A/N Yay another update! Sorry, it's a little later in the day than I usually post. I was eating chocolate and gummies. It's here now though! It's a Valentines special. (as if you didn't know that, it's literally in the chapter title.) Please don't take offence to anything, similarities are purely coincidental. Nothing else to say. Enjoy the chapter.

My friends, Ellie and Annabeth, and I walked down the hallway towards the study hall of Golden Gate High (A/N Wow I'm so creative. I don't know if that's a real place or not, but whatever.). Today was the Valentines Day Dance, but none of us were going, so we opted for some girl time in the sure-to-be empty study hall. See, Annabeth's boyfriend lived in New York, so he wasn't here, and Ellie and I were waiting for the perfect men to come and sweep us off our feet. Of course, we could have gone solo to the dance, but none of us felt like it so we were going to the study hall.

We reached the doors and pushed them open, walking to the study hall. I let out a sigh of relief when I saw that Jocelyn, the school sl- bully wasn't there. (A/N Sorry if that's your name) It was silly to be afraid, she didn't even bully us three - or she didn't anymore. She used to bully all Ellie and I but at the beginning of this year, she and one of her goons were talking trash to us when Annabeth showed up. She'd told Jocelyn to stop, and when one of the goons tried to throw an extremely weak punch, she'd caught it, threw one of her own considerably stronger punches, and told them to back off. After that, they didn't bully us anymore, and that was the beginning of our friendship. I came back to reality just as Ellie suggested truth or dare. I nodded my head in agreement, well Annabeth responded positively as well. We sat in a circle, and began.

-----Ava will take you to an hour later, but she's feeling rebellious about how I choose where and when she takes you to, so I apologize if you end up in the wrong place.-----

"Annabeth, truth or dare," Ellie said, as I giggled at the sight of Ellie coming back from her last dare covered in pink glitter. I had dared her to go to the "Couples Corner" and yell "Love is stupid!". The Couples Corner was a sort of station that a couple of love crazy girls has set up in an empty classroom. You and your significant other could go their to get.........I don't know, couply stuff. I wasn't going there, those girls are crazy. I mean, when Ellie had yelled that love is stupid, they apparently threw glitter at her! Can you blame me for not wanting to go there?! "Um, I'll do dare this time, I did truth on my last turn," Annabeth responds to Ellies query. "Okay let's see...... I dare you to-" She was cut off by a song playing from the speakers. The playlist we'd been listening to had run out about fifteen minutes ago so we were all confused. I quickly recognized the song as A Thousand Years, by Christina Perri. Apparently Annabeth did too, for she was listening to the song with her eyes closed, a small, dreamy smile spreading across her face.

I was facing the door, so I could see when they opened and a boy about our age walked in. He had black hair and sea green eyes, and looked super familiar. My brow furrowed as I tried to remember where I'd seen him before. My eyes widened as I realized where I recognized him from. He was the boy from the picture Annabeth had showed us! He was Percy, Annabeth's boyfriend. And he was walking straight towards her. Ellie and I stared at him, she had recognized him before I did. He smiled at us and held a finger to his lips. The lyrics started as Percy walked up to Annabeth and placed his hand on her shoulder.

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave?
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall?
But watching you stand alone

All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

Annabeth stands, tensing, but when she sees Percy, she steps closer to him and they kiss.

One step closer

When they break apart, Percy whispers something in Annabeth's ear and she nods, leaving her arms around his neck as they begin to dance across the study hall.
I have died every day waiting for you                                                                                                                           
Darling, don't be afraid                                                                                                                                                       
I have loved you for a thousand years                                                                                                                          
I'll love you for a thousand more                                                                                                                                    

I see Jocelyn standing in the doorway, staring open mouthed at Percy and Annabeth, who are still dancing, oblivious to the world. I bet she followed Percy here hoping to him to be her boyfriend of the week. Ha! Fat chance of that happening. It's crystal clear that Annabeth and Percy are deeply in love. I point Jocelyn out to Ellie and we start to make our way over to her. Suddenly, I'm not scared any more.

Time stands still                                                                                                                                                                     Beauty in all she is                                                                                                                                                               I will be brave                                                                                                                                                                         I will not let anything take away                                                                                                                                    What's standing in front of me                                                                                                                                         Every breath                                                                                                                                                                           Every hour has come to this

"Hey, Jocelyn," Ellie whispers once we're standing next to her. "What do you want, nerds?" She asks with a sneer though she returns to staring open mouthed at Percabeth (That's what I'm calling them now, because they're so cute) immediately after. "Three things," I answer quickly. "One, I take pride in being a nerd (A/N Nerds for life!) so thank you, two, you should close your mouth or you'll catch flies, and three, don't even think about trying to break them up, they're in love." She doesn't respond at first, instead staring at Percabeth. Then she turns to us. "What do you know, freaks?" I take a moment to respond, watching Annabeth and Percy dance.

One step closer                                                                                                                                                                       

"I know that they've known each other since they were twelve, so you have no chance, and that if try to break them up, I will report you to the principal for harassment. She sneers at me again, but she's always been a coward without her minions behind her, and she turns and walks out of the room Percabeth is still oblivious. 

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer

One step closer

I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

At the end of the song, they passionately kiss again. Annabeth then seems to remember that Ellie and I are still in the room. "Oh, yeah, Aravis, Ellie, this is Percy, my boyfriend. Perce, these are my mo-my school friends." I can't hold it back anymore. I squeal and run forward, shaking Percy's hand vigorously. "It's so nice to finally meet you! Annabeth is constantly talking about you! You two are so cute, Percabeth forever!!!!!!!!!" I start to blush when I realize what I just said, but Percy just grins. "You should meet our friend Piper, you two would get along great," He says. "Annabeth's talked about her too, but not as much as she does you," Ellie chimes in with a grin on her face. Percy grins wider and turns to Annabeth. "Aw, you missed me Wise Girl! You just couldn't keep from describing my amazing (A/N AmaZhang, Percy, get it right. Sorry, I had to.) deeds to the masses." "Shut up, Seaweed Brain," Annabeth replies, blushing slightly. 

The bell rings, signalling the end of the school day. "We should go," Percy starts, "Mr. Brunner wants you back at camp, Annabeth." (A/N They call Chiron Mr. Brunner in front of mortals, just incase.) "Oh, okay, why?" Annabeth responds. They seemed to forget that Ellie and I were still there. "There are three new campers in your cabin, and we think one of them was abused by her step mom, she won't talk to anybody. Mr. Brunner wants to see if she'll respond to you," Percy states. "Oh no! I'll come right away, I assume you have a way to get us there?" Percy nods at Annabeths question. "We should probably go to, you guys have a good time, and I hope you can help that camper," Ellie says as I nod along with her. "Thanks, you guys have a good weekend and I'll see you when I can," Annabeth answers. We nod and exit the room. And that was how I met my new OTP. 

A/N For those of you who don't know, because I didn't know until I googled it, your OTP is your One True Pairing. It's like the couple you think should be together, your favourite ship. So that one was a little longer than the last one, so I hope you enjoyed. Please comment and give me feedback, what you liked, what I can do better, that kind of thing. Have a good day! (Guess I should say 'Have a good Valentines Day', but whatever.)
