I am back with chapter 8! To be honest I really didn't think I'd make it up to eight chapters, but I'm thrilled that I have! And if I make it to ten… you will have no idea how overjoyed I will be!

Once again I have to do this…

Disclaimer; I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians… but I do own the children of the characters and the story line (no matter what some people say) !

The next morning

Percy's POV

I woke up with my arms around Annabeth, lying in bed in the Big House. I nuzzled my head into her neck and kissed it softly. Herd her groan and she rolled over so she was facing me.

Once she was facing me I said, "Morning beautiful."

She smiled, "Moring to you too." She gave me a little morning kiss and pulled away quickly.

I wasn't satisfied so I kissed her once more, making it vary passionate. She responded with kissing me with the feeling of love in it. We stayed like that until we heard a little baby cry.

I pulled away and said, "I'll get her." I got out of bed and walked over to the little crib in the corner of the room. I saw Marilyn tossing and turning. I picked her up and started rocking her. But she didn't stop, so I walked back to the bed.

Annabeth was starring at me in aw, but still had a smile on her face. I sat back down next to her. But she still had the same look.

"What?"

She shock her head, "Oh, nothing. Just you're the best husband in the world."

"And why is that?"

She gave me a quick peck, "Because Seaweed Brain, it's only the second day and you're already getting up with her so I don't have to. You're the best."

I smiled down at her, "Why thank you, but I think she wants you." So I handed my little crying baby to my wife.

She took her and smiled down at her child. But she didn't stop crying.

Annabeth looked up, "I'm guessing she's hungry. So out!" She said pointing at the door.

I frowned, "Oh come on we've been married for 12 year, we've had two other kids, and I'm the one who got you pregnant! Why are you making me leave now?"

She blushed and hit me in the arm, "Because Seaweed Brain, it's important that she gets comfortable with me, before there is someone else in the room."

I exhaled deeply, "Fine, you've won for now. But this isn't the end." I got up and walked out of the room.

I guess I'll go to the cabin and see if the kids are up yet and change close. Since I'm still in what I wore yesterday.

On the walk to my old cabin I realized what a beautiful day it was. Though it was always a beautiful day here because of the magical borders, that help keep out monsters, the enemy, mortals (except for Rachel because she's the Oracle) (A/N and will come in soon ;)), and the bad unwanted weather.

I entered the cabin area (which was rather large now) and headed for cabin three.

When I got close I couldn't see any movement, so I guessed that the kids aren't up yet.

Slowly I opened the old creaky door and walked inside. And sure enough there were the kids snuggled up in the beds. Maddi in the fare bunk and Josh in the one across from the queen sized bed about 1/3 of the way back in the cabin.

There was no one else in the cabin. Apparently my father really was joking when he said he was going to claim all of his other children after the war. But even after the war he hadn't had any other demigod children. I remember that I once asked him why he didn't have any children after the war, and he said in these words, 'Percy I am too in love with your mother to have a child with another women. I would go back to her now, but she is already married to that Blowfish guy-' 'Dad its Blofis.' 'Whatever, all I know is that she is happy with him and they have a beautiful little girl to love. It makes me sad that your mother has moved on, but I am grateful to the man that can make her happy when I had to abandon her, and leave her with only memories and a little boy. Who has become a vary strong and confident man, who is soon to be married and grow a family of his own.'

I smiled at the memory before I got changed. After I was done I decided to wake up the kids.

I went to Josh first. I tried shacking him and telling him to wake up. It didn't really work out too well. So I moved on to Maddiosn. I tried the same thing and got the same results.

I huffed and tried to think of a new way. So I went to the end of the bed and yanked off the covers.

She cried out, "Oh come on! Five more minutes!"

"No Maddi now you're going to be late for breakfast."

She lifted her head up a little bit and said, "Then what is the big deal if I am just a little bit later than late?"

I rolled my eyes, "Fine, I'll make a deal with you. If you get you now then I will let you wake up your brother in any way you want that doesn't involve hurting him physically."

She shot out of bed then I though even possible. She ran over to Josh's bunk and whispered something in his ear. I couldn't here what she said, but whatever it was it sure worked. He shot out of bed and started looking around franticly.

"Where… you lied to me! You're the worsted sister ever!" He screamed at Maddison, who was to the point of tears from laughing so hard.

He had the most heart broken look on his face. I feel bad now. Of course Maddi was going to say something to her brother that was going to scare him half to death.

I scowled Maddi, "What did you say to him?"

She straitened up and even looked a little scared herself. "All I said was 'Josh Megan is being kidnapped.' I knew it would get him up…" She trailed off when she saw my face. I was glaring at her. How could she do that to her brother? She knew it would break his heart. But she still did it. That's cold. …Oh wait that's good I should say that in a real fatherly voice.

"Maddi, how could you do that to your own brother? Didn't you know it would leave him heart broken? How would you feel if he told you something like that about Matt? It wouldn't feel too great. I know from personal experience that having someone you love being kidnapped, is the worst feeling in the world. When I was 13 your mother was kidnapped and I almost went completely crazy. I was worrying about her, not knowing if she was even still alive, and I it was worse because it was partly my fault. If I hadn't been stupid then none of it would have happened. But of course your mother and everyone else on the quest tried to tell me the same thing and that she was going to be alright, but that didn't stop the feeling." I paused and took a deep breath. "Now do you have something to say to your brother?"

By the end of my speech she had found a new interest in her feet. Still not looking up she mumbled, "Sorry."

I rolled my eyes, "Ok now say it to his face and like you mean it."

She huffed and looked up slowly, "Fine, I'm sorry Josh. I didn't know you would freak out like that."

I smiled put I wasn't pleased yet "And…"

She let out a loud sigh and rolled her eyes, "And I'm sorry if I caused you to worry about Megan and all that." She looked over at me, "Is that enough or do you want me to get down on my knees and beg for his forgiveness?"

I smirked, "Well that would be entertaining but I'll settle for a hug."

"Fine, if we hug will you let us go to breakfast?"

"Yes, now would you two hug I'm hungry."

She rolled her eyes, "Whatever." Then they hugged for a quick second then separated fast.

I smiled, "Alright now that, that little family moment is over go get changed so we can go to breakfast."

Maddi and Josh both rolled her eyes again and went to get changed.

Josh's POV

After getting changed we headed to the dinning pavilion. On the ways there Maddison made some stupid comment about me being able to make sure that my 'girlfriend' was ok. After saying that she wasn't my girlfriend and that were not aloud to date until middle school, Maddi was still saying that she was my girlfriend. I looked at dad for help but he looked like he was trying hard not to laugh.

But I had to face the facts because I really did want to make sure that Megan was ok. When Maddison told me she had been kidnapped, I totally freaked out. I didn't know how I was going to be able to go on without her. I mean how could I? She's my best friend and I'm already counting down the days until I can ask her out.

I have a pretty good chance too. My mom and dad tell us that we remind them of them when they were younger, minus all the fighting. Even though they blame the fighting on the odd rivalry, and that it's in there nature to fight. They still fight over the stupidest things sometimes, but at the end of the day they still love each other more than anything.

I know it's kind of early and all but… someday I want that to be me and Megan. …*Mental blush*… Well not the fighting part, but loving each other and um… always being together… *mental blush harder*.

"Josh why are you blushing?" I stopped dead in my tracks. "What are you talking about?" I was only mentally blushing …right? Crap, maybe I was really blushing too! And I'm with Maddi AND dad! Double crap!

Let's just hope that they'll drop it if I act normal and keep walking. Who am I kidding, I don't stand a chance!

"I'm talking about why your cheeks are all red?" Asked dad. Yup I was right he didn't drop it.

Now I need an excuse and fast! "Um… I got a sun burn yesterday," I said lamely. This is so not going to work I don't even believe myself. How being a brilliant grandson of ATHENA come up with such a lame excuse? Maybe if I keep my mouth shut and look strait a head, then he will believe me.

I looked a head hoping it would work. Boy was I wrong, because I blushed even more! Because standing there at the entrance to the dinning pavilion was Megan, looking all cute in her camp t-shirt and shorts with her beautiful brown hair up in a pony tail. She waved at me and I gave her a shy smile, because I was afraid if I did anything more then my dad will see and he'll know for sure.

Apparently dad saw me looking and followed my gaze. He gave me a sly smile and winked.

"Come on Maddi lets go sit down." I don't think I was so post to see, but I saw my dad elbow her as if dropping a hint. Apparently she got the hint and looked up. I'm guessing she saw Megan, because she looked at me and said, "You my dear brother will remember my act of kindness and one day return the favor if something ever comes up like this in my favor."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes, before saying, "Whatever you say sis. Now, can you go?"

She rolled her eyes and walked over to the Poseidon table. I looked back at Megan and saw she was waiting for me. I was still looking at Megan so I didn't realize that my dad was behind me until he whispered "What are you waiting for? Go get your girl." And gave me a little push to get me started and of course I almost feel flat on my face. I glared at him, but he just smiled and waved me forward. I smiled, turned, and ran.

I ran up to her and stopped. She smiled widely, and then looked like she remembered something and her smile melted away. "Whats wrong?" I asked.

She looked, "Oh nothing, it's stupid. It wouldn't even happen till years down the road anyways. So I don't even know why it's bothering me…" She trailed off and looked away.

I grabbed her chin and made her look at me, "That doesn't tell me what's wrong."

She smiled half heartedly, "It's just, last night after my dad carried me to my cabin, we had a talk." She got out of my hold and turned away so I couldn't see her face.

On impulse I grabbed her hand and led her away from the entrance. We walked a little bit a way before stopping. But she still wouldn't look at me.

"So are you going to tell me now?" I asked hoping that the answer would be yes, because maybe I can find a way to help.

Finally she looked at me smiling. "And there's another reason this is going to suck."

"Oh yeah, that makes so much more since considering I still have no idea what your talking about," I said jokingly. She let out a small laugh that made my heart race. "But really, I won't know what you're talking about unless you tell me…"

She exhaled deeply, "Fine I'll tell you. But you have to promises not to laugh."

"Of course, I won't laugh."

She took a deep breath, "Well when he took me back to my cabin he said that we weren't allowed to date until middle school. And he got my sisters Katie and Beth to back him up. He also but them like on guard duty. I know it sounds stupid because you probably don't feel the same way."

"Well that's an interesting story, and it's kind of ironic because my mom and dad had the same talk with me last night too. And believe me I feel the same way, and you know because I'm basically counting down the days until then. I promise the first chance I get to come back to camp during my sixth grade year, I'm coming back to see you and finally ask you."

By the time I was done she was smiling widely. I couldn't help but smile too. Man I can't wait till I can make this girl mine!

Sorry it took so long …again. My life is crazy! I was planning on getting this chapter out over the weekend, but my weekend was anything but boring. I was busy all the time.

So hope you liked it, and I will for sure get another out this coming weekend.

Anyways please review… cuz they make me happy!
