Gabe Ugliano. Two words that made this hero cry like a little kid who had seen a scary movie. The girl he loved. The girl that he would do anything for. Like the time when he fell into literal hell for her. Those weren't the the things that really gave him nightmares and anxiety depression, not like he had ever had any fits in front of anyone though. Annabeth was his lifeline. But she didn't know who Gabe UGLYano really was, and what he had done to this hero.

Percy was hanging with his friends.

"Come on wise girl, please"! He was pleading. Piper wasn't there to charmspeak her into going into the water, because she was currently in a make-out session with Jason. Hazel was splashing Frank, then she plunged under water, only to come up a moment later with an eel in her hand that morphed into Frank, and then poor Hazel fell underwater again, not being able to hold his weight.

"No Percy". Annabeth said, "After I was gone from Cali, I like lost my tan, so I am tanning".

Calypso started singing Katy Perry's "California Girls" and ducked as Annabeth threw her shades at Calypso.

Percy sighed and waded into the water with his shirt on. 

Hazel looked at him "Percy, don't you want to take you shirt off? It is hot today WOAH-".

Frank dunked her again, smiling as she threatened him.

"No thanks Hazel". Percy said. Something in his eyes was wrong though. 

Annabeth noticed too, because she put her magazine down and waded into the water. She didn't even flinch at the water, even though wearing a bikini.

She wrapped her arms loosely around Percy. "Are you okay"? She asked, her voice full of concern.

Percy didn't reply. Annabeth got even more worried. She pecked his lips. "Percy, what is going on"?

Percy shook his head "Nothing". Annabeth crossed her arms over her chest "Nothing is always something". She sang.

"Can't you see I don't want to talk about it"! Percy snapped. Annabeth Grabbed his arm "Percy".

Percy pulled his arm away from her "I said I don't want to talk"!

Annabeth watched him go. She didn't know WHAT was wrong with percy, but she knew something definitely was.

There was a knock on the cabin door "Percy"? Annabeth's voice said. "May I come in"?

Nothing.

Annabeth opened the door anyhow.

Percy was alone, sitting on his bed. He had his head in his hands. He was whimpering. 

Annabeth ran to his side. She didn't know what was wrong, but she knew she needed to help him. She wrapped her arms around him and buried her face in his neck. 

"Shh". She said "Calm down Percy". She didn't know how Percy managed to calm her down from her nightmares and flashbacks, he was just so good like he had been experiencing them for a lot longer and knew how to make them better. Annabeth felt a flash of guilt, Maybe her boyfriend had flashbacks and nightmares, but he would always help her.

He let out a groan. He opened his eyes. He saw Annabeth's dagger. "Please don't hurt me". He whimpered,

Annabeth dropped her dagger. She poked him "Percy, I would never hurt you".

Percy started crying. "Percy-"? Annabeth started to ask. "Sorry, I didn't mean to cry, please don't hurt me".

Annabeth was distraught. She kissed him on the lips. "percy, it is me, you gave up immortality for me, you fell into Tartarus for me. I love you so much so calm down".

Percy closed his eyes and opened them. They were glassy and teary. "Annabeth"?

Annabeth let him sob on her shoulder, because he was doing the same thing. 

She needed to find out what was happening with her seaweed brain.
