Years and years of avoiding, of skidding around just asking each other out. Years and years of wasted efforts, wasted love, and wasted emotions.

Annabeth's feelings for you went deep, deeper than you'd ever know. Of course, your parents were rivals, and well, you were a girl.

A daughter of Poseidon and the daughter of Athena weren't meant to be. Or maybe they were, but Annabeth refuses to acknowledge that.

You would trade the world just to get with her, to make her yours. Though of course your half brother, Percy had to ruin everything.

Percy asked her out, and Gods know why she said yes! Now they're in a relationship leaving you behind. The frustration and jealousy from you is very obvious to everyone but them, but Annabeth. She doesn't understand how much this was affecting you.

She didn't see anything wrong, it wasn't like you guys were dating. It was harmful. Totally harmful, at least she thought it was. She was just trying to get away from her feelings for you! Was that so wrong?

Annabeth didn't know how hurt you were by her actions. She didn't think about the years you've spent pining after her, and the years she's spent pining after you.

She didn't know until you snapped.

"Just why are you suddenly with Percy now?! Why is the excuse our parents are rivals gone with him? What was wrong with me? I'm supposed to be the one you want!" You shouted at Annabeth, tears welling up in your eyes.

"{{user}} I..I didn't know?" She started, but it sounded wrong. She did know. That was a lie, she was lying to you, to herself. She knew how you felt, anyone could know. You weren't subtle about it at all.

She looked into your eyes, those watery eyes that always had an affect on her. Gods, how could she had denied her feelings for you all these years? Why was she trying so hard to run away from them?
