A/N : Takes place during chapter 13 of book 2. This is just an extended version of the scene taking place when he wakes up from his nightmare

Percy awoke with a scream and soon realized that Annabeth was shaking him. "Percy, you were having a nightmare" she said, a bit urgently but still gentle. She had enough nightmares herself to understand how freaked out one could be waking up. "You need to get up"

"Wh... What is it?" Percy asked, rubbing his eyes to hide the fact that they had grown watery, as well as to wake himself up fully. "What's wrong?" he asked again.

"Land" Annabeth replied with a grim expression. "We're approaching the land of the Sirens. Are you okay?" Percy looked at her in a way that made it clear he had gotten distracted. She bit back a comment of annoyance (after all, she too had ADHD. It'd be pretty hypocritical to get pissy at him for getting distracted)

"Land of the Sirens" she repeated. "Are you okay?" she asked again. Percy took a deep breath. "Yeah... Sorry, just... Bad dream"

"Grover?" Annabeth asked, sitting next to him on the hammock and cautiously putting an arm around him as they got closer to land. Percy shook his head. "Should I be worried about it?" Annabeth asked, concerned.

"I don't know" Percy replied honestly. "We can talk about it later though. It doesn't matter. We need to continue our quest" he got up off the hammock but stopped walking when he felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Percy" the blonde said gently. Percy looked back at her, anxiety visible in his expression. "I'm here for you, okay? I know we haven't gotten along perfectly but you're my friend"

"Yeah" Percy replied with a shaky exhale. "Thanks, Annabeth"
