Percabeth ~ Confess my love ...to my best friend?

The Mall

Percy's POV:

As me and Annabeth walked to the mall, she started talking about architecture, but I was too distracted to listen. I was looking at her smile, her honey blonde hair that smelled like lemon and strawberries. Then I just remembered that I needed to tell her how I feel, just hopefully I'll tell her soon so the weight on my shoulders will be gone. I was too busy staring at her that I walked straight into a lamp post and saw a few citizen snickering and laughing at me. I didn't really mind though, I mean, I've saved the world, what could just a little embarrassment to do me? Ugh My ADHD is going onto me --- again. Finally, we are at the mall, I really need some more blue candies, let's see if they even have blue chocolate!

I saw Annabeth smirk when I was thinking about the last sentence. I just thought it was a coincidence, but come to think of it, it has happened a few times these lately, when I was thinking about something stupid, she would smirk. When I was thinking about her, she would blush. I didn't know what was going on what I was too focused on blue confections. As I walked in, immediately I was searching for a candy shop. The only thing I saw was a hair salon and some clothing shops. BORING. I just want blue candy! Is that just too much to ask for?! Ok I think I'm overreacting, I saw Annabeth going towards the LEGO shop (I guess she just wants to build a prototype of something). But apparently we just had to be disturbed by a bunch of girls. I was getting so sick and tired of this. Like, why me? What did I do to deserve this??? 

The leader of the group walked towards me and wrapped her arms around mine. I saw the disgusted look on Annabeth's face and I quickly pushed that girls arm away from mine. What is up with girls these days? Then the majority of the group has her fingers twirling their hair. I made this stupid face because I didn't even have a clue of what they're doing. Can't they see I'm with Annabeth? I began with a very dumb question, "Why are you girls twirling your fingers in your hair, if you wanted to make them curly, just go the hair salon I saw on my way here." The girls just ran away from me, maybe they found the wrong person. Then I heard someone laugh, "Oh Seaweed brain! They were flirting with you! They didn't need their hair curled! You're just so funny!" Annabeth said in between laughs. "Oh" was all that I could manage. 

I wanted to ask someone about what Annabeth likes (except architecture, I have no idea what to give her) hmmm maybe a box of LEGOs? Nah that's too babyish and that wouldn't be a nice gift. I'm trying to find someone who really knows Annabeth. Then I got a great idea! (for once) I just needed to contact her...
