Chapter Four: Annabeth II

After we left the others we started walking along the shore of the beach. Jason and Piper holding hands, Leo fiddling with some gears he summoned up from his tool belt, and I was just thinking. I kept thinking about what I said to the others, 'I don't want any of you to tell Percy that we were a couple! I want him to remember it on his own', I'm glad Jason learned a little Greek, so he was able to understand what I was saying. Did I really want him to remember us on his own, or did I want someone, preferably me to tell him that we were a couple? We were about 5 feet away from the Argo II when I saw a silhouette with familiar black hair by the side of the boat.

"Hey guys, you go ahead, I want to go check something out. I catch up with you, I promise." I told them. Jason and Leo started to protest but Piper must have caught sight of Percy because she gave me a wink and said," Sure, come on guys, it's almost dark."

She was right, it was already twilight. I walked over to Percy and stood beside him.

"Hey Annabeth," Percy said.

"How did you know it was me?" I asked standing in front of him.

"I heard you talking to Jason, Leo, and Piper. So how have you been?"

"Not good, since I went to Hades, the traditional way, and got sent back and the fact that were about to have another war when I haven't fully gotten over the last one, but I'm ecstatic to see my Seaweed brain of a best friend." I said trying not to let the tears fall. I guess Percy saw that I was trying not to cry because he pulled me into a hug. He rubbed my back soothingly while I let a few tears leak onto his shirt.

"Sorry, I'm messing up your shirt," I said as I pulled away from his shoulder. I looked up and stared into his sea-green eyes and he stared right back. Only before it was too late did I realize that he was leaning in. I kissed him back automatically, after a few seconds he pulled back and stared at me, and as if I was acting on impulse, I pulled him back in for another kiss, and he kissed me back enthusiastically.

"Annabeth, I'm so sorry I don't know what came over me, I mean were best friends; I don't want to ruin that between us and I dating Gwen." Percy told me as he pulled away. Right then and there, Percy Jackson, the Son of Poseidon and the Savior of Olympus broke my heart with those few words.

Instead of crying or showing any emotion I just said, "You're right were just best friends," I thought I saw him cringe at the tone of my voice when I said 'just', "but there was a reason that I wanted to talk to you. You're mom's been going out of her mind with worry and I was just about to go Iris message her and tell her we found you, so would you like to come and talk to her?"

"Yeah, that'll be nice, you talk to her first and I'll surprise her by popping up next to you," Percy replied.

"Ok"

We started walking towards the gangway of the ship in an uncomfortable silence. On the way to the Iris messaging room we ran into Piper, Jason, and Leo.

"Hey, guys we were just about to go Iris message Percy's mom, do you want to meet her? Is that ok with you Percy?" I asked.

"Yeah"

"Cool, I've heard a lot about your mom, Percy; Rachel, Grover, Nico, Thalia, and Annabeth talked a lot about her." Piper said coming to stand next to me and pulling me well behind the boys so they wouldn't hear us.

"What happened between you two, your guys look so uncomfortable with each other," Piper whispered to me.

"He asked me how I've been and I told him and I got a little emotional and he gave me a hug and the next thing I know we were kissing.", Piper squealed so loudly at that point that the boys looked back at us with questioning stares, I gave them one of my famous glares and they turned around so fast that they could have gotten a whiplash, "But then he pulled away and made it very clear that he only remembered me as his best friend and not our relationship and that he had a girlfriend!" I told her. From the look on her face I could tell that the Aphrodite part of her was about to come out so I quickened my past a little faster.

"Annabeth, were not done talking about this!" I heard her call faintly behind me. I had caught up with the boys just as they were about to enter the Iris messaging room; Piper caught up just as I was about to walk into the room. Gods, Piper reminds me so much of Silena.

The Iris messaging room consisted of 1-10 fountains that you could use to Iris message someone. I walked over to the nearest one which had a number 8 painted on the sides of the fountain, and splashed my hand across the water in the fountain to make the rainbow. Before I threw the drachma in the rainbow I turned around and said," Percy, if you want to surprise your mom, go hide." He nodded his head and hid behind the fountain directly across from us. I threw a drachma in the rainbow and said, "Sally Jackson, Upper East Side, Manhattan."

An image of a lady with long brown hair and clear blue eyes, and a guy with salt and pepper hair with the same blue eyes popped up.

"Sally, Paul!" I called out to get their attention.

"Annabeth, it's great to see you!" Paul said.

"Ohhh, Annabeth! It so good to see you, dear! How have you been?" Sally responded when she saw me.

"Nothing much, besides going to Hades, the traditional way, and coming back," I said with false cheeriness. Sally got worried look on her face so I quickly reassured her, "nothing to worry about but that's a story for another day. Anyway, there was a reason I called you but, first let me introduce you to…" I trailed off looking at Piper to continue.

"Piper McLean, a Daughter of Aphrodite. It's a pleasure to meet you Mr. & Mrs. Blofis, I've heard so much about you." Piper exclaimed.

"I'm Leo Valdez, a Son of Hephaestus. It's great to meet you Mr. & Mrs. Blofis; I've heard great things about you guys." Leo said.

"I'm Jason Grace, a Son of Jupiter/Zeus, Thalia's real brother. It's great to meet you two."

"Please call me, Sally. It's a pleasure to meet you, too." Sally responded.

"Yes, it is a pleasure to meet all of you, and call me Paul. I didn't know that Thalia had a full blood brother." Paul said. While he was saying that I looked back at the fountain that Percy was hiding behind and saw that he was staring at me. I gave him a nod for him to come out.

"Sally, Paul there's someone here to see you." I said.

"Mom and Paul, I've missed you guys!" Percy exclaimed.

"Percy!" Both Sally and Paul rejoiced at the same time.

"Ohhh, Percy do you know how worried we've been when you disappeared! Where did you go?" Sally asked Percy. Everyone looked at me with the same expression on their faces: questioning.

"You didn't tell her?" Percy asked.

"No, I wanted to tell her face-to-face but I didn't have the time to go visit her, with all of the things going on a camp and me being its contemporary leader." I replied

"Tell me what?" Sally asked with worry in her tone.

"Perhaps, we should wait till we get back to New York to tell you, guys. Can we come over next Wednesday?" I asked.

"Sure. I'd rather be told in person." Sally said looking at all of us with worry in her eyes.

"Don't worry, Mom we'll be careful, but we have to get back to the others." Percy reassured his mom.

"Say hi to Thalia, Grover, Nico, and Rachel for me." Sally said.

"Me too," Paul added.

"Bye guys, we'll see you soon," I said, before swiping my hand through the Iris message.

"Did you guys get the blankets, pillows, and food for everyone?" I asked as I turned around to face Piper, Jason, and Leo; trying to avoid eye contact with Percy.

"Yeah, let's go join the others before they come looking for us." Jason said. I nodded and started to walk out of the room.

When we got to the beach it was dark and the others had started a campfire. While Jason, Piper, Leo passed out supplies, I walked over to Rachel, Thalia, Grover, and Nico, whereas Percy went to go sit by Gwen and Reyna.

"Sally and Paul said hi." I told them when I sat down next to Grover.

"You guys talked to Paul and Sally! Why didn't you guys come and get me I wanted to see them!" Thalia wined.

"You'll get your chance; we're going to go over to their apartment to explain everything next Wednesday."

"No one told them? I thought someone would have told them." Rachel said. The others nodded in agreement.

"What's wrong with you, Annabeth? Your emotions are a wreck." Grover said.

"Well, how about you try and going to Hades, the traditional way then coming back and having your boyfriend not remember who you are and has another girlfriend!" I snapped at him by then Jason, Piper and Leo had finished passing out the supplies and joined us.

"Sorry."

"No, I'm sorry; it's just been hard on me lately. No it's been hard on all of us lately." I replied.

"Did you tell them what happened?" Piper asked.

"No, she didn't tell us what happened. Now, dear Piper tell us what happened!" Rachel exclaimed. Piper went ahead and told them what had happened and by the time she was done Thalia and Rachel had steam coming out of their ears and were shooting murderous stares at Percy; while the rest of them were looking at me so intently, with their jaws hanging open, that I had to look away.

"Well, I….uh….I…uh…Well, I'm going to go get me a smore." I said and left so quickly that I bumped into Dakota, he was a tall guy about 6'0 (not as tall as Percy though), well-muscled, lean, olive skinned, and black hair with round hazel eyes.

"Sorry," I told him when I balanced myself out.

"No problem. You're name's Annabeth, right?" He asked.

"Yup"

"How's the arm?"

"Good, thanks for asking."

"No problem, so what is your camp like?"

"Camp-Half Blood? Well, it's awesome…..." I went on telling him about it and pretty soon we got off topic and started a whole new conversation on random things and we would tell jokes often. Every once and a while one of us would laugh and if it was me doing the laughing I would always startle the others because I haven't laughed since Percy disappeared. They would look at each other and smiled as if they were saying, "Annabeth's back."

Occasionally, he would try to flirt with me but I would just ignore it and pretend that it never happened. Even though hanging out with Dakota was almost like hanging out with Percy, he would never replace him. The whole time we talked I could feel someone watching me, I looked back to see Percy's sea green eye's looking at me. We locked eyes for a moment and before he looked away I saw one very clear emotion in his eyes: jealousy. When we finally went our separate ways it was about 12:00 am and surprisingly the only people that were sleep were Leo, Gwen, Lupa, and Chiron.

When I had lain down next to Thalia they all stared at me.

"Ok, guys, could you stop looking at me like that it's freaking me out!" I said.

"Fine, so what were Dakota and you talking about?" Rachel asked while wiggling her eyebrows. I swear sometimes she makes me think that she really is a daughter of Aphrodite.

"Gods, Rachel, sometimes I think you really are a daughter of Aphrodite!" I said voicing my thoughts.

"I don't know whether I should be taking that as a complement or as an insult. So, I'm gonna take that as a complement! Tell us what happened!" Rachel whispered-yelled.

"Fine!" I told her and I told them what had happened (which was nothing). I also told them about what happened when Percy and I locked eyes.

"He is so jealous!" Piper sang excitedly.

"No duh, Beauty Queen! I don't know about you guys but I am so tired and I want to get a good night's sleep!" Thalia said while yawning.

"Same here Thals," I replied. With that note Thalia and I laid back on our sleeping bags. Piper and Rachel discussing my love life and occasionally shooting glances at Percy, who was still up and (luckily) looking up at the stars (to be particular Zoë's constellation) to far away in his thoughts so he didn't hear our conversation. They would do the same thing to Dakota who was fast asleep next to Leo who fell asleep only moments after his brother. Before I fell asleep I took one look around the camp fire and saw: Jason and Bobby talking with Nico, the Stoll's, Katie, Clarisse and Chris; Grover talking about something Hazel, Malcom, and Reyna; Piper and Rachel were still talking about something pertaining me; Gwen, Percy, Dakota, Leo, and Thalia were all asleep.

For once in a very long time I fell asleep, forgetting all of my problems, with a small smile on my face.

So, guys how was that? I think it had a crappy ending hopefully the next chapter's ending won't be as crappy as this one. Do you guys think Annabeth is getting over Percy? Do you think Percy was really jealous? And most of all: What do you guys like best about this story and about Memory Lane: Percy Jackson Style? You guys did awesome on giving me around 10 reviews, so as I promised I put a summary of the story I'm thinking of starting.

Okay guys this idea came to me right before I went to sleep, I was watching The Nanny, very funny show may I add, anyways then came along the idea for this story. So what I'm trying to say is that if some of you guys seen the show I'm talking about, I am not trying to make this story like the show. Only thing that I want the story and the show to have in common is the name. With that said here is the summary of the story I'm thinking about doing:

The Nanny:

Percy Jackson's a successful 25 year old Marine Biologist with a 3 year old son who needs a nanny. What happens when his cousin, Thalia, has a friend, Annabeth Chase: college graduate looking to start her own Architecture company, who's perfect for the job, sets them up? Will she get the job? Or will she get more than she bargained for? Is it for the worse or is it for the best that they fell for each other?

How was it? Tell me if I should start it or not! REVIEW! PLEASE!
