ANNABETHS POV:

Yes. Percy and me FINALLY get some alone time.

Woah. Did I really just say that? I don't still like him … do I?

Me and Percy were walking to the cabin, when we saw Mr. D "conveniently" sitting right in front of Percy's cabin. Right there in front of it. Playing his stupid Pinochle game, humming to himself.

"Great." Was all I said, as we hid behind a bush.

"Well, we can go somewhere else…?" Percy said, with an edge of hope in his voice.

"Noooo, cause if we get up and try going anywhere, Mr. D is gonna see us. And if we get caught not in training were gonna get in a lot of trouble." I said, mad that Mr. D had to ruin there alone time.

Percy started looking around the dirt below them, dusting it out of the way. He found a rock about the size of my fist and picked it up.

"What are you do-" I started, but before I could finish, Percy chucked the rock, so hard, he made a grunt noise. It hit one of Mr. D's game pieces and it fell on the ground.

"Dang wind." He whispered under his breath, and bent down to pick it up, turning around.

"C'mon." Percy said, and he grabbed my hand and I was half dragged, half running to the cabin. We came in and closed the door right as Mr. D sat down.

I walked over and flopped down on Percy's bed. It smelled SO good… just like him.

"Hey, that's my bed…" He said, laughing.

"Shutup." I said, and smiled at him.

There was silence for a few minutes, then Percy came and sat down right next to my legs.

"Hey Annabeth … Grover. What am I going to do about this situation? Even YOU talked to Chiron, and he couldn't come to his senses."

"Percy, I honestly have no idea." I said. I was literally completely out of ideas.

I looked at Percy and he started tearing up. "I hate this. I hate this camp, I hate Chiron. I hate Grover. He was the one who pretty much brought me to this stupid place. I can't do this Annabeth. I just can't." There were tears starting to roll down his cheeks, then he whispered, "help me."

I felt so bad. I could feel his pain. His hurt. His sadness. Seeing him cry made me want to kill someone. I sat up and hugged him.

"It's gonna be ok, Percy. I will help you. I'll get you out of this." I said, feeling the water fill up the bottoms of my eyes. Then I whispered, "I promise."

I stopped hugging him, and looked into his eyes. I could see through them that he truly did need help. I could see it in his eyes. And at that moment I did something. Something that neither of us expected.

…

I leaned in to his soft lips, and kissed him.

He just looked at me, with wide eyes, surprised. "Annabeth."

"Hmm?"

"Did you do that just to make me feel better?"

"Nope." I said.

"Why did you do that then?" He asked.

"I don't know… No, yes I do. Percy, I still like you. A lot." I can't believe I just said that.

"Really? I still like you too…" He said. "There is not a day that goes by that I regret breaking up with you. Not a day."

A long pause. Nobody said a word.

"And, um, I really liked that kiss." He said, and smiled at me. He rubbed his hand across me cheek gently, then grabbed my head and pulled it in toward him.

He started kissing my lips softly, and I put my arms around his neck. I wasn't quite sure how long we were kissing. It felt like days. But I didn't want it to stop.

Percy pulled away and smiled at me.

"Um, excuse me ?" I said, "That didn't need to end…"

He just smiled again and patted his lap, gesturing me to come sit on it.

I climbed onto his lap, facing him, as close to his stomach I could get, and we started kissing again, putting my arms around his neck. Still kissing, I got up and moved little bit to adjust how I was sitting, and I accidentally grinded on him.

"Mmm…" A soft moan escaped his lips, and I really liked it.

I felt the need to… start taking of my clothes, and apparently Percy did too, because he took off his shirt, while we were still sitting, revealing his really hot body. I never saw that before, I guess he'd just been recently working on it. I started pulling off my shirt, and threw it on the ground.

And then we were just sitting there. Kissing. In my black push-up bra and shorts, Percy shirtless and wearing his pants. He put his hands on my hips, and he started kissing me more roughly. He started moving his hands slowly, ever so slowly, up my torso, until he reached my breasts, slowly moving his hands toward the back of my bra. And he unlatched it. It fell off. Onto the bed.

And then I stopped. This didn't feel right… we weren't dating anymore. "Percy…" I said slowly backing away.

"Mmm..?" He said, having a hard time keeping his eyes of my boobs.

"This doesn't feel right… Like… were not dating. We shouldn't be doing this." I said, putting my bra back on.

"Ugh… your right." He said, "But if we were dating?"

I smiled, "Yeah, we could do this again…But right now … nah…"

"Kay." He said, and put his shirt back on, me doing the same. I looked at the clock and it said 2:27. Training was going to end soon anyways… didn't want anyone walking in on that.

I decided I wanted to sleep, to clear my mind of everything that has happened today. I lie down on Percy's bed and close my eyes. He pulled the blanket onto me, then lay down behind me, and kissed the back of my head.

For the first time today, I was actually happy.
