Percy Jackson: After the giant war (Heroes of Olympus)

Percy and Annabeth AU: Breathe

a/n: this is an AU. it means that it's NOT in the pjo world. there's no greek gods or camp half blood. this is percabeth in the real world. i'm not very pleased with the writing, but i hope u still enjoy this. it's almost 5000 words long. there's also probably too man grammar errors and i apologise for that.

synopsis: They've been best friends since forever. Annabeth Chase can't remember when they didn't know each other.

age5:

Annabeth Chase said goodbye to her father as she was dropped off for her first day of school. Even at the age of five, Annabeth Chase felt independent. She waved goodbye as Fredrick Chase's car drove away from the entrance.

Two people caught her attention. A short boy with black messy hair and striking green eyes. He was stuck closely to his mother. She had long wavy brown hair and the only word that came to Annabeth's mind when she saw the lady was nice.

Apparently, she saw the boy everywhere. He was in her class after all. They didn't talk much, and Annabeth could tell he was pretty shy around everyone.

She found out his name was Percy on the second week of school. Annabeth had been playing near the sandpit with her new best friend, Piper Mclean.

"Can I play with you guys too?" He had asked so politely.

Cooties were common, but Annabeth knew that cooties weren't going to stop her befriending Percy Jackson.

Apparently, Sally Jackson came pretty late that day. And so did Fredrick Chase - well Fredrick always came late.

Annabeth and Percy were the last to leave kindergarten that day. It was a norm for Annabeth, but not for Percy. They talked a bit, and Percy didn't seem worried about getting cooties either. On that day, Annabeth Chase decided that Percy Jackson wasn't really shy anymore.

Fredrick and Sally came around the same time. Sally came in running towards Percy, carrying him and apologising for being so late.

"It's okay mum, Annabeth was here to keep me company," he smiled a toothy grin.

Sally turned towards Annabeth and said hello to her. They conversed a bit, mainly Sally asking Annabeth if she wanted a ride home.

Just then, Fredrick Chase came in. She didn't run and hug her dad like what happened with Percy. Annabeth just stood up and said goodbye to Sally and Percy before leaving with her dad. Fredrick Chase said a few words with Sally Jackson before bringing his daughter back home.

age6

Percy and Annabeth still remain good friends. In fact, Sally Jackson offers to send Annabeth home everyday. Fredrick Chase allows that as his work makes it hard for him to leave just to send Annabeth home to an empty home.

Sally Jackson realises this, and decides that Annabeth is too young to be left at home. So, everyday after school, Annabeth goes to the Jackson's household and they spend the afternoon and most of the evening there.

Sally Jackson also decides to work from home instead of hopping from store to store. This way, she takes care of both Percy and Annabeth.

Percy and Annabeth are often teased in class for spending so much time together. But it doesn't matter to them, they don't think cooties exist anyways.

age 7

Annabeth Chase starts school in a newer and bigger school. It's a good thing she's still friends with Percy. In fact, they go to the same school, Goode High. Annabeth soon finds out that she's actually really good at school. She enjoys every bit of it.
