Welcome back! Last chapter of the week today. It's one of the slowest chapters of the series so far, but I like it. In this chapter Percy will interact with someone and that character will be quite out of character. When you read the scene understand that the character is that way for balance, I didn't want all the girls to have the same personalities. That out of the way, I hope you enjoy!
Chapter 9 - Highs and Lows
He woke from his slumber to find the bed empty. He had hoped to talk to Annabeth but that would have to wait now.
He rubbed the sleep from his eyes while he opened his curtains to look out of the window. He guessed to was just after noon.
Everything that had happened yesterday must have really taken it out of him, if he had slept for that long.
He stumbled to the bathroom, before doing his morning routine, shower, brush teeth and then washed his face.
He felt much better when he was done. He grabbed some jeans and a vest and threw them on.
He was about to head to the kitchen for something to eat when something silver caught his eye.
Scratch that, two silver things caught his eye. Two of the girls had delivered the coin.
His guess would have been Calypso and Zoe after yesterday, but they didn't seem too sure of themselves, so he wasn't positive.
He flipped the first coin over to see a small kiss with SB bellow it. Silena?! He wouldn't deny to anyone how ridiculously gorgeous she was and how lucky he would be to do anything with her. But that shit was intimidating.
He moved his focus to the other coin. The image this time was a small paint brush with the word RED above it. Rachel.
He knew she was still attracted to him, but he had hoped that if he avoided her for a while she would take her time. It wasn't because he thought she wasn't hot, she absolutely was.
It was the whole love triangle thing that bothered him. He didn't want Annabeth thinking that he wanted her the second there was no consequences.
It didn't matter what either of them thought now, he would have to talk with her soon to see what she was thinking and feeling.
His stomach growled pulling him from his thoughts. He made his way to the kitchen.
There was only two people there, his girlfriend and Katie. Annabeth smiled at him knowingly, while Katie was blushing.
"Morning!" He said cheerily to both girls, before walking over to Katie and kissing her cheek. He then went to Annabeth before giving her a sweet kiss.
"It's afternoon seaweed brain." She said, "Have you just woken up?"
"Yeah I didn't realise how tiring this whole business would be."
At his words Katie started spluttering on her coffee. He thought she couldn't have gotten redder. He had been wrong.
"Oh, really?" Annabeth asked, her eyes shining. She was teasing him. "Did the master have a busy day yesterday?"
"I did. But not in the way the way you are implying." He said, "I do have a question to do with that later though."
She could tell his tone was serious, so she nodded her head.
"Anyway, he said eager to change the subject, "What am I having?" He asked cheekily, hoping to steal some of her food.
She pulled her plate away from him, "Whatever you make you lazy muppet."
"But I'm not good at cooking!" He pouted, "I can barely make pancakes."
"Really?" She asked eyes shining mischievously, "I always thought you were good with your hands. Do you think he's good with his hands Katie?"
Katie mouth fell open at the insinuation. The toast she had been holding dropping to the floor.
He had never seen someone look so embarrassed in his life. The poor girls face looked like a red balloon. She wordlessly got out of her seat and walked out if the kitchen.
He would have to find her and apologise later. "That was mean!" He scolded.
She simply shrugged, "I was only joking. I'll apologise to her later." She said, "You wanted to ask something earlier anyway, what was it?"
"How do I go about this harem business without getting everyone pregnant? You know I don't like condoms, do I have to start wearing them again?"
"That's it? No, your fine. One benefit of leading a harem is you take control of your members reproductive cycles. If you wish for them to never be pregnant, then no one gets pregnant." She explained.
"That's a relief. I wanted to ask that before I had sex with anyone but yourself. Despite what you probably think I didn't have sex with anyone yesterday."
"I believed you. I'm just guessing if I asked you to say the same about you making someone or someone make you cum, you wouldn't be able to give the same answer?"
He shook his head guiltily. "It's okay Perce, I've accepted what has to happen now. Just try to not let it go to your head okay?"
"Yeah, I'll try."
They ate their food in peace for a few minutes.
When he finished he looked at Annabeth and said his goodbyes, explain that he had to check on Silena after the incident yesterday. He didn't mention the coin, thinking better just as he was about to bring it up.
He had an uneventful journey to her room, probably the first time he had gotten to where he had wanted without an awkward meetup.
He knocked, before calling out "Silena? You in there?"
He heard a soft, "Yeah, you can come in."
She had been sat at a desk reading some fashion magazine. He felt his mouth go dry when she smiled at him. Had he mentioned who pretty she was?
"Are you feeling better today?"
"A little bit" she responded," Things could be worse, I could still be in the fields of Asphodel."
He winced at how emotionless she sounded. He knew it was Drew's words that had done this.
He walked up to her before pulling her out of her chair and wrapping her in a comforting cuddle.
"You like those cheesy rom coms, don't you?" He said gently into her ear.
He heard a sniffle, before she responded "Yeah, why?"
"Later today, me and you are going to the movie theatre and watching whichever cheesy film you want, okay?"
She looked up at him with a surprised grin, "Didn't Annabeth say you hate those films?"
"Yeah. I do." He said looking into her big blue eyes. "But it will make you feel better. Just us two, no one else is allowed."
Her eyebrows shot up, "Like a date?" she asked teasingly.
He pulled out of the hug, but still held onto her shoulders "I was thinking just two friends hanging out. But it can be whatever you want it to be." He said.
"Your too nice to be real," She mused, causing him to blush for the first time. "Okay, what time should I meet you there?"
"It's what, 12:30 now? What about 5:45 so we can start the film for 6:00?"
"Sounds, great" She said while smiling at him brilliantly, I'll see you later."
He left her room, before deciding he was going to work out for a while.
He grabbed some workout clothes from his room before heading right there.
He went into his changing area and put some shorts on. When he went into the gym he saw two people were using it, Piper and Bianca.
Bianca was doing some complicated core exercises, while Piper was doing some squats. He finally understood why she had such a great ass. He said hello to Bianca quickly before letting her continue her workout.
He stated doing his back exercises, before getting distracted by Piper. How was he meant to work out when she was squatting and giving him that view? It should have been illegal for fucks sake.
He must have been staring for a while, because she finished her set and turned around and glared at him, before stomping up to him and prodding his chest painfully.
"Do you know how hard it is to concentrate, when all you can feel is someone's eyes on you?" She asked angrily.
He looked down guiltily, "Sorry. I was just thinking how well they were working."
"What?" She asked, completely confused.
"The squats." He explained.
It took her a moment to process what he meant. She felt her face get hot at what he had just said.
"Thanks." She muttered refusing to look at him. He had just insinuated that she had a nice ass because of her squats, what else could she say?
"It's no problem," He said, "I'm sorry though. I wouldn't like it if you checked me out while I was just trying to work out."
An idea came to life in her head. "Then make it up to me" She demanded, smirking slightly.
"What!" he said panicking. "What do you mean?"
She explained what she meant, getting him to agree reluctantly. He waited for Bianca to finish and leave before looking the door, he didn't want someone walking in on this.
"Is there nothing else I can do?" He asked hopefully.
"Nope." She said, shaking her head stubbornly.
Resining himself to it, he set the bar up where she wanted. He took his shirt off, watching her watch him. Her cheeks seemed to brighten.
"Go on then. Start squatting!"
With that said he started squatting for her, she was laughing and making crude comments the entire time. He was laughing under his breath.
Whilst he was taking a break before his next set, he remembered a conversation he had with Annabeth a while back.
"Hey, does this happen to be one of those fantasies you told Annabeth about?" He gave her a shit eating grin.
"WHAT!" She spluttered. He felt like he was finally getting the hang of this flirting/bantering situation.
"Oh nothing," he said, "Just wondered." He adjusted his shorts, purposely giving her a glimpse of his v line and pubic area. Her pupils dilated comically.
"I'm going to go shower and get of here now, okay?"
"Uhm, hmmm," She replied, making lots more sense in her head.
He showered and got out of there. It had been an interesting experience to say the least.
Putting the jeans and vest back on, he checked the time. He had 4 hours until he had to meet Silena. He decided he had enough time to go talk to Rachel.
He knocked but didn't get a response. He opened the door to see her painting with headphones on. He tapped her lightly, knowing whatever he did she was going to jump.
She had her hair down and was wearing some skinny jeans and a nice white blouse. "Shit, Percy! Do you always have to surprise me?" she teased, her green eyes shining bright as usual.
"Funny you reminded me," He took her coin out of his pocket and showed it to her "You surprised me this morning."
"Can I paint you?" She asked abruptly. "We can continue this conversation. It's just something I've always wanted to do."
"Why?" He asked, utterly confused.
"Because you have a handsome face and a sexy body." She said rolling her eyes as if he was a moron.
He felt his face heat up at her compliment. He nodded "Uhh, sure, what do I have to do."
She started moving painting equipment around at lightning speed. A minute or so later, her equipment was ready.
"Okay, just do as I say okay?" He nodded mutely. She grabbed his hand and put him where she wanted him.
"Yeah, this must come off" She said with certainty, before starting to pull his vest over his head. In his panic he stopped her.
"Off!" She said forceful. This time he let her. She eyed his bare torso, taking in everything. His solid six pack abs, his chiselled chest. His drool worthy v line. She ran a finger down him, felling all the bumps and ridges.
"Oh, wow." She said under her breath. Goose bumps erupted wherever she touched.
"Yeah, good. Yeah this is, yeah. Good." She mumbled incoherently. Her face was as red as her hair. She moved around him and raised his arms into one of those body building poses.
His back muscles moved deliciously. She felt him shiver as she traced them perfectly. She moved to his amazing arms. She gripped his biceps lightly.
"Do, it." She whispered into his ear. On her command she felt him tense. His arms growing around her grip. "Stay like this."
He gulped, nodding in understanding.
She moved back in front of him looking into his eyes. Her hand came up and caressed his face. She traced his jaw. "Sharp." He heard her whisper under her breath.
She put both of her hands on either side of his face. She got so close, their thighs and chests were touching. He was maintaining his pose.
She got on her tip toes and pressed her mouth onto his. It wasn't as chaotic as the kisses yesterday. She seemed much more composed.
It was like she knew what she wanted and knew how she was going to get it. Her tongue stoked his lips, eager for entry. He realised she was in control, so he opened his mouth, still doing that stupid pose.
Meticulously, she made him hers. Every inch of his mouth was sucked or licked. She may not have been as technically good at this as Drew, but he much preferred this.
She put every ounce of affection she had for him into it, without it turning messy. She lightly sucked on his tongue, earning a surprised gasp, as well as something hard jabbing into her thigh.
One of her hands moved from his face and dipped into his shorts. She lightly rubbed the hard thing covered by his boxers. She saw his body tense at her feather light contact.
That caused him to snap.
He broke his pose, grabbing her face and kissing her hard. He had expected her to be happy about this. He was getting into this as much as she was.
So, he was surprised when she flicked his erection hard, causing a pained grunt to escape his mouth. She pried herself out of his grip.
"I gave you one rule and you broke it." She stated simply.
And with that said she grabbed him while he was still stunned and threw him out of her room. Shortly after his vest flew out as well.
"If you want to do this properly, you can come back anytime. Just remember to follow the rules."
With that said the door slammed shut, leaving Percy hot and horny with no one to help him.
Poor Percy. Just when he started getting into it she blueballed him. Yeah as I said at the top, Rachel is the character who will be out of character. I made her this way so some of the girls who are confident contrast those who aren't. To answer a few questions:
There will not be Percy with any gods, the likelihood is like less than 5%.
One girl is really into role play, some of the others will be willing to try just to see what it's like.
Percy will have some lemon action all round his island, not just the bedrooms, it will start their but when he gets more comfortable there will be no limits.
That's all those answered. Thanks to all the kind reviews and favourites and follows. I will update on Monday, its one of my favourite chapters so far!
