Annabeth
I tapped my fingers against the wood and peeked around the corner, while trying to remain unseen. I bit my lip to avoid loud breathing, but there's nothing I can do for my heartbeat. I poked my head out more from the doorway. Coast is clear. I walked outside and wiped my somewhat sweaty hands on my jeans. I quietly sprinted across the grass and walked behind another cabin. More flashlights scanned the ground where I just was and found nothing. I released my breathe and ran my hand through my blonde hair. I waited, silently, for the flashlights to disappear. When the light vanished, I crept out from the shadows and ran a few more feet in front of the rough gray cabin. I stepped onto the dark porch and winced as the board squeaked. I quickly rolled into a corner of the porch and hid my body as a trail of light flashed over to spot on the porch. When the light moved onto the Ares cabin, I quietly crept out of my hiding spot and laid my hand lightly on the door. Then, something occurred to me. How am I supposed to knock on the door with the Harpies and their extra sensory hearing? I silently cursed under my breathe and turned my back to the door. Suddenly, a strong force clamped onto my shoulders and dragged me backwards. It clamped it's other hand over my mouth. As I was pulled inside, I watched the Harpies's lights all turn to the porch.
As soon as I was inside, they removed their hand from my mouth and I gasped for air. "Percy!" I said while smiling. Percy walked over to his bedside lamp and turned it on. A dim, fire-like, glow illuminated from the small lamp. He sat down on his bunk and hunched over in a lazy position. I walked over to the bunk next to his and sat down.
"What? I didn't get caught." He said earnestly. I rolled my eyes and he smiled, his sea green eyes glittered in the dark room.
"Still. That was risky." I turned my head towards the closed door. "How did you even know I was there?"
"I heard the floorboards creak." I nodded. "There's a reason why I never got those things fixed."
"Really? I thought it was laziness? Or perhaps stupidity?" I asked jokingly.
"Ha ha. Very funny." He said sarcastically. I looked down at my black converse's and saw the words "Friends Forever" written on the white toe part. Percy had written that last summer, and I've never had the heart to wash it off. He even wrote our initials under it. Blonde hairs fell in my eyes and I quickly blew them away.
"So...Percy. I'd just like to know_" I started. What am I supposed to say? Oh Percy! I just want to know if you'll go out with me! Even if you do have_
"Sorry Annabeth! Gotta take this." He pulled the phone out of his pocket, pressed the button, and held it to his ear. A wide smile grew across his face, and I started clicking my heels together as I looked at the words on my shoes.
"Hey babe!" Percy said happily. That's right. Me and Percy finally get some time together, and his stupid girlfriend calls. I checked the clock next to his bed. Who calls their boyfriend at 1 o'clock in the morning? I thought to myself. And what kind of boyfriend talks to them at 1 o'clock in the freaking morning? I groaned and place my head in my palm. This is going to take a while.
"No what's up?" Percy said. I heard her sweet voice talk and I felt a snarl try to rip through my teeth.
"Really?" He asked enthusiastically.
"You know, I thought we weren't supposed to use cell phones." I started at Percy while I pursed my lips.
"Shh Annabeth!" He said while he covered the phone. "We can use phones here. It's not like a monsters going to smash through the borders just cause I received a call." I opened my mouth to argue, but he quickly started to talk to his girlfriend again. I rolled my eyes, and fell backwards unto the bed. I closed my eyelids and tried to tune out Percy's conversation...
"Annabeth?" I opened my eyes and looked at Percy standing over me.
"Wha?" I looked around the room a bit.
"You fell asleep while I was on the phone. Just hung up." I sat up slowly and looked at the clock.
"3 hours? You talked for 3 hours?" I asked. My voice found it difficult to stay calm.
"Yeah why?" I took in a deep breathe of air. I looked at the clock again, just to make sure I wasn't seeing things.
"You..." I started. Am I going to really yell at him like a jealous idiot? I bit my lip and tried to release some of the anger from my head. "You know what? Never mind. Forget it." I stood up and dusted my maroon Cami and straightened my black jacket.
"But_"
"I should get back to my cabin, before they see that I'm missing." I said quickly as I headed for the door.
"I feel like I barely got to talk to you though."He came up behind me with his arm outstretched. His messy black hair and green eyes glowed from the light.
"Now whose fault is that?" I asked him. His stunned face stared at me. I turned my back, and exited the cabin. I ran across the area between our cabins, not even stopping to check for Harpies. I walked onto the porch to the Athena cabin, and looked back at the Poseidon cabin. Percy stood in the doorway, looking a little sad. I sighed and quietly walked inside.
Now, before anyone even asks/says anything, this is just a filler chapter. The other chapters will be longer. Please review and all that good stuff. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks for reading everyone! Bye!
