percabeth quotes bc they’re everything to me

“i wished annabeth were here. she’d know what to make of my dream. i’d never admit it to her, but she was smarter than me, even if she was annoying sometimes”

“annabeth's voice caught on the word friend. percy was a lot more than that. even boyfriend really didn't cover it. they'd been through so much together, at this point percy was part of her--a sometimes annoying part, sure, but definitely a part she could not live without. ”

‘percy threw his arms around her. they kissed and for a moment nothing else mattered. an asteroid could have hit the planet and wiped out all life, and annabeth wouldn't have cared.’

‘you’re not getting away from me. never again.’

“you dropped this,” he said, totally poker-faced.
annabeth threw her arms around him. “i love you!”

‘before I could lose my courage, I said, “don't I get a kiss for luck? It's kind of a tradition, right?"

i figured she would punch me. instead, she drew her knife and stared at the army marching toward us. "come back alive, seaweed brain. Then, we'll see.” ‘

‘ i'd missed annabeth probably more than I wanted to admit. ‘

‘ “you promised, seaweed brain. we would not get separated! ever again!”
“you’re impossible!”
“love you too! ” ‘

‘ he didn't think much of fates and prophecies, but he did believe in one thing: annabeth and he were supposed to be together. ‘

‘ the rivalry ends here," [percy] said. "i love you, Wise Girl.” ‘

‘ i found myself staring at her, which was stupid since i'd seen her a billion times. still, she seemed so much more mature. it was kind of intimidating. i mean, sure, she'd always been cute, but she was starting to be seriously beautiful. ‘

afterward, i had the last laugh. I made an air bubble at the bottom of the lake. our friends kept waiting for us to come up, but hey-when you are the son of poseidon, you don't have to hurry. and it was pretty much the best underwater kiss of all time.

‘ once she was gone, i knelt next to Annabeth and felt her forehead. she was still burning up. "you're cute when you're worried," she muttered. "your eyebrows get all scrunched together." ‘

‘you drool when you sleep.’

‘ the crowd cheered. annabeth planted a kiss on my cheek. ‘

‘ i was desperate. i had to keep annabeth alive. ‘

‘ she started to sob—i mean horrible, heartbroken sobbing. she put her head on my shoulder and i held her. ‘

‘ i mean, she looked good. really good. i probably would've been tongue-tied if I could've said anything except reet, reet, reet. ‘

“you're laughing at me," i complained.

“i am not!"

“you are so not making this easy."

then she laughed for real, and she put her hands
around my neck. "i am never, ever going to make things easy for you, seaweed brain. get used to it.” ‘

‘ memories came flooding back to me- sharper and more colorful. I stopped dissolving. my name was percy jackson. I reached up and took annabeth's hand. ‘

‘she looked at me, like she was drinking in the fact that I was still here. and I realized I was doing the same thing. the world was collapsing, and the only thing that really mattered to me was that she was alive. ‘

finished! i love them sm<3
