Chp 7
Percy's POV

I got my baggage out the car and walked towards the holiday home. It was truly beautiful, set away from the city in a coolish, mountainous area. The river down the mountain was a clear blue and the grass around it was bright green.

I knocked on the door and was greeted by Ares. He smiled at me, shaking my hand and letting me in. Aphrodite poked her head out from the kitchen and smiled. "Hun, won't you show him his room?" She said.

So I was escorted to the room and put my bags down. I had just gone out my room after unpacking the few things I had, when I heard talking downstairs. I went down the staircase and saw Annabeth just about to come up the stairs with Aphrodite.

"Oh, Percy! Won't you show Ann her room. Hers is to the right if yours." She said. I smiled happily and said, "Of course." I took Annabeth's bag for her and we went up the stairs.

I put the bag down, closing the door behind her and put an arm around her waist, pulling her towards me. I lifted her. Him with my fingers and kissed her softly. She parted her lips, kissing me back and making waves of excitement coarse through me.

She pulled back, smiling up at me. "I missed you." I said. She smiled, saying, "I missed you too." I grinned down at her and said, "You know our rooms are right next to each other." I ran my hands down her arms to lace our fingers.

She smiled and said, "Should we really be risking getting caught?" I shrugged. "I didn't think it was too bad." She laughed and I caught her lips in another kiss. The sound of the front door closing made us quickly rush out the room.

We wet downstairs and were met with my dad and her mom. I gave my dad a hug and Annabeth's just gave a nod towards her mom. I still didn't understand what had happened there.

We were ushered to go have lunch, sitting down it a lovely pie. The housekeeper definitely knew a thing or two about steak pie. I had to launch myself into a conversation with Ares as my dad went out to the shops to get soe thing for Aphrodite.

I kept glancing over at where Annabeth was reading a book behind him. My dad came back from the shops and Athena proposed the adults went out to dinner at a good restaurant a couple kilometers away.

So the housekeeper went home, leaving the adults and us. The adults were soon ready to go out and were saying goodbye. We watched as they drove off. I turned to Annabeth who grinned and slung her arms around my neck.

She giggled as I supported her butt with my cupped hands, and she wrapped her legs around my waist. She kissed me softly, and I returned it. I managed to get to the lounge, and lay down on the couch, hovering over her.

She kissed me again, more passionately. I felt complete bliss in having her soft lips on mine. I sent butterfly kisses down her neck as she caught her breath. I pulled away to look at her face.

She smiled up to me, softly. She twisted our position so she was on top, and stroked my cheek with her thumb. I wanted so bad to tell her how I didn't want to hide our relationship. Wanted to shout out that I had such deep feelings for her.

But I needed to show her I cared for her - and am willing to do anything to make her happy. She kissed my cheek once more before getting up and going to get her book.

I propped myself on my elbow and raised an eyebrow. "What?" She asked, walking out the lounge and up the stairs. I jumped up and caught up to her. We went into her room and she turned to me.

"We get the house to ourselves with no one to interrupt, and you want to read a book." I said, making her raise an eyebrow. "It's a good book." I stared blankly at her, not wanting to seem rude if I rolled my eyes or got angry.

She just laughed and took a step forward, resting her one hand on my cheek. "Well what did you have in mind?" She asked, her voice soft.

I glanced down at her lips, and swallowed nervously. I know I can't be impulsive all the time - especially if I don't want to seem like I want to always make a move, because she might think I'm weird.

So I swallowed down what I was going to say and said, "Nothing, I just wanted to be with you." She was surprised by the answer I gave, but smiled. I sat down on her bed with her and she carried on reading her book.

I found the silence lulling me to sleep, and soon enough I was lying with my head on her lap.

I was awoken by Annabeth. "Are they home?" I asked, rubbing my eyes and getting ready to make a quick jump to my room before anyone came upstairs.

"No." She said, resting a hand on my arm and stopping me from getting up. I looked at her, surprised. "I just didn't want to wake you but found I had to if we wanted us time before everyone comes back."

It made her rosy cheek but made my brain feel like mush. I slide my hand to her cheek and pulled her mouth gently to mine. Parting my lisp before I kissed her, our lips pressed together.

With a hand rested gently on my chest, I rolled her so she was in her back. Our kegs tangled and my whole body felt like it was on hot wire. Every movement seemed to make my skin feeling hotter.

I moved a hand to rest on her skin on her back. She shuddered under me and I grinned victoriously. Soon enough my shirt was on the floor and her shirt was scrunching up, making the skin on our stomachs blossom with heat.

Before anything could happen, we heard the front door being opened and voices. We froze, forgetting completely about hiding or anything. They started to descend the stairs, and we still lay silent.

"Oh, I remember the days I used to check on Piper before bed. Anyway, she made me stop doing it because it was embarrassing when she was seventeen," I heard Aphrodite say.

"The good, old days. Anyway, good night." My dad said. We heard shuffling and three doors closing. I glanced down at Annabeth who seemed just as relieved. "I'm guessing that is your cue." She said.

Kissing her neck, a said softly in her ear, "Sure you don't want me to stay?" She hesitated. "I don't know." She said, her voice unsure. I got up, grabbing my shirt and pulling it back on.

She still stayed there, unsure still. I leaned across the bed, kissing her cheek before getting up and leaving her room. I had just gotten into my room and pulled off my clothes till I was in my boxers when the door knob made a soft sound.

Annabeth came in, her pajamas on. "I changed my mind." She said, making me grin and scoop her up, making her giggle. Oh how she makes me smile.
