At first, Percy would be in shock. His mind would go blank as he sees Annabeth take the knife for him. Then, as the reality sinks in, he would be overcome with a deep sense of love and gratitude for her. He would vow to do whatever it takes to save her and make sure she recovers. He might also become more protective of her in the future.
Percy would be extremely guilt - ridden. He would feel that it should have been him who got hurt instead of Annabeth. He might also be filled with a sense of self - loathing for not being able to protect her.
One possible scenario could be that Percy got injured and Annabeth needs to tend to his wounds on his torso, so she takes his shirt off. For example, he might have been scratched by a monster during a battle, and she has to clean and bandage the wound quickly.
Many fanfiction writers will use flashbacks to heighten the emotional impact. By showing happy memories of Percy and Annabeth, and then contrasting them with the present where they are gone. They might also have characters find solace in the memories of the two, and slowly come to terms with their deaths through the power of those memories.
Maybe it's about Annabeth taking Percy's hoodie as a sign of closeness. She might wear it around and it makes Percy feel a certain way, like a mix of surprise and a bit of flattery.
When they finally embrace. Their bodies fitting together like two pieces of a puzzle that were meant to be. In that hug, they can feel each other's heartbeat, and it's a physical manifestation of the connection they have. It's a moment of pure, unadulterated love and comfort after a period of separation.
Perhaps they are in a maze or a dangerous place filled with traps. Percy accidentally triggers a trap that releases a knife - like projectile and Annabeth, seeing the danger to Percy, moves quickly to shield him from it. This would show her deep loyalty and love for Percy.
Percy's reaction could be complex. Initially, he'd be hurt and angry. But as time passes, if Annabeth is sincere in her attempts to get him back, he might start to question his own feelings. He could be torn between his love for her and the pain of the betrayal.
In such a fanfic, the plot could be very complex. Maybe Annabeth realizes she made a huge mistake. She might start by trying to approach Percy subtly, like showing up at his favorite places. But Percy would be hurt and angry. He might initially reject her attempts. However, as she keeps trying, she could start to show real remorse and explain the reasons for her cheating, which could be due to some external influence or her own insecurities. And Percy might gradually start to question his own feelings towards her again.
Well, it could be that Annabeth constantly corrects Percy in front of others. For example, when Percy is making a plan to defeat a monster, Annabeth keeps interrupting and saying his plan is all wrong. This public humiliation might make Percy mad.
One possible reason could be a misunderstanding. Maybe Annabeth made a decision without consulting Percy, like choosing a quest that she knew was dangerous but didn't tell him until it was too late. Percy might feel left out and mad about it.
One possible reason could be Percy's recklessness. He often jumps into dangerous situations without fully thinking them through, and Annabeth, being the more strategic one, might get frustrated and yell at him for endangering himself and others.
