Amnesia
Annabeth's POV
It's been one year since I came to London to study at Manchester. I miss him. I miss him all the time, but I don't show it. I had a boyfriend, Luke, but I recently broke up with him. Mainly because I didn't love him, and I knew he had feelings for my room mate Thalia.
Anyways, back to the topic at hand. My first boyfriend. The only one I actually had true feelings for. Still do. We broke up because I moved, and his career took off. He is apart of the most famous band in America. Heroes of Olympus. Intact, he's the lead singer. His cousin Jason, who happens to be Thalia's brother, is the lead guitarist. Their other cousin, Nico, plays the drums. Their friend, Leo, plays the bass, and Frank, their other friend, is a variety from key bored, to trumpet, to guitar.
They went all around America, and I recently found out they are coming to Europe. I love their band. I Listen to it constantly. The worst part is, is that one of the first songs to come out was written by Percy, to me. I know this, because, well, I lived it.
The song is called Amnesia, and is about how I left. It's a beautiful song and makes me cry pretty much every time I listen to it. None of my friends here know that I dated Percy.
"ANNABETH!" Thalia yells, throwing open our dorm room.
"What?"
"Okay, so you know how your favorite band is Heroes of Olympus?"
I nod my head slowly. "Uh yeah, why?"
"I have tickets! You, me, and front row seats. With backstage passes! Thank you Jason! He said that he is doing it because he wanted to meet you, but I know that's not true cause he hates it when I talk about anything to do with collage."
I laugh. Jason knows me, and he probably actually does want to see me. He also probably wants to surprise Percy.
I smile at Thalia. "That's awesome Thals! Your brother is truly amazing."
"I wouldn't say he was amazing, just, um, okay."
I laugh, rolling my eyes. "When's the concert?"
"Saturday night, seven o'clock. We go back stage afterwards."
I nod my head. I'm really excited because I get to see Percy again. But I'm also really nervous. What if Percy doesn't want to see me? I know he wrote amnesia and all, but that was almost a year ago. He probably doesn't even care anymore.
Time skip (btw let's pretend that collage dorms are a lot different then they actually are)
I step out of the showers with my bath robe wrapped around me. I exit the bathroom, heading to my closet. Thalia is out with Luke and said she'd meet me at the concert. I pick out a pair of black skinny jeans, and a sky blue crop top. Percy always loved the color blue on me, probably because it was his favorite color.
I throw on the clothes, and put on a bit of mascara and lip gloss. I scrape my curls into a pony tail, and slip on some converse. I grab my purse, wallet, phone, and keys.
I leave my dorm, heading to my car. I jump into the drivers seat, turn the radio on, an start to drive.
The first song to come on is actually one of Percy's songs. It also happens to be one of my favorites. Nicotine. Which, in my opinion, is ironic because none of the guys in the band do any drugs.
After a couple minuets, I make it to the arena. It takes at least five minuets to find parking, quicker then I thought.
I jump out of the car and walk to the entrance. My phone buzzes and I glance down.
Hey u here yet? - Thalia
I cringe at her use of not spelling out you. I type back a quick reply.
Yeah, I jus got here. Ill be at the entrance in three minutes. - Annabeth
I get to the entrance, quickly seeing Thalia's blue and black hair. I jog over to her, and we get our tickets scan. It takes twenty minuets to get from the entrance to our seats down on the floor.
"Hey, I'm gonna grab something to drink. Do you want anything?" Thalia says. The show shouldn't start for ten minuets, and that's the opening band.
"Yeah, can I get a water, and we can share a popcorn." I say, taking out some pounds.
Thalia takes the cash, and walks over to the concessions.
Percy's POV
The opening band is about to end, which means I'm about to go on stage. I'm in Manchester, England. I know that Annabeth goes to school here. And God do I hope she got a ticket. I would have offered her a free one, but I lost contact with her when she suddenly stopped replying to texts. I figured she got a new phone, because she always replied. But, that major not be the case, so I never tried to actually see why she stopped replying.
"Come on man, let's go." Jason says, patting my back. I grin at him and walk on to the unlit stage.
The concert, like always, goes very well. One of the last songs we preform, is the one I wrote for Annabeth. It's called amnesia, and I'm not even sure she knows I wrote it about her.
At first there are no lights on, the stage is dark. Then, as I start to sing it is just one me.
I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted
I thought about our last kiss, how it felt, the way you tasted
And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine
Now the whole band is illuminated.
Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?
The next line I wrote because I knew she had a new boyfriend. I still wonder if they are still together.
When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?
Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?
There is always a possibility that it could have. I know she's real because she was friends with the whole band. But what if we never dated?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine? 'Cause I'm not fine at all
I'm really not fine. Haven't been sense she left.
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
I'm pretty sure that if I wore makeup, it would have been running down my face too.
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
It's like she never cared.
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
If I could just forget her, I could move on. Maybe actually get another girlfriend, but I can't. I can't forget about Annabeth.
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape
'Cause I'm not fine at all
And I probably will never be.
The pictures that you sent me they're still living in my phone
I'll admit I like to see them, I'll admit I feel alone
She looks so happy in them, I just wish I was the reason.
And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around
Well, how would they feel if the one girl they've ever loved, left.
It hurts to know you're happy, yeah, it hurts that you've moved on
It's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so long
The band knows not to mention Annabeth. When they do, I go all quiet, so I think they have a secret pact to not mention her name
It's like we never happened, was it just a lie?
If what we had was real, how could you be fine? 'Cause I'm not fine at all
Why'd you have to go Wisegirl?
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
It would make things so much easier.
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape
If I could, I wouldn't have written this damn song.
If today I woke up with you right beside me
Like all of this was just some twisted dream
I'd hold you closer than I ever did before
And you'd never slip away
And you'd never hear me say
And that's the truth. If this is a dream, and she never left. If she just came on tour with me. I wouldn't be shit up, writing lyrics all the time.
I remember the day you told me you were leaving
I remember the make-up running down your face
And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them
Like every single wish we ever made
I wish that I could wake up with amnesia
And forget about the stupid little things
Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you
And the memories I never can escape
'Cause I'm not fine at all
No, I'm really not fine at all
Tell me this is just a dream
'Cause I'm really not fine at all
The song ends, and the crowd cheers. I'm one hundred percent certain that no one knows in the crowd that that song was written because I feel this every day.
We sing the last couple of songs, and, after the fireworks are done, we quietly leave the stage while the crowd is still screaming.
The guys all grin, as we head back to my dressing room, as it is my turn to have the guys in.
While we are talking, Jason suddenly jumps up. "I almost forgot, Perce, I have a surprise for you!"
"Huh?"
"You know, a surprise. It's a thing where-"
"I know what a surprise is, you ass! Why do you have one for me is what I meant."
Jason grins cheekily. "Just wait, you'll love it."
He dashes out the room.
"Do any of you guys know what this is about?"
They all shake their heads. "I think we will all be just as surprised as you Percy." Frank's says, staring at the door.
After a couple minuets of silence I sigh. "Either way, I think the only surprise I'll love is something that-" I'm cut off by the door opening, and Jason walks back in.
I raise an eyebrow at him.
He tosses me a blind fold, signaling that I should put it on.
I sigh, tying it around my eyes.
"Okay, now take them off in three, two one!" I groan, uniting my blindfold. Looking up, I gasp.
"Oh my god." I stand up from where I was sitting in the couch. I slowly walk over to her, in some sort of trans. I watch as tears form in her eyes, as well as mine.
"Annabeth?"
"We'll give you some space." Jason says, still grinning, dragging the other guys out of the room.
"Hey Seaweed brain."
I grin at her, pulling her into a tight hug. "God I've missed you so god damn much." I whisper, placing my head on hers.
I feel her smile into my chest. "Me to, I-I'm sorry. I think not being with you is worse then having a long distance relationship." She sobs, burrowing her face into my chest.
I rub her back soothingly. "Sh, Annabeth, it's okay. I understand. I just, I love you Annabeth."
Annabeth pulls away just enough to gaze up at me. "I love you too Percy."
I smile down at her, it's been so long sense I've been able to say that to her. I never thought I'd be able to again.
I take my right hand, which was still rubbing her back, and gently cup her cheek. She smiles softly up at me, eyelids fluttering. I lean down slowly.
Eventually our lips touch, and, as girly as it sounds, I'm melting on the inside. I haven't kissed Annabeth, much less anyone in over a year. God to I miss it.
Yay! That took awhile to write. I'm not sure if I'm to much of a fan of it though, I'll be surprised if I get any votes on this. Anyways this was the only part, unless I get people telling me to continue it.
