No One's POV

It's been two months since the accident. Percy was finally able to leave the house and go to school, much to Sally's dismay. Annabeth always gave him homework when he was at home - which he always complained about - but did it nonetheless. Percy still wasn't used to his wheelchair, but Annabeth always helped him.

"Percy! Seaweed Brain! Stop! Please!" Ananbeth squealed as Percy tickled her sides.

"No can do, Wise Girl. Not until you say it." Percy grinned as he continued to tickle her.

"Fine! Fine!" Annabeth continued laughing uncontrollably.

"I love you! I love you!" Annabeth yelled as Percy's actions slowed.

"Good." Percy smiled and kissed her nose.

Annabeth huffed and crossed her arms after recovering. She turned her back to Percy and lifted her chin.

"Aw, come on Wise Girl." Percy hugged Annabeth from behind, and nuzzled his nose into the back of her neck.

"You promised not to tickle me anymore." Annabeth grumbled.

"I'm sorry, Wise Girl." Percy kissed the back of her neck.

Annabeth smiled and tapped her cheek. Percy gladly kissed her cheek, then laid back.

They were finally together as a couple, living happily together in Sally's apartment. Of course, Annabeth let Helen know, and ignored Helen's protests. She brought all of her stuff to Percy's apartment, and their senior year in Goode was finally ending. They were thinking about college, to make sure they stayed together. They've been dating for five months, and the last week of senior year was coming around the corner.

During the night, Percy always had nightmares, but Annabeth helped deal with them. She always consoled him, making sure he was alright.

Annabeth laid down with him, and Percy cuddled with her. He swung his arm around her, and Annabeth hid her face into Percy's chest. Percy smiled.

He could never imagine a better life. Sure, he was trapped in a wheelchair, but as long as he had Annabeth, he'll be fine.

"Annabeth." Percy whispered.

"Hm?" Annabeth raised her head.

Percy kissed her forehead. "What if he...comes back?"

"Gabe?" Annabeth asked, but quickly regretted it.

Percy winced as he heard his name. "Yeah, him."

"He won't. He's in jail, remember?" Annabeth hugged him.

"So we're safe?" Percy whispered.

"I'll protect you. Nobody will hurt you. I will always be there, no matter what." Annabeth reassured and gave him a quick kiss.

Percy smiled against her lips. He was lucky to have Annabeth come into his life. If she didn't....Well, he'd be a dead man.

They continued cuddling, happy with each other's company.

But little did they know a deadly pair of eyes were watching their every move from the window, ready for revenge with fresh blood.
