his eyes are turquoise.

that is the first colour she sees, when they flicker open to meet hers for the first time.

literally, her first colour.

it's so new to her that she doesn't quite know how to name it.

but she knows that it'll quickly become her favourite colour.

the boy has a ridiculous expression on his face, because obviously, he's seeing a whole new world like her. he is beautiful in a way that most boys aren't, and she's sure he'll be a heartbreaker when he grows older.

for once, annabeth chase is lost for words and all she can say is: you drool when you sleep.

she is silver and gold. and everything in between

percy doesn't quite notice the subtle transition from grayscale to colour because silver isn't that far from gray.

but then she shifts and all he can see is gold.

his heart beats faster and he groans because he can't be falling for her already!

annabeth, she says is her name, leans over to the table to more of the delicious thing he's been surviving on for days (feels like a buttery popcorn cube and percy really doesn't know how that exists.) and the sheet of gold covers her silver eyes and percy has to catch his breath because he doesn't think he's seen anything so beautiful before.

i drool when i sleep?

yep. he's a goner.

so this is not exactly a proper fic but i'm writing it to get some inspiration for colour of my blood which is also a (different) soulmate!au. not a masterpiece, but hey, it helped get rid of writer's block.

side note: wow. three fics in one day. better enjoy it while it lasts guys. lol.
