Percy's P.O.V.

Soon enough Paul came home and gave Annabeth an application to fill out. She did so in like half an hour. After that we ate dinner. Mom made her delicious spaghetti with blue sauce And coke. Yeah again delicious. Annabeth seemed to like it and she seemed pretty comfortable with eating with me and Mom and Paul. Ben-Ben was asleep so we just put some in a bowl for later.

Then we told Annabeth about chores. Everyone does their own laundry and we each have a 'chore'. Mine is the dishes cause I just sit on the counter and will the water to clean the dishes. Annabeth's is just helping Ben-Ben with normal things like cleaning up his messes and stuff. Then after That we got an hour long lecture on how if we get in a fight we both get grounded from my iPod. ( yeah long story.) Also the most basic rule- no magic weapons in the apartment. So then we said our yeahs and okays and went to my room.

When inside my room I sat on my bed and Annabeth sat on my desk chair. Ben-Ben was In his bean bag chair drooling. Annabeth commented that he was like me. "it's because I helped raise him." She just laughed and asked for our iPod. I suppose I should explain it.

Well Apollo gave it to me shortly after the Titan War. And Annabeth was, like, always listening to it with me so I just gave her a iTunes card one day and let her pick her own songs. Then we just I guess made our own playlists and gave it to each other when one of us wanted it. Everyone thinks we are crazy because we share an iPod touch but we just don't care. I'm actually surprised Mom and Paul trust us in the same room with the door closed at night. Most parents wouldn't even consider letting their teen-aged son's girlfriend live with them but I guess my mom is different. I truly believe she was the one who convinced Paul to say yes too. The moment I told her Annabeth was having a hard time going to an all girls school like Rachel she asked me when she could move in. Some times I think my moms crazy, not that I mind though. I smirked at the thought. The reason I think they actually trust us is because we know each other so well. They probably think we know each others boundaries or whatever, and we do, but if I were the parent I still wouldn't test us. Thinking about it made my brain hurt. I looked up and saw my Wise Girl sleeping. She had both earbuds in and the iPod was still on. She still had her day clothes on so I went in her room and got her some pjs. Mom and Paul were in their room sleeping and the only light on was mine. I grabbed her favorite sweats and I searched a couple drawers for a shirt but I couldn't find one so I decided not to push snooping in her room and went back to mine. I went to my closet and got one of the smallest T-shirts I could find- the one I found would still be several sizes bigger than her. I put the clothes in her lap and pulled the earbuds out of her her ears and turned off the music, set the iPod on my desk. I picked her up-bridal style- and carried her to the door of the bathroom and stood her up. She was stirring so I nudged her shoulder and her eyes opened quicker than I expected and she looked around to see where she was. She realized I gave her clothes and she looked up and gave me a small smile. She walked in the bathroom and changed without question.

When she came out she looked more tired than before. Her eyes were practically closed and she looked like she was sleep walking. I reached over her and turned off the light in the bathroom and noticed she had put her toiletries bag in the bathroom. I made a mental note to ask her about that. I picked her up again and carried her into my room since she just had a mattress and a metal outline. I laid her down and kissed her goodnight. I covered her up and grabbed Ben-Ben and laid him down next to her. I grabbed a blanket out of my closet, turned off the light, and laid down on the living room couch.

Right as my head hit the cushion there was a knock on the door. I groaned and grabbed Riptide. I walked over,sword In hand, and walked to the door. As I put my hand on the knob I saw a blue glowing light and a lilac purple one. Curious, I opened the door and as soon as I saw them I dropped my sword. It clattered to the ground.

"Father, Lady Athena." I bowed and let them in.

"Well hi there Percy," my father said. Lady Athena just gave me a look of disgust.

"I understand my daughter has made a pore choice and moved in with you, where is she?"

"Umm I'll get her Lady Athena." I jogged to my room and shook Annabeth. She looked up and gave me a questioning look. I told her her mom and my dad were here. She jumped up, suddenly wide awake, and walked with me to the living room. Practically all the lights, except mine and Moms room, were on.

We got there in record time. She bowed and asked why they were here.

"Well, Annabeth, I'm here to give Percy a gift." My mouth dropped when my dad said that. Before I could say anything Athena spoke, "Hello Annabeth. I would like to know your reasons for moving in and now living with Sea-Spawn."

"Well Mother, Percy was kind enough to let me into his home with his family because I was having a hard time at my school. But, now, I will be going to Goode. It's a great school plus Paul works there." I noticed how my father twitched when Paul's name was mentioned. " Well you have certainly losses your mind my young daughter. I'm not sure you are even mine anymore- going on multiple quests with him, becoming friends and lovers, moving in, and the list goes on!" Okay I would be lying if I said I wasn't pissed right now, Annabeth was getting chewed out and it was because of our relationship. Poseidon didn't like our relationship but he excepted it and didn't make a big thing of going out of his way to criticize Annabeth, which I like. But Athena did the opposite, each time she saw one of us she would yell and lecture us. I hated it.

"Lady Athena that's my fault." "Hmm my young boy, all of it? Everything?" "Umm yes Lady Athena. When I first came to Camp she made it clear she wasn't fond of a new friend. And the quests, I chose her and another friend. Again, my choice. And as for this," I said meaning our relationship,"That was my idea. All she did was get Tyson to help with the cake." I was sure I was about to be obliterated because she looked like she was red. Like actually red. "Well it seems you have been the one influencing my daughter. Why would you do such a thing?" Yeah she yelled the last part... I glanced at Annabeth and she was close to tears, something I've only saw like 4 times. Then it looked like a movement came from the hall leading to my bedroom. "I was selfish. I didn't want her to hate me or any other feelings of dislike." When I was done Wise Girl glanced at me with a tear in her eye. Then Ben-Ben walked out of the hall, he must of been what I saw.
Lady Athena gasped. Yeah, she probably thought he was ours. "What is this little child? And you better not have made him with her you freaking immature, hormone crazy boy!" She scared him and he ran into my arms. I picked him up and told him to wake up Mom and Paul, he scurried out of the room to get them.

"Lady Athena I would appreciate it if you didn't yell in front of him. And no he isn't mine or Annabeth's." "Oh child your soul was just saved." She breathed a sigh of relief for who-knows-why.

Soon enough Mom and Paul walked in. They were stunned that our parents were here and they bowed- the norm. Ben-Ben came back to me and i picked him up...again.

"Well I suppose I should explain why I am here with Athena, I came to reward Percy for his actions. Especially with the war. Well your gift is in the parking lot and you can see it tomorrow but for now here." He handed me 2 black car keys that were clearly not made from any human dealership. "Umm... Thanks Father you didn't have to do that." "Please it was fun, Hephaestus built it and Zeus, Athena here, and Ares just sat there grumbling." "Well again, Dad, thanks." "Oh by the way, it can turn into any car you want you just say the words."
"Really? Like a transformer car?" "Yeah it's really cool, plus the only thing a person sees is the car body,not the transformation." "Okay if you guys are done with your heart to heart car talk I would like to leave." Lady Athena said with a snotty look on her face. "Fine. Percy have fun with it."

And with that they were gone.
