Okay, sorry if I didn't get to update a little early, my computer kind of died on me, but hey! I'm back! And I won't be back anytime sooner; my mom won't buy me another computer, sad? Absolutely! So here's Chapter 14, please enjoy. You know what to do! Love you guys! Yeah!

The plane ride was awesome, the view down below, the ocean was so beautiful under the rays of the sun, glittering like well, glitter. It was unforgettable, especially the look on Percy's and Thalia's face. It was priceless, okay, I'm being mean, but it really was hilarious, Percy clutched my hand for dear life, and Thalia looked so pale, almost like a ghost, a beautiful ghost.

When we landed, their color didn't come back to normal until we set foot on land ourselves, both of them almost kissing the earth. They really are cousins. I stifled a laugh, as the two shot me daggers.

I stopped when a deep soothing voice came from somewhere, "Son!"

SEAWEED BRAIN :)

"Dad!" I called as I saw him nearing us. He had Amphitrite on his tail, and so were Tyson and Triton. While Dad and Tyson had smiles on their faces, Amphitrite and Triton had grimaces, preventing an eye roll.

"Percy! I'm glad you came over that instant!" said Dad then turned to Thalia, "Dear, are you feeling all right? You look like you've seen someone die." He asked.

Thalia clutched her stomach, clamped a hand on her mouth and ran to the nearest trash bin. "Triton, go help your cousin!" we heard Triton sputter words of disgust.

Someone held my hand from behind, steering me back to my girl and my dad. I looked back and found startling grey eyes looking at mine, a smile prominent. I couldn't help but grin at her.

"Ah! You must be Annie!" my father said, Annabeth looked at my dad then shot daggers at me, I shook my head saying 'I didn't tell him!' then pointed to the gagging Thalia.

"Annabeth, sir." She cleared then beamed a charming smile, which made me stare at her more.

"Very well, Annabeth. It's nice to finally meet my son's soon-to-be-wi-" I elbowed him lightly on his side. "What?" he looked at me and asked. Annabeth giggled, and it was cute, even Dad was amazed by the look of her face.

"It's girlfriend dad. G-I-R-L-F-R-I-E-N-D, girlfriend. " I explained.

"So you don't want to marry her someday?" he asked frankly.

My eyes grew big, "DAD!" I shouted.

"Just kidding, kiddo." He smiled, making his smile lines visible and patting me on my back. He turned back to Annabeth, "Nice meeting you again Annabeth. Come on let's get you all in the car."

"Guys! Wait up!" Luke yelled, I barely remembered he was there, well, I was too nervous about the flight and too busy sending daggers to Annabeth as she laughed hysterically at me and Thalia.

Luke stood next to Thalia, when he saw Triton next to her, he practically killed him with the look he was giving him. Thalia groaned loud which made Annabeth stifle a laugh. I nudged her to make her stop laughing; she just looked at me like some innocent little kid, man! This girl will be the cause of my death, I love her too much.

Someone clapped me behind and when I looked it was my Dad, "Perce, stop staring. You might melt her." Then laughed. I rolled my eyes and just continued to feel her presence (A/n: weird, right?) and interlaced my fingers with her.

"Percy," she called, I looked up at her and saw her breath knocking smile, and she leaned in and pecked me on my cheek. "Thanks." I cocked my head curiously, "For what?" I asked. "For introducing me to your Dad, I appreciate it." she beamed and pulled me along.

We arrived at my father's house after a few minutes' drive. His house was built next to the beach, my father and I share our love of the sea. We also look-alike, a lot, though he has a deeper tan and a bigger build than mine. Anyway, my father's house or kingdom as he calls it, has only three floors but widely spread, the ground floor was only a few meters away from the beach. My room is on the second floor, and it overlooks the sea, and for some reason my dad made Annabeth stay in mine with ME. The second floor was where all the rooms are while the third floor was my favorite, the terrace it overlooks everything, from the sea to the beautiful landscape. (A/n: Okay, I'm bad at describing landscapes :) sorry!)

"I'm sorry you're stuck here –I pointed to the room- with me." I apologized.

She looked up at me and cupped my cheek, "It's okay Seaweed Brain, don't worry about it." She said as I helped her bring her luggage in the room. I grinned, what? I'm happy, okay? Can't you just let it slip without anything going in your mind? Ugh!

Annabeth ran to the balcony and gasped, "Wow! It's beautiful!" she looked back at me, her smile unyielding. But you're much more beautiful, I thought. Her eyes scanned the beauty before her eyes and so did I.

"Annabeth! Come on!" someone over the balcony called, I guessed it was Thalia. "Come on Percy! Let's go to the beach!" she said in sheer excitement, almost jumping.

"Sure," I said. "Go change in the bathroom, I'll wait for you here." Her smile widened then made a beeline for the bathroom. A few minutes after came an Annabeth in pair of shorts and white loose top with some flip-flops under a gray bikini. She makes everything so simple look so… perfect. "Let's go!" she said then practically dragged me downstairs, where Thalia and Luke were waiting. (A/n:sorry can't process much)

"Come on Percy!" she called.

"What's the hurry?" I asked running next to her.

"I… uh- I…" Annabeth stuttered, wait she stuttered? My brows knitted together, she leaned close to my ear, "I just want to spend every second with you, don't you want me to?" she asked.

Okay, that surprised me. What's with her today? She's not her usual self. "Of course I want to, but – "

"No buts, Seaweed Brain!" she intercepted, "why can't you just let me spend my small vacation with you in peace?" she crossed her arms in front of her chest then shot me a look.

"Okay! Okay!" I said as I threw my hands in the air. "Were going to have tons of fun, Okay?" I placed my hands on her shoulders and twirled her around so she faces the sea ahead. I wrapped my hands around her shoulder then rested my chin on her head, she smelled of lemons. I couldn't stop myself and kissed her cheek, unsatisfied, I continued to her lips. Her hands rested on my arms.

"Get a room you two!" Thalia yelled. I kissed her one more time before hugging her closer to me. Annabeth giggled in front, I couldn't resist nuzzling her neck, so I did, which made her stiffen.

"Fish face! Can I borrow my best friend now?" Thalia asked as she walked to where we were standing, Luke behind her, eyeing Annabeth.

"One more second." I said then raised my hand toward them and kissed her again tucking the loose strands of her hair behind her ear. "I love you." I said between our lips then released her from my grasp. She pushed me playfully then rolled her eyes. I caught Thalia's eye roll and Luke's pissed look.

"We know!" Thalia said matter-of-factly. Annabeth just laughed. "Come on, Annie. Let's swim!" she told her as she shot a look of annoyance towards me. I stifled a chuckle. They ran towards the sea, Luke following them. Why do I have the feeling that I belong to their little group? I frowned.

"Percy! Come on! The water's fine!" Annabeth called, I smiled and ran towards them.

ANNABETH

We played in the water for a long time, Percy and I even discovered a nearby rock formation not far away from the house but far away from sight. We stayed there for a couple of minutes and hid from Thalia and Luke.

"Annabeth?" Percy called behind me, offering his hand, I took it automatically and interlaced it with mine, and then I looked up at his face and saw it was grim.

"Percy? What's with the long face?" I asked.

He smiled, "It's nothing."

I don't want to press him on, so I left it at that, he can tell me when he's ready. I smiled at him weakly then stroked his damp hair then went to his jaw, which made him lean towards me. His other hand removed mine from his jaw and intertwines it with his. I felt the ghost of his lips-

"There you guys are!" Luke said behind us."Thalia's been looking for you two!"

Percy shot him daggers, and if his eyes were real daggers Luke's probably dead by now. "Uh- we'll be right there." I said running my thumbs on the back of his hands. Percy pouted, he looked so damn cute! Darn it I don't have my phone! "Come on Perce, let's go back to the house, Thalia's gonna toast us both." He chuckled softly and gave me a chaste kiss.

We walked back to his father's house hand in hand.

In front of the house, waiting was not Percy's dad or stepmom but his cousin, my best friend Thalia Grace, her arms crossed and with a "you're dead" look on her pretty face.

"Hey Thals!" I greeted her.

"Don't 'Hey Thals' me!" she outbursts.

"What are you angry for?" I asked her nicely.

"Hmm… let's see… one minute we were playing in the waters then another minute you're gone! Now tell me not to be freaked about? I thought you… you drowned!" she explained.

I looked back at Percy and motioned for him to leave. When I was sure Percy or Luke was in no hearing range I pulled Thalia and hugged her tight. "I'm so sorry Thals."

"I know you just want to spend time with Fish brain, but next time could you give me the heads up before leaving? So I don't freak out?" she asked.

I smiled at her, "Of course, I'm sorry Thals, you know I love ya."

She rolled her eyes at me smirking, "Yeah I know, I know, I do too."

"By the way, what happened with Luke while we we're gone?" I asked, curious, wagging my eyebrows at her.

"Nothing! Annabeth!" she said exasperated but blushing.

"Okay!" I said as I threw my hands up in defense.

PERCY

Annabeth was talking with Thalia outside so I came inside to see my Dad on the couch, sipping a glass of- I dunno iced tea perhaps? - waiting for me to come near.

"Uh… Dad?" he motioned for me to sit next to him. Okay, weird much?

"Percy," he started. "I missed you. I'm sorry I haven't given you your gift yet, but I have it parked in the garage, if you want to use It." he said sipping his iced tea again- wait did he say parked?

A smile etched on my face, I turned to face him, and like magic, his hand with the iced tea was now holding a small box. "Seriously?" I asked.

"Yep." He replied, I reached for the box but he moved it away. "Hep, we still need to talk before you can get your car."

"About what?" I asked.

"I don't like giving this but you leave me no choice." He said reluctantly.

"No. No. NO. NO. NO! Are you serious?"

"I'm sorry Percy, but your mom couldn't do it, so she told me I have to give it to you."

My hand instinctively landed on my face, I groaned in protest. "Not the TALK!" I may have looked defeated, for old Poseidon here is stifling a laugh.

"Hmm…. How should I start?" he asked himself.

"Just kill me already!" I groaned. He laughed and circled my shoulder with his arm.

"That's no fun! And as your father I have the right to purposely make your life happy and embarrassing." He teased, I groaned again. "When I was your age, my father didn't even bother with me and your uncles…."

After a long embarrassing talk with my father about his and my soon to be sex life he finally stopped, finally! Just in time, as Thalia, Annabeth and Luke walked in.

"Percy, Thalia, Luke and I are going in town, would you like to come?" Annabeth asked.

"Sure! I'll just go change." I answered, Dad grabbed my arm and whispered, "I forgot to tell ya, I got you prepared little man, I got you a box, second drawer to the left." He laughed and threw me the box containing the keys to my new car.

"Dad!" I yelled after him.

"You can thank me later! After you use it." he stood up, clapped me on the back then winked at me.

Okay, I know I'm crimson red now, and I can't help it! Wait, he said thank him later… DAMN IT!

I ran upstairs, took a short shower and changed clothes. I looked at the said drawer and yes, it was there. (Gulp) and there was a note attached to it.

Use it well kiddo.
Love always,
Your Old Man

Okay, do you want Percy to use it? haha just tell me! Yes or no! I would love to know what your decision is! See you next time people! Love always, WEIRDO :)
