(A/N: I want to apologize in advance for this being so short. I had this idea a long time ago and I kinda lost interest, but I'm writing it anyway. It's going to be very confusing. Sorry.)

 Percy blushes as he puts his arm around Annabeth's waist.

This is so awkward to dance with your crush on a demigod quest...

Maybe if I rest my head on his chest I can hear his giving heart. WAIT! Why am I thinking about this right now?! We are supposed to be finding a demigod.

Just a little longer.

Percy nuzzles his face in the crook of Annabeth's neck in her silk, blonde curls. The song A Thousand Years by Christina Perri is playing. The song calms both of them and makes them think about all the good times they could have with their skinny love.

His sea green eyes contrast with that raven black hair and his tanned skin. I'm 13, he's 13. We're only 13. Why am I thinking about this? Because he is gorgeous.

Her hair smells like book parchment and strawberries. Just thinking about her stormy grey eyes that can read me like the books she spends so much time on gives me shivers.

He shivered. Is he cold? Should I step away? Was it me that caused him to shiver? I'll just hold on tighter. Warm him up a bit... Gosh, I'm sounding like an Aphrodite girl, no offence Aphrodite.

Gods. Why did I have to shiver? She tensed, but relaxed. Does this mean she likes me? Nah. She is just dancing with me because we have to blend in for the quest. Annabeth Chase, always ahead on step.

Does he know that i'm dancing with him because I want to? Having to blend in with the crowd was just an excuse. I honestly really like the feel of his body. Where did that thought come from?

They sway around in circles as the last few lines of the song play out.

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Do I love Percy Jackson?

Do I love Annabeth Chase?

I can't. I'm so young. Then again, I could be dead in a few hours. But still. I'm young and have a whole life ahead of me to decide my feelings toward the famous Son of Poseidon.

I would fall into Tartarus for her. I will protect her with my life, but does that mean I love her as more than a friend or as a sister. She technically is my cousin... My dad is her mom's uncle... Ugh. Doesn't matter. I'll figure out my feelings at a later time. The song ended.

They separate as the last note transitions into the next song. They both blush lightly and turn to look for Thalia and Grover.
