saw Percy standing there skipping rocks.

I laughed, "Hey Percy."

He quickly turned around, "Hey!"

I sat down and he sat next to me. "Listen, I've been thinking."

"Yeah?"

"I over reacted. You didn't do anything wrong, it was my fault."

He smiled wide, "It wasn't your fault you had every right to me mad at me."

"No I didn't."

He laughed and I put my head on his shoulder.

"So does this mean you'll be my girlfriend again?"

"We never broke up Seaweed Brain."

He shrugged, "Well, I just figured since you weren't talking to me that you wanted to break up."

"I'm the daughter of Athena. I don't do stupid things like that."

I kissed him and he deepened it. I was so in love with him he would never know.

I smiled, "Did you miss me?"

He laughed, "I thought I was gonna die without you. I can honestly say those were the worst days of my life."

I smiled, "Did you see your dad last night?"

"Um, yeah, why?"

"I kind of dreamed of you last night."

He blushed, "So you saw me…"

I finished him, "Cry? Yeah, I did."

He shook his head, "You must think I'm a wimp!"

I smiled, "I thought it was the sweetest thing I've ever seen."

He blushed more, "I love you Annabeth."

"I love you too Percy."

Percy's POV

YES! THANK THE GODS! YES! Annabeth finally forgave me!

I'm determined not to screw up this time. I may never get another chance with Annabeth. I looked into her stormy grey eyes and she looked into mine. I know I've said this a million times before but, I'm so lucky!

"Percy, I forgot to tell you something!"

"What?"

"My dad signed me up for an all girls boarding school in the city!"

"Really?"

"Yeah! I won't be going to Goode but I'll still get to see you a lot!"

I smiled, "That's so great!"

She laughed, "Yeah, we could actually go on a real date!"

"We've been on a real date before!"

"Name one time."

I thought about it and I couldn't think about one time we had a date outside of camp. "I can't think of anything…"

She stuck her tongue out in triumph, "I told you so!"

"Well, we only have a week left of camp so we'll have all the time in the world to go on dates!"

She sighed, "I kind of miss being a year round camper. I mean, I hate leaving."

I nudged her, "We can come visit. Plus you'll have me!" I gave her a cheesy smile.

She smiled, "Of course! I just really miss it every year…"

I kissed her, "Everything will be fine. I promise."

She leaned her head on my shoulder and looked out into the ocean. "I sure hope you're right."

I kissed her head. "I know I'm right Wise Girl."
