Hi! I'm sorry I took so long (even though you don't care for my apologies/excuses) but I was SO busy with school. This week, luckily there wasn't much work, so I could get chapters out. Also, Wattpad crashed on me right when I finished and I had to redo EVERYTHING all over again.
I'm going to start posting chapters every 2 weeks. I wish I could do it quicker, but I can't.
Anyway, enjoy the chapter!

Jason POV:

"Ready?" She asked for the tenth time in 10 minutes.

"I'm coming, I'm coming," My voice called from the bathroom. The bottle of hair gel next to me tumbled over onto the tiled bathroom floor with a thud.

"You okay in there?" She asked with a slightly concerned voice.

"No, I'm Jason in here," I said, smiling wildly.

"...Really?" I could tell she was smiling too.

"Yep," I stated. Footsteps receding, Piper left the bathroom door, quietly laughing.

I picked up the bottle on the floor and placed the gel next to my shampoo and soap. Then, I started to comb again. Piper always said I was too self-conscious about my hair. Is it a crime to want to look good? If it is, I would rather break the law.

After I finished combing, I put my comb back in place and gave myself a last look in the mirror. I was wearing my white sweatshirt with some black jeans that I found in the back of my closet. Now that I think about it, were those Percy's?

Piper yelled again, "COME ON, YOU TAKE LONGER TO DRESS THAN SILENA!"

I smirked and pulled the door open. Piper was wearing a sparkly beige shirt that read, 'I'm chill' with a bowl of ice cream on it and some jeans. Her hair was in a bun with the little feather hanging to the side of her head.

"Ugh, took you long enough..." She moaned. "Come on, I'm scared that Thalia died in the car from how long you've taken caressing your hair."

"So, she's coming, the hag..." I remarked, beaming.

Piper nodded, "Looks like Bethy talked some sense into her. I'm glad she's coming."

I smiled, thoughtfully, "Me too." My school ID was over on the kitchen counter, so I went over and grabbed it. Next to it were some lemon drops; I plopped one into my mouth and held one out for Piper.

"Really? We're about to eat ice cream!" Piper was such a bummer, man.

Swishing the drop in my mouth, I replied, "You can never have enough sweetness in your life, Piper Mclean."

She groaned and snatched the drop out of my hand. "Come on, Thalia's waiting," She tried to pull me outside.

"...What are you trying to do?"

"Get your fat ass out of this door!" Pipes said as she continued to pull me outside. I didn't budge.

"I think you're too weak to pull me outside, Pipes." Piper dropped my hand and looked at me with intense rage.

"Oh, okay, that's how we're gonna play." She took a deep breath. Took a few steps forward...

I assumed she was either gonna kick me in the crotch, or pull me outside by my ears, you never know with Piper. Instead, something else happened.

She put her hands on my shoulders and pushed her lips up to mine. Grinning, I kissed her back. She wrapped her hands around my neck and I held her waist.

Next thing I know, I'm standing outside with Piper's bag in my hand.

My head swiveled over to face her, "Congrats, you got me outside with your charm. Now, take your bag back please?"

She smirked, "As always, I win. Anyways, what else could I do? There was no way to get you outside. I'm sure you were twice as heavy with that mound of hair gel on your head." Piper extended her hand up to my head and, well, she destroyed my hair. In horror, I placed my hand upon my ruined hair.

"...PIPER, YOU STOP RUNNING AND GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE!" I was chasing Piper around the car as she giggled, playfully.

Piper was pretty fast. Also pretty. Sorry, I didn't need to mention that, still a little woozy from the Charmspeak.

Let's get back to Piper's speed. I turned to head in the other direction and cut her off. Piper ran right into my arms and I lifted her up.

"Do you apologize for ruining my hair?" I asked her, as she giggled above me.

"Yes, I'm sorry. Please put me down, and let's go?"

Swishing the lemon drop in my mouth more, I say, "I accept your apology. Let's go." I lower Piper down on the ground and she walks to the car.

"...Well? Let's go Sparky!" I smiled and walked to the car. I held the door open for Piper and she blushed, "Dork."

I went in after her. Thalia was listening to music. Her headphones slid off and she tossed them into her bag, "About time, lovebirds..." She was wearing the same thing as this morning, a beige T-shirt that read 'mood.' and had a golden bow pin attached to it. Her dark hair was thrown up into a messy bun, but everything about Thalia was messy; in a good way, of course. [Thalia! That's a compliment!]

"Yeah, yeah. So... you're ready to go, Thalia?" I looked into her eyes.

"Yes. I am now." She held Piper's hand. The two of them smiled at each other and I melted.

Grinning, I said, "Let's go! Oh, and hi Nico. How are ya feeling up there?"

Nico looked back at me, "Great... Let's get to the social. Mom, we're ready."

Nico's mom said, "Nice, let's go!" The car revved and we drove away to the social. When I looked over, Piper and Thalia were still holding hands.

Annabeth POV:

I got into the house and, on cue, my dad called, "Hey, honey, come over here!"

Kicking my shoes into a corner, I walked into the kitchen to find dad. He was cooking. Except whatever he was cooking... it didn't exactly look edible.

There was food all over the ceiling, table, walls, well, everything really. My dad was also covered in some sort of red, sticky substance. Walking a little closer, it smelled sweet. The table was full of cooking supplies like sugar, a cake pan, cracked egg shells, food coloring, and loads of other utensils.

"What did you do to the kitchen," I asked, staring in awe. Dad looked up at me. He appeared to be attempting to clean the table.

"Hi, hon, I'm gonna need your help. I was trying to make a cake, and it got everywhere," He explained, handing me a towel. I walked over to the table to start putting the utensils back in their place.

"How?" I questioned, placing the cake pan back into the cabinet.

"Well, first I mixed the butter and sugar. While I slowly mixed them, I carefully added a pinch of-"

"You know what, it's fine." I walked back over to grab more supplies. "How did you have so much time to do this? When did you get back from school?"

"Same time as always. I work quick," He told me, washing a bowl in the sink.

"Okay then." I placed the cracked eggshells into the trash and looked back at dad. "So, how are we going to clean the ceiling?"

Dad smiled, "We can..."

I looked around the room, "Pull up a chair and stand on the table to clean it. What are we going to clean it with..."

"We can use wet paper towels. You go up, I'll get them," Dad said. He grabbed a couple of paper towels as I pulled a chair over to the table. The table was a little slippery because we had just cleaned it, so I was extra careful while getting up. Dad handed me the paper towels and I cleaned off the sticky batter. It came off easily, as it was still a little wet. I gave dad the towels to hold as I got down from the table.

"Okay, I'll get the walls. You can go do your homework. Thanks, princess," Dad said.

"It's fine. And, there's no homework for the first week of school. I'm going to this ice cream social today-"

"Ooh, ice cream social? Who are you and what have you done with my daughter?"

I smiled, "Well, maybe I'm an alien."

"Maybe. And maybe I'm great at cooking."

"...Nah, I don't think so," I shook my head. Dad grabbed a wet towel flung water all over my clothes.

"Dad! I'm about to go out!" I frowned and picked up another towel. "En guard!"

Wet towels are a lot like swords in duels. Our towels intercepted each other and water sprayed all around.

Dad went to the sink and stuck his towel under the tap.

"Hey, no fair!" I ran over and stuck my towel underneath the tap as well. He threw his towel at me, "Ahh, cold!"

I wrung the towel on top of his head. "EEK!" He screeched and grabbed his head.

I laughed, "Sorry, that was a little extreme..." We laughed together when the bell rang.

"Oh?" Dad asked.

I chewed my bottom lip, "...Oops."

"Annabeth?"

"Um... well, we were so busy with the whole cake explosion, and I just... forgot to tell you. Um, Percy's here to bring me to the social..."

Awaiting dad's version of the cake explosion, I looked down. It didn't come, so I looked back up. Dad was gone. The bell rang again.

"Dad?"

I walked out of the kitchen. Dad was looking out of the door peephole. "So, that's Percy, huh. He's not bad looking... You look better though."

"Dad!"

He laughed, "Okay, I'll stall him, get up, change!"

Praising my dad, I ran up the stairs. I looked back, "Dad? One more thing. If you say ANYTHING embarrassing about me, I swear to Hades, I will have my revenge."

"Hey, what could I say? I've probably already told him everything. Plus, he firsthand knows how embarrassing you are," Dad grinned. I groaned and made my way upstairs before Percy rang the bell again.

My room approached, and I slammed myself in.

Okay, challenge #1: Get dressed.

Percy POV:

Okay, here you are. Just ring the bell.

Any day now. Yep. Any day now...

MAN UP, PERCY! IT'S JUST A STUPID BELL! When is this going to get this any easier? Okay, it's just Wise Girl, it's just Wise Girl.

I reluctantly rang the doorbell. There was an awkward silence. Shit, is she not ready? Did she bail? I rang the bell again.

Not wanting to be that person, I waited at the door. Their car was still in the parking lot, so I knew that they were here. Did she forget? Did it mean that little to her? I mean, it wasn't a date or anything, but I thought it was pretty important... No, snap out of it, Annabeth wouldn't do that.

Not knowing what to do, I rang the bell again. The little chime made my stomach churn. I felt a little uneasy, waiting at her doorstep. I hoped she wouldn't leave me hanging here, I would've felt like a real loser going to the social without her. Well, I guess the gang would be there. Still, it would've been different without her.

The door swung open, and I sighed in relief. Annabeth's dad stood in front of me. If you haven't met him, he doesn't seem too intimidating. In fact, he's a pretty nice guy. His blonde hair is a sandy blonde. His brown eyes are what is very similar to Annabeth's despite not being gray. They both had an aura of creativity and brilliance.

"Percy," he nodded.

"Hey, Mr. Chase."

"Well? Are you waiting for an invitation?"
I almost laughed, walking into the house. I placed my shoes in a corner and followed Mr. Chase into the living room. It seemed like they didn't come in here too often because it was way too clean.

"So, how have you been? How's Poseidon doing?" He handed me an apple.

"It's okay," I gave him the apple back.

"Ah, I almost forgot," Mr. Chase ran back to another room. When he came back, he had a bowl of blueberries, "Here. And, don't say no, it was a lot of work to get those blueberries."

I grinned and accepted the bowl of blueberries. I plopped one into my mouth and it was delicious, like all blue food. "Thank you. And, I'm just fine. Dad is... dad. Busy man, he is. He's just fine though. I'll be seeing him soon."

Mr. Chase sat on the couch, "Right, I almost forgot. I won't apologize, you've probably heard enough apologies. You're a strong boy, Percy, I know you."

I sat there, a little stunned. "I hope so. But, how are you? How's Annabeth been all these years?"

Mr. Chase laughed, "Well, I'm happy. Malcolm's in college now, doing well there. Don't have to pay much with the scholarship, but you know, food and rent aren't too cheap. Now Annabeth, she's a very... introverted girl. Someone has forbidden me from embarrassing her, *ahem ahem*. But, she has changed from when she was a child. A little more quiet, little more closed off."

Well, I believe that. It wasn't too surprising, that she changed. I mean, we both did.

"So, when are you both coming back?" He asked, changing the subject.

"6-7. She'll be back soon, don't worry. And if she isn't, mom will punish me more than you will."

He laughed, "Okay. How is Sally?"

"Yeah, she is. Mom is great. Work is great too. She's thinking of pursuing some art, not too sure what yet. All that matters is she's happy," I responded.

"Well, I'm happy for her. I'm happy for both of you."

"Thank you. So, where's wise girl? She put on her blush or what? Also, why are you drenched?"

Mr. Chase laughed, "Maybe. We had a water fight."

I was gaping, "What? I wish you waited for me! Annie could've come wet if she wanted, prolly would've dried off in the sun."

He nodded, "True. She'll be down any sec-well, speak of the devil!"

I turned my head. Wow, she was pretty. I mean, she was finally down, the slowpoke.

She was wearing a white lace top that looked like something Silena would wear, and a pair of black pants. Her blonde hair was wrapped up into a braided bun, with a strand of hair to the side of her face.

Her blonde hair was wrapped up into a braided bun, with a strand of hair to the side of her face "You look nice, now let's go, Annie," I said, standing up and walking to her.

Annabeth POV:

I had just dressed up to leave. I didn't put too much on, it would look a little weird for a social. And, I wanted to finish up quick; Percy was downstairs, and I didn't fully trust dad on that 'no embarrassing me' thing.

I gave myself a last look and grabbed up my purse and phone. It was time to go see him.

Making my way downstairs, I stopped on the last step and eavesdropped.

"What? I wish you waited for me! Annie could've come wet if she wanted, prolly would've dried off in the sun," Percy whined. What a crybaby.

He nodded, "True. She'll be down any sec-well, speak of the devil!"

I had been spotted. Embarrassed, I walked over to the living room. Percy turned his head and looked at me. With his face. His adorable face.

"You look nice, now let's go, Annie," he said, standing up and facing me. He was now wearing a turquoise shirt and white jeans. His hair was messily combed as if he'd done it with his fingers. He was also wearing his letterman jacket. It was navy blue and seemed like Percy barely wore it from how unspoiled it appeared to be.

"Okay, off we go." I put on my shoes and Percy did as well. Dad walked us to the door, "Have fun kiddos, and be back soon."

"Okay, dad," I wrapped him into a hug and walked out with Percy. Dad shut the door and we walked out to the driveway.

I stopped. "Um, no."

Percy turned to me, "Huh?"

"What is that?" I pointed to the black motorcycle on the side of the curb. Percy followed my hand.

"Ohh, you mean Blackjack! Yeah, he's my motorcycle. Dad gave him to me."

"Blackjack? You named it?"

"Him, and yes," Percy smiled. "Come on, the others will be waiting."

I took a step back, "Yeah, no chance."

Percy looked at me confused, "And, may I ask, why?"

Flabbergasted, I said, "It's. A MOTORCYCLE!"

"So what? Don't look at me like that, I'm rightfully confused. Thalia loves it when I take her on Blackjack!"

"I'm not... like Thalia! Don't make me do this," I pleaded.

Percy put his hands up, "Fine, fine, I'll just go by myself." My heart dropped as Percy sat on Blackjack and turned the key. The engine revved and my chest pounded. I needed to say something. I need to tell him to stay. Stop!

But, I stood frozen, watching him put on his helmet. I looked down, waiting for him to leave. But motorcycle stayed in place. I looked up and the visor was up on his helmet. He was looking at me as if I were acting insane. I wasn't, okay? You're probably screaming, 'Just get on the motorcycle! Stop being a wimp!'

Let's see you in my position. I'm not that desperate, okay? It's like, skydiving for the first time. Or bungee jumping. Only less extreme.

Okay, back to Percy. I was looking up at him, as he was looking back at me.

"I'm never gonna leave you, Wise Girl. Always remember that. Now, let's go. Nothing will happen to you as long as I'm here." His sea-green eyes bore into mine. His voice came out slightly muffled from his helmet.

I blinked, "O-Okay." Percy held his hand out for me and pulled me up. His touch was warm and reassuring. I hopped on and let go of Percy's hand, which was a little upsetting.

"Hold on tight, okay?" Percy pulled his visor back down and revved up Blackjack again. I didn't grab him right away, because I thought I could handle it. Also, I thought it would be really awkward. After almost wimping out, I didn't need to hold Percy's metaphorical hand as I rode my metaphorical bicycle for the first time!

I was an idiot. As Percy hit the accelerator, I slammed into his back, then almost fell off the back of the motorcycle. My hands flew up to his shoulders and I held on for dear life. After about 30 seconds, I was still freaking out. After about a minute, I was still freaking out. I'm not sure when I stopped panicking as much as before. But, dare I say it, I was almost enjoying myself.

The wind brushed past my face, a strand of my hair dancing in the wind. I gripped onto Percy's shoulders tighter as we turned left.

We stopped at a red light and Percy asked me, "Having fun?"

"Honestly? This is... an experience," I said, smiling, even though he couldn't see me.

"Glad to hear. We should be there in like 5 minutes, so, get comfy," Percy said. I was extremely happy with this. Soon, we were off again and the wind was racing past us. I looked around me at the world racing by. The signs, the buildings. Clouds overhead were beautiful and elegant. Is that a bird? Ooh, looks like an eagle! Or a plane. Nah, more like a pile of fluff.

The sky was a faded blue, and the sun was covered up by puffy cumulus clouds. I was so busy admiring the beautiful scenery, that I didn't realize we were at school until Percy was requesting me to hop off the motorcycle, "Off you go!"

Letting go of Percy's shoulders, I stepped onto the ground. I suddenly felt the need to projectile vomit, but I calmed myself by thinking of the ice cream I was about to eat.

I turned around and Percy was putting his key into his pocket. He faced me, "Not so scary, huh?"

"Not so scary," I groaned. Percy smiled smugly and I walked away from his motorcycle. I looked around to find the others, but all I saw were girls glaring at me and Percy and Blackjack.

Before I could mention this to Percy, he walked up behind me and placed his hands on my shoulder, "Let's get some ice cream, they'll turn up soon."

"Sure, sounds good... You're totally gonna get vanilla," I said, bounding towards the school.

Percy's mouth opened, "No! Maybe!" I giggled at him and walked into the line.

"HEY, BETHY! WE'RE UP HERE!" Thalia screamed and I grinned. She did come after all... "COME IN LINE WITH US!"

Percy chuckled, "Now THIS, is gonna be a proper social."

Thalia POV:

We were all standing in line. After waiting YEARS for Piper and Jason to get into the car, we met up with Silena, Beckendorf, Hazel, Frank, Leo, Calypso, Grover, and Will apparently. After that, we got in line and were chatting.

"Where's Perce?" Jason asked. "He was the one so insistent on coming to the social!"

"He's on his way with Annabeth, chill. They should be here any minute," Will said. Silena's head shot towards him, then back ahead of her.

Hazel said, "Oh okay! Well, where did Nico go?"

"Um, I'm right here!" Nico was standing behind the rest of us. "I'm sorry that I'm so short?!"

I was going to laugh, but I saw Percy and Annabeth in the back of the line. You already know what they were wearing, but it wasn't just that. They gave off an aura. It felt strong, yet nervous at the same time.

"HEY, BETHY! WE'RE UP HERE!" Jason hopped in the air and Piper shivered. I didn't think I was that loud, but whatever. Drama queens... [Well? You guys are! Don't give me that look!] "COME IN LINE WITH US!"

They grinned and cut the line to us. "I knew you would come!" Percy tackled me into a hug and I pushed him away, "Stop that! The only reason I came was for you guys."

Annabeth looked at me, and we both knew what I meant by that. Then, unannounced, Leo and Calypso embraced me from behind. "EEk! Stop doing that! It's getting really annoying!"

"Doing what? Hugging you," Leo asked, "No way."

Cal added in, "One day, you'll get used to this. I swear on... Leo."

Leo let go of me, "Um, what the hell is tha-"

"GROUP HUG," Jason screeched. Everyone came crashing in on me and I actually laughed.

After they released me (it took a while,) we didn't really need to wait because people just let us cut. Seriously. We didn't even ask! They just moved! I guess these are the perks of being a vicious hunter. [Oh, shut up, Jason! I'll steal your brick! Yeah, that's right, you walk away...]

Once we got to the front, "How can I help you, dweebs?"

Yep, Reyna was the one taking our orders.

My jaw dropped. "Seriously? You, volunteering to help with the Ice Cream Social?"

Reyna laughed, "I mean, Mr. D said I'd get extra credit because no one was volunteering to help."

Annabeth shoved me out of the way, "Extra Credit? I didn't hear about that!" She glanced over at me, "Oh no, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-"

"Hey, don't even worry about it. Let's just get some cream iced," I studied the different ice cream flavors on the sign. There was Brownie, Cake Batter, Pumpkin Pie, Vanilla Bean, Strawberry, Cookie Batter, Mint Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Chip, Cherry Garcia (based of the extremely delicious Ben & Jerry's ice cream -KHO), and Iscream Surprise (that pun hurt me physically).

I was in awe that there were so many flavors at this measly social. Seriously, there were dozens of gallons of ice cream.

I whispered, "How can they afford this, and yet we have textbooks from a hundred years ago?"

Jason snickered, "Priorities, of course."

Once I had made my choice, I asked Reyna, "Can I get some Cookie Batter creamed ice?"

She grinned, "You can."

I groaned, "Really?" She peered back at me with the same irritating expression. "Ugh. May I have some Cookie Batter creamed ice?"

As the winner, Reyna passed over my creamed ice and I rolled my eyes, walking away. Who does she think she is...

Percy and Grover got Brownie, Jason got Mint Chocolate Chip, Silena got Strawberry, Leo got Chocolate Chip, Piper and Calypso got Cherry Garcia, Hazel and Will got Vanilla Bean, Nico got Pumpkin Pie, Beckendorf and Frank picked up some Cake Batter. Annabeth got the Iscream Surprise and, to be honest, it was shaved ice. Blue Raspberry shaved ice. How is that special in any way, shape, or form?

"Told you I wouldn't get vanilla," Percy announced.

Annabeth scoffed, "If I hadn't said anything, you would've gotten vanilla."

We all sat down to enjoy it under an oak tree.

"Percy, where did you get this picnic blanket from," Jason questioned, slightly concerned.

"Yo mama!"

"Shut the fuck up-"

"Okay, okay, but I actually did. She left it at our house a while back," Percy explained, placing the blanket on the shaded grass.

Annabeth said, "But you didn't bring a blanket on your motorcycle."

I stood up, "Wait, you brought Blackjack?! That's not fair, it took me like 3 months to convince you and I'm guessing she didn't even ask!"

Percy shushed me, "Later okay, later. And, for your information, I left the blanket in my gym locker."

Leo nudged my shoulder, "Yeah, and I'm sure I know why. With Rachel last month, amirite? Eh? Eh?"

Beckendorf pushed Leo, "Bro, shut up," He was laughing too.

Percy looked over at Annabeth, who seemed to have become increasingly awkward. "Guys, stop," Percy spoke flatly. They stopped and sat down together.

I hunkered down with my ice cream next to Piper, "Come on guys, don't spoil the mood!"

We all, one-by-one, sat on the picnic blanket. The ice cream was surprisingly good for school food. The sweet chocolate chips swirled in my mouth while the flavor of cookie batter lingered. I could tell the others were enjoying their ice cream/fro-yo too. I was really not regretting the decision to come here. Guess I have Bethy to thank for that. (Thanks, Annabeth. Shut up, I'm not nice!)

"Wait, where's Percy," Reyna asked approaching us. She had some cherry shaved ice. I looked where Percy was sitting to reveal an empty space in the circle we had formed.

"He's gone? Also, hi Reyna, off duty?" I asked, being me.

"Yep. Also, did Percy bail or what?"

Nico stood up and looked around, "He's probably using the bathroom. Or getting seconds."

"Wouldn't he say something though?" I was done with my ice cream now and headed to throw in in the garbage can.

Looking back, I carefully scanned the area. He was nowhere to be seen. Had the doof really bailed on us?

Walking to the blanket I called, "Can't see him anywhere!"

I sat back down and Nico pulled out his phone, "I'll call him."

I heard the slightest whisper, "Peek-a-boo!"

"EEK!" Annabeth screeched at the top of her lungs and I heard an, "Ow!"

When I looked over, Percy was standing behind Annabeth, holding his nose, "What was that for?"

Annabeth was breathing pretty hard, "Excuse me? Do you know how much that scared me, holy crap!" She got up and started shoving Percy, "How was I supposed to get home, huh? I was so upset you little kelp head!"

Percy giggled, "Just like when we were kids, wise girl!"

I questioned, "Percy, where did you go?"

He turned to me, "Ah, I just went to talk to someone, no biggie. Where'd my creamed ice go?!"

Now, I had a tough time believing that. That might seem like a jump in logic, but when you know Percy as well as I do, 'no biggie' is the opposite.

"Annabeth." A voice spoke and it was Silena's. This whole time I hadn't really noticed her too much, but now she really stood out.

Her aura was undetectable. I couldn't read her at all. She seemed aggravated. But she didn't seem aggravated. It's hard to describe.

"Let's talk for a minute." Annabeth was dragged away before she could speak. I had a feeling she'd be fine, physically at least.

With Annabeth gone, I looked to see Percy's eyes full of remorse. "Percy, tell me the truth. Where were you? And, save it with your, 'no biggie' shtick.

He stared at me with a blank expression. Until after like 30 seconds, "Okay, fine. But please, don't tell Annabeth any of you."

Hey, Demigods!
