Episode Twelve(:

Percy's POV

Tonight was a huge win for the Athena cabin! I walked over to Annabeth.

"Hey, Wise Girl! How you feeling? You're plan worked perfectly!"

"They always do. And not too hot. Will you take me to your cabin?"

"Sure," I grabbed her hand and we started walking.

"Did you get a lot of action on left flank?"

"Yeah, like the whole Ares cabin came through."

"I knew they would."

"How?"

"Simple, I always put you on right flank. Thinking they could avoid the most dangerous man they chose to go to the left."

"How did you know they caught on to where I was going to be?"

She shrugged, "They seemed to be catching on."

I laughed. I mean I knew Annabeth was smart but even after five years it still surprised me how much she knew about battle and pretty much everything that had to do with anything.

"So are you feeling any better?"

"Worse, I shouldn't have played. I just couldn't help it."

I put my arm around her waist, "I'm sorry babe."

She fell down but I caught her, "Annabeth, are you okay?"

She shook her head with tears rolling down her face. I picked her up bridal style and carried her to my cabin. I put her down on my bed and put a blanket around her. "I'll be right back; I'm going to get Chiron."

She grabbed my hand, "Stay with me. He can't do anything for me. I'll have to wait until I can see a normal doctor."

"Annabeth, you're acting crazy! I'll be right back!"

She burst into tears, "Don't leave me Percy! I'm scared!"

I sat down beside her, "Annabeth, why are you scared? You go into battle almost every day! It's just strep throat!"

"I've never been sick before. It just doesn't feel right. I feel like I've been poisoned but there's nothing I can do about it! I don't like it!"

"I'm going to go find you some medicine and you'll be fine. I'll be right back, Wise Girl. I promise."

"Okay…"

I left the cabin. Man she's acting strange! It must have something to do with her fever. I guess sometimes people will get all crazy and weird when they have a high fever. I ran into the Big House and started rummaging through the medicine. I found some to help with strep throat and I sprinted back to my cabin.

"Annabeth, take this." I handed her some pills and a glass of water.

She looked at the pills for a second but reluctantly took them. "Thanks…"

I sat down on my bed and pulled her into my lap. She buried her head in my chest. I kissed her head, "I love you."

"Love you too Percy."

Annabeth's POV

I have no idea what's wrong with me. I was dizzy and cold. I hugged Percy tighter and breathed in his scent. I was moving to the city but it was going to be crazy not being with him every day. "Percy?"

"Mmhm?"

"I'm really going to miss you."

"I'm going to miss you too, Annabeth. We'll see each other a lot though…"

"A lot isn't enough…"

He kissed me, "I know."

I lay down in bed and pulled the blankets up around me. I was still freezing.

"Are you cold, Wise Girl?"

I nodded. He went to his drawer and threw me a big sweat shirt that said ΠερσέαςΤζάκσον Γιοςτου Ποσειδώνα. (Perseus Jackson Son of Poseidon.) I laughed, "Where on earth did you get this?"

He smiled, "My dad gave it to me. It doesn't do anything special but I love it."

I slipped it on and put my head on Percy's pillow. "I'm going to take a nap is that okay?"

"Yeah! Do you want me to stay with you?"

"Only if you want to, you don't have to."

He crawled into bed next to me and said, "I want to be with you as much as possible." I put my head on his chest and fell asleep to the steady beat of his heart.

Percy's POV

I watched Annabeth sleep. Man, she was beautiful. I don't want to think that I only have one week left until camp's over. I'm going to miss everything so much. I finally fell asleep.

I was awoken hours later by Thalia. "Where have you two been? You guys slept through dinner!"

I tried to quiet her, "Shh! Thalia, Annabeth's sick!"

"Sorry… well anyway, I came here to ask if my brother is officially dating Piper now. I haven't seen him since this morning!"

I smiled, "Yeah, he asked out Piper right before lunch today."

"Yes! Finally!"

Annabeth woke up and rubbed her eyes, "Oh, hey Tha."

"Hey Annabeth, how you feeling?"

"Better than before."

She smiled, "Well, I have to go now! You two love birds don't get into any trouble!"

I laughed, "Don't worry."

Annabeth yawned, "I'm gonna go back to sleep, I'm really tired!"

I kissed her, "Goodnight, I love you!"

"Love you too!"
