Chapter 2: Arguing and Apologizing
I got up early selanjutnya morning, really unenthusiastic about it. I couldn't believe I would have to spend an entire hari with Percy.
Okay, under normal circumstances, I would have been overjoyed. But these circumstances were not normal.
I got ready for the morning really quietly, since my kabin mates were still sleeping. I walked out onto the grounds and headed for the Armory, where Percy and I would finish the chariot the children of Hephaestus had started.
When I reached the cabin, Percy was already up and working. I have to admit, I was impressed. Percy wasn't exactly an early riser.
"Ah, good, you're finally awake. anda know, after all the times you've called me a sleepy pantat, keledai I would have thought that anda would be the first one up." Percy said. I could hear the mockery in his voice.
"Humph!" I flicked my hair right into his face and got to work.
At first it was quite, but anda know seaweed brain and I can't stand being selanjutnya to each other without there being something going on. When we're happy, its kissing, and when we're angry it's… what's about to happen.
"Oh my gods, seaweed brain! anda can't even screw the tire on properly!" I exclaimed. Though I knew he was doing it perfectly fine, just not using the same method I would. But anda know me; I seize every chance to pick on Percy when I'm mad.
"I am doing it perfectly fine! anda would have berkata the same thing if I put on my left kaus kaki before my right! Just because you always put you're right kaus kaki on first!" He snapped back. Then he blushed furiously, and I could tell I was too. I let my hair fall over the side of my face.
He even remembered which kaus kaki I put on first? Aw, that is so cute! A voice exclaimed, deep in my head. I pushed it away. I wasn't going to let something as small as that flatter me.
But for some reason it did. We both went back to work.
The selanjutnya time we began arguing, Percy started it.
"Stick to the blueprints Annabeth!" He yelled at me. I had found out an easier way to get the chariot done, but it could just ruin it too.
But hey, I would risk anything to get out of this awkward position faster.
"Okay! Why do anda have to scream?" I yelled back.
"I have to talk loud, because if I say it quietly, it doesn't get through to that thick head of yours!" He yelled back.
I knew the moment he berkata it, he was sorry. It was so clear in his eyes. And I couldn't blame him for thinking something like that.
Usually, I would have punched a guy in the face for saying that, but hearing Percy say it just hurt. I felt like crying. But I didn't. I was stronger than that.
"Why would anda say something like that Percy?" I berkata it quietly. I could hear the hurt in my voice.
I usually didn't get emotional, but when it comes to my smarts, I'm a little sensitive, and insecure.
It was like that for every son atau daughter of Athena.
"Annabeth I …" Percy trailed off. He obviously didn't know why he had berkata that. But I did.
"Percy, look at us!" I exclaimed. "We never argue anymore! And now that we are, I just can't stand it! And hey, it's not like anda can blame me! anda know how I am sometimes! I get really jealous, I admit it! But it's so frustrating when anda don't even see that other girls like to flirt with anda and anda just fall right into it because you're a clueless, insecure...insecure…" I struggled for words, but then I remembered the one word that I could always rely on, "insecure SEAWEED BRAIN!" I finished.
anda have got to give me pujian for the grand finale.
"I know… I know…" Percy said, looking at me apologetically.
"Well if 'you know' then say sorry already! And I'll say sorry too! Just apolo-" What happened selanjutnya I didn't expect.
Percy's lips were on mine, completely cutting me off with the best ciuman ever.
I had to hand it to him; he was an amazing kisser.
We stood there, arm in arm, kissing, for several moments before the room illuminated with a bright light. But we didn't exactly notice until later.
We were still 'busy' when we heard a familiar voice entering the armory.
"Hey, someone call me? I was free and I heard my name so I decided-" Percy and I pushed away from each other, just as the guy with blonde hair in a leather jaket walked in, looking at us with a smirk on his face.
"Lord Apollo?" Percy and I asked, bewildered. Then we quickly bowed.
He was still smirking.
"Um, may I know why anda called me?" He asked, clearly holding back a laugh.
"Um what are anda talking…" Percy trailed off and looked at me. I was blushing ten times lebih than him. I knew why Apollo was here.
"Lord Apollo… I, uh, didn't call you. I was halfway through saying the word 'apologize'." I glanced at Percy. He seemed to understand because he was redder than me now. Apollo chuckled.
"I see anda were, not so rudely, interrupted." He berkata with a smirking glance at Percy. Percy and I seemed to be having a "Who can blush the most" competition, and neither of us could beat the other.
"Well I'll leave anda kids to your 'work'." Apollo said. Percy and I turned around as became his true form and took off.
Percy and I looked at each other for a long moment.
"Sorry?" He offered. I nodded smiling.
"Me too." I said.
He grinned widely. Damn he was hot.
We weren't able to finish the chariot that day, but Chiron didn't seem to mind. I figured he knew why.
A/N: Yeah that is pretty much it! Thanks for reading!

((Just so anda all know, this is only a small part of the whole chapter. I'm particularly proud of this bit, as you'll soon see. Keep watch for an exclusive interview between The Fanfic's own Rita Skeeter and yours truly!))
Harry looked down at the long daftar of Quidditch hopefuls. "Hailey, I don't see your name on here. I thought you'd sign up."
Hailey looked up from her eggs, smiling. "I'd rather leave Quidditch and rule-breaking to you. That IS what you're best at, after all," she berkata simply.
Harry only rolled his eyes. She could tell he hoped she had some of Dad's Quidditch talent, but she wasn't eager to prove it. After all, her family had enough publicity as it was.
((Now, this is only a teeny bit of the chapter. The real thing'll be a lot longer. But you'll have to wait quite a while for it.))
