A/N: So, because today is AUGUST 18, I decided to do a short birthday story. Happy 18th Percy!This will be the first in a collection of PJatO one-shots, just so you know. :)

Percy Jackson was celebrating his eighteenth birthday with his parents, Annabeth, Rachel, Nico, Thalia and Grover. Everyone was over at his house, hanging out, having fun, talking and laughing.
"I can't believe it," Annabeth told him, "I can still remember when I first met you."
"Same," Rachel added, "You were trying to convince me that your sword was a pen." Everyone laughed at Rachel's comment.
"Yeah, that trip to Hoover Dam was just hilarious," Grover added.
"We kept on telling Zoe we wanted some dam French fries and she didn't get it at all," Thalia said.
"What do you expect from a girl that old?" Nico asked.
Then, all of the lights went out and all of them started to look around suspiciously. Sally quickly emerged from the kitchen with Paul holding a massive blue birthday cake with 18 candles, and from behind them, Percy could see Posiedon standing there, beaming at him. He didn't expect him to come, and was even more shocked when the 12 other major Olympian gods followed him out of the kitchen.
Percy was smiling like crazy, and his mom and Paul placed the cake in front of him. As the bunch was singing happy birthday, Annabeth looked at him, and kissed him in the candlelight. He heard a click and knew that his mom had just snapped a picture of the two of them, but that was okay, because he wanted to remember this moment forever. When everyone had stopped singing, he closed his eyes to make a wish, but he didn't know what to wish for.
Because everything he wanted was right here.
Like it? R&R if you want. :)
