~Percy~
I run along the beach, I've been working out more lately. I want to be in perfect shape for Annabeth on our wedding. So I run to get my cardio up, then go to the camp gym. Then I lift weights, do ab workouts, and push-ups. I already am pretty fit, not trying to brag...but I have a six pack. But I'm trying for an eight pack.

But sadly I think I'm getting Annabeth insecure. I see her hold her shirt up and frown at her stomach, even though it's flat. And she looks at her thighs when she sits, even though they are not wide. She even frowns at her chest! I mean, I think she's perfect...everywhere. I wish she would just feel good about her self.
It hurts me to know that she's hurting. I start running faster to get my mind off these thoughts. My hair is sticking to my forehead, it is so freaking annoying. Maybe I should just shave it off. I flip it out of my face the best I can, but then sweat just gets in my eyes. Ugh.

One month until I graduate! And then Annabeth and I are gonna go to college, but that will be like a year after the wedding and stuff. Like, can you imagine Annabeth's last name being Jackson? Whoa.

And maybe...even kids. That would be rad. I'm at the gym now, and it's empty, kids here don't like to work out because they think they get enough exercise training, they do but they aren't fully fit. Like, not trying to be mean but, we have some campers here that are...chubby bunnies.

-Three Hours Later-
It's time for dinner, and thank the gods. Because I'm starved, Annabeth says I'm always hungry. I bet she is too, she just doesn't say so. I wait in line to give our offerings to the gods, I bounce on the balls of my feet, because I'm impatient. Just a little.
I finally get up to the fire place, I dump some of my mashed potatoes in. 'Hey dad, I want to say thanks for Annabeth, and her being the amazing fiancé she is. But can I ask one thing? I want her to be happy again. Thanks, talk to ya later' I murmur with my eyes closed.

I sit down at my empty table, I have started to like it now. It gives me time to think. Even though in hear is rowdy, I'm still alone and I get time to myself. For dinner I have Steak, mashed potatoes with gravy, and a baja blast freeze from Taco Bell. Those things are literally my life, and I make them blue!!
I love my life.

~Annabeth~
I lay on Percy's king sized bed reading "The Four Loves" by C.S. Lewis. It's really interesting. I've already read a one hundred pages, out of 160 pages. It's such a small book, I'm used to read seven hundred or eight hundred page books in about two days. I started this book an hour ago, it's not my favorite book. But when I start something I have to finish. I skipped dinner for the book too, Percy said he'll bring me some food though. He's been working out so hard the past month. He's almost gained his eight pack. All I can say is sex-y.

I can just hear the gasps now.. 'Annabeth! Did you just say sexy?' Trust me, I've said way worse. Percy walks in with splats of leftover steak and potatoes, he ordered double for me. People just thought he was extra hungry, probably. Or they knew I wasn't there, whatever, I don't care. All I know right now is that I'm hungry and I need food. Did I mention I didn't eat lunch either? But that was on purpose...for reasons...

I dig in and Percy looks at my book. He makes a disgusted face "It's really good" I try to say, but my voice is muffled by potatoes. He starts laughing uncontrollably, he's laughing so hard he starts crying and gets hiccups. He falls off the bed and laughs even harder. I get off my chair and kneel next to him and wait for him to stop laughing. It takes a while but he does. But when he looks at my face he starts laughing again "My tummy!! It hurts, so does my cheeks!" He yells then hiccups.

He finally stops. He wipes his eyes and keeps hiccuping like crazy, over and over again. He kisses me fast "I love you, babe. But I'm really tired. And I know it's only seven but I'm gonna go to bed, okay?" He tells me. I nod and he goes and gets in his onzie. I start to head out the door when he says "Annabeth? Can you sleep in my cabin tonight?" He asks with pouty lips. I sigh "Yeah" he jumps up and down and claps his hands. "Yay! I'll give you on of my onzies to sleep in!" He runs to his dresser and pulls out a giraffe for me. I roll my eyes and go to the bathroom to change.

I come out, so now Percy and I are a Giraffe and Elephant couple. Wow. We crawl into bed and Percy props himself on his elbows, he leans over and kisses me softly, and slow. I put my hand on his neck and we kiss for awhile. But then I pull away "Percy...patience" he sighs and rolls back to his side of the bed. "I love you." He smiles. "I love you too" I'm not gonna go to sleep for a while so I grab my book and continue to read.
