A/N I just wanted to say thank you for all of the views, its way more than just myself reading it. Don't forget to leave awesome comments and help me improve, and sorry my chapters have been short, this one is going to be longer.

Disclaimer (Sorry I haven't done this before): I do not own pjo and hoo or the characters, but I DO own Christian and the story. Enjoy!

Annabeth

The walk to Percy's room was long and very awkward. Percy opened his mouth now and then, but I would just glare at him and he would stop. Most of the time I didn't mean to glare it was just a force of habit now. As we got to his room he fumbled to open the door, but he managed.

His room was just like mine, just different posters and my room didn't have a half naked guy, unfortunately.

"Dude, come on." Percy said and threw his arms up.

Percy's roommate had a nice body. He had a six pack and had cool tattoos; one was a design on his shoulder and a falling maple leaf near his heart. I felt my face turn hot from blushing.

"Oh, hey," he says while throwing his shirt in a laundry bin. "I spilt yogurt on my shirt."

"I'm sorry about this," Percy whispers to me, I shrug.

"Where are my manors?" he walks over to me and sticks out his hand, I lightly put my hand on his. "My name is Christian, and you must be Annabeth." Christian leans down and kisses my hand and gives a wink at Percy.

"I'm… ah…" I lost how to talk for a second. "Nice to meet you." He lets go of my hand and glance at Percy and his ears are all red with anger, I point to his tattoo on his chest. "Why the maple leaf?"

"My love for Canada," he smiles. "I'm Canadian, eh?"

He laughs.

I walk over to a desk and put my bag down, and then I spot a picture of Percy scaring me from when I was 14. I quickly throw my jacket over the picture and look back at the boys.

Christian threw on a hoodie, and Percy was silently telling him off while Christian smiled, obviously Christian enjoys making Percy angry. After they were finished bickering Christian started to leave.

"Nice meeting you Annabeth." He said before he walked out the door.

"Again Annabeth," Percy starts. "I'm sorry about that."

He sits on his bed and pulls out his text book. I pulled up his desk chair and I sit right next to him, so close I could smell the ocean on him. I get started on helping him.

Christian

It was getting chilly so I zipped up my jacket. I had this one number stuck in my head for the past weeks, I have just been too cowardly to pick up my phone and dial, but today was my day, I finally picked up my phone.

I had everything planed out in my head, even plan B's and C's, well maybe the rest of the alphabet. I was prepared for anything except dial tone.

Well time to give up, I gave it a shot and missed, at least I can move on with my life now, maybe.

I put my phone away and bumped into someone, I looked up.

"Fancy bumping into you again." I say.

"The second time now?" Rachel asked.

"Indeed it is. Where are you headed off to?"

"No where… well somewhere of course, but no where important."

I smirk at her goofiness.

"Where is 'no where important'?"

She points towards the girls' dorm. "Just heading back to my room."

"Is it okay if I walk you there?"

She blushes. "Of course you can."

"Let's play a little get to know you game, okay?" I suggest.

She nods.

"Have you heard of 20 questions?"

We play this game until we get to the entrance of the girls dorm, Rachel had the last question.

"Do you want to come to my room and maybe watch a movie or something?" she nervously asks me.

"I would love too."

Percy

It has almost been a hour since we started to study, all I could think about I how sorry I am, but I didn't want her to hate me anymore then she already does.

"Um, Annabeth?" what are you doing?

"Yes Percy?"

Stop right now.

"I just needed to… ah… get something off my chest." Well it's too late now, idiot. "I want you to listen. Okay?"

"Okay…" she closes her math book.

"I'm sorry, for what I did-"

"YOU'RE SORRY?" she demanded with such force in her voice that I wanted to crawl inside a cave and hibernate.

"Just listen," I blurted out. "I might not have enough courage to say this again." She shut her mouth. "I'm sorry for being a complete asshole. I'm sorry I never called or answered when you called. I'm sorry for hurting you, I never wanted to."

"YOU NEVER WANTED TO?" she stands and gets right near my face, so close I could feel her breath on me, I got scared that she was going to kill me right there and then. "ALL YOU EVER DID WAS HURT ME! NOT CALLING WAS ONE THING, BUT SAYING YOU LOVED ME JUST TO GET TO FIRST BASE. THAT'S A WHOLE NEW GAME, PERCY!" she starts to head towards the door with her bag and jacket, breaking the picture of us. A wave of sadness washed over me.

I couldn't let her get away from me, never again.

I run up and slam the door shut just as she opened it.

"Everything I said that day was true." My voice was quite.

"Except the part where you were going to call me." Her voice was quieter then before.

"To be fair that was the day after." I say under my breath, but Annabeth still heard me. She slapped me, hard. I put my hand to my face. "Okay I deserved that."

"You deserved a lot more than a slap."

"Don't you think I know that, Annabeth? I hate myself everyday because of that. I was a coward and I was scared. I was scared that I was holding you back that you would resent me for that. Most of all I was scared of myself."

"Yourself? Why?" she tried to stay strong and fight the tears, but she lost. I tried to wipe away her tears but she pushed my hand back.

"I was scared of my feeling. I was." I try one more time to wipe away her tears, this time she doesn't push my hand way.

Her skin is incredibly soft, just as I remembered. Touching her now reminded of how much I missed her skin and how I took it for granted, and how I never will again.

"I hate you so much." She whispered to herself.

I stared into her stormy grey eyes and the first time in a while she stared back.

"I know."

A/N so I was going to write more today but I am falling a sleep on my laptop and I cant concentrate right now, I'll post the next chapter sometime tomorrow, when I have time. Don't forget to leave a comment and a review, and I would like to say thank you for the people who picked to read my story and I hope you keep reading, I'm going to pass out now, have a good day or night depends on when you are reading this.

P.S. *Spoiler Alert* there may or may not be a make out scene, you just have to stay tuned to see.
