So this one-shot is sort of a continuation on form the last one. It just skips straight to where they go to dinner (they have to eat, don't they?). :P
Poseidon leant back in his chair and grinned. He was really starting to like this new free Athena. She was a joy to be around.
Athena laughed, all around just having a good time. She smiled at the memory of all the half-bloods they had stopped.
Some of them had bowed. Some of them had gasped. Most of them look very confused as to why the two were together.
Across the other side of the restaurant, two people sat there, staring at the two.
"You don't think they like each other, so you?" The man asked, astounded.
The woman laughed. "You really are a seaweed brain. Of course they do!"
"But that's weird!" he argued. "We're dating and they . . . ugh!"
"Perce, if they like each other, it's OK. I wonder what they're so happy about though."
Percy sighed. "I guess." He glanced over at the two. "They do seem to be abnormally happy. I'm wondering when they'll start fighting a blow the whole street up."
Annabeth snorted. "They're getting along."
Percy grinned mischievously. "Want to come with me to see what they're up too?"
"Percy," Annabeth warned. "Do you really want to be incinerated on our anniversary?"
He rolled his eyes. "If you don't want to, I'll just ask dad later. He said he was coming over to celebrate my birthday anyways."
"Fine!"
Percy called a waiter over and told him to hold their table. They were just going to do a little . . . exploring.
Annabeth walked behind Percy, who weaved his way in and out over all the moving people and food.
He stood at the table and grinned.
"Percy!" Poseidon grinned, standing up. "How are you my boy?"
"I'm good thanks."
Athena smiled and stood up too. "Annabeth, how have you been darling?"
Percy and Annabeth glanced at each other. Athena seemed a bit too . . . carefree.
"I have been good Mother. How have you been?" she asked suspiciously.
Athena laughed a beautiful sound that travelled around the restaurant.
"I have never been so good in all my existence!"
"Mother, is something wrong? You seem to be acting a bit . . . strange." Annabeth observed.
Athena smiled and sat down, making space for her daughter. She patted the space and Annabeth cautiously sat down. Poseidon and Percy soon followed suit.
"What are you two doing here?" Poseidon asked, and Athena nodded in agreement.
"Well, we were here for our anniversary," Percy started.
"Until Percy convinced me to come over and see what you two were doing," Annabeth rolled her eyes.
"We're celebrating," Poseidon explained.
"What are you celebrating?" Annabeth asked. "And why are you the only two?"
Athena laughed again. "Early this evening, I asked Zeus to rid me of my Maiden vow."
Annabeth's eyes widened. "What?"
"I am obviously still a virgin goddess, but I not longer abide by that rule. Hmm, I wonder . . ." Athena started muttering things to herself, none of which the other three caught.
"Is there any other news that you have neglected to tell us?" Percy asked.
"Erm . . . Amphitrite and I got divorced," Poseidon offered.
Percy raised his eyebrows.
"Really? When?"
Poseidon shrugged. "I would say around five to six weeks ago."
Athena snapped out of her daze. "How is that going?" she asked.
Poseidon sighed. "She came back again last night, threatening to destroy my palace if she is not let in. I wouldn't underestimate her either."
"Don't you have a different place where you can reside, somewhere she cannot find you?"
Annabeth and Percy glanced at each other. They had no wish to be apart of this conversation.
Poseidon lit up. "I do!"
"Um, we're gonna go now," Percy interrupted. "Sorry for coming over."
They stood up, bowed, and walked away.
They two looked after them.
"Anyways," Athena said, "you should just go. Move all your things. She can have the palace, but you won't be there."
Poseidon nodded. "You're right. I will. Thank you a lot."
"That's Ok." Athena glanced at her watch. "Gods, it's already nine o'clock. It is getting late. We must be heading back to Olympus soon."
Poseidon rolled his eyes. "We're celebrating. We don't a have curfew."
"Well . . ." Athena was torn. She didn't know if she should go back, or stay and have fun. She bit her lip. "Alright. But only two hours. And I'm not drinking."
Four hours later.
Poseidon and Athena danced around the dance floor, drunk. They both laughed at themselves, then at each other.
Athena shook her head. "We should be getting back!" she yelled over the music.
Poseidon nodded. "Let's go."
He grabbed her hand and teleported to Olympus, while everyone looked at the place they just were in confusment. (Is that a word? LOL)
They re-appeared in the deserted streets of Olympus. Everything was silent. For some reason, Poseidon and Athena found this very funny. They burst out laughing, and some minor gods came out.
"What is that noise?" Nemesis hissed.
"What is that noise?" Poseidon mocked drunkenly.
"Shh!" Athena slurred, trying to put her finger to Poseidon's lips.
"Are you two drunk?" Nemesis' voice rose a few octaves. "Athena, I expected better!"
"Doesn't everyone?" But it sounded more like, "Doefent wevrymon?"
Nemesis rolled her eyes. "Come on, I'm taking you to Zeus."
She put her hands on both of their backs and guided them towards the Throne room.
They both looked at each other and laughed again.
"We warn't mildken!" (We aren't children!) Athena complained.
"Obviously you are," Nemesis said under her breath, and because the two were so out of it, they didn't hear her.
(EXTRA PART!)
"I'm going out tonight! I'm feelin' alright. Gonna let it all hang out," Athena started to sing. "Wanna make some noise; really raise my voice. Yeah, I wanna scream and shout!"
"No inhibitions, make no conditions. Get a little outta line. I ain't gonna act politically correct. I only wanna have a good time!" Poseidon joined in. Nemesis was a little worried about how he knew the words, but it was just too funny.
"The best thing about being a woman," Athena continued. "Come on Nemesis, this is where you come in!"
"Is the prerogative to have a little fun," Nemesis said. "There, happy?"
Poseidon and Athena looked at each other then sang the next line together.
"Oh, oh, oh, go totally crazy! Forget I'm a lady!"
Then, they started singing in turns, as if they rehearsed.
"Men's shirts! Short skirts," Athena sang.
"Oh, oh, oh, really go wild; yeah, doin' it in style," Poseidon continued.
"Oh, oh, oh, get in the action! Feel the attraction!"
"Color my hair!"
"Do what I dare!
"Oh, oh, oh, I wanna be free! Yeah, to feel the way I feel!"
As Nemesis opened the doors, the two sang the last line.
"Man!" Poseidon started.
"I feel like a woman!" Athena finished.
The two started to laugh, and even Nemesis cracked it smile – hey, it was pretty funny.
(THE REST IS THE SAME :))
"Daddy!" Athena squealed. Everyone looked at her in shock.
"Zeus! Have you been working out?" (Just pretend it came out drunkenly – I couldn't be bothered to keep writing it like that xP. When they say things slurred, it will be in italics.)
Everyone's gaze turned to Poseidon.
"Where have you been?" Zeus demanded. "You've been gone for almost seven hours!"
"We weren't gonna do 'nothin!" Poseidon replied.
No-one could understand what was going on, except Dionysus, who grinned at them.
"What is wrong with you?" Artemis cried.
"I'll tell you whats wrong," Dionysus smirked. "They're both drunk!"
Zeus looked at the two. "Is this true? How many glasses of wine did you have?"
"Does ten come after three?" Poseidon asked.
"Whaaat?" Athena laughed. "No! It comes after five! Ten comes after eleven!"
"What was the question again?" Poseidon asked.
"Question?" Athena screeched. "I didn't know there was going to be a test! I didn't study!"
"Me either!" Poseidon said. "I didn't know we gonna come back to a lie detector!"
"Lie detector?" Zeus asked. "What?"
"There!" Poseidon closed one eye and stuck his tongue out so he could focus. Then he pointed his finger right at Apollo, who rolled his eyes.
"Just because I'm the god of truth!" he muttered.
"Dionysus," Zeus sighed. "Can you do anything about this?"
"Sorry Father," Dionysus shook his head. "They're high on mortal alcohol. They'll have to come down in their own time."
"Alright. Three gods will watch them over the night, and stay in here. Does anyone volunteer?"
"Pick me!" Athena said excitedly. "Pick me! Pick me! Pick me!"
"What about me?" Poseidon pouted.
Athena stuck her tongue out at him. "No!"
"I will," Apollo grinned. "This will be fun."
"Oh, me too!" Aphrodite squealed.
"Alright, and one more. Someone responsible preferably." Zeus said.
"I will," Artemis sighed.
"Alright. Watch over them tonight. Hopefully they'll pass out soon and won't be too much of a hassle. We will lock all the doors, so they can't get out." Zeus sighed. "Everyone else, out."
"I don't want to!" Poseidon whine, crossing his arms.
"You don't have to," Zeus said. "You need to stay here!"
"I don't want to do that either!"
"What do you want?" Zeus asked irritably.
Poseidon thought over it – or tried to. "Let's play hide and go seek!" He squealed like a little boy.
"Apollo, that's where you come in," Zeus said. "Good luck you three."
Then, the rest of the Olympians flashed out.
"Apollo!" Athena sang. "You're in for Hide and seek!"
Apollo, Athena and Poseidon played Hide and Seek for a few hours. Then Apollo found the two passed out behind the Thrones.
"They're asleep!" he announced, tiredly coming out.
"Finally," Artemis muttered.
"Aww, they're adorable!" Aphrodite squealed.
"They're exhausting!" Apollo whined, before promptly passing out himself.
I didn't really like how it ended, but I didn't know how to finish it.
How did you like them drunk? Funny, right?
