10A/N: So this is the chapter I added. I felt like the story wasn't complete without Annabeth's side of the story. I apologize for the third person, but it's the way I write best. Trying to write more in character's points of view.
Disclaimer: This would still be a no-own…
Hey Santa: Annabeth
If everyday was Christmas
If we could make believe
If everyone would care a little more
There'd be harmony
The city is covered in snow tonight
The children fast asleep
I'm waiting for him, but he's nowhere in sight
And I wonder if he can hear me
Annabeth sat on her bunk, watching the snow fall out the cabin window. Her brothers and sisters were already asleep. They'd spent all night planning a special Capture the Flag game for Christmas. Now she was just waiting for Percy to get back.
Annabeth's phone vibrated in her trunk.
"Percy? Is that you? Were are you?"
"Now, Annabeth, I know I promised I would be back for Christmas, but I'm stuck in traffic. There's nothing the driver can do about it. It must be an accident or something. I'm sorry, honey, but I'm going to be late - " Annabeth felt tears welling up in her eyes. She slammed the phone shut, and walked over to the window. She watched through the glass, as the sky got darker and darker. She sighed heavily, causing the window to fog up slightly.
Hey Santa
Hey Santa… Santa
I wish with all my might
Hey Santa
Hey Santa… Santa
Bring my baby home tonight
Why does it feel like it's colder than winter
Even by the fireside
My baby said he'd be home for Christmas
And now it's almost midnight
The Christmas lights up and down the street
Are such a sight to see
But all the presents by the tree
They don't mean a thing till he's with me
Against her will, the tears slid out of Annabeth's eyes. She was in love with Percy. Why couldn't he realize they were perfect for each other? The least he could have done was leave a little earlier. Suddenly the lyrics of a song pushed their way into her head. "Hey Santa… Santa," she sang quietly, wishing her prayer for Percy to be there could be heard. Was it really too much to ask of him to keep a promise of being there for Christmas?
Hey Santa
Hey Santa… Santa
I wish with all my might
Hey Santa
Hey Santa… Santa
If you hear me won't you hurry
Bring my baby tonight
I know your sleigh is full inside
But won't you stop and give my baby a ride
I'll be waiting by candle light this Christmas
The Christmas lights up and down the street
Are such a sight to see
But all the presents by the tree
They don't mean a thing
Santa please hear me
Annabeth watched as the camp was transformed from training camp to a glistening winter landscape. She saw movement, and made to grab her dagger before realizing it was only the Apollo campers. Annabeth stared out the window, not even paying attention to the world around her. Oh how she wished Percy could see this. It was amazing! But more than anything, she wished Percy were here to celebrate the holidays with her.
Hey Santa
Hey Santa… Santa
I wish with all my might
Hey Santa
Hey Santa… Santa
If you hear me won't you hurry
Bring my baby tonight
The Christmas lights up and down the street
The presents by the tree
I hear a knock, oh can it be?
My wish is staring back at me
Annabeth was shaken out of her reverie by a knock on the cabin door. She peered out the window to the door. A person stood there… no. It couldn't be. Annabeth wrenched the door open. "Percy?" she asked disbelievingly. "Hi, Annabeth. Merry Christmas," Percy smiled. "I don't understand. You called and said you were stuck in traffic…" Annabeth's voice died out as she realized it was a Christmas gift from the gods. She smiled and pulled Percy close. "Merry Christmas, Percy," she whispered, kissing him.
Hey Santa
Hey Santa… Santa
I guess you heard me tonight
Hey Santa
Hey Santa… Santa
I'm underneath the mistletoe
With my baby tonight
Sleigh ride….
It's Christmas time…..
