The life of Annabeth Chase (a Percy Jackson Fanfic)

Just a little love

Drew P.O.V

Everything was pain. I felt as if I was on fire, like a building was sitting on my legs. I tried to push it off, but it seems that doing that hurt even more.

What seemed like an eternity later, I attempted to open my eyes, only to be greeted by a blinding light.

"Look, she's moving!" I hear a sweet voice say close to my ear. Then a rush of footsteps. Heavy breathing ensued after.

"Hey Drew," a different voice cood, Piper's. "How are you?"

I actually managed to croak out a word, "Death."

The other person giggled, I still wasn't sure who it was yet.

"Well if you need us Hazel and I will just be waiting here so holler if you do." Wow holler, that's hilarious.

The second time I opened my eyes it was dark in my room. I was greeted by the sight of Hazel's curly hair. She must have fallen asleep on the bed. I tried to puff some air in her direction to wake her up. All it ended up doing was make her air fly back, which was completely ridiculous. I started quietly laughing, and blowing on her hair some more. I laughed until my throat started hurting, which honestly was only one more puff.

Hazel lifted her head up once I started to cough. She let out a little snort of laughter when she saw me there, coughing and laughing..

"Fight me," I croaked. Trying to shift my body so I was facing her more, I started drooling.

Hazel laughed and got up to wake up Piper.

"Oh my gosh Drew you're awake!" Piper squealed running across the room. She moves in to give me a hug, then she realized that, I was in fact in a hospital bed. "Oh, uh air hug I guess."

I nodded, then tried to lift my arms to mimic hers, but it was to much effort from my weak body and I passed out.

The third time I woke up staring into Hazel's eyes. A sight that I didn't know I needed in my everyday life. They were dark brown in the center and then slowly faded into a light brown.

I flicked my eyes around the room, trying to establish what time of day it was, and found that Piper was nowhere to be seen.

"She went out to get coffee," Hazel answers my unspoken question.

"How long have I been out?" I croaked, hurting my throat with the effort of talking.

"In total, a week." I sucked in a breath, that long! " And since the last time you were reported up, two days."

My brow furrowed, "and you've been here the whole time?" My voice scratched coming out.

Her face flushed and she reaches back to brush the hair from her face. "Uh, I've been here a few days."

I tried to say to her that that was too sweet, but I broke into a coughing fit instead

Her eyes get worried and she rubbed my shoulder. Her other hand brushed the side of my face, stroking my comfortingly, and I leaned into it. Her hand grazed my lips, and our eyes immediately lock together. Bother our eyes were confused, but there was something under that, an emotion that I couldn't name. But I could only hope was, well.. love.

Will and I walk back to dorm apartment after we had finished packing his stuff to go home. Now it was my turn. Well we were heading there until Sierra stopped us. For those of you who don't know Sierra has been stalking me for the past week and keeps asking me out. I think that this is her fourteenth try if I had to guess.
