Judo Flipped Love

     I've found her, I'm starring at her reading a book, it's been fifteen minutes since I started starring. The way her golden locks fall around her shoulders, the way she breezes through the pages as she's reading has me mesmerized.


     I could go over there and talk to her, it wouldn't be very hard; with what she said yesterday it's obvious she wants to find me too, Right? Of course she does I'm Percy Jackson the captain of the basketball team, lover of great music, and the hottest boy in school - according to Liam anyway. Yeah that's right you are Percy freaking Jackson you can do this.


     So then now all I need to do is walk over there. One, two, three and go, left foot, right foot, left foot, right foot, and now I'm standing in front of her - well behind her, she hasn't even noticed me. I stare at her a second before deciding I can't turn back, I tap her shoulder, "He-" my back hurts, I'm out of breathe, I think I'm on the ground, and I almost positive the ceiling has stars on it now.


     "You know you shouldn't sneak up on someone." she looks down at me and smiles, "Hello Percy." she says.


     I give a weak smile, "Hi, can I ask why I'm on the ground."


     "Judo flip," she holds her hand out,  "need a hand?" she had judo flipped me to the ground wow... at least we don't have to worry about being robbed, if, when we get married.


     I take her hand, smiling, "Sure." Even though I've just been thrown to the ground, I can't help but be happy I've found her. 


     After I've gotten off the ground - the eyes of intrigued people start to wander on to more important things - I take a seat next to her. We both just look at each other taking in the fact we are sitting next to each other. I want to say something, instead I let the moment drag on longer letting my heart savor everything.


     Annabeth breaks the silence, "So then, it's been awhile, well a few days anyway."


     "Yeah it has," I shift kind of awkwardly in my seat, "how have you been?" I ask, probably a little too formal for two people who've been on a beach date.


     "Oh you know, great," She looks around avoiding my eyes, "finished the book I was on. You know the Etruscan's where quite the magnificent builders, in fact many of the things early Roman's used they learned from the Etruscan's."


     I'm not really sure what any of that meant but it sounded like she was really passionate about it, and I love when people have passion - maybe not if it's, let's say, a passion for killing but on the bounds of something acceptable with society


     "I'm not sure what that means but it sound cool, what's a Etruscan?" I ask curious.


     "It's a people fro-" The bell in the library rings sounding the students to go to their next class, "Well you know it doesn't really matter, but how about we trade numbers so I can get to class." I want to scream of course she has to go to class. "I definitely want to see you again, but I think it be best if it wasn't through a judo flip." she says, taking her phone out.


     I get my phone out too and hand it to her, "Yeah I think that would be best for our relationship, and my back." I laugh at my own joke then we add our number in our phones and she's off as quick as cheetah, or maybe a rabbit.


     Before heading back I stay in the library a bit, talking to Rachel about the whole thing. Telling her about the crazy judo flip - that she saw - and our conversation; how it was terribly awkward, but more exhilarating then shooting the winning shot at state, better than when one of my favorite bands release a new single.


     After leaving the library I head home, not focused enough to deal with school. When I get home I reexplain everything once again, this time to my mom. Not shutting up until it's visible my mom doesn't is tired of me retelling the same story. Then I go to my room and lay on the bed texting her, loving every word she sends.


     Once she got home from school, and did her homework, we talked on the phone till one in the morning; we planed our next date, talked about things that mean nothing, and I listened to her tell me things I don't understand, but could never get enough of.


    I'm not very old yet, and I know that I've got a lot of life left to live, but I definitely want to live it with her, and that's the end of the story plane and simple.
