Annabeth's Birthday
On quite a boring day Percy and Grover are lounging around in Percy's living room
"What should we do today?" Percy asked Grover.
"What are you talking about it's Annabeth's birthday"
"No it's not, that's next month"
"No it's today" Grover confirmed. Percy is now looking very panicked.
"What?! But I don't have anything planned!" Percy excalimed. Now Grover's looking really worried.
"What?! But if you don't have anything planned, then I don't have anything planned cuz every year I just stick my name on your present!"
Percy now looking very angry screams, "Excuse me?!"
"I have a busy schedule!" Grover retorts.
"Whatever! We need to buy more time!" Percy says.
At Annabeth's House
"Okay, you get Annabeth out of the house and I'll do the rest." Grover directs.
"What are you going to do?" Percy asks looking a little worried.
"You'll find out, now go!" Grover says as he pushes Percy towards the door of Annabeth's house.
Percy enters Annabeth's, very yellow, house and yells, "Annabeth!"
"Yeah?" Annabeth yells from the kitchen, she then comes out while wiping her hands off on a towel.
" I didn't eat my vegetables so now the ladybugs are plotting against me and my celebrity antique toothpick collection and they'll eat me if you don't come out of the house right now!" Percy screams extremely fast in Annabeth's face.
"Wha-!" Annabeth starts to ask Percy but is interuppted by him dragging her out of the house, when they get out of the house they see Grover flying around on a fireworks rocket.
"Dude!", Percy yelled,"You were gonna bomb her house?!"
"Like you had any better ideas!" Grover retorted.
This went on for a while.
"Hey Annabeth!" Percy says.
"What is it this time?" Annabeth asks.
"Will you smell my laptop?"
"What?!"
"Will you sniff the scent of my portable computing device?"
"Why?" Annbeth asks him while looking at him like he's a weirdo.
"Because I'm wondering what my laptop smells like and I'm suffering from allergies." Percy answers while doing the puppy pout.
Annabeth decides to just go with and says, "Fine."
Annabeth then smells the computer.
"It smells like technology." Annabeth informs Percy.
"And do you feel tired, drowsy, or any synonym of sleepy?" Percy asked.
"No."
"Man! Dude you said it work! What plan are we on now?"
"I think it's plan K!" Grover answered.
Grover and Percy said all of this while still in earshot of Annabeth and they were completely aware of this, but they stopped trying to be secretive about planning after plan G backfired.
"I better get going." Annabeth announced.
"Why?" Percy asked.
"I volunteer at the animal shelter every Tuesday remember?" Annabeth answered as Grover walked over.
"We are so stupid." Grover said.
"That's three hours of my life I'll never get back." Percy said as he sighed.
"Bye guys!" Annabeth yelled.
"Bye!" Grover and Percy replied while thinking what they were going to do next.
"Okay, How about we get her present first?" Grover asked Percy.
"How about a cat? She loves animals, that's why she volunteers at the animal shelter."
"Good idea! To Pet Smart!"
At Pet Smart
"Excuse me sir?" Percy asked some random guy at Pet Smart.
"Yeah?"
"We need a cat."
The random sighed then said, "Follow me."
Percy and Grover Followed the random dude to the cat section in a little line.
"He's the only one left." the random dude said as he pointed at this weird jumpy looking gray cat that looked half starved.
"He looks a little weird." Percy said to the random dude.
"Yeah but I heard he's real smart, advisor for the Dalai Llama or something." the random dude said.
"Then what is he doing in this dump?!"
"The Pet Smart company psychic said you'd be here and delivered him yesterday."
"Oh, okay then! I'll take him!" Percy exclaimed.
"Whatever."
Then Percy went to the checkout counter with the random guy and bought the cat for $205, pretty expensive cat.
"Can I leave him here and pick him up later?" Percy asked the random dude.
"Yeah."
"Oh, and what's your name?" Percy asked out of curiosity. (A/N: Ha ha, Curiosity killed the cat. (: )
"Dan."
"Ah."
Just then Percy finally realized Grover wasn't with him and set off to find him. After about 10 minutes of looking he finally found him growling at the bunnies.
"Dude," Percy said, "just walk away, be the bigger person."
"Fine! Hmph!"
"Next we need to go to Wal-Mart!"
At Walmart
"Hello!" Grover said to the Baker person rather perkily.
"Hi...."
"Give me a cake worth $100 plus tax!" Grover screamed and then he slammed a $100 bill on the counter and ran off but then he stopped 5 feet away and slowly turned around and in a very serious voice said, "We'll be back within the hour."
After wreaking havoc across Wal-Mart for a while Percy and Grover finally went back to the bakery to pick up the cake.
"We have arrived for the cake!" Grover announced.
"Here it is." the bakery person said as she took out this huge 5 foot by 3 foot cake.
"Hundred bucks goes a long way!" Percy exclaimed as the bakery person gave him the cake. "Wow this is heavy!"
"Let's go!" Grover cried while pointing his finger forward.
"O-ok, Let's go." Percy said as he was stumbling under the weight of the huge cake.
After About 5 minutes of Walking
"Okay now careful Percy! Carefuuuuuul!"
"You know, when somebody's trying really hard to be careful in the first place and somebody next to them won't stop telling them to be careful, it's really not very helpful, it actually
makes them want to throw the thing they're trying to be careful with at you!
"Alright, alright I'll be quiet!"
"Dude, why can't you help me carry this thing?"
"Cuz I'm gonna need both hands to carry the cat!"
"But why can't you help me befo-
"Do not question the delicate balance that is our friendship!"
"Ugh! Whatever, never mind!" Percy yelled at Grover just then, a hobo ran by and and stole the cake!
"My name is Dan! My name is Dan!" The Hobo yelled in Percy's face then ran off and threw the cake in the middle of the street in a puddle and ran off screaming my name is Dan.
"The Cake!" Grover yelled.
"What is up with people named Dan!?" Percy screamed.
"What do we do now?!" Grover yelled.
"Let's just get the cat first then figure out the rest."
"Okay then."
Grover and Percy then went over to Pet Smart.
"Hey I'm here to pick up my cat." Percy said as walked up to the counter, there was a new a guy at the counter, he looked around 50.
"Are you talking about that scrawny little gray thing they brought in yesterday?" the guy said.
"Yeah, that's it."
"That was the oldest cat I have ever seen in my life, yeah it died a couple hours ago." the guy said.
"What?!" Percy yelled, "Dude! I thought you could talk to animals how could you not know he was about to go to the big tuna fish can in the sky!"
"Well it was kinda hard to concentrate on anything when there were like twenty bunny rabbits yelling at me and giving me death glares!" Grover shot back.
"Great! Now we don't have a cake or a present and it's almost 6:30 already, Annabeth's coming back home at 7:00!" Percy yelled, "What are we gong to do now?!"
"We'll just have to put something together with... $7.63." Grover said.
Back At Annabeth's House
"This is still presentable right?" Percy asked Grover while holding up the sugar cookie and pack of sharpies they were able to salvage before coming back. "I mean sharpies are a decent present right?"
"Let me just say I'm not gonna put my name on the gift this year." Grover replied.
Percy is now banging his head against the wall.
"Hey guys I'm back!" Annabeth called from the door as she came into the house.
"Happy Birthday Annabeth!" Percy and Grover yelled.
"Brooo! Sorry we didn't have enough money left to buy a party horn." Grover apologized.
Annabeth just kinda stared at them with a shocked look on her face.
"Are you that dissapointed Annabeth?" Percy asked.
Annabeth then burst out laughing.
"Are you so dissapointed you're happy?!" Grover asked.
"No! You guys! My birthday's next month!" Annabeth said through her laughter.
"I knew it!" Percy cried!
"Oops." Grover said while looking down at his feet.
Annabeth then sighed and put one arm around Percy and Grover and said, "You guys are the best, but you're idiots."
"We may be idiots," Percy admits, "But we're idiots with great hair!" Percy then flicks his hair into the air but gets some stuck in his mouth.
