"Go Percy!" I yelled.
Percy wasn't even in the pool yet. He wasn't even up next. There were still five races to go until he was up for his last race. My butt was getting tired and I wanted to go home.
That day had gone by fast. Zach left me alone. So did Sierra. I was glad when I didn't run into either of them. Percy had no classes with Sierra, so she didn't bother him at all. I was ecstatic.
"Isn't Percy just so hot?" A girl in front of me asked her friend.
I wanted to punch them. He was wearing a sweat suit. It's not like you could even see his abs- that were amazing, by the way. Riley, Alice, and Jess tried to calm me down. It helped.
"Every girl likes Percy. Don't worry. He loves you," Alice reminded me.
"I know. I just hate them always watching him. It annoys the crap out of me!" I shouted. The girls in front of us had stopped talking about Percy and had walked away.
"You just have to get use to it. The girls are way calmer now that you're here." Riley informed me. "I mean, Jess even liked him for a while."
Jess put her hands up in a defense position, "It was when the school year just started! He was hot! Don't blame me! I found Peter in a month and stopped liking Percy after that."
I just laughed, "It's okay. Some of my best friends have had a little crush on Percy at camp. They would never admit it to him, but I got it out of them during truth or dare."
"That must have sucked!" Alice sighed.
"Actually, they all liked him before we were dating. I started having feelings for him and they backed off. They knew that we would end up together. Heck, everybody at camp knew except us." I explained to them.
They all laughed.
"How did you guys not know?" Riley asked.
"I liked this guy Luke. He was a few years older than me, though. I had run away when I was seven. Him and my friend Thalia had found me and brought me to camp. I had a crush on him. It was major. He kind of made some bad choices and left the camp. Percy was there for me. It was then that I realized that I actually did have feelings for him." I informed them.
"You ran away when you were seven?" Jess asked in disbelief.
I only nodded. I noticed Percy taking off his seats. His abs were flexed and looked great! I was almost drooling. Every time I saw him, it was like the first time. I adored that feeling.
"Go Percy!" I yelled, again.
This time he waved to me.
He jumped in the pool and started to swim the 200 butterfly. It's his easiest one. Everyone else finds it super hard. Not Percy. He enjoys it.
Of course, Percy won. Before going into the locker room to shower off, he came over to me and gave me a little kiss. I blushed. All of the girls just giggled. I scolded them while Percy trotted off.
All of the girls' boyfriends came out before Percy. He took forever. When he finally came out, I was all alone. He was actually wet. He didn't will the water to leave him after the shower like he normally does. I never found it weird.
"Cheater," I called out across the pool.
"You are so lucky that nobody's here!" Percy cried as he made his way to me.
I started to scoot the opposite way, "Oh, yeah. And what are you going to do about it?"
"This," He yelled as he started to chase after me.
I screamed and kept on running around the pool. I climbed up onto the high diving board. I was high up in the air. Percy wasn't afraid of heights, but he refused to come up and meet me.
"Come on, Annabeth, get down from there!" he shouted.
"What if I don't want to?" I asked him.
"How are you going to get down?" He asked with sass.
I looked down into the pool and held my breath. I could barely hear him say,"no," before I leaped off. Unfortunately, he willed the water to catch me midair and bring me back to him. I wanted out of the water hold, but he set me down next to him and wrapped his arms around me.
"You're down," He whispered.
We were centimeters away from the water. I still wanted to go swimming. I pushed him in the pool and jumped in after him.
I tried to swim up to the surface, but Percy just kept hold of me. He created an air bubble big enough for us both to fit in. It was an amazing underwater kiss. Not as good as the first one, but still great.
After our little underwater make-out session, Percy drove us home. We jammed out in the car. I mean, we were singing along to the radio. I always did, but Percy wasn't that much of a singer. He was probably just happy about his swim meet. And me being there. It still shocked him every morning when he woke up and found me lying there next to him.
Anyways, Sally told to Percy to go to his room when we got home. She wanted to talk to me. Percy couldn't hear it. Percy tentatively left but not without kissing me good luck. I didn't think too much of it. Sally always liked me. I was a good influence on Percy and I was a girl. Sally wanted to have another child. This time, she wanted a girl. I couldn't blame her. I wouldn't want to have another Percy running around trying to spew water like his big brother. That would be hilarious, though.
"Annabeth, I know your secret." She started.
"What do you mean, Sally?" I asked. Really, I was confused. It's not every day someone tells you that they know your secret.
"I know how you've been sleeping in Percy's room. I walked in on you two this morning. It was early. Neither of you were awake, but I could still see you there." Sally explained further.
I blushed, "Sally, it was a onetime thing."
She just laughed, "Annabeth, I knew the first night that you were going to sleep in Percy's room. I would have done the same thing if I were your age."
"You're not mad?" I asked.
"No, I'm not. I can't blame you. You are living in your boyfriend's house. I would blame you if you weren't."
"Oh. You do?"
"Yes. Paul caught you two the first night, just so you know."
"He did? What did he say?"
Sally laughed again as she sat next to me at the table, "He just laughed. He would have done the same thing. Although, I think he expected Percy to come into your room."
"No. I couldn't sleep and I wandered into his room. He was still awake and let me sleep with him. After that, I just slept with him. I couldn't really sleep in my room."
"You don't have to explain it to me. I just was wondering if you two were doing anything other than sleeping."
I blushed, "I mean, we make out and stuff, but nothing serious. We haven't gone that far yet."
"Good. I don't feel comfortable with talking to Percy about this sort of stuff."
"I understand. He's hard to talk to sometimes."
She laughed, "That's true. Sometimes, I have to splash water on him to get his attention. That always works."
"Is that all?" I asked.
"Yeah. You can go back to Percy."
I left her at the table to go to Percy, like she said I could do. I had to explain what just happened to me. It was pretty funny. That's not the only reason he needed to know, though. He needed to know that his parents saw us and were suspecting that we were doing something else.
I explained my conversation with Sally to him. He just saw there with a blank face the entire time. When I finished, he just laughed.
"Seaweed brain! Why are you laughing!" I shouted at him.
"It's just that you're taking this so seriously!" He cried as he pulled me closer to him. I wrapped my legs on either side of him and sat on his lap. "We know that we're not having sex. That's all."
I kissed him, "It doesn't matter. They thought that we were. What if my mom thought that we were? She would kill you!"
Percy started to laugh again, "Your mom can watch us all of the time. I think she would notice if we were having sex. And for the last time, we're not."
"I know that! I just don't like people suspecting that we are!" I shouted at him.
To make me feel better, Percy kissed me again. This time, instead of just pulling away, his soft lips found my jaw and made their way down my neck. He kissed my collarbone: my weak spot. I gave up trying to stop him. I just let him kiss me. It was nicer than worrying about nonsense.
~o~
The next day at school, I was extremely tired. We had made out for a while. I mean, his meet was until eight. After that, we went out to eat. I talked to Sally; then made out with Percy. I forced Percy to do his homework. He finished in a hurry, only to make out with me, again. After all of that, it was eleven. I couldn't really sleep that well. I kept having these nightmares about the Titan war. That kept me and Percy up. Every time I would wake up, I freaked out and rammed into Percy. Either that or I started screaming and fidgeting in my sleep, causing Percy to try to wake me up. That was not very fun. I ended up with Percy trying to sooth me back to sleep, but not being able to close my eyes.
I kept on remembering the final battles of the Titan war. It seemed as real as I remembered it being. That was torture. The one that kept popping up was when I took the dagger for Percy, revealing the spot of Achilles Heel. I thought I was going to die. I said goodbye to Percy. I started to see his face leave. Then, I would scream and be popped somewhere else. It was just as real as the actual war.
"Are you okay?" Hannah asked me in Science. She was doing most of the lab that we were working on. I had met Hannah on Monday and we became friends. Her hair's like Clarisse's. I liked that. It looked good on them.
"Yeah, I just barely got any sleep last night. I kept on having all of these nightmares. Percy tried to help me, but it didn't really help much."
"I'm sorry. I know how you feel. Sometimes I just can't sleep. It sucks!"
"So, where were we?" I asked.
We finished the lab and class was over. I walked over to lunch. Today, Percy wasn't going to be eating with us. He and Brian had to do something for swim team. I had packed my lunch, so I didn't have to go wait in line. I was the first at our table to sit down. The others joined me in seconds. They seemed worried because my face was on the table.
"Annabeth, are you okay?" Riley asked me as she sat down.
"Is it because Percy isn't here to eat with you? Because it's only for today. He's doing something for the team," Jake informed me.
I laughed and looked at them, "No, I'm just exhausted!"
Austin pointed towards my lunch, "Are you going to eat that?"
I pushed it towards him without giving it a second thought. I wasn't hungry. I was too tired to eat anything besides my breakfast which was only a waffle.
"Why couldn't you sleep?" Riley asked me.
"Last night, I kept on having these nightmares. I would either wake up screaming or start hitting Percy and talking. Percy had to wake me up and calm me down. It didn't really help. I couldn't sleep. The nightmares were so real. My mind just kept on seeing them over and over again." I explained.
"Wait! You slept with Percy?" Jess asked.
"Is that all you got out of that?" I asked,
"No, but that's what I'm wondering about! You sleep with Percy?" Jess shouted this time.
I had to explain to them how I couldn't fall asleep in my bed. It was pretty much the same thing that I had told Sally. It was way more detailed, though. They wanted to know everything. That wasn't so good for me.
"Way to go, Percy!" Jake murmured.
"It's not like they're doing anything. Are you?" Alice added.
I laughed, "No. We aren't. It's funny. Sally, Percy's mom, asked me the same question last night." I thought aloud.
"Maybe we can read each other's minds!" Alice shouted.
"Yeah, right!" Riley returned, "It's just an obvious question. I was going to ask it."
Jess interrupted before Alice could yell at her, "Can't you sleep? I mean, wouldn't Sally let you stay home and sleep?"
"My mom is kind of, well, she's big on education and knowledge. She wouldn't let me stay home instead of going to school. I didn't want to ask Sally if I could." I told her.
"I'm sure your mom would have understood," Peter added. That was the first time he talked all lunch.
"Hah, I hope. You see, she doesn't really like Percy. My mom and his dad are kind of enemies. It's a long story, but she never really approved of our relationship." I muttered.
"Way to be a rebel, Annabeth!" Austin shouted.
"Your mom should love Percy. He's awesome!" Riley replied.
"I wish. She can barely visit me without commenting on Percy and his dad. She despises his dad!"
"Isn't it kind of funny how you two met and your parents hate each other?" Jake asked.
"I mean, at the camp we go to, a lot of kids' parents know each other. I guess it's weird, but we're used to it." I explained.
"Okay. That makes sense, I guess?" Brian mumbled.
"My dad's divorced! Maybe I could go to the camp and see what-"Jess tried.
"No! I mean, the only way to get into there is through generations of campers. You have to have all of this stuff. It just takes a while to get in!" I lied.
They stopped asking questions after that. I was glad. I was too tired to answer all of those useless things.
