Percy Jackson One-Shots

Percy

I was squished into the corner of the spare bed in the Poseidon cabin watching my girlfriend sleep.

It was around 10 when I had last checked the clock, but I hadn't checked in ages. I'm just hoping that Annabeth will get enough sleep before we head down to the pavilion for dinner and campfire.

She was sleeping square in the middle of the bed, snoring lightly, with her hair spread around her face. Although it was quite a cold day she had opted to wearing a simple, standard issue orange CHB tank top the whole day, even during training.

I wonder if she even wore a singlet underneath, she wouldn't want to catch a cold.

I slowly reach my hand out to pull down the front of her shirt to check, when a hand grabs mine.

Annabeth had one eye open and is glaring at me like I has stolen her last blue cookie.
"What do you think you're doing mister?"

"Uhh, I was checking to see if you were wearing a singlet."

Annabeth glare hardens even further.
"Why..." Her voice is strangely quiet and I try my best not to pee my pants.

Then I get it. My cheeks turn the colour of Rachel's hair and I manage to stutter out a sentence.

"Because y-you know it really c-cold so i though is you weren't wearing anything inside I w-would, y-you know..."

Annabeth raises a single eyebrow and gives me a pointed look.
"What would you do Percy?"
She shifts her body upwards and leans her back on the headrest of the bed, arms crossed.

If possible, my cheeks flare up even more as I finish my previous sentence. I gulp.
"You know... given you a blanket or something."

She doesn't say anything back, just stares at me, no emotion on her face.

I look down and scold myself.
Agrhhh! What was I thinking! She'll probably hate me now and then tell me I'm not allowed to go and sleep next to her in the Athena cabin. And then she'll ban me from eating blue cookies and then she won't kiss me and then after than she'll break up with me. Stupid Percy.

Then I notice something. Annabeth still hasn't said anything.

I look up at her slowly and she cracks up.

She begins to laugh so loudly that I'm pretty sure the cabin next door heard us.

"Y-you look like a confused puppy!" she spits out, then continues her laughing fit on the bed, before rolling off and continuing to laugh on the floor.

I pout and huff. "Persassy is not a puppy, he is a full fledged man."
I snap my fingers in a Trident formation, just for good measure.

That sets her off again and continues to laugh on my carpet.

I roll my eyes and bend over the edge of the bed to meet her eyes.
"Just out of curiosity, are you going to be done anytime soon?"

Annabeth continues to laugh for a little while longer, before deciding that it was time to calm down.

"Hey did you hear about the prank that the Stoll brothers pulled on the Aphrodite cabin?"

We chat for a little longer about the occurrences at camp until we hear the bell for dinner ring in the distance.

"Do you want to go now or later?"  Annabeth questions.

Typical Annabeth, straight to the dam point.
"Lets go now, we missed lunch so I'm starving. Plus, I don't think I can hold this up for any longer."

Annabeth shakes her head and helps me off the bed.
I dust my pants and begin to sprint right out of the open door of the Poseidon cabin calling over my shoulder.
"Race you to the pavilion!"

I hear Annabeth sigh and run after me, yelling at me to slow down.

I could of sworn she rolled her eyes as well.
