"Hi. My name is Percy Jackson, I'm 18 and the son of Poseidon.
I have spent most of my life knowing Annabeth Chase, an extremely intimidating daughter of Athena, that I am lucky to know.
So here's the Anatomy of her:
A for Annabeth -
She is, for a fact, her: a one of a kind human being that is effortless in everything that she does.
B for Broken -
She's broken, oh so broken, but she wears it like a pair of wings. we both are, in a way and I think that it's one of the main reasons she puts up with me. We're that broken that we just fix each other with bits of ourselves, only to give it back, to keep the other standing.
C for Centre -
She's so damn cold, like twenty below. Her tough exterior makes her seem that way, I guess. She doesn't let anyone in, as solitary as an oyster. I've seen through it, though: when she snuggles up to me, pressing her head into my chest as I run my hands through her curls, tears trickling down her face. She's, in reality, just a lost girl, looking for a place to call her home. In her centre, she just wants to feel like she is just that, wanted.
D for Dagger -
That's her main weapon and believe me when I tell you that she could beat you with that thing any day. It's amazing to watch her skillfully handle it, even when you're sparring and all of a sudden it's at your throat, heh. I need to remind myself to stop getting distracted because of that.
E for Ease -
Ease, that's how she carries herself. It's scary, really. She's a blonde ninja: you're sat at the table, she's no where in sight and everything is silent. Then she covers your eyes and complains when you reflexively smack her arms away.
F for Forever -
It feels so long ago when I met her, when she nursed me to heath when I first arrived at Camp Half-Blood. Forever is a long time, yet I don't think I'd mind spending it by her side. No, scratch that, I know I wouldn't mind spending it with her.
G for Grounded -
This could be interpreted in two ways and I mean she keeps me grounded- that still doesn't explain. What I mean is: she keeps my mind from drifting off, she keeps me here on Earth, and she makes it seem like things aren't as bad as they really are. For me, the world revolves around her and only her, in some cases, I could say that she is my world but, technically, Earth is my world so...
H for Harmless -
Oh, yeah, yeah. She's harmless....
...
Said no one ever.
I for Impregnable
Don't be fooled like I was. This word does not mean to be unable to be pregnant, it means 'to be unable to be defeated or overcome' and that is just her, she can't be defeated and she never will be. Annabeth Chase will always be remembered.
J for Jackson -
I guess, in a way, I am part of her, because I've known her since we were twelve. This isn't about me, though, more about her.
K for Knowledgeable -
I honestly don't believe that I need to explain this one because - she's a daughter of Athena for the love of Hades. She has this look of concentration that she gets when she's working, when her eyebrows draw together and her eyes stay fixed on her work. She doesn't care about how she looks and I think that's one of the things that draws me to her the most. She's effortlessly beautiful and she doesn't even realise it.
