Ya, I don't even know what to say at this point… just SORRRY I guess… my life has just been a mess. And ya…
Percy slowing leaned down so that their faces were in line. Their lips had barely brushed when a ringing interrupted the quiet world they had drifted off to.
Annabeth groaned before smiling and shaking her head. Percy straightened up and hung his head down in frustration.
"I have the worst timing, don't I?" he concluded.
Annabeth chuckled and she leaned into him resting her head on his chest.
"The WORST" she agreed while still clinging to his neck.
Annabeth rolled her eyes at the name on the screen.
Mom.
Ahh, she always had the greatest timing, didn't she?
Just as she was about to press answer, a strong hand ripped the phone out of her hands.
"Hey! Percy it's my-" Too bad for Annabeth, Percy didn't take protesting. She wasn't even able to finish her train of thought before his lips came crashing down on hers. Startled at first, she didn't know how to react. Slowly her lips started to move in sync with Percy's. Her fingers ran through his hair, while his arms wrapped around her, pulling her close. Her mind felt like it was going to explode. She had barely known the kid a week, and here she was. In her mind it was all crazy, but in her heart it all felt right.
Annabeth slowly pulled away, resting her head on Percy's chest.
"We should probably go," Annabeth mumbled into Percy's chest. "It's getting late."
"Oh, common Wise Girl. So what if you're a little late." Percy replied as he rested his chin on the top of her head.
"But what if my grandmother gets back? You know she would kill me." Annabeth looked up at Percy.
"I'll kept you safe." He said, pressing his forehead to hers. He kissed her then and there. A soft, passionate, slow kiss that made her feel like she was going to melt.
Annabeth seemed to loosen up around Percy. She enjoyed herself, laughed; let her hair down in a sense.
LINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE BREAKERRRRRRRRRR WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
"The stars are beautiful here,' Annabeth said. They were now lying in the damp sand, Annabeth snuggling against Percy's side.
"Yes, that's what stars are SUPPOSED to look like, Wise Girl. Looks like you've spent too much time in the blinding lights of a big city."
Annabeth propped herself up onto her elbows.
"Like you would know anything about big cities Seaweed Brain!"
"For your information, I go to school in Athens! That is like the New York of Greece!" Percy protested, turning to face Annabeth.
"Well it's not like I'm in New York, it's Sans Francisco. It's not as bad."
"Well you still haven't told me about your life in Sans Francisco. I'm not stealing anyone's girlfriend, am I?" he asked, smirking.
"I think it's a little too late to be worrying about that, Seaweed Brain. But no, you have no American competition."
"Good," he replied, pulling her back against his side. "So tell me about your life in America."
"Well… my parents are both professors at university… my brothers are a pain. They're always getting into my things and annoying me, but, what can you do they're still young. Schools pretty much a battle ground. I'm not exactly popular, but then again I'm not a loner either. I have two friends that are closest to me. Piper and Thalia."
"Let me guess," Percy started "Thalia's Greek right?"
"Yes, Thalia's Greek. The other two are as well. Thalia's the one with the Greek name."
"What about school?" Percy asked as he twirled one of her stray blonde curls.
"We share a dorm together, Thalia and I. Piper lives with her boyfriend, Jason. He's Thalia's brother. We're all really close, like siblings."
"And you want to be an Architect, right?" he asked. The sun had set, the wind picking up. Waves crashed against the sandy shore, occasionally reaching up under their feet.
"Ya, it's been my dream since I was a little kid." Annabeth replied. "Tell me about your life here."
"Well you already know that I go to school in Athens. I want to be a Marine Biologist. Or an Oceanographer. Anything that has to do with the ocean really."
"When do you go back to Athens?"
"August 25th. When do you go back to America?" They were both facing each other now. Percy noted the sadness in Annabeth eyes.
Annabeth cursed at herself.
He's just a guy! He's just a guy! HE'S JUST A GUY! She screamed at herself.
Was it possible that she could have grown feeling for someone so quickly? Luke, her last boyfriend had been friends with her for ten years before they started dating! They were practically siblings!
But with Percy it was different. She felt as I she had known him her whole life.
"Some time at the end of August. We haven't gotten a ticket back yet."
They laid there in silence, the waves crashing beneath them, wind howling around them. The beach was deserted. Quiet. Just the way Percy liked it.
"I'm usually at the beach every night, when everyone leaves. I swim, or just sit on the dock. It's the nicest with it isn't packed with insensible tourists who don't know how to appreciate it's natural beauty. They just care if they tan or burn."
"Hey!" Annabeth exclaimed sitting up. "I'm a tourist!"
"Not in my eyes Wise Girl." Percy joined her so that the two were side by side looking out at the stars above the calm waters. "You're a Greek girl stuck in the body of a Californian. It's quite tragic actually."
Percy smirked as he pushed a stray curl out of Annabeth's face.
"That's not true! I only live in California because I have to!" she protested as Percy pulled her into his lap.
"Well then stay here. With me." He whispered, his lips brushing her ear.
"I can't Percy." She replied sadly, burying her face in the crook of his neck.
"Common," Percy said after a moment of silence. "We should get going."
Annabeth stood up and pulling Percy along with her. They walked slowly hand in hand. They felt no need to rush.
Saver every moment. Annabeth thought to herself. She knew this relationship wasn't going to last. They lived in separate countries for gods' sakes!
They calming continued down the road toward Percy's house. People, locals and tourists were escaping homes and hotels for nightly strolls and diner plans. They passed by families and young tourists. They even got a few stares from passing teenagers like themselves. This wasn't a surprise to Annabeth; he curls were 50% wet and 50% covered with sand. Her dress was soaked from her wet bathing suit and she was hand in hand with a well known local Seaweed Brain, who happened to be shirtless.
They eventually arrived at Percy's house, much to his dismay.
"Can't you stay longer?" he whispered in his ear. They were now pressed up against the BMW Annabeth had come in.
"I can't, Youlia'll tell Yaya! And then the chances of me being able to see you this year will be second to none."
Percy groaned before kissing the top of Annabeth's mop of curls.
"I guess I'll just let you go then." He said pressing his forehead to hers. His face inched closer to hers. He stared into her grey eyes, getting lost in a sea of calculations. He wondered if the real Annabeth was some where in those eyes. The Annabeth he had met.
"The anticipation you're creating isn't going to do you any justice, Seaweed Brain"
Percy chuckled, before pressing his lips to hers. It was a gentle kiss, soft, the way you kiss someone on a second or third date. But then the kiss changed. It shifted to being more passionate, both of them hungry for more.
Annabeth's mind fuzzed. She couldn't think straight. A week ago she would have laughed if someone told she would be making out with someone a week after meeting them. But now it felt so right, her and Percy together.
Annabeth pulled away, gasping for air. She blushed when she realized she had been to preoccupied to breathe.
"I have to go," she whispered, laying her head on Percy's chest.
"But I'll see you soon, right?" he asked. "We can go some where special. I'll even settle for a museum if you really want."
Annabeth chuckled.
"You got yourself a deal." She replied before kissing his softly and climbing into the car. He followed behind her before leaning on the door smirking.
"Seaweed Brain, I have to go! I'm going to get into so much trouble!"
He crouched down beside her and kissed her one last time before closing the car door.
He waved as Annabeth pulled out of the drive way and headed back to her grandmother's house.
ALLL MIGHTYYYYYYYYY LINEEEE BREAKKKKKKK
When Annabeth returned Youlia was waiting. Yaya was still gone, which Annabeth thanked the gods for.
"Late." Youlia flatly said as Annabeth entered through the front door.
Annabeth rolled her eyes and sighed.
"Really?"
"You're late. You're lucky your grandmother wasn't home." She said sternly.
"It's not like I was doing anything bad!"
"Look, Annabeth. You're grandmother isn't stupid and neither am I. I know you were with that boy."
"I'm here for two months! Why do the two of you even care what I do! Besides she FORCED me to come, and then neglects me! What does she want me to do?!" Annabeth practically screamed. The anger was building up inside her. She knew that if Youlia told Yaya, she would tell mother. And that would be a whole new level of shit. Especially when mother found out who he was.
"Annabeth, I won't tell your grandmother. It's not my business. I'm simply saying to be careful."
Annabeth sighed. "I'm going to bed."
She marched up to her room and threw herself onto the bed. She groaned in frustration. She wanted a relationship with Percy so much, yet it was almost impossible. He made her want to smile until her jaw clenched up, and blush like no one else could. All in a week.
He made her want to go all girly and call her friends and squeal to them about him, which was something no one else has been able to do, not even Luke.
She sat up on her bed, darkness surrounded her. She hadn't even bothered to turn on the light. She checked her phone for the time.
10:00 exactly. She sighed. She needed to get her mind off of everything.
Maybe I can convince Percy to take me to that museum.
She laid back down and let her eye lids flutter shut. Soon the darkness consumed her, and all thoughts of Yaya, Youlia, the end of August and this stupid vacation disappeared. Only one was left.
Percy.
