A/N My first Percabeth story! This idea is from dnapolymerase316, who never finished her story, so I decided to finish it for you guys. Please read! Thanks! :)

Aphrodite. Why. Can't. You. Leave. Me. Alone. Or us alone, actually. Percy and I. She gets me so mad I just want to shove that pink bottle of perfume up her skinny- fine, you get the idea. Argh. Maybe I should explain what happened.

I woke up in the morning, feeling refreshed and energetic. No one was going to ruin this perfect day. Since there was no training, Percy and I decided to go canoeing at the lake. YESH. I'm soo excited! Did I mention I have a little, ah, crush in Percy? No surprise there, I guess. I mean, every girl likes him. He has these gorgeous green eyes, a very visible 6-pack, a deep tan... Oh right. I'm getting carried away. Sorry. The thing is, Percy is just clueless. We've been friends for so long, and he doesn't seem to want to take a step further. Humph. I wonder how long I can wait. Anyway, back to reality. I jumped up, and grabbed random clothes from my closet. Let's see, I came up with: a loose gray t-shirt with a large owl on it (go Athena!), and a pair of skinny dark-wash jeans. I laced up my neon green converse, grabbed my dagger, and ran out of my cabin.

"Percy!" I screamed when I arrived at his cabin. "Wake up! Canoeing, remember?"

"Wait, lemme sleep for a while longer," he mumbled with his eyes still closed, turning around so he was facing me. What a lazy butt. Oh, wait. He wasn't wearing a shirt. Ahh! I hope I'm not drooling.

"Get up!" I yelled, louder as I threw a pillow at him. It bounced right off. Oh, those abs of steel. It's just not fair. It's like he's the porch light and I'm the moth. Well, I don't get how porch lights are attractive, but that's not the point.

"Ughokwaitformeoutside," he mumbled.

Five minutes later, he came out fully dressed. *mental sigh* "So, canoeing." He said. "Wanna do something more fun? Like sleeping?" My eyes widened.

"Um... what exactly do you mean by that?" I asked, hoping I wasn't actually blushing.

Percy flushed. "No! No, not that way," he said, realizing his mistake. "Nevermind, let's just go."

We walked together through the maze of cabins. I could hear shouting coming from the Ares cabin (as usual), gossiping from the Aphrodite cabin (as usual), and the sound of hammers on metal from the Hephaestus (as usual). It was a pretty normal day. When we passed the campfire, I smelled something suspiciously like 10 different perfumes combined together.

Suddenly, through a puff of perfume, someone materialized before us. Aphrodite. Ew. I tried not to gag. This day was NOT going to be normal anymore. Out of all the gods, I think I like Aphrodite the least. Along with Hera, of course. The cow poop. Right. Back with the story. "Hey, Percy, Annabeth," Aphrodite gushed.

"Lady Aphrodite," Percy said, staring at her as if she was the world's largest pizza. "Pleasure to meet you." I tried restrain myself from punching him in the stomach.

"What brings you here?" I asked her, getting right to business as usual.

"Well, I need to give my kids fashion advice, because I think they might be a little behind on the trends," she said. I snorted. They had the most fashionable clothes anyone could get. "Oh, and since you two are here, I need you to help me," she added.

"Anything, my lady," Percy said. 'Boys', I thought. Their brains were the size of peas.

"I invented a new perfume," Aphrodite said. "I need you two to try it out for me."

"Never will I-" I started, but Aphrodite had already taken out a bottle of pink perfume and sprayed it on us. I choked, coughing on the sickly sweet smell. Percy was doing the same.

'Why did she do this to us?' a voice in my head said.

'I know right!' I thought back.

'I mean, she is totally hot, but I wouldn't want to be sprayed by some random perfume. I'll reek for months!'

What?! That was definitely NOT my thought. Aphrodite, hot? NO WAY WOULD I EVER-

'Annabeth?' that voice in my head said.

'Yes?' I responded.

'OMG WE CAN TALK USING OUR MINDS THAT IS SO COOL' that voice said.

'WHAT?' I thought. Oh no. This is not good at all. 'Percy?' I though tentatively.

'Yup, that's me,' he said.

"APHRODITE!" I screamed. I looked around. Where was she? "APHRODITE!" I screamed again. No answer, but I got a few dirty looks thrown in my direction. Oh, she is so going down. I will not share a mind connection with Perseus. No, no, no.

"Come on, let's go talk to Chiron," I said out loud.

"Ok, Percy replied.

Chiron was at the big house. "Chiron?" I asked. "I think there is a problem with the minds of Percy and I. We are somehow connected. We can hear each other's thoughts. Do you have a way to help?"

Chiron just stared. Then he burst out laughing. "No way! How's that even possible?"

'Chiron, the great know-it-all immortal centaur, not believing that our mind connection is real.' I thought. 'Just great.'

'Hey, well, look on the bright side.' Percy thought back. 'We can communicate without using our mouths. How cool is that?'

'Yeah, but we'll know each others secrets, right?' Like the fact that Percy's so gorgeous and his green eyes are so mesmerizing...

'I heard that, you know,' Percy thought. 'I know I'm beautiful too.'

ARGH! He heard that! I have to be more careful about what I'm thinking from now on.

A/N So how was it? Did you like it? Reviewers get some perfume. ;)
