Okay, so this is my first real fanfiction. I actually wrote this because I'm going through a major crush right now and I needed a way to get it out. So what I'm saying is, her decisions will be how I do it in my head. Some how writing about it really helps, and sometimes it's really good. I don't know if anyone will like it, but I hope someone does. It took me a long time to actually figure out how to put my favorite characters in a different setting. I tried really hard though. Please read and review. I hope you like it.
I don't own anything. Rick Riordan owns It all. Minus the plot.
I was sitting on a thick branch in a large oak tree reading my favorite book for the thirteenth time when my cell phone buzzed, making me jump so bad that I slipped off the branch. I caught the branch below me but dropped my book into the dirt below.
Heaving an exasperated sigh, I dropped to the ground. I gingerly scooped up my book and brushed the dirt off of it, then whipped out my phone to see what was so important that someone had to text me at seven thirty in the morning.
It was my best friend Thalia Grace. Her text read HEY ANNIE! I'm getting the gang together to go on a float/camping trip. You in? (You better be, or I'm draggin you in a potato sack that Grover uses to carry the fertilizer in) That's Thalia for you, always looking out for me.
Suddenly a thought occurred to me as my stomach fluttered nervously. My fingers flew as I typed a reply, which of the gang are you inviting, because you know Rachel hates the outdoors. I pressed send making sure I didn't give anything away in my text.
I pressed send and within a minute her answer popped up on my phone, Grover, good, Juniper, obviously if Grover is going, Travis and Connor, if I find a single spider in my sleeping bag I'm going to kill them, Katie, someone to keep them under control, Nico, I'm surprised she had the courage to do that (She has a "not so secret" crush on him, we all know he likes her too), and…. Oh gods... No, nonononono. Percy.
Don't get me wrong, Percy Is awesome. He's my best friend, aside from Thalia of course. It's just… I've had this tiny…. Okay, MAJOR crush on him for three years. Not even Thalia, who I tell everything, knows about my crush on him.
I had to go camping though; camping is one of my favorite things to do. Thalia would know something was up if I turned down the offer. I could make up a story, but she knows me too well to be fooled.
I started walking home from the park; I began typing a reply to Thalia when I heard a guy's voice shout, "Hey, Wisegirl." I turned around and met a pair of sea green eyes.
He jogged over and of course, just as I was about to greet him, I stumbled over a rock in the street. He caught me, making me turn a bright shade of pink.
"Don't you know you're supposed to watch where you step, Wisegirl," He teased as he pulled me back up. I tucked my curly blonde hair be hind my ear and shoved him away playfully.
"Look who's talking, Seaweed brain," I countered. I gave him the nickname when we met.
… …LINE BREAK….
Thalia and I had been at the beach when Percy had come running out of the water with a bunch of seaweed on his head. He wasn't looking where he was going, and he plowed right into Thalia and me.
"Hey! Watch... Hey aren't you the new kid," Thalia asked.
Percy looked slightly startled, but recovered quickly. He smiled. His smile looked mischievous, not quite like the Stoll brother's but more like the kind that get in trouble at school for not doing their homework.
"I'm so sorry," he apologized, helping us to or feet, "Yeah. My name is Percy. Sorry, I kinda bumped into this big scary girl over there and she said she was going to kill me. So, naturally I ran."
I looked to where he pointed and saw a very angry Clarisse. I laughed, "Oh, don't worry. She won't hurt you too bad. I mean compared to what she's done before."
Apparently he hadn't heard the sarcasm in my voice because he paled a little bit.
"Ever heard of sarcasm, Seaweed brain," I scoffed.
He smiled, "Seaweed brain?"
I gestured to the mass of seaweed on his head.
"Oh."
…..LINE BREAK…..
"So, are you going," Percy asked me.
I frowned, "Well duh. You know I love camping!"
He laughed, "Good because it wouldn't be as fun without you." My stomach did a little backflip as he said this.
His sea green eyes sparkled when he laughed. I loved that, I also loved the way he didn't care about his hair. It was always unruly and never brushed. His hair was jet black and kinda long, not like rock band long, but like a surfer dude, I guess is a good way to put it.
"So I guess this is where we split," he said, interrupting my daydream. I waved goodbye and jogged up the steps to my house. I could already hear the twins arguing about some stupid TV show.
I can't wait to get the letter from Harvard. I can't wait to get away from this place, with Percy.
What? No, Annabeth. Stop It! You guys are just friends. That's all you'll ever be. I scolded myself, but I couldn't help wonder, could we be more someday?
Do you like it, Do you hate it? Yes, no? should I keep going? I will take constructive criticism, actually It's appreciated. Please, Review. Thanks!
