"Aaaand, done," Percy states proudly. A bit preoccupied with my own gingerbread
"house", I don't look over at it.

"Cool," I say.

"You didn't even look at it," Percy whines, now interested in what I'm building.

"Sorry, Seaweed Brain, I'm trying to get the columns perfect." I can't decide whether using ten columns or twelve columns will make it more symmetrical.

Looking over my shoulder he pouts, "You know, Wise Girl, last time I checked, gingerbread house making didn't involve making an exact replica of the Parthenon."

Wow, he really does have seaweed in his brain. Isn't is very obvious that if it were an exact replica there would be sixty five columns, not ten.

"How much longer are you gonna be?" He rests his chin on my shoulder pressing a gentle kiss to my ear.

I don't let him see the color that rises in my cheeks as I focus on putting the columns into place, gluing them on with frosting. "Not much longer." It took Percy only twenty minutes to fall asleep with his head rested on the table next to my work area.

An hour has passed since Percy fell asleep, and I am now just putting the finishing touches on the frieze. This not being an exact replica (of course), I opted to only put swirls in place of the detailed depictions of men riding into battle and all that.

I feel Percy's elbow brush against mine as he awakens. "Dear gods, Annabeth, are you done yet?"

"Yes, I'm done," I say with pride for my finished work. I step back to take a look at my work, and I catch a glimpse of Percy's. This is the first time I've seen it since he finished it, and gods, did it look… interesting.

"You like it?"

"Um… yeah." How do I describe it? Well, let's just say, there is a lot of blue. Blue frosting, blue sugar, blue chocolate. And you couldn't exactly see the actual house. It was kind of under all of that. "So… what is it?"

"Seriously, Wise Girl?" He acts as though I should know what that pile of blue sugar is. "It's one of the houses I saw when I visited my dad in the sea."

"What is uh- what is all that blue?"

"It's the water."

Uh-huh. Of course it is. I really don't think the seaweed left any room for a brain.

A/N

Just some good old Percabeth. That was actually partially based off of the picture called "Baking With Percabeth" by Deesney on deviantart. It's a cool picture, and if you haven't seen it, you should consider checking it out.

The next chapter will be out within the next day. Please review, and I hope you liked it.
