Well, in the fanfiction world, it could be that Percy is on a mission. He sneaks into Annabeth's dorm to find some important item related to their next adventure. He might search through her bookshelves or drawers carefully while trying not to wake her. If she wakes up, she could be initially shocked but then understand when Percy explains the situation. And they might end up planning their next move together right there in the dorm.
Well, they might have all sorts of adventures right in their dorm. Maybe they'd study together for their mythological classes, with Percy constantly getting distracted by Annabeth's beauty. They could also have late - night talks about their past quests and how to deal with the new threats in their world.
Sharing a dorm would expose them to each other's habits. Percy's sometimes messy ways might initially annoy Annabeth, but she'd come to accept it as part of him. And Annabeth's studious nature could inspire Percy to take his studies more seriously, which would bring them closer. They might start to have feelings that they hadn't fully realized before, like a stronger sense of protectiveness and a deeper emotional connection.
In fanfiction, Percy and Annabeth's love can be depicted in various settings. It could be in the Camp Half - Blood, where they train together and their love story unfolds gradually. For instance, Percy might be clumsy at first when trying to show his affection, which adds a cute touch to the story.
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.
Perhaps Annabeth's dad has some old - fashioned ideas. He might believe that Percy doesn't have the right qualities to be with his daughter. He could also be jealous in a way. Percy is an important person in Annabeth's life and her dad might feel left out or that Percy is taking his place in a sense.
One possible reason could be miscommunication. Maybe Annabeth said something without realizing how it would come across to Percy. For example, if she was stressed about a quest and snapped at him when he was just trying to be helpful.
Their relationship might develop through more in - depth conversations. Since they are engaged, they start talking about their future, like where they want to live. Maybe Percy wants to live near the ocean and Annabeth has other ideas, and they have to compromise.
Their relationship would likely become more nurturing. They would have to rely on each other more as they take on the role of parents. For example, when the child has a nightmare about monsters, Percy might be the one to comfort the child first while Annabeth figures out how to better protect the home. Then they would discuss their concerns and fears for the child together, strengthening their bond as they face these new challenges as a couple.
