Chapter 3: A Chance

PERCY'S POV

It's my mom's birthday tomorrow and she's having a celebration.

"Percy, would you mind inviting your friends over?"

"Sure, mom. I'll invite Annabeth and the others."

"Great," she paused, "oh, wait."

"Yep?"

"Did you just say Annabeth?"

"Yep."

"Annabeth... As in Annabeth Chase?"

"Uh, huh…"

"Oh, I see. You're friends again, huh?"

"Yep. I bumped into her last week at the mall."

"I see."

"I'm glad I've moved on already."

That was true. At least, I thought it was. Until, that time.

"Right."

"Okay, I'll go inform them now."

"Okay."

Then I went home and e-mailed everyone.

…SALLY'S BIRTHDAY…

"Happy Birthday, mom."

"Thanks, honey. Will you help me with these?"

"Yeah, sure."

We prepared all of the stuff needed for her celebration. Hours later, people started to arrive. Well, I wouldn't admit it if anyone asked me, but, with each person who steps on the door, I couldn't resist hoping that it would be Annabeth.

Serving mom's guests was tiring. I was quite exhausted and such, so I rested on the couch.

Then, there was an extremely, undeniably gorgeous girl, wearing a brown dress, with a pink bow wrapped around her waist, standing by the door. Yes, finally, it was Annabeth. I couldn't help staring at her, and honestly, I could've spent the rest of the day, just staring at this beauty.

"Uh, Percy…"

"Uh, oh… Huh?"

"Hi… would you mind letting me in?"

"Oh, yeah, right… Come in… yeah, come in," I smiled, embarrassed.

"'kay."

"Mom's at the kitchen. Yeah, uh, follow me."

Then she followed me, to where mom was.

"Hey, mom."

"yes?"

"hi, Ms. Jackson," she barged in.

"Oh, Annabeth, glad to see you again."

Annabeth smiled.

"Happy Birthday."

"Thanks."

"Ookay, I think I'm not needed here, so I'll just go check on the other visitors."

Then, I turned around when…

"Oh my god. Sorry… Sorry… I'm really sorry… I didn't mean to," a female voice said.

Yes, she spilled juice on my shirt, my shirt… my favorite shirt! Oh gods!

"Yeah, It's cool…"

"I'm really sorry."

"No problem."

Then, instead of going to the living room, I decided to just go to my room.

"mom, I'll just go change."

"yeah, sure, honey."

Then, I went upstairs. I headed to my room, took of my shirt, and proceeded to the bathroom, to take a shower.

As droplets of water touched my skin, I couldn't help remembering the incident, back then. I couldn't help remembering that time, when I saw Annabeth… kissing someone else. I didn't notice it, but a tear rolled down my cheek. I wasn't sure though, since I was talking a shower. Then, I heard my room's door open. At first, I thought it was my mom, because, who would go inside my room, aside from her? Then, I thought it was Annabeth… Well, it was possible, but why would she? I grabbed my towel, and wrapped it around my waist.

As I went out of the bathroom, Id saw a silhouette of a girl by my nightstand.

"Mom?"

No, I was wrong. It wasn't my mom, not at all. It was Annabeth. She was, like, holding pieces of paper. Oh gods, by my nightstand, pieces of paper? This couldn't possibly be.

"A-annabeth?"

I moved closer. She really was Annabeth, and she was holding the pieces of the picture of her, which I had torned last time.

"Annabeth…"

"Percy… My picture…"

"That was months ago…"

"But… it's… why haven't you thrown it away yet?"

"I couldn't bring myself to."

"But…"

Then, silence filled the atmosphere, for a second or two.

"Percy…?"

"Yes?"

"Please give me a chance…"

"A chance?"

"Yes, please give me a chance… a chance to prove that I really love you."

I was speechless…

"Ever since that day, I never really forgot about you. I still love you, Percy."

"Annabeth… I.. I… I love you, too."

"R-r-really?"

"yes.. I love you, Annabeth…"

"Then, I took a step forward… bent down and met her lips…

ANNABETH'S POV

I was working on my laptop, when someone, suddenly, sent me a message. It was… oh the gods… Percy. He sent a message, inviting me to Ms. Jackson, percy's mom's birthday.

…SALLY'S BIRTHDAY…

"Uh, Percy," I said, awkwardly.

"Uh, oh… Huh?"

"Hi… would you mind letting me in?"

"Oh, yeah, right… Come in… yeah, come in," he smiled.

"'kay."

"Mom's at the kitchen. Yeah, uh, follow me."

I did as he said and followed him to the kitchen.

"Hey, mom."

"yes?"

"hi, Ms. Jackson," I greeted.

"Oh, Annabeth, glad to see you again."

I smiled.

"Happy Birthday."

"Thanks."

"Ookay, I think I'm not needed here, so I'll just go check on the other visitors," Percy cut in, heading to the living room.

Then…

"Oh my god. Sorry… Sorry… I'm really sorry… I didn't mean to," a female voice said.

She spilled juice all over Percy's shirt. Percy's shirt… yes… Percy's favorite shirt…

"Yeah, It's cool…"

"I'm really sorry."

"No problem."

"Mom, I'll just go change."

"yeah, sure, honey."

Then, he headed towards the stairs to his room.

After, like five minutes, the telephone rang, and Ms. Jackson answered it.

"Annabeth, sweetie, would you mind calling Percy?"

"Uh, yeah, sure."

"Tell him, someone's on the phone."

"Right."

Then, I headed to Percy's room. I opened the door. He wasn't there, but, I figured he was taking a shower. I went in anyway. I looked around the room, and saw so many changes done. I browsed the room while waiting for him. And, there, I saw something on his nightstand, some torn paper, I think. It was torn, yes, but it wasn't paper. It was my picture, my torn picture. Then, the door of the bathroom opened. Percy came out, with only a towel, covering the lower part of his body.

"Mom?"

He took another step forward. I didn't move.

"A-annabeth?"

He moved closer. And I felt like crying.
