An Invitation and a Choice

Percy could finally say that her life was perfect. She was immortal, married for Apollo the god of sun, truth, light etc. etc. Shortly after her honey moon in Greece, she was declared goddess of tides, hurricanes and sun rays, so she could always be with her husband as he insisted. She lived in a beautiful house on Olympus with her beloved and had everything she wanted. Well, almost everything. There was only one thing that was missing. A child was the thing she wanted most. A little baby boy or girl, product of hers and Apollo's love. When she shared her thoughts with her husband, he always hugged her, assuring her that they had the eternity and will be blessed with a child when the time came. She always placed a fake smile and agreed with him, but inside her heart was weeping. Some times she would close her eyes and imagine her son or daughter. Would they have their father's hair and her eyes? Or the other way round? Would they have Apollo's crooked smile she loved so much? It didn't matter. They would be beautiful in her eyes no matter of what.

"Honey, are you alright?" Her mother asked pulling her out of her thoughts. Right now, Percy was in her parents' apartment to visit her mother and Paul who she hadn't seen in almost a year. The girl looked up at her mum offering a small smile. "Sorry, mom, I spaced out." Sally nodded understandingly, reading her daughter's expression. "You were telling me about your father's invitation." A few days earlier her father had IM-ed her asking her if she wanted to go to his underwater palace for a few days. She still hadn't told Apollo because, well, she wasn't sure if she wanted to go. Of course she wanted to visit her dad and Tyson but Poseidon's family was the problem. The last time she visited she was left with the impression that both Amphitrite and Triton hated her and she didn't know if this was still the same now that she was a goddess. She wasn't sure if she wanted to take the risk of putting up with a bitter wife and a jealous son.

"You should go, Percy." Her mother said softly, putting her hand over Percy's. "You have no reason to fear Amphitrite. You have done nothing wrong. If there is one who has done a mistake it's me and your father but not you." The girl started shaking her head before Sally had even finished her sentence. "No, mom, don't say that. No one has done anything wrong." She sighed. "But I must admit I understand her. Being a wife of a god isn't easy. Especially if he is an unfaithful Olympian."

Sally frowned. "Had Apollo done something?" Percy blinked a few times in surprise. "Oh, no, he hasn't." Actually she was quiet surprised by it but mostly pleased. He hadn't been with another woman for the three years they were married. He spent every night in their bed, kissing, hugging, loving her and her only. It pleased her to know that he valued her enough to drop the sleeping around attitude.

"I'm glad." The older woman smiled. "He is a good guy and he loves you. Why isn't he here, by the way?" Sally was practically in love with her son in law. He was gentleman, always polite, clever, funny and extremely in love with her daughter. That was enough to make her like him. And the one she liked even more was Apollo's mother. Thankfully they had gotten on wonderfully, so the young couple didn't have to worry about the relationships between their parents.

"Oh, he's actually busy. Zeus sent him to finish some task and I decided to take a day off and come to visit you. But he asked me to tell you that he's sorry for not being able to come."

Her mother opened her mouth to say something when Paul walked in, obviously coming back from work. He was wearing a shirt and a suit jacket but somehow he still looked like a male model. "Ah, how are my favorite girls?" He leant down to kiss both of them on the cheeks.

"We're alright. Percy was just explaining me why Apollo couldn't come with her."

Percy spent most of the day with her parents, before deciding to pay a visit to the Camp and her friends. Instead of just appearing there in all god-like manner, she decided to use her car so she would attract less attention. She parked her car and got out, walking over the familiar hill. She stopped to pet the head of the sleeping dragon Peleus, before continuing her way. Camp Half- Blood was just as she remembered it, lively and, in her eyes, simply beautiful. To admit to herself, she missed the place. She missed the people, the camp fire, her cabin, Chiron and, that was hard to admit, but she missed even Mr D and his constantly wronging her name.

Almost cautiously, the new goddess stepped closer, praying that the campers didn't act differently towards her. But they did, of course they did. She was a goddess now, she had to be respected. The campers bowed as she passed, making her roll her eyes. Even Chiron gave a small bow as he saw. "Lady Persephone." He greeted. "What do we owe the pleasure?"

Percy shook her head slightly, her face splitting in a smile. "Don't call me that. I'm just plain old Percy." He nodded, smiling too. "And no bowing." She added that loud enough so everyone could hear. Some of the demigods, her old friends looked relieved.

"I just came to see you. Do you know where Annabeth and Thalia are?" As her best friends were too old to come back as campers, Chiron had asked them to come and teach the younger demigods. Annabeth had taken up the Ancient Greek and Thalia sword fighting. Positions, that Percy thought suited both of them perfectly. Although secretly she knew that if she had stayed mortal, Chiron would have asked her to teach sword fighting as she was the best sword fighter in centuries. But she was happy with her friends, even a bit jealous that they could return to Camp.

"Oh, I'm not sure Percy. Why don't you go look for them?"

She did. The first place she decided to check was the sword fighting arena. The moment she stepped onto it there was a loud bark and all heads turned into her direction. With the corner of her eye she noticed Thalia and Nico, but right now Percy's eyes were glued to the hell hound running towards her. "Mrs O'Leary!" The huge dog jumped on her, successfully pushing her on the ground and licking her face. The girl couldn't help but giggle, now realizing how much she had missed her pet. "I'm happy to see you too, girl. I wish I could take you to Olympus with me."

"So, the goddess decided to bless us with her presence." She heard a slightly sarcastic voice behind her. Standing up she rolled her eyes and went to hug her best friend. "Oh come on, Thals, you know I always have time for you guys." She grinned and the other girl grinned, too. "Do you have time for a spar?" The daughter of Zeus asked and Percy made a face. "Oh, come on! Only you and me. Just like the old times. Or are you afraid to get your godly butt kicked?" Percy snorted. "Huh, like you would be able to kick my butt."

"Wanna try?" Thalie offered. The other girl just shook her head with a smile and took Riptide out of her pocket, getting into a proper position to fight. Thankfully she was wearing a T-shirt and shorts, both comfortable enough to fight in.

She didn't attack, waiting for her friend's first move. Everyone in the arena had stoped fighting and had gathered around to watch. Thalia, clearly impatient, swung her sword but Percy pared the move. It felt good to be there again, with a sword in her hand. It made her feel almost normal again. They fought like that for a while, hitting and defending, going back at forth, none of them using some special moves to take the other one down. Poseidon's daughter felt her instincts kick in. She started fight more furiously pushing in for the win. Thalia grinned. Percy had to admit her friend had improved her fighting, but she was still better. The locked swords again and an idea flashed in the goddess' mind. Using the first move Luke had told her, she twisted the sword, putting all of her weight on it. A surprised expression dawned on the other girl's face as the sword was taken out of her hand. Percy caught it easily and pointed both of the weapons at Thalia's neck. "I win." She announce with a smug smile on her face. The other girl grinned slightly and Percy gave her her sword back.

"I see you haven't lost the moves." "I told you so." "Come, let's find Annabeth."

Some time and a lot of laugh later the girls were sitting on the beach, watching the sunset. It was beautiful and Percy knew that Apollo was making sure to give them a great performance. Perct sighed happily as the sun disappeared bellow the horizon and lied back on the sand.

"So, Perce," Annabeth asked after a while. "Do you regret your decision of becoming a goddess?"

Persephone bit her lip, gazing at the darkened sky. Did she regret it? Yes, she complained a lot about the things she couldn't do, but was it really that bad? Moments flashed before her eyes. Moments with Apollo, moments with her dad. She had sacrificed a lot when she accepted immortality but didn't she earn more? "No." She found herself finally whispering. "No I don't regret it. I miss my family and I miss the Camp and you, but-" She hesitated for a second. "There are a lot of good things about the godhood. I spend more time with my dad. And, of course, Apollo. If I had the same choice before me now, I would choose the same."

"I'm happy for you Percy." "Plus," Percy added with a smile. "I'm married to the hottest man ever lived. My life can't be that bad now, can it?"

"I'm happy you think so, love." A voice said somewhere behind them. The girl's heads snapped in his direction and Percy blushed.

"Apollo," She breathed out surprised. "You were not supposed to hear that."

He smiled crookedly showing a pair of impossibly white teeth. "Oh don't be like that, darling. It was like music to my ears to hear it come out your mouth." His wife just rolled her eyes and huffed, making him raise his eyebrows innocently. "What? I don't get a kiss?" "No." The girl answered with fake anger in her voice. The sun god frowned slightly and went to sit behind her. He leant in and placed a kiss to the base of her neck, which she pretended to ignore. He then kissed a little higher on her neck and so on until he reached her face. "Are you angry at me?" He murmured against the skin of her cheek. "I'm sorry. Please don't be angry." She couldn't help but smile, turning her head to give him a peck on the lips. Of course, this didn't happen because he buried his hand in her hair and pulled her in for a long, passionate kiss. "Do you want to go home now?" He helped her stand up to her feet and she looked around suddenly remembering her friends. But the beach was empty.

"They left to give us some privacy." Apollo explained seeing her expression. "Let's go."

Later, they were cuddling on the couch in their house on Olympus. Some movie was playing on the huge plasma before them but no one paid attention to it. "My dad IM-ed me yesterday." Percy started casually. "He invited me to stay with him for a while." She felt Apollo stiffen behind her but he hid it. "Are you going?" He asked. "I don't know. Should I go?" "You should." The sun god answered surprising her. "You should spend some time with your dad too, not only with me."

"But I'll miss you." She whined, kissing him lightly. "Even only for a week." "A week?" He frowned.

"Well, originally he invited me for longer but I said that if I go it will be for a week most."

"Then go. Don't let Amphitrite or Triton stop you." He said seriously. "How-?" She asked, no ever finishing her question. He chuckled but it didn't sound happy or cheerful. "I know you well enough, Percy, to say what worries you. And unfortunately I know my relatives quite well, too."

"I will go then." She said smiling. "Thank you."

"Are you going to call your dad?" Apollo asked, pulling his hands away so she could stand up if she wanted. But she just shook her head and buried it in his chest. "Mmmm, not yet."

With a smile, he pulled her closer and kissed her hair. "I love you so, so much."

"I love you, too."
