Percy Jackson One Shots

Percy Jackson

So this is one of those cliché one of them picks up the other one after school and everyone finds out that s/he is real...so yeah. Enjoy!

LAST DAY OF SCHOOL. Oh my gods it's finally here. Best part, Annabeth is driving up from San Fransisco, picking me up and school and we're driving over to camp together. Summer, camp, and Annabeth mixed into one day. How could life get any better? Best day ever!

I slam my locker closed and head to home room, already imagining Annabeth whipping up in her car. Nothing flashy, in fact it's a Mazda. But hey, if Annabeth's driving it, it could be a rusted banged up truck for all I care.

Finally in home room I collapse in my seat and stare at the chalkboard, imagining my Wise Girl's princess curls and sarcastic smile. I must really be out of it, because all the sudden I'm in a rambunctious cafeteria, everyone screaming at the top of their lungs and throwing food at the rest of their clique. I shack my head forcefully to dislodge Annabeth...her eyes. Oh Hades her eyes. They're gorgeous. Big and round. Piercing grey points that only seem to ever soften for me...

Percy! Focus!

I shake my head again and walk through the throng to reach the cafeteria line. A couple minutes later I sit down in my regular seat and start to eat. I stare at the wall and imagine Annabeth—

"Lover boy? Yoo hoo? You there?" A hand waves across my face. "Yo, Percy!"

I blink and look up at who has now shattered my dream, ready to strangle him. But it's only Dean, so I contain my fists.

"Hey Dean," I reply.

"Finally dude. I thought I was going to have to stay there all day." He takes an enormous bite from his grilled cheese and starts talking again. His mouth opens widely so I can see all the little dots of bread and cheese on his tongue. So that's why Annabeth doesn't like me talking with my mouth full...

"Percy Jackson! I swear! Your not even listening any more!"

My face reveals my sheepishness.

Dean rolls his eyes. "All I want to know is why you look so out of it today."

I blink rapidly again, because I'm still fixated on his disgusting chewing mouth. "Oh...oh! Annabeth. My girlfriend. She's picking me up today. It's why I'm looking out windows a lot."

To my surprise Dean snorts. What did I say? Did it all make sense? Nothing weird slipped out, right? I mentally go through what I said and it does all partially make sense, and I didn't say anything out of the ordinary.

So why is it so funny?

"How was that funny?" I ask Dean.

He stops mid-snort and looks at me. "You mean you were serious, man?"

"Well of course. Why would I not be?"

He raises his eyebrows in a 'well duh' sort of way. "Hello. Percy Jackson. Rejector of the opposite gender. Dude, I was half convinced you were gay! And I'm your best friend. You'd think I would know something like that."

Have I really never mentioned Annabeth? I take a moment to think. I guess I never did. It's just that everywhere else I go, everyone always knows that it's me and Annabeth forever. I never really thought about whether or not the people at school knew. I just assumed...

"I've never told you about Annabeth?" I confirm.

"Never."

"Okay then. Crash course on the love of my life. She beautiful. She has these absolutely gorgeous princess curls. She's blond but she's the smartest person ever...what else? Oh her eyes. They're grey. Not like an icky Sky after storm grey, but more like...well..."

"Dude I get it. She's gorgeous. Continue."

"Well like I said before she's really really really smart. Ask her about any partially famous building and she'll be able to talk for hours about it. Doesn't even matter if it's in the US or not. She wants to be an architect when she's older.

"She's really pretty..."

"Perce, I know. Anything else?'

"She's extremely strong. Like can-beat-me-up-abnormally-fast strong. Even though I always beat her in fencing...

"And she's really pretty..."

Dean's hand covers my mouth. "Dude, I know she's pretty. She sounds like a goddess. She can totally not exist."

I look at him dumbfounded. "But she's coming to pick me up after school!" I protest.

Dean gets up. "Sure she is Perce. Sure she is." He starts to walk out of the cafeteria which I now realize is empty. "Oh and by the way, when you were describing how pretty she was, the bell rang." He then marches out the door.

I blink and scramble from the table.

The following periods are a blur until last period where people childly count down the seconds remaining till summer. Don't Annabeth, but of course I joined in.

"5...4..." Briiiiinng.

I sprint out the door. Dean right on my heels. I muscle the ancient front doors open a plunk myself against a tree to wait for my wise girl. She shouldn't be too long. Someone falls next to me. Dean.

"Percy, how long are you going to fool yourself. Annabel...Annie...Anna...I give up. You "girlfriend,"" he does air quotes over the word, "doesn't exist. Fess up to yourself. Go and date someone real. Any girl at this school would love to call you her boyfriend. Go now. Ask someone out. Stop fooling around dude. Go and actually be in relationship."

Now I'm pissed. Who is he to dictate what I do? Who is he to decide Annabeth is not real? She is real.

"First off Dean, her name is Annabeth. Next, for the last time she's REAL! Last but not least, I've known her since we were twelve and we've been dating for almost two years now. That's a real relationship," I state.

"Really? Then where is she?"

"Right here dumbass," says a voice behind him.

I look up. Behind Dean is a gorgeous blond with her arms crossed and feet apart.

I rush past a dumbfounded Dean and pick her up and swing her around. "Wise Girl!" I shout.

"Seaweed Brain!" She chuckles and I kiss her.

And I suck at writing kisses so...

When we break apart, Annabeth peers over my shoulder at Dean. I turn to follow her gaze.

"Why do they never believe us?" Asks Annabeth, turning to look at me again.

I kiss her on the forehead. "I don't know. You're the wise one."

AND THEY FLEW ON BLACKJACK INTO THE SUNSET.

Done.

Kay imma go and be productivy now.

Probably not.
