Annabeth's Pov
Life was pretty dull at camp. Did monsters still show up? Yes. Did we stop training? Of course not. Monsters were still out there of course. But now there were long periods of time in which we were just lounging around. Good right? No. After a while your siblings go from tolerable to annoying. Worst of all, the times I had off didn't coincide with Percy's time slots. I suppose that is a sort of kind of blessing. I needed to work on my Olympus plans. So it was just another regularly dull day at camp. Or so I thought. Percy and I have a plan in which we wake up early to hang out around camp (which was more like I wake Percy up ). So imagine my surprise when Percy burst into my cabin before the sun had risen. Of course as soon as the door opened I was awake.
"Annabeth!" Percy practically yelled.
"Shhhh." I said motioning my head towards to lumps sleeping on cots.
"Guess what?" He rang excitedly.
"Let me guess." I started "The world is really made out of cotton pegauses rule the animal kingdom and I am the queen to your king of the new world."
"No." He said shortly "Chiron is giving us a full week off. We can do whatever we want." He paused waiting for my reply.
"Why would I be happy about that?" I questioned.
Percy pouted "Because you get to spend more time with me."
"Again, why would I be happy about that?" I teased.
"Because," He said cockily " You get to spend time with your oh so amazing nt to mention hot boyfriend."
"Wow." I said " Your head has definitely increased in size since you became the ' Savior Of Olympus'."
" Couldn't have done it without you Wise Girl." He said. We started walking, towards the beach no doubt.
"Seaweed Brain, I see a flaw in your earlier sentence." As `expected he rolled his eyes.
" And what flaw might that be?" He asked.
" I don't have an amazing and hot boyfriend." I teased. By then we were at the mess hall. Many people were there by then. The weird thing was that no one was seated at their regular table. So Percy and I sat down at a table with our friends. By our friends I mean Conner, Travis, Katie(Travis's girlfriend), Chris, Clarisse, Rachel, Grover, Juniper, Thalia (who had recently left the hunters for Nico), and Nico. We talked laughed and just had a good time. Then Juniper brought up a dangerous idea.
" How about," she started " We play spin the bottle truth or dare." No one wanted to back down. Percy got a bottle of blue coke. We went to his cabin. Everyone was sitting in pairs. My Seaweed Brain chugged a whole bottle of Coke.
"I'll explain the rules." Juniper said. "A person spins the bottle. They either tell them truth or dare or tell them to kiss someone. You can't back out of a truth or dare. If you back out of a truth you must take off an article of clothing. Questions?" The room was dead silent. I expect everyone was contemplating the consequences.
"Okay then I'll start." Grover said. He spun the bottle and everyone anxiously watched the bottle. It landed on Percy.
"Truth or Dare Percy?" Percy contemplated.
"Dare." Percy said. Grover grinned wickedly. " I dare you to close you eyes spin in 10 circles and then kiss the person your eyes first landed on. My eyes gave him death glare. Percy spun in a circle 10 times and landed on Rachel. Percy looked uneasy. He slowly approached her. He leaned in and kissed her … on the nose. Then he sat back down. He spun the bottle and it landed on Katie. "Hmm Katie ,TOD?"
"D." she smirked.
Percy smiled mischievously. I knew rhat smile.
"Ok then, I dare you to take off Travis's shirt and feel his abs ( 'If he has any' I thought) ." Katie blushed.
"Oh come Katie," I smirked "We know you want to."
Everyone laughed. Reluctantly, Katie got up and took off Travis Stolls shirt and felt his abs ( which where actually present).After five minutes she got up and went back to her seat. She spun the bottle and it landed on Thalia.
"Dare." Thalia said before Katie even asked.
" Okay then," Katie said slowly " I dare you to make out with Connor while he's shirtless." Nico stared Katie down with his famous death glare. Katie didn't flinch.
"How long?" Thalia asked giving Katie a glare of her own.
" Five minutes."
Percy untangled me from himself then walked up to whisper something to Katie. Then he pulled back, walked over to me , and I was back in his arms on the floor.
"Fine two minutes." Katie declared. Thalia quickly crawled up to Connor and started practically eating his face off. It made me want to puke. Finally the horrifying deed was done. Connor had a dream-like look on his face. As soon as Thalia came back to her seat Nico kissed her deeply. They were in that position for hours it seemed. In fact it was so long we almost left. Finally their lips parted each others with an audible pop. Thalia spun the bottle. Unfortunately it landed on me. She knew me so well she didn't even have to ask.
" 15 minutes in heaven with Percy."
I could feel my face heating up. I grabbed Percy's hand and dragged him to a small closet. Once inside I pulled Percy into my embrace. It had been awhile (not really) since we had had time alone together. We kissed quite a bit, but mostly talked. Even though we were dating we were still bestfriends. I kissed him deeply one last time. His hands were on my waist and mine were in his hair. Suddenly the closet was pulled open.
" Time!" Thalia shouted.
I really didn't give a crap. I just continued to kiss my boyfriend. We started walking out of the closet still in our embrace.
" Quite it guys , no one wants to see that." Connor said. I gave him the middle finger and continued to kiss Percy.
"Give it time." Travis answered " They'll run out of oxygen soon."
As it turns out oxygen wasn't a problem. I was breathing fine. After a few more minutes Thalia and Nico tried to pull us apart. Didn't work.
" Fine stay like that see if we care." Katie said.
Eventually Percy pushed me back into the closet and closed the door with his then started kissing down my jaw then finally reached my neck. He kissed up and down my neck.
" Love you." He murmured against my skin.
" Percy." I moaned. Then I came back to my senses.
" Percy!" I scolded.
" Yes?" He said kissing his back up my jaw.
" I….I…umm," his kissing was so distracting. " Stop it!"
"Why should I ?" he teased back nibbling at my ear.
" Ummm.. umm.. what was I talking about. Right. We're in your closet with our friend frickin outside and you want to do this now?"
"Why not?" Percy fought back.
"Stop." I said forcefully pushing him back.
"Sorry." He said backing up and bowing his head.
"Hey." I said pulling his chin up. I kissed him. It slowly got more heated until we were back at the beginning with Percy kissing down my jaw.
"Percy." I warned. He continued. "Percy!"
"Okay, okay, okay. I'm sorry." He said backing away.
"You're so needy." I said ruffling his hair. "Come on let's face all the teasing."
We walked out of the closet. Turns out our friend were doing some things of their own. Travis and Katie were making out. Connor and Rachel were too. Thalia and Nico weren't anywhere I could see but honestly I didn't want to know. The age difference between them scared me. I cleared my throat. They didn't do anything.
"Looks like the teasings not coming." Percy said.
I smiled " Want to go to the beach and finish what we started in the closet?"
"You bet." Percy sang like an eager puppy. " But first I'll do this." he went and snapped a photo of the scene. "Blackmail material?" I inquired "Oh yeah." He smiled.
"Come on babe." I sang "Let's go to the beach."
