I'm back again to make another,
even more fun chapter. yay! Fun! I can't wait!
-Annabeth-
I set my bags down by the door and walk inside. I walk further into his apartment, it's quite smaller than I had originally expected. There is a main room with a small couch and a tv on one side of the room closest to the door is a small kitchen area. On the other side is a door that probably leads to Percy's room or a bathroom. I walk over and jiggle the doorknob, it's locked. "Percy I'm sorry but please I'm different, I've changed I understand now, I'm not as selfish as I usd to be...". "I'm busy right now Annabeth we can talk later if you want". "Um busy with what?". "I'm just busy ok Anna just leave me alone for a little bit". I walk back over and sit down on the couch.
One hour later
-Percy-
I check the time on my phone 11:29 shit, it's already pretty late. I unlock the door and walk out into the main room. Annabeth is sleeping in an awkward position half on half off the couch. I laugh, what would mom say to me making a girl sleep on the couch. I walk over and grab her stuff and take it into the bedroom. Finally I walk up to the couch and look down at the sleeping Annabeth. Am I ever gonna forgive her? She doesn't deserve how I've been treating her today, even after the shit she did to me it's about time I got over it and forgive her. I reach down and pick Annabeth up in my arms, she begins to stir as I walk over to my room and set her down in my bed. I pull the covers up to her chest and sit down at the end of the bed. "I'm sorry for the way I acted today" I say to the snoozing Annabeth, "I shouldn't hold grudges that long". I get up and begin to leave the room, "Percy" I turn back to see Annabeth looking up at me smiling. "No it's me that should be sorry"She half mumbled from tiredness. "I didn't think about my actions back then, I was really selfish and I should have thought about us instead of just me" she finishes. "It's fine Annabeth" I say taking her small face in my hands. "Goodnight" I say and walk out of the room and lay down on the couch falling instantly asleep...
Annabeth
I slept well for the first time in a few days, well a bed is much better compared to a plane and a airport bench. I climb out of bed, I notice that the jeans I am wearing are a little to tight at the waist so I take them off and put on a pair of sweatpants I also notice that I have about to sets of everything with me because almost all of my stuff got lost in the luggage somewhere inbetween when they put it on the plane and when they took it off. I smell them and realize that they all smell horrible I take the clothes I'm wearing off I now stand in only my underwear, this is great. I walk out of the room shielding my almost naked body with the dirty clothing. "Um where are your clothes?" I turn to see Percy staring at me giving me a confused look. My face turns bright red. "I-I was wondering where the washing machine was". "Ahh here I'll take these and be right back" Percy says taking the dirty clothes so that I now stand in only my underwear. I shield myself with my arms. I stand there for a minute or two wondering why I always end up in such strange scenarios. When Percy comes back with a T-shirt and sweatpants here you can go put these on. Do you want you underwear washed too?". Umm ok but you really don't need to serve me like this Percy". "Eh no problem, but I would prefer you strip in the bedroom not here", Percy says smirking at me. I would have made a sarcastic comment back, but I felt like I couldn't. I feel too shy around twenty year old Percy. I feel like we just met and that he so far out of my league. He's just too good for short fat shy blond girl that flunked out of her school. I walk back into the bedroom and strip off my underwear I turn and look into a mirror disgusted by the girl looking back at me. I grab my belly while looking into the mirror, I turn sideways. I just can't stand it, I gained 31 pounds in three years of college. Most of the weight went to my belly, which went out a little farther than my boobs, which had grown considerably. I then turn around and look at my now quite larger butt what used to be a small butt had grown out a few inches on all sides, disgusted I put on the clothes Percy had given me the shirt a bit too large for my short 5 foot 3 frame and the pants went down way past my ankles so I had to roll them up. I walked out through the door crossing my arms because it felt weird not having a bra. I walk into the kitchen, where Percy is sitting at a table eating cereal. "Ahh I see you are wearing clothes now", Percy says smirking. I blush again, jeez Annabeth that is Percy, you know the kid that you've been fighting monsters and saving the world with for like ever. "Are you ok you look like there is something bothering you", Percy said looking concerned. "No there's nothing bothering me, why would anything be bothering me I'm standing next to Percy da fricking Jackson the coolest person in the history of the universe most amazing person to ever walk on the earth" I snapped. I start to walk away from the table, Percy stands up and grabs my shoulder. "Sorry I'll quit the dumb jokes if you like". I ignore him and try to pull out of his grasp but he turns me around and wraps me up in a hug. "I'm sorry Annabeth, I miss you and I'm concerned about you. Please tell me what's wrong...". Percy continues to hug me and I feel even weirder not wearing a bra. "It's just that your different Percy I feel like I've just met you even though I've known you forever. And your just so far out of my league that I feel like you just pity your fat friend that got flunked out of school and has nowhere to go". We're silent for a while just standing there hugging. "Do you think your fat just cause I called you that last night? Because I never should have said that I was just angry because...". "No Percy I know I'm overweight it's ok, it's not because you said it it's because I didn't treat my body very well in college". "Umm Ok let's stop talking about this" Percy says getting up and walking out of the kitchen. He jumps over the back of the couch and turns on the Xbox and tv before sitting down. He starts playing some football game called like maddan18 or something like that. "Aren't you alittle old for video games?" I ask him, trying to start another conversation after failing the last one. "You can never be to old for video games Anna" he answers as his player throws the football and it's knocked down by another. "What's the point of sports anyway, they don't solve any global problem like hunger or global warming. They just seem dumb" I ask percy serious this time. "Are you kidding me?!, they give people something to hope for and look forward to. They also allow countries to compete together in a friendly competition. So yeah they are extremely important." Percy smirks "Plus they can help keep you in shape". I reach over and smack him. "I thought you told me to drop that topic?!" I ask getting kinda angry. "Hey just having a little fun's all" he says raising his hands in the air innocently. "Jackson you really get on my nerves" I reply seriously. "Well that's to bad, I guess your just gonna have to deal with it" he reply's with fake sincerity. His smile turns into a frown when he looks over and sees me upset. "I'm sorry I-I shouldn't act like such an asshole. It's just that I miss the old Annabeth, the one that wanted with all her heart to be an architect and didn't care what the other people thought and..." I cut him off "Well it's to bad that that Annabeth no longer exists!" I stand up. Percy stands up beside me. "Jeez I'm sorry don't be so uptight about everything, wait let me rephrase that, relax ok." He wraps his arms around me pulling me into a tight hug. "It's been too long" Percy says, "we've changed"...
