Hey sorry I'm a little late updating, I'm working on a slightly longer story with more characters involved. That could be up in the next week or so but in the meantime I hope you enjoy this short little fic. Thx for reading !
Annabeth watched the barbecue flames flickering, it was nearing the summer and it was going to be the most relaxing one of her life. Hopefully. Though It wouldn't be that hard to beat her other summers as they had mostly consisted of almost dying and endless quests which was although an experience to say the least, not very relaxing . Blinking she realised she had suddenly let her mind drift from their picnic. It was the mid June and her and Percy had gone for a BBQ with calypso and Leo. Who had recently come back from a very nice tour of modern New York. Annabeth glanced at her friend. She admired her strength, it must be so daunting to get used to the modern world after being trapped on a remote island for hundreds of years and calypso had taken it all very calmly according to Leo. However she doubted his definition of calm was completely accurate as leo was the most ADHD demigod she knew. To be honest she was surprised calypso even liked her. I mean she was the reason calypso wasn't with Percy, it was as if the stunning goddess could hear her thoughts. The brunette leaned over to Annabeth and quietly whispered " I'm glad I didn't end up with Percy" Annabeth chuckled
"So am I " Calypso grinned at her and Annabeth sighed in relief "thank the gods picnics are timeless" she joked. Gesturing to their spread. Annabeth nodded in agreement but her friend noticed that she was still distracted. " so next weeks the unity ball" she began. Annabeth groaned and rose to her feet.
"Don't remind me !" Calypso giggled at her face and Annabeth shot her a glare "stop, your as bad a piper "she moaned. At this calypso snorted. "I seriously doubt that" . Piper although low-key for a daughter of Aphrodite had got more than a little excited about the upcoming ball and was hurriedly making preparations for the romans arrival with Annabeths assistance. It was halirous to see piper in such a state as she normally hated that sort of thing but Annabeth Knew she was eager to impress her boyfriends camp. "Me and Percy are actually going to camp Jupiter after the ball" calypso looked surprised
"Oh why?"
"Well me and Percy are going apartment hunting there, since we're both going to collage in the area we thought we could get a place to share, ya know save money " her friend smirked
"Ya know, will you share a bed to save money to?" She said innocently. Annabeth blushed and managed to choke out a small no whilst her friend burst out laughing.
At that moment the boys burst into the clearing mock fighting. The sight of Leo's drenched hair and Percy's singed t-shirt made Annabeth sigh . every time they got together to do something romantic the boys had to mess it up by play fighting. Just as she thought this Percy shot a stream of water from the lake at Leo who ducked and watched it go straight into the Barbecue "was that really necessary? Now we can't even cook our food" Annabeth chided her boyfriend whilst calypso threw a towel at Leo. "don't worry uncle Leo's got the situation under control" joked the son of Hephaestus shooting finger guns of hot flame onto the coals. Calypso looked at Annabeth and rolled her eyes . But the blonde got the impression that she secretly adored her boyfriends antics. "Hey guys it's my birthday next month" she called out to the boys. Percy dropped his sphere of water. "What?" Annabeth grinned
"You know that celebration for the day you were born"
Percy rolled his eyes "I'm not that dumb". Annabeth pouted
"But you forgooooot" she mock whined. Percy chuckled "thank the gods you reminded me" not even pretending that he didn't forget. He strolled up to her and kissed her lightly. "Ewwwww get a room " cried Leo
Calypso giggled " Leo it's a double date"
"Oh yeahhhhhh". Annabeth laughed and began to kiss her boyfriend some more
