'So, Denial you think that if I put the pillars surrounding the court yard it will not be too much even with them in the main market area and the throne room?' I asked as looked up from the plans in front of us on the table.

'Yes sister, I do believe that to be the case, although if I'm not mistaken there are 15 statues of Lord Ares in the court yard alone.' he said stating as a matter of fact.

'What, no I didn't!' i said looking at him shock but not looking at the designs knowing that he probable right.

'Um, Annabeth check your blue prints' I looked down and turned the resist shade of red 'Shit!' I said

Please don't let him see this he would never let me forget it

'What are you thinking about my little architect? Ares said as he popped in right behind me scaring the Hades out of me

'Nothing, absolutely nothing, why do you ask, Ares? Yeah like he going to believe that

'Well that's a lie if I were to hear one' Yep knew it, Think Annabeth you're the daughter of Athena, your good at this

'I was just thinking about my designs for Olympus and I found a mistake that's all' please drop it, please, please drop it.

'A daughter of Athena making a mistake. Has something been on your mind?' Ares said teasingly as he walked closer to me evading my personal space to the point were it felt like we were breathing each others air

'No' I said trying to evade the question with a simple answer.

'Alright, what mistake did you make?' he said as he lent in closer

Just tell him, no don't tell him he'll never let you forget it, Yet, if you don't tell him he won't stop asking. Just tell him!

'I may have put a 1-10 ratio of statues in your favor all throughout Olympus.' i said as i walked to the other side of the table were by brother was still standing in both shock and fear.

'I'm sorry what did you just say' Ares said with mocking shock and a teasing expression.

'I said that I put ten times as many statues of you then any other Olympian, Ok fine I can't stop thinking about you' Oh shit why did I say that.

'Oh you've been thinking about me have you' Ares said leaning over the table.

Jackass!

'Annabeth, I know I've already asked this but do you want to move to Olympus with me?' why does he keep asking? What is so important that I have to be on Olympus

'I still don't know, ok yeah I'm thinking about you a lot and we do have fun together but we don't talk that much'

He moved to take a seat on my bed

'What's there to talk about sweaty?' he asked as i through a get the hell out look at my brother before he scampered out of the room.

'Other then the obvious what are your likes and dislikes' i said still standing at the table not trusting myself to get close to him

Should I sit or lean on the desk that I was working while he replies

'What do you mean obvious?' he said

'You're the god of war its pretty explanatory what I mean by obvious' I said not sure if hes acting or if hes just being an idiot

'Ah, you mean Battle training, Physical training, Weapons, War'

'Yeah like I said obvious, so what non-obvious things do you like?' I said trying to get some information out of him, I picked up my drink which was on the table as he replied

'Well star gazing, sunsets and feisty woman in my bed, you mean stuff like that?'

I almost spat my drink at him when he said that last one and he noticed it to, the Jackass

I looked at him to see if he was lying but I dint fine one sign that he was 'I take it you're not kidding than'

'You know me well enough to know I don't kid' yeah and we both know that's a lie

'Good point Ares, and what the hell I hear Olympus is nice this time of year.' I said sarcastically

'I need to talk to Percy and your mother before we leave.' Ares said as he moved to leave, he looked back at me and that when it was relived that he believes i'm being serious.
