Hey guys, sorry it took so long to update. I really need some reviews. They help me update faster. Plus, anything you want me to add or fix or something just tell me. I'll see about it! Thanks! review!
I woke up to a smiling seaweed brain next to me. His eyes were still closed, and I desperately wanted them to open up. I wanted to see his sea green eyes in the light. A small smile creped onto my lips as I nuzzled my head into Percy's neck. I realized that there was sand on my face. Gently, I brushed it off, trying not to awaken Percy. He looked so calm as he slept. Then I realized that we were still on the beach.
We must have fallen asleep when we finished making out. Odds are I fell asleep first; seaweed brain probably didn't want to wake me up by carrying me to my cabin. I was glad that he didn't. I wanted to stay cuddled besides Percy forever.
By the looks of the sun, I would guess that it was nearing seven o'clock. Everyone would start waking up pretty soon. I needed to wake Percy up, but I didn't want to. I wanted to stay with him on the beach. Both of us sleeping would be great. I knew that wasn't going to happen. We had stuff to do. Actually, we didn't. I forgot that we were off this week. I mean, we still had to pack for our trip to San Francisco. Other than that, we had nothing to do.
I wanted to spend every minute of it with Percy.
To wake him up, I tried to shake him. It didn't work. I decided on a different tactic. Slowly, I touched my lips onto his. He returned the kiss, which led me to believe that he was awake.
I pulled away, "Get up Seaweed Brain!"
"Five more minutes?" He sighed.
"If you get up, then we can kiss some more," I tried to say in my best seductive voice.
Percy shot strait up, which caused me to rise with him.
"I'm up! Where's my kiss?" He asked as he leaned into me.
"After you brush your teeth. Don't forget that we broke curfew," I reminded him.
"So I woke up that fast for no kiss? I have to wait?"
"You'll still get your kiss. Trust me, you will. That's only if you beat me to my cabin!"
Before he realized what was happening, I hopped off and sprinted towards my cabin. I turned around to see Percy trotting after me. He still wasn't fully awake. I beat him by a long shot. When he finally came over, I slammed the door in his face and giggled. I giggled too loud; my whole cabin woke up and groaned in unison.
"Oops!" I giggled again.
"Annabeth, why are you waking us up?" My little sister, Bella, complained.
"Why aren't you asleep? Where were you?" Malcom asked as I walked over to my bunk.
I blushed, "Um, I might have been on the beach."
"No doubt with Percy," Elena muttered.
"I heard that! And Percy's not bad. He's sweet, and cute, and nice, and caring, and hot, and a great kisser, and-" I trailed off dreamily.
All of my siblings groaned, but got out of bed. Malcom and Elena came to sit next to me.
"What did you two do all night?" Elena asked me.
"Nothing. We just slept. We were making out on the beach; I fell asleep in his arms. Next thing I knew, it was morning." I answered.
Malcom got mad, but it was a fake mad, "Did he not listen to the talk I gave him? I told him not to do anything stupid!"
"We didn't do anything stupid!" I laughed, "We fell asleep looking at the stars. It was sweet. Malcom, we didn't do anything bad."
"How far did you go with him?" Elena asked. Malcom groaned and dragged himself away from us.
"We just made out, Elena. Nothing happened, I swear!"
"Did you want to go farther?"
"I am not having girl talk with you! Shouldn't you go get ready for the day? I'm pretty sure breakfast is soon!"
Elena sighed, but did as I suggested. I was the last to shower. By the time I got out, everyone was gone to eat. Apparently, I took longer than I thought.
As I walked out of my cabin, fully clothed and ready for the day, I noticed Percy sitting at his table. Surprisingly, Mr. D and Chiron weren't there. No adults were there except for the older campers. I was confused as to where they were. I grabbed my food and offered some food to Athena. I threw in some to Aphrodite for me and Percy.
I sauntered over to the Poseidon table and sat besides Percy. He was shocked. No one does this. The last person to do it got in severe trouble. It was a girl named Teri from the Aphrodite cabin sitting with Will. She got in a lot of trouble.
"Um, wise girl, what are you doing here?" Percy asked as I felt everybody's eyes on us.
"What? Do you not want me to sit here? I can leave if you want," I told him as I started to get up.
Percy pulled me down by the waist and pulled me closer to him, "No. I like having you here."
"Good."
"I was just wondering why you were here. I don't want you to get in trouble."
"Chiron and Mr. D aren't here. Besides, Chiron owes us. I think he'll let this slide. It may turn out being a permanent thing." I joked.
"I would certainly enjoy that!" Percy said, kissing me.
"My siblings asked me about you. They don't really like you that much. They kept on asking about what we were doing last night."
"Oh? And what did you tell them about me?"
"Just how we fell asleep looking at the stars after we made out for a while."
"Wise girl, you got that wrong. You fell asleep while looking at the stars. I fell asleep looking at you. You're cute when you sleep."
"I don't snore, do I? Or do I drool, like you? That would be bad!"
"Oh, so drooling is bad? I do believe those were some of the first words you said to me. What were they? Oh, yeah, you drool in your sleep."
"You remember that?"
"How could I not remember the first words that drew me to you?"
"You've liked me since then?"
"Kind of. I mean, I didn't know that I liked you."
"I liked you, too, seaweed brain. So, how long was I out before you fell asleep, too?"
Percy thought about it, "I looked at you for a while, but it felt like longer. When I'm with you, time just isn't right. I think it was around an hour until I fell asleep."
"Why didn't you wake me? You could've taken me back to my cabin."
"I liked watching you sleep. You were so peaceful. I couldn't interrupt that!"
I didn't want him to take me back. I wanted to sleep next to him. I still want to be with him. All I wanted to do was snuggle up next to him and lay on the beach. I knew it wasn't going to happen for a while. Those memories were enough to keep me from just cuddling up to him right then.
"Well, I'm glad. I woke up feeling happy."
"You felt happy?"
"Yeah, I was happy when I woke up on your chest."
"Oh, you were? Maybe we should do it more often. Wait, then why did you wake me up?"
I laughed, "We were out after curfew, seaweed brain! People would start talking and I couldn't let that happen. Besides, I didn't want my cabin to know I was out with you all night. They would do something to you. I guess that didn't really work out."
"Nope, and they still despise me."
"And they always will hate you! Don't worry; Malcom and Elena are kind of on your side. I will always be by your side. Do you remember what I told you years ago?" Percy shook his head, so I continued, "I told you that no matter what sides our parents fought on, I would fight by your side. I meant it!"
"I will, too!" I blushed as Percy leaned in to kiss me. I met him halfway.
We heard some whistles coming from every table. The Aphrodite table was running around, already spreading gossip about us, no doubt. We both blushed as I pulled away. I wanted to kiss him more, but the campers wouldn't agree to it. My cabin was especially mad. Malcom came over and sat across us.
"Are you going to make out the rest of breakfast?" He asked.
"No, we won't. I mean, unless you want us to, Malcom." I joked.
"I don't really want you to. I'm pretty sure our cabin doesn't want you to, either!" He sounded serious.
"Relax, Malcom, I was just kidding. We won't make out the whole breakfast. We'll make out later during our free time." I replied.
Percy interrupted Malcom, who was about to make a witty remark, "Wait, we are?"
"Yes, we are."
"Oh, I like that idea!" Percy smiled. Instantly, he straightened up and seemed happier (if that was even possible).
"Anyways, Malcom, I'm pretty sure that you aren't supposed to be over here." I tried to make Malcom leave.
"I'm pretty sure that you aren't, either, sis," He smirked.
"Chiron owes us some favors. You know, cause we saved the world."
"And I didn't?"
"No, I just mean that we fought Kronos."
"So, I didn't help at all?"
"Malcom, you did. I just meant-"
"Relax, Annabeth. I was just kidding. Seriously, though, are you going to be joining us today?" Malcom laughed.
I tensed up, "No, I'm going to spend the day with Percy."
Malcom got up and walked back to the Athena cabin. He told them something and they all walked away, starring daggers at us. I laughed in Percy's chest. They were never going to get used to us dating. Well, all of them but Malcom and Elena. They actually didn't care. Malcom was just putting on an act. He actually liked Percy. Percy wrapped his arms around me tightly. I could stay there forever.
"So, what are we going to do today?" I asked him when I finished laughing.
"What do you want to do?" He asked as his lips barely touched my hair.
"We have to pack later today. You know, to go to San Francisco."
"How are we getting there?"
Oh crap, I forgot about that. Percy couldn't fly out there. Zeus would blast him out of the sky! "I'll get train tickets. That means that we'll have to leave tomorrow if we want to make it there. We might even have to leave tonight! I didn't plan for this. I forgot that you can't fly. Crap! I'll have to check the tickets and see how long it takes to get there by train…" I kept on going.
Percy noticed that I wasn't going to stop anytime soon, so he put his finger underneath my chin and lifted it up. I was still rambling on, so he planted a kiss on my lips.
"You done, wise girl?" He asked as he pulled away.
"Yeah," And we kissed some more.
~O~
I pulled out Daedalus's laptop and got onto the internet. I wasn't afraid of monsters finding our signal. Most of them were dead. I sat on Percy's lap on his bed. He was playing with my hair, twisting it in his fingers. I could feel his hot breath on my neck. Percy's other arm was wrapped around my waist. I searched for trains.
"Seaweed brain, we'll have to leave tonight. Luckily, there's one leaving at eight. We can get there in time, right?" I asked.
"Yeah, we can. We'll have to start packing soon."
"I should go then."
As I started to get up, Percy pulled me back down on top of him.
"I need your help packing."
"You're such a seaweed brain!"
"Is there any other?" Percy asked.
"None that I would like. You're an original." I pecked his cheek. Percy had other ideas, but I stopped him, "We have to pack, remember?"
Percy groaned, but got up. I helped him pack everything that I thought we would need. I didn't dare touch his boxers. I didn't even look at him while he packed them. I did blush, though. He noticed and tried to get me to look at him, but I couldn't. It's not like I didn't like Percy like that, it's just that it was weird. Once we finished packing his bag, I ran over to my cabin to pack. Percy told Chiron what was going on, or I told him to. I hoped that he did. When he came over to me, he nodded like it was all taken care of. I packed really fast. We still had hours to waste.
Since we could do whatever we wanted, we decided to go to the beach. I wanted to swim. Percy had another idea. He splashed me with water. I wanted to get him back, and I tried as hard as I could, but he didn't get wet at all. The water just avoided him. He made me get soaked with water. I hated it! I couldn't move very well in the water without him making the water do something. A lot of the times he just had a huge wave attack me. I eventually hopped on his back. He went underwater, breathing normal, while I had to struggle to get back up to the surface.
After the beach, we both went into our cabins and showered. By that time, it was nearing six. We had to start going to make sure that we wouldn't miss our train. I assured Percy that we wouldn't- thanks to my awesome planning- but he was still unsure. I was right; we were there earlier than we needed to be. By an hour! I just rolled my eyes every time he apologized.
