Ugh Drew

17:15, 11 June 2024

I had a very weird dream.

The dream:

(A/N- Wanna check out the story behind this dream? Read all about it in my percabeth fanfic 'The merman and the princess')

I woke up on a couch next to a stiff Percy. The windows were drawn and lights were still off. Light snores and sleep mumbling were the only sounds I could make out in an otherwise silent room.

I squinted my eyes, trying to read the clock. It couldn't be later than 3 am.

I sighed. Dam it! I could have slept for longer. But I often found it impossible to fall back asleep after I woke up.

I tried stirring as carefully as possible, trying to not wake a dead as a log Percy.

I braced myself on my elbows, attempting to dangle myself over the side, legs first.

His hand reached out, snaking around my waist and pulling me closer as he murmured something into my hair.

I flushed. Sinking into a pit of embarrassment I created myself. If someone wakes up they're going to make so much fun of us.

Not that you'd mind, a part of my brain teased

Shut up, I told it.

I tried squirming away from Percy, however, his grip just grew tighter as he pulled me closer until I was practically up against his chest, body pressed completely to his. A hot wave of embarrassment coursed through me as I weighed my options.

On one hand, I wanted to cuddle into him like a rabbit. I did exaggerate to him about how cold it was last night.

On the other, I pushed myself off of him with a huff and got up from the couch.

Percy stirred. "Wise girl?" he called lightly, voice filled with a morning deepness that made me kinda blush. What? He's my friend. I just thought it was cute.

"Here and accounted for," I said, sitting on the armrest as he squinted, throwing an arm over his forehead to shield him from the thin stream of light in the room.

I put my hand over my lips, "sssh everyone's asleep."

He groaned, sitting up slowly. I watched as he blinked, still in a state of sleepyness. I had no idea when or how long he slept. Which made me feel guilty about waking him up.

"Go back to sleep." I told him, waving at the couch/makeshift bed. "you're tired."

He threw a hand over his mouth, stiffing a yawn, "No I'm not,"

Suddenly, I was well aware of the point where his shirt had ridden up, revealing his hard stomach.

I cleared my throat, trying to keep my voice even. "Percyy just... sleep-"

"Why?" He asked, looking at me with those gorgeous eyes. Gods be damned.

"Because you need sleep. And I need breakfast," I whispered.

He got up with a smirk, throwing an arm around me. "Lead the way mildly, some coffee sounds great!"

I rolled my eyes, fighting to keep a grin from my face as we made our way to the kitchen.

There, we ran into the cook, who had somehow miraculously appeared since yesterday. Speaking of which...where was he yesterday ?!

(Not available because I wanted Percabeth fluff MMWAHAHAHHA —S)

I brushed the thought aside and let him make Percy and I a cup of coffee. He told us he had to run out to get some bread and groceries to make breakfast for the gang.

So I decided to go up to my room, Percy in tow.

"You can take a nap in here," I told him, swining the door open.

There, I saw Drew. She ruffled through my cupboards and drawers, practically tearing my room apart. It was a mess. An absolute mess.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" I screamed, extremely angry at the violation of my room.

"Oh! Percyy," she drawled, her practically sheer   bathrobe hid nothing, "what are you doing here."

"Waiting for you to answer Annabeth's question," he replied, taking my hand.

She narrowed her eyes at me, her expression changing In an instant, "where is it bi*ch?!" she practically barked.

It took me a second to figure out what she was talking about. "Oh? The footage? It's not here. I don't keep important stuff in my room, just in case there are rats around here."

"Don't make me....hurt you again, Annabitch. I can have you kicked out of the manor in a second. Be a good girl and give it to me," she purred, her eyes shining with a vicious light.

"And I can have you thrown in jail," I replied, "Now,get out. And if I see you again....well I'm sure great aunt Aphrodite would like to know what her daughter's upto."

Drew's eyes grew wide. She made a lewd gesture with her hand at me, flipping her hair and walking out of the room. Making sure her shoulder bumped into mine on way out.

"Percyyyy," she said, turning to him as she left, "My bedroom is right there in case you want to-"

Since Percy's attention was not on her, I took the liberty of answering.

"Get out." I slammed the door on her face. Unfortunately it didn't hit her.

I turned to Percy, "I'm so sorry you had to witness that."

"How did she hurt you, Annabeth?" he asked, fists clenched at the sides.

"I....I don't think it's that,"

He grabbed my hand gently, using the other to push my chin up so that I would look at him.He moved to sit on the bed, I followed.

"Don't lie," he whispered.

I shook my head, "I won't." Pulling up my sleeve, I displayed the almost healed burn marks.

Percy's eyes narrowed, as if he already knew what happened.I took a deep breath. And told him everything that had happened.

He listened without a word, his knuckles became practically white as he clutched my sheets.

"I'm sorry you felt you couldn't tell me," he said after I was done.

"Percy...I didn't tell anyone for a while. But...I'm glad I told you."

I wrapped my hands around him, propping my knees on the bed. I hugged him tight, his hands going around my waist as he welcomed the embrace.

We stayed there for a while, until the door flung open.

"What's happening agaiiiinnnnnnn," Piper practically squealed as she entered.

I jumped apart from Percy, landing with a thud in the floor. Ouch.

Turns out Piper was here to beckon us for breakfast. And we went.
