I woke up today in a good mood. Today is going to be a good day. I'm going to spend it hanging out with Annabeth, Nico, Juniper, Grover, and most of all Thalia was going to visit. We haven't seen her sense we were in Olympus, the day the war ended. Annabeth was so excited and so was Nico. I was just hoping that we wouldn't fight. I got out of bed, took a shower, got dressed, and then went to meet Annabeth and Nico at the sword arena.
"Finally!" Annabeth said when I got there.
"Sorry, you know I'm always late." I told them.
"Yeah Annabeth you should of expected that." Nico said.
"Haha yeah!" I added.
"Your both idiots." She told us.
"That's why you like me." I said.
"I'm crazy for liking you." She told me.
"Awh you hurt my feelings." I whined.
"Awh sorry little Percy bear." She pinched my cheek.
"It's ok Anna banana."
"Don't ever call me that again." She said.
"Haha ok."
"Where's Grover and juniper?" I asked.
"They're not here yet." Nico answered.
"And you were complaining that I wasn't here." I told Annabeth.
"Well I wanted to see my boyfriend." She said.
"Awh I wanted to see you too."
I grabbed her by the waste and pulled her towards me.
"Ew I don't want to see that. Thank gosh here comes Grover and Juniper." Nico said.
I let go of Annabeth.
"You know Nico you really need to get a girlfriend." I told him.
He rolled his eyes at me. Grover and juniper came jogging up the hill.
"Sorry were late!" Grover panted.
"It's ok." Annabeth said.
"Oh it's ok for them to be late but not me?" I told her.
"Just drop it!" Nico complained.
"Someone's grouchy." I mumbled.
Just then a huge flash came from the forest. We all turned and saw a bunch of young girls coming from the forest dressed in a bunch of silver.
It was the hunters. Why were all of them here? Thalia was leading them towards us. She had a big smile on her face but the others had a serious face on.
"Annabeth!" Thalia squealed.
She ran towards her and gave her a huge hug.
"It's so great to see you." I heard Annabeth tell her.
"It's nice to see you too."
She went over to Grover and gave him a hug. Then she went over to Nico she hesitated for a moment but then hugged him. Their hug lasted longer than a normal one does. Hmm? Then she came over to me.
"Nice to see you seaweed brain." She told me as she gave me a hug.
"Nice to see you too." I mumbled.
"You could sound a little bit more enthusiastic." She told me with a grin.
"Haha sorry, it's the morning." I told her.
She went back over to Annabeth and put her arm over her shoulder.
"So Thalia why are the hunters here?" Juniper asked while giving all the girls a dirty look.
"Well when I told Artemis I was going here she thought it would be the perfect time for her to go on vacation, so she sent everyone here." She said to us. Then looked towards the girls. "Go to the Artemis Cabin, unpack and stuff. Bella go to the big house and inform Chiron that we will be staying here."
They all nodded then walked away. I saw all the campers glare as they walked by.
"So what are we going to do?" Nico asked. He seemed to be in a better mood.
"Swimming!" I said, hopefully.
Everyone was pondering this.
"Come on guys it's super hot out!" I tried convincing them.
"I guess we could." Annabeth said.
"Yay!"
"Is it ok with you Thalia?" Annabeth asked her.
"Yeah! Let's go get dressed Annabeth, We'll meet you guys by the shore." Thalia told us.
"Come on Juniper." Annabeth told her.
"See you." Grover told juniper and gave her a kiss before she headed off.
"Let's go to our cabins." I told them.
"Percy, I don't have any swimming trunks, can I borrow a pair?" Grover asked me as we walked towards my cabin.
"Yeah sure."
"I'll meet you guys back here." Nico told us.
"Ok."
We walked into an empty cabin. I went over to my trunk and pulled out two pair of swimming trunks. I threw a pair over to Grover. I went in the bathroom to change. When I came back out Grover was dressed to. He looked weird in shorts, I wonder if he can actually go swimming.
"Ready?" I asked him.
"Yup."
We walked out the cabin, Nico was waiting outside. He was wearing black swimming trunks.
We got to the shore before they did. They arrived five minutes after us.
"Now look who's late." I told Annabeth.
"Haha I hope this will make up for it." She walked over to me and pulled my head down to hers.
"It does." I told her when she let go.
Thalia was standing next to Grover and Juniper in her bathing suit. Juniper was also in a bathing suit. Nico was standing off to the side as usual. He was never in the center of things.
"Why's everyone standing around? Let's go swimming!" I hollered.
I picked up Annabeth and threw her over my shoulder and ran for the shore.
"Put me down Percy!" she screamed and giggled at the same time.
"Not a chance!"
I felt the water splash onto my feet and felt stronger right away. I threw Annabeth into the waves.
"Percy she's going to kill you for that." I heard Thalia say from beside me.
"Haha I no."
Annabeth staggered out of the waves, her hair hanging in her face, she had an angry look and was staring me down.
"Uh I think I'm just going to go this way." I said and started going the opposite direction of Annabeth.
"That's right Percy you better run!" I heard Annabeth scream.
For the next hour we all swam, splashed each other, my splashes were more like waves. Annabeth tried drowning me but it didn't work. Nico was throwing Thalia into the water; they talked and touched each other a lot. Grover and Juniper were in their own world.
"That was really fun." Thalia said as we made our way back to the cabins.
"Yeah it was, I wish we could hang out longer." Annabeth told her.
"I know but I have to get back to the girls. I'll see you at dinner then we'll most likely have capture the flag." Thalia said.
"You're going down." I said.
"We'll see." She smirked then turned towards the Artemis cabin.
"See you guys later then." I said.
Annabeth gave me a kiss then jogged towards her cabin.
"See yah Perce!" Grover hollered as he walked away.
"See yah G-man!"
"My siblings are annoying the hell out of me, can I chill with you?" Nico asked.
"Sure but I don't know If mine are any better."
Me and Nico played Xbox 360 for a couple hours I think. I don't know time goes by so fast when you play games. And this wasn't just any game it was the new Halo Reach! Such an awesome game! Wow I sound like a nerd.
"So Nico what's been going on with you and Thalia?" I asked him while we played.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"You guys were all touchy touchy at the beach and I saw how you two hugged. Do you like her?"
"No! Percy she's a hunter! I uh I like some one else." He told me.
"Oh who?" I asked.
I was sure he liked Thalia, oh well.
"Um Hannah."
"You me Aphrodite's daughter?" I asked.
"Yeah."
"Oh I'll have to hook you two up then." I said.
"Uh yeah."
I'm not sure how much longer we played. I just wanted capture the flag to come so we could finally beat the hunters. And we will this time.
