II. Bobby Pins

II. Bobby Pins

Annabeth entered her cabin to find her boyfriend Percy, sitting on her bunk bed. She raises an eyebrow, leaning against the wall, "Enjoying yourself?"

Percy looks up, caught off guard, "Hm? What? Oh, uhhh." He glances down at the bobby pin he was fiddling with, "Yes?"

Annabeth moves to sit next to him and tilts her head, "What are you doing anyway?" Her gaze falls on the bobby pin, and she knits her eyebrows confused, "And why are you here?"

Percy shrugs, going back to playing with the bobby pin, before sighing exasperated, "This isn't working!" He pouts, and turns to her, answering her question, "Well just an hour ago, I passed two campers while going to my cabin..."

Annabeth nods at him, gesturing for him to go on, "And...?"

"So that son of Hecate, Michael? He was talking to a newbie, and the newbie was asking him," Percy pauses and scrunches his nose up, "Who that 'hot daughter of Athena with the Yankees baseball cap' was."

Annabeth raises an eyebrow again, waiting for the very Percy-like action he was going to tell her about next, "Oh?"

Percy nods, going back to the bobby pin, looking frustrated, "Yeah, and Michael said something on the lines of, 'Dude! That's Annabeth, Percy Jackson's girlfriend! He could murder you with a bobby pin!' So here I am now, trying to figure out how I can kill someone with a bobby pin. And since I don't have one, I came to your cabin. I mean, I wouldn't want to disappoint if they found out I couldn't."

Annabeth facepalms internally, about to speak when Percy glances up and asks, "So? Do you think I could? I mean, I guess if I sharpened it, or got this rounded end off, I could scratch them or stab them... That would hurt, right? But probably not murder..." He trails off, looking at the hair accessory interested.

Annabeth rolls her eyes and slaps him gently upside the head. Percy ducks and rubs his head, "Ow! What was that for!?"

Annabeth sighs and rolls her eyes again, "Seaweed Brain."

It was another Percabeth one shot, but I promise I'll do another ship next time! Any requests?

By the way, I'm going to be posting on Ella's account now. Since she's gone inactive. So don't be mad since she's not stealing it from me or anything.
