Perhaps on the way, they discover a new place in the neighborhood, like an old abandoned building. They explore it together, and during the exploration, they find something that is related to their demigod world, like an old artifact. Working together to figure out what the artifact is and what it means would make their relationship more intertwined as they are sharing a new and exciting adventure.
The relationship between Percy and Annabeth in this fanfiction may develop as they engage in activities after leaving school. Maybe they decide to visit a museum related to Greek mythology. As they explore the exhibits, Annabeth's knowledge of the subject shines, and Percy is in awe of her intelligence. This mutual admiration and the shared interest in mythology can strengthen their bond. They might also have some light - hearted debates about different interpretations of the myths, which only deepens their connection.
Well, they could go for a walk in the park and talk about their latest adventures. Percy might share some crazy story from his time at the beach, and Annabeth could tell him about a new book she's reading. Maybe they'll stop at their favorite ice - cream place and just enjoy each other's company.
One possibility is that when Annabeth picks Percy up, they run into some minor mythological creature that's lost in the human world. They then have to figure out how to get it back to where it belongs without causing too much chaos or attracting unwanted attention. This could lead to a series of comical and adventurous events as they try to communicate with the creature and find a way to send it home.
Percy had been planning this for days. He knew Annabeth's school schedule by heart. He showed up at her school, his heart pounding a bit. When he saw her exit the building, he felt a rush of excitement. 'Annabeth!' he shouted. She looked up, a bit confused at first, then her face lit up. 'Percy!' They met halfway. Percy told her that he wanted to do something different and that picking her up from school seemed like a fun idea. As they made their way to Percy's ride, they shared stories of their recent adventures. Percy talked about a near - miss with a sea monster during his last swim, and Annabeth told him about an interesting debate she had in her history class. It was a moment of normalcy in their otherwise extraordinary lives.
Perhaps it develops as they face challenges together. For example, if some villains target Peter at school, Natasha is there to protect him. This act of protection makes Peter trust her more deeply, and Natasha starts to see Peter as someone she wants to mentor and protect in the long run. They become closer as they rely on each other in difficult situations.
A plot twist could be that when Percy gets to the school, he realizes that Annabeth has disappeared. He starts to search for her and discovers that she has been lured into a trap set by an old enemy. This enemy has plans to use Annabeth as bait to draw Percy in and then defeat them both. Another interesting twist could be that as Percy is waiting for Annabeth, he is suddenly attacked by a group of disguised monsters. He has to fight them off while also trying to find Annabeth. And there could also be a twist where Annabeth has changed in some unexpected way, like she has lost her memory, and Percy has to figure out how to deal with this new situation while getting her home.
Maybe some of Percy's mortal friends who don't really understand his relationship with Annabeth. They see how close they are and might be a bit envious of the special bond they share. For example, if Percy's friend was interested in Annabeth but knew he didn't stand a chance because of her and Percy's relationship, he could be jealous.
Their relationship could develop through shared experiences. For example, on the drive home from school, they start to open up more to each other. Tony might share some of his own childhood stories with Peter, which makes Peter feel closer to him.
In this fanfiction, perhaps Percy and Nico will have an interesting conversation on their way home. Percy might share some of his latest adventures at Camp Half - Blood, while Nico could talk about his day at school.
Their relationship in the fanfiction could develop in a more mature way. College is a time of self - discovery, and they would be no exception. Percy might become more confident in his abilities and be more assertive in the relationship. Annabeth could become more empathetic towards Percy's insecurities. They could also start planning for their future together, like thinking about post - college life and how they can continue to fight for the good of the demigod world while also having a normal life. Maybe they even consider starting a demigod training program for future generations on their own.
