This is my first Percy Jackson and I haven't read all of the books so please excuse if some of
the characters act out of character.
PLEASE REVIEW!
ALL ideas and thoughts are welcome.
Constructive Criticism is good for new writers.

I stared out in the distance and squinted my eyes. I was expecting Annabeth to come soon. We are going out on a date to this restaurant in Paris as our 5 year anniversary. I'm 18 now. I met Anna when I was 12 at Camp-Half Blood. I know it sounds weird but really it's not…at least not to me. Half Blood means children of gods and humans. Okay don't get too worked up. I am basically a demigod. I know it sounds awesome but seriously it's not. It's horrible because I AM NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ALIVE! But I am and it makes all the difference. My father-Poseidon (yeah yeah I know "WOW") - had a- a thing with my mother Sally Jackson. It sounds totally wrong and yes it is. My step-father Gabe Ugliano (shivers) is horrible to me and my mother. He is the reason I went to Camp-Half Blood. I sort of kind of did something bad to him. I set up this contraption that I put at the bottom of the stairs. I got so fed up with the way he treated my mother. He stepped on the top of the bucket and sprung upward through ceiling and then falling down hard. He broke a lot of bones and threatened to send me to jail or boot camp in Siberia. I told him to go to hell. He deserves to be with Hades burning forever. My Uncle burning my stepfather brings a smile to my lips. And yes Hades is my Uncle. My mother took me to Camp-Half Blood and the rest is history. For about a year I stayed there. The other kids and I trained against evil forces and ourselves.
Nock…Nock…Nock…
I got up to answer the door. I saw Anna at the door looking beautiful as ever in a midnight blue body dress. She wore heels so she is eye level with me at 5'11 and she is 5'7 or 8ish.
"Hello malady." I said smoothly. She grinned at me and linked arms with me. At the end of my long driveway was a car. I opened the door at one end and helped her in. Then I crossed the front of the car and got in at the drivers end. I drove through the winding Paris streets until I got to the restaurant I made reservations to.
"IL Mio Amor sound heavenly pardon the pun." I laughed and she smiled satisfied. At the desk I gave the name Jackson and they took me to a table for two-and get this it had candles, roses (red), and red wine! I pulled out Anna's chair first then sat down.
"What a gentleman Percy." Anna said.
"Yes Percy is quite the gentleman." That voice sounded so familiar. I looked up and gasped.
"Adrienne?"
"Yes. Could you forget that quickly?" She laughed.
"No no how could I forget." I was in a nightmare. My girlfriend of about 5 years and my…my…
"And may I ask who are you?" Anna asked the dreadful question.
"I am…" Adrienne looked at me and saw me mouth 'friends', "Percy's a really good friend."
"Oh when did you meet?" I paused. We couldn't tell her.
"Um we met during Christmas like 2 years ago."
"Was that the Christmas you didn't come visit me?" Anna asked.
"Um yeah."
"Oh that's cool."
"So what would you like to order?"
When we finished I led Anna out to take a walk. We walked down to the Eiffel Tower even though I knew it was crony. Almost every romantic movie in Paris had the couple on the Eiffel Tower. So I just made it so that we got to go on the Eiffel tower.
"Very cliché nice I like it."
"Well thanks malady." We climbed up to the top and just gazed at the view.
"The movies don't do this view justice."
"I understand Anna. It's almost as good as a view from the sky"
"Almost…" And we laughed. I almost forget about Adrienne. Almost.
"What's with the Adrienne thing?" Anna asked. Oh the dreaded question.
"What do you mean? We're just friends.
"Yeah I know but it seemed like there was more between you guys."
"Do you suspect me of CHEATING?" I asked astonished that she came to this conclusion.
"No no Percy."
"Then what could you mean"
"I mean do you have a close relationship."
"Of some sorts."
"Oh that's all I wanted to know. I know it's hard for you to remain faithful sometimes when we are far away a lot."
"No-"
"Yes it is because you are a guy. And I really don't mind if you have a fling once in a while because it's natural."
"Really! You sure Anna!"
"Yes I'm sure you silly boy."
"Boy? Now I'm hurt."
"I'm sure you are. Okayyyy MAN!" She punched my arm and I held her face and kissed her long and hard. I tried to banish all thoughts of other woman aka Adrienne.
A week later I relocated to Florida. I liked Paris but I didn't want to be in the same city as Adrienne because it might temp me. I go to Miami because
It's close to water (of course who is my father) and
It's a big city
Annabeth decided to take a trip to California. She wants to do some star spotting and I declined her invitation. I mean what 17 year old boy wants to go see some celebrities who will either cuss me out or call security. Come to think of it they'll probably do both…
Authors Note: So what did you think and be honest. Adrienne is someone Percy met but more on her later. I don't want to give anything away.
