Hi, so this is my first fanfiction I've ever written, and I have no idea how this site works so hopefully this will go as planned. This story is set in Greece, rather than Camp Half-Blood, a day after the final battle with Gaea. Nico, Reyna, Leo, Jason, Piper, Percy, Annabeth, Hazel, and Frank all travel back home with some stops on the way. The first 2 chapters are slow, but 3 has more action. I hope you guys like it, so here goes nothing.

Annabeth

"Percy," Annabeth said, "wake up, seaweed brain". Annabeth shook his shoulders until he suddenly wrapped his toned arms around her waist and pulled her down on the bed with him.

She laid down with him with her head on his bare chest with his arms wrapped protectively around her. "come on, Percy, let's get breakfast," she whispered in his ear and he sighed. "A little longer, Wise Girl," he said, and he finally opened his eyes. His eyes Annabeth thought, Gods, they are so beautiful. A part of her agreed with him, she would love to sit with Percy all day in his bed just cuddling and talking. She knew he wouldn't mind. The more rational side to her told her to actually stick to the plan of coming in here and waking Percy up, rather than letting him seduce her to stay with him in bed all day. They had stuff to do and things-major things- to talk about.

Percy's eyes had closed again, and a small smile that Annabeth hadn't seen for a while crept slowly to his lips. "How much do you wanna bet you can't get out of this bed, wise girl?" he sleepily said with his husky morning voice. Could he hear her thoughts? They were closer than Annabeth thought they were. She sighed and his arms around her torso pulled her closer to him and he buried his head on her shoulder. In that moment, Annabeth forgot about all the stuff about the war, camp, tartarus, everything, and just rested her head on his.

"oh, Percy, I can make you do anything," she teased. She knew exactly how to get Percy out of bed and he would fall for it every time. She brushed her lips against his chest and then travels to his mouth, where she deepens the kiss. Annabeth can feel his hand cusping her face and a smile against his lips. She suddenly pulled away and rolled out of bed.

She glanced down at Percy sitting upright with an expression that closely resembled a sad puppy. His jet black hair was messy and some was hanging in his eyes. Rays of light danced on his sheets and his tanned skin and he looked like a god.

"if you don't get out of bed now, no kisses for a week." Annabeth firmly said. Percy slumped down further and frowned. He knew he would never last. At one last attempt, he looked at Annabeth with pleading green eyes; but Annabeth was not going to back down. The other seven were waiting for them in the dining place and they counted on Annabeth to wake him up.

"Fine," he mumbled. He put on a shirt and followed a grinning Annabeth to the dining place.

Once they arrived, everyone was already done with breakfast and Nico and Reyna were telling them what happened at Camp Half-Blood while they were fighting Gaea in Greece. Nico stopped talking when he saw Annabeth and Percy.

"Wow, does it usually take you that long to wake him up? took nearly 20 minutes" asked Piper. Annabeth rolled her eyes and punched Percy on his chest.

"He lost a bet." Annabeth put simply. Percy snickered beside her at the confused demigods in front of them.

"Huh, well, okay then I'm glad you decided to join us, Percy," Jason said with a light smile on his face. Percy sat down while rolling his eyes and dug into his blue pancakes.

Annabeth had figured that Percy knew she was getting little sleep at all. He knew about the nightmares and she had no doubt Percy had them too. He would never admit it to anyone but her, though. This was the first night where they had gotten a good amount of sleep, but Annabeth woke up early like her body was used to despite how exhausted she has been the last few days. Her thoughts were interrupted by Leo with a grin.

"OKAY GUYS OKAY. LISTEN UP." Leo yelled to a table of relatively quiet got Annabeth's attention. "We have been on this crazy journey, fighting crazy's ring leader, Mother Earth, and I think we need a bit of- now this will sound weird- relaxing time." That word "relaxing" sounded foreign to her at a time like this. How in the earth (no pun intended) will they pull this off?

"What do you mean by relaxing time?" asked Hazel. Annabeth was wondering the same question. Leo just stared at her like she grew a horn from across the table. Frank was beside her trying to hold his laughter in.

"Well, that is a good question, sorta. I was hoping for a collective cheer and praising of Leo for his amazing idea, but okay." Everyone stared at him waiting for him to continue and Percy just ate his pancakes and blurted out, "get on with it!"

"Okay, okay, jeez, just eat your pancakes and simmer down over there aquaman." Percy shook his head and glared at him. Everyone was wondering when Leo was getting to his "brilliant plan".

"Here it is guys: A Vacation. Here in the Mediterranean. Italy. Greece. Spain, you name it. Leo's got it covered. Actually- no- I don't have money, but I'm sure the Olympians will pitch in some money for it's favorite saviors. And don't worry- we may get home only a few days later than expected. Nothing to major, right? Besides we need it!" Leo grinned and scanned the dumbfounded faces before him.

Hope that was good, please review! That was sorta like a cliffhanger, I guess. Oh Well.
