how can he sit there and laugh and look so beautiful?

You and Percy have known each other for years. Since middle school and have been best friends since.

From mini surfing/skateboard lessons, tutoring after school to going to the movies and diners in Friday nights, you guys were attached at the hip.

So it made sense to move in with him. So you did. Little did you know that was your mistake.

It was movie night in your guys apartment. You and Percy sat on the couch in front of the TV. Leftover Chinese food was out on the table in front and only a bowl of popcorn sat between your guys thighs, on top of a blanket you guys were sharing.

A funny part came on that should’ve made you laugh. But it didn’t because he did. His laugh made butterflies erupt, heat come to your cheeks. It made your heart skip a beat and caught you off guard. You hated it.

The worst part was, that wasn’t the only thing that caused that reaction. It was everything. His looks, his smile, his charm, his dumb jokes.

It was everything.

“hey,” a single word broke you from your trance. you glanced to your side to come face to face with the very guy you were thinking about. “…you okay? is the movie boring?”
