Ok guys so this is my first ever Fanfiction I'm sorry if its a bit cliché but I just wanted to try writing something that had been done before so that I could get ideas from them if I had to and so I decided to do a Percy goes to the country side for the summer as a punishment. I have tried to make this my own and I hope you enjoy reading it. If you don't then feel free to stop reading or you could just tell me how to make it better through reviews and PM. Also just letting you know that I am slightly dyslectic and though I have no problem reading I sometimes have trouble putting what's in my head onto paper and I also can't spell very well sometimes so there will be grammatical errors through out the chapters just go with it and interoperate it how you will, you can blame me though it is not technical my fault.
Enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. :)
Percy's P.O.V
The last day of school had just finished meaning that summer vacation had just started when I was invited to a party on the beach in Montauk. I was invited by Calypso, the person on whom I had had a crush on since fifth grade, so of course I agreed though I said that he would have to check with my mum first. So this was how it came to be that I walked in the front door to their apartment calling "Mum, I'm home." I smelt cookies and so he waked into the kitchen to find my mum wearing a flowery apron and removing a tray of chocolate chip cookies from the oven and dumping it on the counter. She turned around and smiled at him her eyes sparkling with warmth and love.
I took a cookie from the tray and bit into it, feeling the gooey chips squish between my teeth. Mum smiled and asked how the last day of school was, I replied, saying that it was good but the teachers had made it clear that I wouldn't like my report card much. I looked nervously at my mum when I said this because she had told me on winter break that if my grades didn't pick up then she would send me off to live with my cousins in the country side for the summer so that I could learn some responsibility. She frowned when I said this pursing her lips and looking at me with worry. With that look I cringed and couldn't help but feel stupid for saying this before asking her permission to be to the party. I decided to take my chances and I smiled hopefully looking at her with pleading eyes, "so anyway," I said "I was asked to go to a party at Montauk today…" my mother's lips twitched up at the hopeful not in my voice.
"Oh yeah? By who?" she asked smiling. She knew full well about my crush on Calypso and knew by the tone in my voice that it was her that had asked me. I knew she wouldn't let it go until I told her the truth.
Blushing I muttered "Calypso" under my breath my face turning beet red. I glanced up to see my mother smiling so I continued with my question "… and I was wondering if I could go?" mum gave me a knowing smile and I felt my blush return in full force. Mum thought for a second and then said "sure honey but with two conditions."
I sighed and then gestured for her to continue with the conditions smiling she said, "first NO alcohol or drugs are to be consumed by you and second, you have a curfew of midnight and if you want to stay out latter than that you have to call me first"
I nodded and smiled happily those are things that I do anyway so they shouldn't be too hard this time around. I agreed and went to call Calypso and tell her that I could come. She said she'd pick me up around 4 and we could go down to the beach together. This filled my hart with hope. Hope that she could actually like me back. I agreed to this and hart racing looked at the clock, it was already 3 o'clock I had an hour to get ready before she arrived so I took a shower letting the hot water calm down my racing hart, once it had resumed its normal pace I got out and changed into some nicer looking clothes then the ones I had on, it was just a see green t-shirt and deep blue swim trunks, it wasn't much but they were comfortable and the shirt matched my eyes so I thought that maybe I might actually look good for once. After this I stood in front of the mirror and tried to comb my unruly black hair but gave up after it just ended up looking worse that it usually was. I shook my head to make my hair go back to the way it was (sticking up in all directions), I thought about putting on some cologne but then I remembered that Calypso had once told me that she licked the way I smelt like the sea, so I thought better of it. I looked at the clock that hung on my bedroom wall and realised it was ten to four and that I should probably go down and wait for her so that my mum didn't embarrass me.
I made my way into the living room and heard a knock on the door and heard my mother open it say "you must be Calypso!" "Yeah" I heard her reply anxious. I walked into the hall and just in time to stop mum from asking Calypso if she wanted to come in, I had to stop that happening because all she would do is talk about my child hood and how cute I looked as a baby, she would also probably show her my baby pictures, in which I was usually naked. My mum had a problem with taking pictures of me in clothes when I was little.
Seeing me walk into the hall Calypso smiles at me and asked "are you ready?"
"Of course I am, I'm a guy, it doesn't take me three hours to get ready for a beach party" I replied smiling as well to take the sting out of my words. My mother slapped my shoulder looking like she was going to start lecturing me about how to treat a lady properly. I grimaced and decided that it was time to go.
"Let's go" I said to Calypso

At The party I saw that the entire year had been invited and that this was obviously supposed to be some sort of end of year break up sort of thing. I met up with my friends Grover Underwood who was a total environmentalist, Travis and Connor Stoll who were the pranksters of the school, Nico and Bianca a brother and sister though the only trait they shared was their dark brown eyes and silky black hair they are also my cousins. We were the misfits of the school not really fitting into the normal social groups such as the nerds or popular group. Because of this we kind of made our own group. Most of us could have been popular, me especially me as I was continually being told by girls that I was hot, I was on the swim team and I was fairly will muscled because of it. I had an eight pack and my pec's could have been mistaken for breasts under my shirt and if I didn't have to swim with no shirt I would probably be picked on because of it but since I started swimming the seats were continuously filled with screaming fans whenever there was a meet on and most of those fans were girls. With all of this going for me I could have been really popular with a new girlfriend every other week, but I just wasn't that sort of guy. Whenever a girl threw herself at me I let her down easy saying that I wasn't interested because I was focusing on my studies or some similar sort of excuse, the truth was though that I was trying to work up the courage to ask Calypso out.
I was thinking this when Grover waved his hand in front of my face and whispered "you've got that look on your face that means that your thinking about Calypso"
"Shut up" I said "I was not, and I do not have a thinking-about-Calypso look"
"Yeah you do man" Nico joined in the conversation "you go all still then your eyes glaze over with your mouth hanging open and you start blushing"
"The Stoll's grinned at each other then looked at me and Connor asked "would you like to see?"
I groaned at the thought that they had proof of me daydreaming about Calypso but agreed because I wanted to see how bad it was. Travis took out his phone and showed me a picture of me with a red face with a dreamy look. I groaned again louder this time as the others burst into laughter I asked the Stoll's "who else has seen this?"
"Um about 25K people on Facebook, Instagram and Tumblr combined" Conner said smiling.
"WHAT!" I yelled
They looked at me gleefully before running away and disappearing into the crowd, I scowled and turned to my friends who immediately stopped laughing at the expression on my face.
"I don't see why you don't just ask her out man" said Grover "what's the worst she could do? Say no?"
"No the worst she could do is say no then laugh in my face"
"Whatever man I still think you should do it"
"Ok I will when I find her"
"Then go and look for her before I get the Stoll's to do it for you" he said smirking
"Fine" I grumbled as I walked away

When I found Calypso my blood froze and I felt anger boil up from my stomach. I stood frozen for ages looking at her. This all happened because she was standing there pushed up against a tree by Malcom, kissing him passionately. At this point they broke apart and gasped for air and Calypso glanced around and caught sight of me standing there staring at them a hurt expression on my face. She broke away from Malcom and started towards me looking like she wanted to explain something but I couldn't take it and I ran. I ran straight through the party without seeing anything around me as I ran I heard Calypso call after me, but I could guess from the expression in her face when she saw me standing there frozen that she knew how I felt about her and that she didn't share my feelings for her. The image of them kissing was imprinted on my brain and I saw it whenever I closed my eyes. As I ran away from the party I heard someone following me and I turned around ready to hit the person but then I realised it was Grover and that he had a sympathetic expression on his face.
He court up to me and gave me a brief hug not caring that we were both guys and that it was weird, he was my best friend and he actually cared. He told me he would take me home, I nodded numbly and followed him to his car, climbing into the passenger side.
When we got to my apartment building he helped me up the stairs to my apartment and unlocked the door with my keys, when she heard the door open my mum walked round the corner with an angry expression and a piece of paper in her hand that I recognised as a report card. She was about to start yelling at me when she saw my devastated expression and that Grover was standing next to me. Her expression softened and she looked at Grover with a question in her eyes. "He court Calypso making out with Malcom" he explained. My mother got a look of understanding in g=her eyes and said, "Take him to his room, I'll talk to him in the morning" Grover nodded and started towards my room.
When we got there, he laid me down on my bed and I fell asleep still fully clothed and I dreamed that I got to sucker punch Malcom in the face.
Ok so I know it is short but as this is my first FF go easy on me and don't judge to harshly they will continue to be about this long until I get into the flow of writing. Also as I am Australian I will spell things such as Mom as Mum don't kill me over it its only habit nothing against the way the rest of the world spells things
Piece Out :)
