Percy Jackson and Annabeth 33

Percy Jackson and Annabeth 33

        It was three days later, on the morning of the dance. Ever since I came back to camp Annabeth stood by me and followed me everywhere. I mean she even tried sitting next to me at lunch three times, and each time Chiron would gallop up, clear his throat, and gave Annabeth a sympathetic look, then Annabeth would groan and go back to her table. I was starting to think something was fishy around here, besides me. You know that one guy Sam Zimmerman, you wouldn't expect him to be a son of Ares by watching him work a sword...or a spear or a shield or anything other than a hunting knife. It was six inches long, the blade, and he also carried a gun, at first I thought it was crazy because monsters aren't effected by that until I found out he used bronze bullets, I was kind of amazed it was cool. And not just that but he carried a sling blade, one of things that farmers use, a bronze sling blade, bronze bullets, and bronze hunting knife, I thought it was cool but his half brothers and sisters didn't. Anyway this guy was a warrior when he had to, but won't do it out of no where. He's a nice guy and wouldn't hurt a fly unless he had to. And Annabeth always woke me up every morning at six a.m. I don't even know how she gets in, I lock the door. Grover has his date for the dance, Juniper. Thalia doesn't have to go. Oh and Selena is going with Beckendorf. I thought she'd go with but Travis Stoll, but I don't know nothing aout this type of stuff. I don't know about Jason, but everybody else I knew had a date for the dance...well except Annabeth. I've tried looking for a date I've went to the Aphrodite cabin five times already even Annabeth's tried helping me, but nothing, zilch, nadda.

       I woke up to see two stormy gray eyes staring at me  whispering my name, and I smiled.
"Morning wise girl," I said soothingly. She smiled at her nickname and sat at down on my bunk next to me.
"Hey Percy, mind if i use your shower," She asked me. I didn't notice much but behind her she had a whole bunch of stuff for a shower, towel, tooth paste, clothes, comb, and a curling iron. "Malcom's taking too long."
I shrugged it off and said yes, she went into the bathroom and started using it. I took one last night before I went to bed so I was good, just had to put on deodorant. Fifteen minutes later I heard the water turn off and then a blow dry go on and the off. After another fifteen minutes Annabeth walked out with an orange camp half blood hill T-shirt on and something that looked like really really short shorts. She looked awsome. She came and sat back down on my bunk, and laid down on the bunk next to me I scoot over to give her some extra room.
"Todays the day," Annabeth said calmly staring up at the top bunk.
"Yep," I said plainly.
"Find a date yet," She asked.
"Nope," I said.
I saw her smile widely.
"Are you laughing at me," I questioned.
Immediately her smile faded.
"No I'm not," Annabeth said honestly.
"Let me guess, you found a date didn't you," I asked her.
"No," After I heard her say that I was shocked.
"Oh," Nice one Percy, now she's going to be mad at you the whole day. "Sorry Annabeth I didn't mean-" I was cut off by her voice.
"It's okay," She said her smile coming back.
"I just wish I could find a date so I don't get in trouble," I said trying to hide my discomfort.
"You'll find a date I'm sure Percy," the way she said that gave me alot of reasurance.
Her hand brushed the back of mine which I tried not to blush at, and she grabbed my hand and held onto it, I squeezed her hand to and I'm pretty sure we both blushed. We layed there another thirty minutes talking about random stuff, mostly what she liked, but I didn't care I was just admiring her. The breakfast horn was blown so we had to get to the mess hall now. I got up and pulled Annabeth up with me she was a million miles away in some trance, she just stared at me with a smile. I waved my hab=nd in front of her face.
"Annabeth, hey we gotta eat," she came back to reality and blushed, but then got ahead of me in front of the door.
"You coming," She asked, so I followed.
We made it out of the cabin and passed all of them walking to the mess hall. Annabeth would occasionally grab my hand and swing it around as we walk but most of the time she'd smile and look at me. We made it inside and when we did most of the heads in there turned towards both of us. I was getting creeped out so I grabbed my food and went to sit down at my table. Annabeth went to sit down next to me but I stopped her.
"Are you really going to make Chiron come over here again," I asked.
She looked to Chiron as if thinking it through.
"I guess not," She said sadly and went to walk to her table. "See you later."
"See ya," I said and ate my food.
