Summary
In the weeks after the Battle of Half-Blood Hill (as the Ares kids dubbed it), Annabeth would only remember the aftermath in sensory snapshots, all the details lost to the static of shock. But she remembered the pain of desperation to get to Percy and Thalia overwhelming and overriding everything else. And when she finally did get a moment with them as they lay unconscious in the infirmary, she was terrified by how much she cared. Years worth of defenses of brick and barbed wire built around her heart had crumbled, and she hated how vulnerable she felt. So for the three days Percy is unconscious, she does her best to avoid him. She told herself its boundaries. It was healthy. It's not until Clarisse confronts her about running away that she finally reconsiders her perspective. The girls have a heart to heart about the realities of having friendships as demigods while sparring, and Annabeth has a revelation.
