Tears
Tears.
Lots of tears.
Annabeth sat on her bed and cried. Percy was such a doofus. She remembered the day before so clearly, like it was yesterday….
Annabeth walked down the school halls, books in her hands. She walked to her locker, and saw Percy over by his own locker. She smiled and started to walk to him. Then, Percy turned, only to smile and lock lips with a girl. Annabeth froze in her tracks. She had just transferred to Goode, only to find out Percy was dating someone. She turned and ran, ignoring the tears rolling down her cheeks.
Annabeth sighed and wiped her cheeks. She walked over to the sink and turned it on. She decided to Iris-Message Percy. Percy's image came to her sights.
"Hi Percy." She mumbled. He jumped and turned around. When he saw her, he smiled.
"What's up, Wise Girl?"
"I transferred to Goode." She said, getting straight to the point.
"Awesome!" Percy yelled. She smiled a little bit.
"So, how's your friends…" She asked. He smirked and said,
"I have a few friends. Now many are popular. My girlfriend, though, is popular." He was cut off by a stifled sob. Annabeth smacked her hand to her mouth.
"Annabeth?" He asked. "Why are you crying?"
"I'm not!" She said, then cursed herself for talking. Her voice was shaky. Percy sighed and said he would be right over. The connection ended and Annabeth was free to cry on the bathroom floor.
Percy ran as fast as he could. He slipped and fell just outside her door. Cursing, he flung the door open and ran to her room. She wasn't there. He frowned, then remembered the bathroom. Sure enough, she was still there. She gasped at the sight of him, and wiped her tears. He sat next to her and wrapped an arm around her.
"What's this about?" He asked. She shook her head, and pushed him lightly.
"Percy, do you know why I came back?" She asked, standing up and walking to the door. Before he could answer, she turned around.
"To see you. I mean, I missed you since camp, and I didn't expect you to have a—" She broke off, sobbing. She ran to her room, closely followed by Percy. She sat on the bed and pulled him with her. She pushed him on the floor and looked over him.
"OW! What was that for?"
She growled and shook her head. Tears fell on Percy's shirt, and he stood up and hugged her, ignoring her pushes. He held her at arm's distance and told her,
"I never liked her anyways. She was kinda stupid."
She chuckled then pushed him lightly.
"You aren't getting forgiven that easy."
He smiled then kissed her.
"Never mind." She said.
