Here is another chapter, I hope you like it :)
Annabeth sat by the lake, which glistened blue in the sunlight. She watched as the trees on the other side of the lake rustled with the light breeze and she smiled as the water rippled and a shiny cerulean blue tail popped out of the water for just a moment before splashing back down. Suddenly a mop of black hair appeared and then Percy. He folded his arms out on the pavement by the side of the lake and his tail flicked out in the water behind him.
Annabeth beamed at him. She was really glad to see him. She crossed her legs and put her hands over Percy's and then went in for a kiss. She decided it would be more comfortable to lay on her stomach in front of the lake so she did and then they were kissing again. She felt Percy's hands intertwine into her blonde curls as they kissed and she ran her fingers up Percy's arms to rest on his neck. He was smiling at her when they pulled apart.
"I've missed you." She told him with a love filled smile.
"I've missed you too, I love you." He replied., his sea green eyes sparkling. Annabeth sometimes wished either she was a mermaid or he was a human so they could actually spend their lives together like a normal couple, instead of only seeing each other like this, separated by the water.
"Is there any way we can be together?" She sighed. "I mean, properly, forever, not like this." She explained.
Percy sighed too and splashed his tail into the water in annoyance at the world. "I don't know. I'd have to speak to my father, or a witch or warlock - but magic costs a lot and sometimes more than money." Percy warned.
Suddenly Annabeth got an idea. She grabbed Percy's hand. "What about Nico di Angelo, isn't he a warlock?" She asked excitedly.
Percy sighed again. "I don't know if he'd help us, I haven't seen him in a while and it's not like i can go find him" Percy said gesturing to his tail.
"I can go and find him. I'll bring him here, Percy, we could be together, he could help us. He could tell us what to do!" Annabeth excitedly exclaimed gripping Percy's arm a little too hard.
"If you can find him, and he agrees to help. . ." Percy mused, then he smiled brightly, that troublemaker smile he knew Annabeth loved. "We could really make this work Annabeth." He leaned up and kissed her, his full torso coming out of the water so that Annabeth could just see where his skin joined his scales. She ghosted her fingers over that area of his stomach and he shivered. "I love you." He whispered.
"I love you too." Annabeth said into the kiss.
