Diclaimer: I'm not Rick Riordan
Hey there! Wow! Penultimate chapter? This cannot be real... I'm really sorry I didn't update sooner, but I had a problem. I couldn't update the chapter because Fanfiction wouldn't let me, Don't ask me why. I still don't know. Changing the subject, hope you all enjoy Chapter 16 and don't forget to leave a review so I can know what you think about my fanfiction!
Annabeth's POV:
As the water ran, I could feel more relaxed. But it didn't last much. Suddenly, it turned cold. Although I was surprise, all I did was graduate the water again. But then, it turned so hot I burnt. It turned cold again. Then hot. Then cold. Then hot. Then…
"Percy…" I said to myself
The water kept changing and I kept burning and freezing in every single second. I turned off the water, to finish the torture. But I guess my boyfriend liked the way I looked when I suffer. The water kept running, first as hot as summer, then as cold as winter. I grabbed a towel and got out of the shower. I wrapped myself with the towel and went straight to Percy's room.
"Ok, you know what? I wasn't wrong!" I said rudely as I opened the door, only to find Percy trying hard not to laugh
"About what?" he asked trying to contain himself
"You only play romantic when you do something you shouldn't! And this thing about the shower… please Percy grow up!" I was really angry
"No, actually, you were wrong. I hadn't done anything when I played romantic with you" he was calm, but I knew he wanted to laugh "I did it later. So, I guess I also play romantic when I'm about to do something I shouldn't."
"Perseus Jackson I swear that…"
"Hey, don't talk anymore. First go and…"
"And do what, Percy?!" I interrupted him. Really, I was furious.
"And change. You are soaking wet and in a towel"
I turned as red as a tomato. My reaction made him chuckle, which made me even more angry.
"You know what? Get out of my room right now!" I said rudely
"Err… Annabeth?"
"What?!" I shouted
"You're in my room" he couldn't contain it anymore, so he started laughing
I got out and went to my room. I changed and brushed my hair. I was angry at Percy. Why would he do that?
A knock on the door pulled me out of my thoughts. I knew it was Percy, so I didn't open. I didn't want to talk to him.
"Annabeth…" I heard him said "Come on, open up."
I still didn't answer. He deserved it. Another knock. He was getting impatient and I knew that. I wanted so badly to open the door and hug him… but no. He deserved being ignored.
"Please, Annabeth, I'm sorry. Open up, I know you're in there" his voice was soft, full of concern
I couldn't resist it anymore. I ran towards the door, opened and pushed Percy inside. Once there, I kissed him. He was so surprised, that he didn't kiss me back the first seconds. Then, he wrapped his arms around me and I wrapped mine around his neck. We stayed there for about a minute and then, we pulled apart. With our forehead touching, he planted a kiss on my nose.
"Does this mean that I'm forgiven?" He whispered
"Not, absolutely not"
"Why?"
"Because I don't want to forgive you" I wanted to tease him a little
"Come on, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you"
"Not enough"
"You are the most beautiful girlfriend a guy could ask for. You're perfect, Annabeth"
"You are close…"
"I'm a seaweed brain"
"Perfect"
We kissed again. Percy sat on my bed and I sat next to him. My hands were around his neck, while his left hand was on my back and the right one on my knee. When we pulled apart, Percy kissed my cheek. Then, he whispered in my ear.
"Am I forgiven now?"
"Yeah, I guess so"
After I said that, I gave him a peck on the lips and he kissed my hand.
"I love you, Annabeth"
"No more than I do" I gave him another peck
"Do you have your luggage ready?"
"Almost. What about you?"
"No. Let's finish packing so we can go in an hour"
"Right. See you later"
"See you later, princess"
"Don't call me princess"
"Why not?"
"I'm not one"
"Maybe you are not a princess, but you are my princess."
I giggled after his comment. I also blushed. I kissed his cheek once again and he left. You know what? Maybe I was wrong after all. Percy didn't play romantic only when he does something he shouldn't. Moments like those make me think I have the best boyfriend ever.
An hour later, I was ready to go back to New York.
