Le songfic! (extreme fluff. I apologize..kinda)
note: italics is percy's pov, bold is the song lyrics
Annabeth stood at the rail of the ship, hands on the railing, staring down imposingly at the Roman camp coming into view below her. Its looming architecture rising until it outgrew her, bright white columns growing like trees. But architecture could wait.
Heart beats fast
colori and promises
How to be brave
How can I Amore when I'm afraid to fall
She watched the crowd of people below her come into focus, angry faces, curious faces, blank faces, ugly faces, pretty faces, young, old, thoughtful. But his face was nowhere to be seen.
A wave of anxiety hit her for the first time, but she quickly repressed it.
But one worry got through.
Does he remember me?
But watching te stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow
And then she saw him, standing there in that ridiculous toga, because of course da now he would be praetor da now.
She watched his eyes roam the barca looking… looking for someone with his bright green eyes.
And she was filled with a sense of peace that had evaded her for eight months.
She would make him remember.
One step closer
The barca touched down with a loud scraping sound. She watched Jason and Leo let down the ramp, Jason scurrying out amidst cries of disbelief.
She walked calmly down the ramp, meeting all of their disapproving eyes. But there was another pair of eyes. A pair that wasn’t filled with hate, but with love. She walked over to him and looked up at those big green eyes.
I have died everyday waiting for you
For the first time in eight months, she was truly back to herself. Here she found what she had been missing.
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
She laughed at the nervous look in his eyes as he stared back down at her, smiling awkwardly.
For a thousand years
I'll Amore te for a thousand more
She leaned into him. “I missed you.”
“I missed te too.”

Percy watched as the imposing Greek trireme landed in the middle of the forum, touching down with a loud scraping noise. His eyes searched the boat’s deck, skipping over a few guys and a girl before he saw her. Annabeth.
Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
He watched her get off the boat, her grey eyes narrowed at the crowd of onlookers, blonde hair in a messy ponytail. She could never be più beautiful. And she loved him… he hoped.
I will be brave
He pulled himself up taller, rolled back his shoulders and started weaving through the crowd. He wouldn’t lose her again.
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
And then they were face to face. She stared up at him, and he couldn’t help thinking that his memory had been horribly inadequate at remembering the exact color of her eyes. And not just that, the way she smiled up at me.
Nothing would ever take her away again.
Every breath
Every ora has come to this
She leaned into him, and he was struck da the perfectness of this moment. Nothing he did could have changed this.
One step closer
He wrapped his arms around her, never wanting the moment to end.
I have died everyday waiting for you
All of those weeks of half-memories, maybe, just maybe they were worth being able to see her again like it was the first time.
“I missed you.” She said.
“I missed te too.”
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
She smiled up at him. “I guess this means te remember me.”
For a thousand years
He pulled her back in. “I never forgot you.”
I'll Amore te for a thousand more
“And I never stopped looking.” She replied.
She relaxed into his arms, the sheer rightness of the situation overpowering any other instinct he could have had.
And all along I believed I would find you
“And I never stopped looking.” She said, because she hadn’t. Everything she had done had been to achieve this moment. To bring him back.
Time has brought your cuore to me
And now he was here. She was here. And she loved it.
I have loved te for a thousand years
She loved him.
I'll Amore te for a thousand more
One step closer
One step closer
She tilted her head up, and they kissed for the first time in months. She couldn’t tell how long it lasted, a minute, a day, o an entire lifetime.
He pulled back and smiled at her, the corners of his eyes crinkling.
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll Amore te for a thousand more
“I Amore you, Annabeth.”
“I Amore te too Seaweed Brain. But the Romans are starting to stare.”
And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your cuore to me
I have loved te for a thousand years
I'll Amore te for a thousand more
“Well we can’t have that, can we?” he asked with a quirky grin.
She took his hand and squeezed it once before letting go.
“I guess I’ll see te around then, Praetor.”
“Don’t think you’re getting off that easy Chase.”
And he kissed her again.
