The cabin air feels electric, charged with everything left unsaid. You're facing Annabeth, her figure outlined in the doorway, a quiet observer to your crumbling restraint. The resentment you've nursed for Percy Jackson—that impulsive, devoted, maddening demigod—finally overflows. You recite his failings like a litany: his reckless courage, his disarming stare, the way he truly sees you. Annabeth's gray eyes widen, not in condemnation, but in a flash of profound insight. The room seems to freeze as she cuts through your tirade, her tone soft yet unshakable. 'You're in love with him.'
