AN: it's like 1 am and i'm eating a candy-cane haha. sorry for not writing sooner i just had christmas.. haha well, here ya go!
It had been about a week since i meet Percy and he hadn't came to see me, it's not like i care or anything. Or like i actually thought that he could find time to see me, or even want to see me but, i don't know... Well, i'm at home now and not at work because i'm sick, Thalia forced me to stay home. I actually love my work, i'm an architect mostly because it's fascinating and also because i have always wanted to build something permanent. I heard a knock on the door and i got up to answer it. i opened the door and almost freaked out and not in a good way.
"What are you doing here?" i asked. "well you told me i should get used to being avoided if i ever came back, and i'm back." said percy. He was wearing dark skinny jeans, vans, and a white button up. I have to admit he looked extremly sexy. "i told you it wasn't an invitation, and if you cant tell by how i'm dressed and sound, i'm sick." i'm wearing my black sweatpants with love pink down the side and 86 outlined in purple, one green and one grey sock and a dark blue tank top. "yeah? well you look great." he said with a cocky smile. "whatever, goodbye now!" i say as i close the door but he puts his foot in the door so i can't close it. "really? what do you want?" i didn't notice at first but his arm was behind his back.
"well i wanted to give you these-he pulled out the most beautiful red roses-, apologize for not coming to see you sooner, and take you out to dinner but your sick so i guess i will make you something?" he said. i laugh, "well it's lunch, and no thanks i don't have much of an appetite cause of this stupid cold." i say and cough afterwards. "and why would you apologize for not seeing me sooner? i'm actually surprised you even remebered me. " i said. "How could i forget the one person that treats me like a normal person? and Annabeth, i wanted to apologize because i don't think we met on the best note last night and i want to start over?" he asks.
well everyone deserves second chances maybe he is different after all. "ok fine, whatever." "do you say 'whatever' after everything?" he asks with a chuckle, it's different than the one you hear on tv and talk shows it's more.. real. and i like it, i like it alot. It's sweet, and laughable, it's one of those laughs that make you want to laugh. "actually no i don't, do you want to start over or what?" i ask. his face turns serious, "yeah, yeah i do." he extended his hand to me, "hey, i'm percy jackson, nice to meet you." i laugh and take his hand and shake it, i swear i felt a thousand bolts got through my hand but i acted like i didn't and said. "I'm Annabeth Chase, nice to meet you too." i smiled. "you know you look a lot hotter when you do that" he said. i blushed. "do what?" "smile." he said. i smiled again and it made him smile. "oh, uh, do you want to come inside, it's pretty cold out there." "oh right, yeah sure. " he said. "so does this mean you will let me make you lunch?" he asked with that adorable laugh. "ok sure." i smiled.
"is it almost ready?" i yelled into the kitchen. "yeah just a sec. " he yelled back. i'm kinda scared about what he is making and how it will taste, i mean he probably never has cooked, he was discovered when he was 16 and his mom probably cooked for him then and now im sure he has someone do it for him. "hey annabeth! It's ready!" he elxclaimed running into the room and as i got up he covered my eyes. "what are you doing?" i asked. "well it's a surprise! i have to get you in there first silly!" i laughed and agreed to go with his ridiculous plan.
When he uncovered my eyes my jaw dropped in amazment. he had set the table to make it look like a fancy restaurant. he made pasta and i'm glad because i'm a vegetarian. (AN: i'm a vegetarian so, so is annabeth, sorry if you dont like that. :b) I didn't want to not eat his food cause that would be rude. "wow! percy this is amazing! why did you do all this?" "well because your sick and you couldn't go out so i had the restaurant come to you." he said. "wow this is really sweet! and when did you learn to cook?" i ask. "well if you must know, i used to cook dinner when i was younger and i still cook a little when i have time. sit down and eat!" he said "ok!" i laughed. "i'm really glad you made pasta" i said. "why" "well because, i'm a vegetarian." i said. "oh so that's why there was hardly anything with meat in the fridge, wait why was there meat in there?" he said. "cause thalia is always over here and she has to have something to eat" i laugh and he laughs too. "well why don't you like meat?" he asks. why does this question always come up when i tell someone this? "it's not that i'm against killing animals or anything it's just that it doesn't taste right." "oh becasue that makes since." and he makes a funny face. i laugh and so does he.
After we're done eating we decide to watch a movie and we sit down on the couch for a scary movie. we watch incedious. normally scary movies are funny or just plan stupid for me but i was terrified watching this. it didn't even phase percy. I was screaming my head off in places and when the movie ended i had ended up curled into Percy's side. It was comfortable, like i was made to be there. It was around 6 and i asked Percy when i would see him again cause i knew with his busy schedule that it would be awhile. "well, with Christmas coming up i'm on a three month break and so i wil be seeing you a lot more! that's why i was so busy that last week and couldn't come see you." he said. "oh that's great!" i said and meant it. he is like my best friend but i know he wont be able to always be there for me. he will probably forget about me after these three months, if he doesn't we won't be able to stay friends because of him being famous and never being around and having tons of other friends. This must have registered on my face because he storked my arm in a comforting way and brushed a peice of hair behind my ear and said "hey just cause i'm famous doesn't mean i will ever forget you or not be there for you. Me being famous will never get in the way of that. I might have only known you for two days but i feel like i can trust you with all my secrets i have never felt this way with anyone except my friends Grover, and Nico." i felt the same way but wasn't going to tell him that so i said, "ok" wow real smart annabeth. "ok." he said with a smile. i think he knows though. "well i should probably get going cause i have to meet grover but it was nice getting to know you Annabeth." he said with a wink. i laughed and said "you to percy and i can't wait to do it again sometime." and i closed the door behind him. I wonder when we will do this again.
