Hey-

So long time no update. Nobody really probably cared though so... Anyways enjoy

DISCLAIMER: Siriusly?

I woke up the day of the gift exchange. Which also happened to be the same day of Christmas. HoLY HaDEs! Today's Christmas. I shot up into

a sitting position and rolled out of bed. I ran into my mom's room, and as I do every year, I jumped on her bed. "Mom! Mom! Get up! It's

Christmas!" I said. She sat up and smiled. "A good morning would do little sir." she said, "And merry Christmas. This jumping on the bed thing

will never get old, huh?" I got off the bed and pulled my mom off with me. "Nope!" I ran down the stairs and took a seat on the sofa. My mom

came down right after me. As she entered the living area she had a coughing fit. "Are you okay mom?" I asked. "I'm good Perce. Let's open

presents now!" I ran to the tree while my mom put on Cartoon Network. There's nothing better than Saturday morning cartoons, only it's not

Saturday so more like Tuesday morning cartoons. She walked over to the tree and sat down next to me. "Hey Perce, your gift is arriving right

now so I have to bring it in. Wait until you open anything." she said as she left to get the door. I waited for my mom as I scrolled through my

phone looking for anything new. I opened Snapchat and snapped a photo to Annabeth saying merry Christmas. She then replied with a quick

snap saying, "U too, Seaweed Brain." "I want you to open this one first before we get to anything." she said as she walked in. I looked up and

ran to her. We sat down on the floor and my mom passed the box to me. I opened and whoomph I was knocked to the floor. I got back up and

then I was attacked with a bunch of wet licks on my face. "Mom! I can't believe that you got me a puppy!" she got up and went to the table to

retrieve a collar. "Yup! You've been wanting one since that one year when I took you out Christmas shopping." she said as she was putting on

the collar, "Her name is Ms. O'Leary. Your uncle Harry's coworker's dog just had a litter of puppies and he told me about them. So I went over to

their house one day and took a look at all the puppies. They were no longer attached to the mother and were all trained. And then I saw the

smallest one of them. There's nothing wrong with Ms. O'Leary but since she was the smallest they gave me her for free. She was just so

adorable. Anyways, Ms. O'Leary's a French Bulldog." I stood up and opened my other presents which were all supplies for Ms. O'Leary. I

opened up the dog treats and split one in half. I sat back down next to my mom and I waved the treat and called for Ms. O'Leary. She trotted to

me and I picked her up and put her next to me. "Hey girl. Wanna treat?" I stuck out my palm and held the treat out. She looked at the treat and

then at me. Soon afterwards she accepted the treat and barked happily. She licked my face and jumped into my lap. I laughed and scratched

her under her ear. "Alright then, I should start making breakfast now. Today's going to be a busy day. Perce, can you list out the things we have

to get done?" My mom said as she got up to go to the kitchen. "Umm, I have to go the the Holiday party that Piper's throwing at noon. Then we

have to take Thalia, Jason, and Nico to the family holiday party. And then Annabeth and her siblings are staying over because her parents have

something to take care of in Chicago for a few days." I heard my mom sigh as she started to make some bacon and eggs. I pick up Ms. O'Leary

and put her on the ground. I walked into the kitchen and washed the food bowl that mom had bought for her. "How much food do I have to give

'her?" I asked "Grab the ½ cap measurer and scoop ½ a cup into the bowl" she replied as she set our food onto the table. I grab the ½ cup

measurer and measure out the food into the bowl. "Here you go, Ms. O'Leary" I set the food down next to her and I sat down at the table to eat.

"After you finish eating, I want you to go upstairs and take a shower and get ready to go out, okay? Oh, and also, dress nicely please Percy."

mom said as she ate her food. "Okay, mom. Is it okay if we take Ms. O'Leary?" I asked as I finished up my food. "That's okay with me, don't

forget to take her out though. She hasn't gone her walk yet." "Okay" I replied as I got up and walked to the kitchen. I washed my dishes and

came to a realization. "Oh. You want me to go out and collect her poop?" My mom chuckled and came into the kitchen to wash her own dishes.

"Yes, Percy. Now go, she looks very impatient." I dried my hands and ran upstairs to my room and grabbed a sweater and some shoes. I came

back downstairs and put the leash on Ms. O'Leary. "You ready to go, girl?" She barked happily and I laughed with her. "We'll be back soon!" I

yelled as I left the house. "Okay, call if there is a problem." I walked down the porch as Ms. O'Leary pulled me along. She pulled on the leash

and I lost grip of her leash. As the leash fell out of my hand she ran across the street and I scrambled to grab her. "Hey! Hey- Ms. O'Leary! Get

back!"

I hoped you liked this chapter. This one took no time at all really, I just had a writers block and didn't touch this story. I've been writing something else to publish after I finished this.

If you have suggestions or criticism, PM or leave a review. Oh and also tell me if I should continue this story because I really have no more motivation for this story.

Thanks for spending your time a reading this.

See you somewhere
