Hey Guys!

So I am putting the other story on hiatus as I suffering major writers block and need inspiration. PLEASE ADVISE ME. So as a small form of inspiration I am writing this... YAY! :D

Percy: Can we start?

No.

Percy: Now?

Nope.

Percy: What about now?

Fien

Hope you enjoy ^,-

Another headache.

Fuck.

I open my eyes and watch as the world goes from extremely fuzzy to worse. Somewhere beyond the safety of my blanket, lie my glasses but I can't be bothered to reach for them, let the world stay fuzzy for awhile. I lay on my back and stare at the ceiling which currently is nothing more than a blurry mess.

"Honey you awake?"

A sleepy voice and movement catch my attention, I turn and see an out of focus face staring at me, she is smiling at me, I think but it could always be a frown. She is reaches over me and grabs something, I realise it's my glasses and she places them gently on my face.

I go from looking through mist to clear water, Annabeth is smiling at me with a look of content on her face. I remember who I am, where I am and what I am, caught in the moment I wrap my arms around her body and press a kiss on the top of her head. We lay still for the moment and I listen to the birds outside, it seems time slows for the time, for once not because a random giant was out conquering Manhattan.

"I am now."

"Percy, we need to get up."

"I have been waiting so long for this, I think the others can wait a little longer."

"Percy, you are twenty two, time to do something with your life."

"I did. Yesterday."

"Well that's not how our life works, Frank's family are coming round."

"I know, we can wait awhile longer."

Annabeth starts squirming around in my arms I hold her laughing until she escapes and flops out the bed. I pull the cover off and sit up. She opens the curtains and a ray of sun lands on my back, its warm and encourages me to move. I stand up, heading for the shower. Behind me I hear Annabeth changing, I choose not to turn around.

After the shower I get dressed choosing jeans and my purple Camp-Half-Blood T-shirt, I hear a noise downstairs and guess Frank is round with Hazel and Cira. I open the door, walk across the landing and go do the stairs. It smells like bacon and eggs, the kitchen and living room are lit by the sun shining through the bay windows, I spot the others sat around the table and grin, adjusting my glasses I walk over and sit down.

"Good Morning Percy."

Hazel smiles at me and hands me a plate of bacon from the pile, I smile back and ruffle my hair slightly.

"Morning, how's Cira?"

A giggle come from below the table, I bend over and grin at the child staring at me. Cira is Frank and Hazel's kid, I think she resembles Hazel most, dark hair and eyes, I still argue she has Franks nose, Frank is still offended.

" She turned five today Percy! How could you forget?"

Frank looks annoyed at me and I laugh, I glace over at Annabeth who seems to be glaring at me, I reach into a bowl and pull out a present. Holding it out for all to see.

"I, the might Percy Jackson. NEVER FOGET IMPORTANT BIRTHDAYS."

Cira seemed to breath in far too fast and sprints over to me, she turns into a cheetah cub and crashes into me, licking my face. Hazel shouts something along the lines of, 'Cira what did I say about turning into animals at the table' Cira reforms and I give her the present. She runs over to Frank to show him and with great ease, he swings her onto his knee. Cira begins to rip the present open and I laugh.

It's a dagger.

"Baby! Your first celestial bronze weapon, how nice of Uncle Percy!"

"Thank you Uncle Percy."

"Why don't you start practicing with daddy?"

"Okay!"

Cira runs off to play with her new weapon, dragging Frank behind her. Little does she know its actually plastic.

I break into the bacon and start eating. Hazel starts chatting with Annabeth about monsters and the weather while Frank plays with his kid. I listen to the conversation long enough to know I couldn't keep up with it.

Headache.

Excusing myself I take a walk outside, not really knowing where I am going, it works well, usually I end up at a random demi-gods home and stand awkwardly outside till I feel I should go home. This time I find myself walking towards the forest, from the sound of it there is no capture the flag, so I walk in peace. I follow the path till it reaches the clearing and I suddenly realise where I am.

I didn't see the grave at first, the Moon-Flower had grown around the grave and hid it from sight, carefully I scrape back the plants and desperately imagine his name isn't carved there.

Shit.

How could I forget him?

I knee down next to Leo's grave and I weep.

I said I never forgot anyone's birthday and yet here I am, beside the grave of the person who saved my life, Annabeth's life, the world and I couldn't remember he would be twenty-one today. I take out my pen and roll it in my hand, the familiar weight comforts me.

"Happy Birthday Leo, you twat."

I stand up and wipe the tears from my eyes, I take a sliver coin from my pocket and flick it onto the top of the grave. A kind of offering only Leo would like, he could probably make anything with it, whether it was a laser to explode to moon or an all you can eat marshmallow machine. I smile to myself and close my eyes.

SO SAD!

IT'S GONNA GET CHEERFUL I PROMISE.
