And then she arrived and my heart did an embarrassing flip-flop. I had liked her for so long and I still went redder than Paul's cool sweater that he always wore to school. "Hi." Oh, and Will was there too talking to Nico. At least that was working out.

Dam how does she always manage to look so stunning. There is no way that there's someone in this world that's more beautiful than her. Nope, no way.

"Jackson, snap out of it." Thalia hit me on the back of my head.

"Ow."

"I get it she's pretty but you look like a creep just staring at her, go talk to her." Thalia pushed me towards her.

Ok, act natural. It's just Annabeth. The girl of your dreams. The girl that you've liked for years. The girl that you don't stand a chanc-

"Percy hi, are you ok?" Annabeth said as she smiled one of her gorgeous smiles. I wanted to kiss her so badly, but I didn't do that. Obviously.

Stop staring at her lips and talk you idiot.

Right talking exists. "Um, uh- hi, how have you been?"

"I'm fine, are you ok though you look a little red in the face are you sure you don't have a fever." She seemed genuinely concerned and I was genuinely embarrassed.

Incredible. Splendid. Amazing. She thinks you have a fever. Honestly just die already. You're an embarrassment to society.

"No, I'm fine. I just have a medical condition."

Yes, keep going because that's so much better. Mom would be so proud.

"Uh, cool." Awkward. "Hey, Piper I brought my en pointe shoes." And she walked away. This was a great example of how this was not supposed to go.

I sat down and died there. "Hey, it's ok not everyone is great at flirting like me."

"Thanks for the reassurance, Leo. You know it helps. So much." I muttered.

"Jeez, no need to be so salty it's not my fault you told her you have a medical condition. What's the condition called? Blushofrenia." He laughed at his own joke. Classic Leo.

"Leo give him a break." Jason put his arm around my shoulder. "Look Perce if she can't see how great you are then she doesn't deserve you, there are plenty of other girls out there. Now stop sulking and maybe you might stand a chance."

I could always count on Jason. Jason was the mom friend of the group, he always had the best advice. I swear he had a secret superpower or some shit. Plus he kept us all from dying constantly. "Thanks, Jase maybe you're right." Today was the day I impressed Annabeth Chase with my skateboarding skills and didn't fall over.

"Hey, Annabeth can I show you something?" I hoped this would work.

She turned around. "Sure what did you want to show me." Piper nodded at me and mouthed "show her a trick."

"I want to show you a trick, Wise Girl."

"Sure, I'd love to see you not mess up this time." She laughed cutely.

Ok, Jackson don't mess up. Just do a Laser Flip.

I so didn't want to mess up. I stood on the edge of the rink and took a deep breath. And I took off. It wasn't too hard a trick, it was one that I had practised. I just hoped this might make her think I'm a cooler and not a complete freak.

I did it. "So what did you think?" I grinned at her.

"I'm surprised you didn't mess up, I thought I was going to need to bring out my first aid again, Seaweed Brain." Everyone laughed at that.

"Haha, I'm not usually that clumsy."

"Stop lying to her!" Someone, probably Leo yelled.

"Ok, fine but we're you impressed?"

"Fine, It was sort of impressive." She rolled her eyes. I'd take sort of impressive, good enough for me. Annabeth was impressed, maybe I did stand a chance. Maybe.

That's it idk if it's good I tried. I'm so tired. This just meant to be a cute filler chapter from Percy's pov introducing a little more of his friends and Annabeth and you know, his passion skating. Did you like or not? Give me so feedback please. And I'll see ya all next time.

Also it would be greatly appreciated if you could check out my Percabeth one-shots book I just updated it yesterday and I worked really hard on it. Thanks ☺️
