The Seven have an Overnight Hangout Session (AKA a sleepover)

by shadowhunterofathena

In this story the seven all come over to Percy's house to hang out, and they discover some unexpected things. Overall it is a funny and fun light read. I do not own any of the characters, all of the characters are owned by Rick Riordan, as well as events mentioned to have happened before the story takes place. This story is building off the Heroes Of Olympus series.

3. Chapter 3

The cookies were delicious. The gooey, blue, chocolatey goodness melted in Piper's mouth. What is it with Percy and blue food? She thought. He was always eating any blue food he get his hands on. Before she could ask, Jason spoke for her. "Why are they blue?"

"Well, blue food is just better." Percy replied.

"But it's not like it improves they're taste. I mean they're amazing, but not because of the food dye."

"Well I guess they just taste better to me because it's like a memory from when I was a kid"

Everyone, except for Grover and Annabeth, looked at him with curiosity. "Wait you mean there's a STORY behind the blue food. A sentimental meaning! Ohhhh!" "What's the story!?"

Percy looked a little defensive but replied anyway, "Well my ex-step dad was a pretty bad dude, and so one time him and my mom had a fight. He insisted blue food didn't exist, so ever since then she went out of her way to buy blue food."

They were quiet for a little bit. "You know," Leo interrupted the silence, "I always thought you just like were obsessed with the color. It's nice to know you're not just crazily obsessive." Everyone laughed and joked around after that. Percy was relieved that the awkwardness had disappeared. He didn't like remembering his past at all, but he HATED talking about Gabe.

For a while they all just sat there; talking, enjoying each others' company. Percy played gently with Annabeth's curls as Frank recounted a funny story from his childhood. It was nice. In that moment, it was like they weren't demigods, they were normal teens.

They somehow transitioned to small side conversations to almost systematically taking turns telling stories. Percy made a mental list of some weird information that could end up useful.

Three things I've learned tonight:

NEVER mess with Frank's grandma

Nico loves pasta

Piper has an obsession with musicals, especially ones about American revolutions.

He was pretty confused when Piper was talking about this musical she loved about some ham man or something, but Annabeth seemed to share her enthusiasm, so Percy went along with a blank smile.
