Percy's POV
We walked to the dining hall and went to our tables.
"See you after training"Annabeth said giving me a kiss on the cheek.
I walked over to the Posidon table and started to eat my blue pancakes.After I finished eating,I went to sword training.I couldn't exactly concetrate properly.Everytime I look to my right,I saw Annabeth,looking as beautiful as ever,swing her bronze dagger at Clarisse.My attention was placed somewhere else when my sword got knocked from my grasp.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was now 9:00 at night and Annabeth and I were laying down.I was playing with her hair with one hand while she was playing with the other.
"Percy?"
"Yea?"
"Why do we have nightmares all the time?"
"I think it's the gods way of toying with us."
She let go of my hand and leaned up to rest on her elbows.
"That's just not fair.Normal kids don't have to get them."
I got up and picked up Annabeth.I layed back down with her in my lap.
"I don't know" I whispered in her ear "I wish I could tell you."

Annabeth's POV
Soon after out talk,Percy fell asleep.I sat there,in his lap,thinking.Are the gods the one sending these nightmares?If they are,then why are doing this?Did we make them mad without knowing it?I looked over at Percy.He started shaking violently.Really?Another nightmare?
I climbed out of his lap and put my hands on his face,cupping his cheeks.
"Percy?" "Percy?" "Come on!Wake up!"
His eyes flashed open.Their usual sea-green were now a dense goldish color.
"Percy?!"I exclaimed.I've never seen this happen before.
He calmed down and his eyes returned to their normal color.
"Annabeth?"He looked worried,scared.
"Right here.I'm right here.It's okay."
He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me into his arms.I could feel him shaking.What could've scared him this bad?
"Do you wanna talk about it?"He shook his head.
"Go to sleep"He said,the fear in his voice worrying me."I'll be fine"
I would've argued with him,but I let sleep take over.
"Goodnight"
