Chapter Fourteen

A Bit of Snooping

Annabeth POV

The Royal Palm was silent when I stepped inside. Only a dim light shone out underneath the bathroom's one door. Feeling wet and sticky, I tapped on the wood. "Percy? Could you hurry—"

The door flew open, and a boxer-clad Percy stood and glared at me before shoving past me into the bedroom.

Okay then. I shut the door behind me and wondered what the hell his problem was. The bonfire had been fun, I guess. And he'd seemed civil enough when we'd talked a few hours ago. I'd really thought we were on our way to not to being archenemies, but…the look he'd given me just then.

Guess not, I thought bitterly, pulling off my wet things and disappearing into a cloud of steam from the shower.


I stepped out, in pajamas fifteen minutes later. Percy was facing the wall, away from me as I got into bed. His set shoulders showed tension.

"Um, so did you like the bonfire?" I tried, shifting my head on the pillow.

A long, tense silence. "I don't want to talk about it, Annabeth." He said my name like it burned his mouth.

"But last night—" You were kind to me, I wanted to say. What happened?

"There was no last night." He sounded like he was speaking through gritted teeth.

At that I sat up, unable to bear it no longer. "No last night? What, did we just miraculously pass from afternoon to morning with no time spent? Weird, that no one else has commented on the phenomenon—"

He was sitting up too, green eyes flashing. "Drop it, Annabeth. I mean it. Don't test me." He lay back down, as far as he could from me like I was a contagious disease.

So, the only reasonable thing to do was pick up a box from the wall and drop it on him.

"What was that for?" he said, holding a hand to his face, annoyed.

"You said to drop it." I put my head on the pillow and turned away, fighting the smile curling on my lips.


Percy POV

The next day I was woken by a bunch of beeping noises coming from somewhere in the cabin. I groaned and got up, canvassing the place in search of the noise.

The source was sitting in the pocket of some jeans; Annabeth's. I reached inside and pulled out a pink-cased iPhone, which was lighting up and beeping and making the most retarded sound ever: an owl hooting, over and over. I glanced at the screen and saw that she had several texts from a contact named LUKE.

As in the same Luke who'd kissed her last night? I slid the bar to open the home screen and pulled up MESSAGES. The phone was still hooting, like it was trying to warn its owner that I was snooping. But Annabeth stayed asleep, her hand pillowed on her cheek.

"Dammit." I hastily turned the text alerts off and clicked FIVE NEW MESSAGES.

Unfortunately, I didn't get to read more than that because there was a waking-up noise from the direction of the bed, and a white sheet hill began to move. I quickly hit the home button and shoved it back into her pocket before pretending like I was absorbed in pulling on my shorts.

"Something was hooting," Annabeth said, yawning. She looked so cute when she yawned. Meanwhile I was reeling. He loved her? He barely knew her!

She got up and stretched, then brushed past me and grabbed her phone. I held my breath and peered over her shoulder, hoping that my fingerprints didn't show up there or something.

They didn't. Annabeth glanced back and shot me a look, then moved her phone to the bed and read through her texts. I looked away. Then she got up and began pulling out clothes.

"Where're you going?" I knew my voice came out frosty.

She blinked in surprise. "Do you have to know?"

"Whatever." I pulled a worn-in tee over my head.

"Well…" Annabeth looked like she was going to say something to me, but she just twisted her bangles and walked out.


Annabeth POV

Something shook me awake gently. I opened my eyes to see a shirtless Percy staring intently at me.

"What?" I mumbled, annoyed.

He smiled. "You're so cute when you're sleepy."

Now I was really awake. "Excuse me?"

"What, I can't compliment my girlfriend?" His mouth crooked up at the sides, an amused smirk forming on his face.

I was acutely aware that underneath the covers I couldn't feel any solid clothes. My pulse beat a tango in my chest. "Girlfriend? Percy, we are not—"

"Happy one year anniversary, babe," he said, wrapping his arms around me and bringing his lips to mine. Somewhere in the distance, an owl was hooting.

Wait, what? I tried to concentrate, but Percy blocked my vision. That owl was getting really annoying, though. It kept making noise, screeching and squawking like it had something in its throat.

I pulled away from Percy and he dissolved, to be replaced by the room in Palm Cove. The real Percy was standing by the dresser, buttoning his shorts.

A dream. It was a dream. But the owl noises sounded so realistic…

"Something was hooting," I said, and realized Rachel had set a maniacally hooting owl as my text tone two sleepovers ago. I'd kept it, even though it had been a joke, for reasons I didn't even know. I grabbed the phone and scrolled through my texts.

The last one, time stamped 7:49am, made me grin.


L: i know this makes things awkward between us but i think im in love with your manager, Silena.
