    Summary

    She steps even closer, having to crane her neck up to keep holding her intense gaze onto him. Her eyes are red rimmed and shiny, like she's trying not to cry.

    "Yes," Annabeth grits out. "You." She pushes up on her toes, leaning further into him with each word. They're basically nose to nose.

    "You, Percy Jackson, are a coward."

    A little re-write of this scene in The Last Olympian with some added tension and angst.

    Summary

    Percy had heard of the Hunters of Artemis, and his thoughts raced a thousand miles a minute. He stared at the page, waiting for it to make sense in a way that didn’t feel like falling. He laughed once, shaky and breathless, because this couldn’t be right. Annabeth wasn’t one to run away. She’s the one who stayed, an immovable constant.

    Summary

    “Nonsense, Percy.” The wave of her hand seems dismissive, oblivious, but Annabeth catches a familiar, mischievous glint in Sally Jackson’s eye. It’s the exact same look Percy gets when he’s up to something.

    Uh-oh.

    “You were just saying how pretty her hair looks, weren’t you? Her braids in particular.”

    Percy groans, burying his face in his hands. Annabeth bites her lip nervously. This was not how she expected her introduction to Percy’s mom- the nicest mortal in the world, according to him, by the way- to go.

    Summary

    “oh—hi, perce,” she said, like it was the most normal thing in the world. casual. easy. just her voice, a little hoarse from sparring, but still that same steady tone he’d heard a million times before.

    but percy’s brain just…lagged.

    his first thought was holy shit she’s glowing. second thought: don’t say that out loud. third thought: act normal.

    he managed a crooked grin that felt half a second too late. “hey.”

    his voice cracked—barely—but enough that beckendorf’s shoulders shook with a silent laugh beside him.

    annabeth didn’t notice. she crouched to retie one of her sneakers, muttering something under her breath about clarisse being “all talk,” then straightened, tightening the strap of her chestplate. the sun hit her face at just the right angle, lighting up the bronze undertones of her skin, making the sweat on her temple catch like flecks of gold.

    percy’s chest squeezed.

    or, annabeth and percy realizing that the other isn’t JUST annoying anymore, but also kind of attractive?
