HEY YOU GAISE!
I'm on spring breakkk!
But I have to fly to my dad's saturday, so I'm going to try to update a few times until then, but I doubt that I'll update once I'm there to be honest.
BUT PLEASE REVIEW IT MAKES ME WANT TO WRITE! Like 350 reviews would be awesome :)
Anyway, I watched daddy daycare last night, and it kinda triggered this.
So please review if you want to read more! :)
Annabeth POV:
"Annabeth, please come with me to the canoeing classes." Percy complained. "I need someone to help me with these kids." He groaned, slumping onto the table at the dining pavilion. "They're all little monsters." He said in a muffled voice, since he basically had his arms over his head.
I looked over at Grace, who was sitting in her highchair next to the table, eating cheerios. "Percy, you do realize that you are a dad, right? You should be fine with little kids. You're usually great with them.
Nico and Rachel scooted in next to me, holding their trays with breakfast on it.
"What're we talking about?" Rachel asked, taking a bite of her toast.
"Yeah, what's wrong with Jackson?" Nico asked, pointing with butter knife at Percy.
I put some more cheerio's on Grace's tray. "Percy wants me to help him with the 'guppies' canoeing group." I said, rolling my eyes.
"Oh my gods. You poor soul." Rachel gasped.
"What?" I asked, looking at her. "What's wrong with them?"
"They are the most vicious and annoying 6 to 9 year old from the Ares, Apollo, Hermes, and Aphrodite cabins. Mr. D only gives them to head counselors that he hates." Nico shuttered. "I had them once last spring. I wanted to kill myself."
Percy groaned something, and then sat up and picked Grace up out of her high chair, and sat her on his lap.
"Why can't all little kids be a great as you?" Percy asked her. She looked at him, and then attempted to palm one of the biscuits on his breakfast plate. Percy took it out of her hand, and then cut it into little pieces so that she could eat them.
"Alright, I'll help you with the children from hades." I sighed, looking at Percy. "But we will need someone to babysit Grace." I said.
"Oh, I'll do it!" Rachel immediately volunteered.
"Oh, okay, great." I said. "Percy, we should probably get going then." I said, getting up out of my seat.
"Don't seem so eager." He told me. "They'll steal your soul." He said.

Percy and I stood on the docks with a group of 15 6 through 9 year olds as the rain poured down on us. Usually, it never rained at camp. But apparently Dionysus decided it was too dry, and chose to douse us in water, right as we were planning on going canoeing.
Of course, it wouldn't have really been a problem for Percy and I to go canoeing in the rain, because we had canoed in much worse circumstances, and Percy was able to will himself to stay dry.
But none of that really mattered if you had a large group of little kids.
"We should probably go to the dining pavilion and try to play a game there or something." I whispered in Percy's ear.
Percy nodded. He clapped his hands together, and smiled at the group of kids who all looked extremely put out.
"Who wants to play a game?" Percy asked them. They all said nothing, they just stared at us with big eyes. "We'll get out of the rain." He added.
I only heard a few sniffles and a few kids cough. "C'mon, let's go." I said. "Race to the dining pavilion!" I said.
The kids all started shuffling forward, but none of the tried to race.
Once we got to the dining pavilion, Percy and I made hot chocolate for all the kids, who all drank it in silence.
While we were passing everything out, I leaned next to Percy. "They seem pretty fine to me." I whispered into Percy's ear.
Percy looked at me like I was disturbed. "You just wait." He said shakily.
I turned around to pass out more drinks to the kids, until one pulled on my ponytail.
I grimaced, and turned to face the little girl who'd done it. "Yes?" I asked, looking at her.
She shook her cup that was empty, and smiled a fake smile. "I need more."
Definitely Aphrodite, I thought.
"Please?" I said, looking at her.
"Yes." She said flatly, staring at me.
"HEY BLONDIE!" I heard someone on the other side of me call. I looked around and saw a husky looking 7 year old looking at me.
I looked up at Percy who was gritting his teeth while he passed out more cups. "Her name is Annabeth, Taylor." Percy said.
"Sure." He mumbled. "Why are you so short?" He asked me.
"Excuse me?" I asked, taken slightly off guard by his strange question.
"Why are you so short? You look like a sissy." He said.
"I doubt sissy's win a war with a titan." I mumbled, brushing off his comment.
After Percy and I had given everyone as much hot chocolate as they could drink, he stood up on a table.
"Let's play a game!" He said enthusiastically, but sadly, nobody reacted. "Alrighty then.." He muttered. "It's a game where you say what animal you'd be if you were one, and what you'd do." Percy said. "I used to play it at school."
One little girl shot her hand up in the air. I pointed at her. "Alright, you. What's your name?" I asked.
"Lydia." She said. I guessed she was from Apollo by her blonde hair and by her music note bow in her hair.
"Alright, Lydia, what animal would you be?" Percy asked her.
"I'd be a drum." She said very seriously.
"What? That's not an animal." Percy said. "Think of another one."
"IT IS AN ANIMAL!" She screamed. "YOU'RE ALL LYING!" and then she sat down, crossed her arms and stared at Percy and I.
"Okay, someone with an animal that's not a drum" I asked.
An 8 year old boy raised his hand. "Okay, you. Blake." Percy said. "What animal would you be?"
"I'd be a raccoon." Blake said.
"That's cool." Percy said. "And if you were a raccoon, what would you do?"
Blake thought for a moment. "I'd eat the famers corpse." He said.
I chuckled slightly. "You mean crops." I smiled. Blake looked at Percy and I very seriously.
"I know what I said." He replied, his eyes wide.
"Can you talk to unicorns Because you can talk to horses." One kid asked, as he banged on the table with his mug very loudly.
"Um, no." Percy answered. "Why are you banging that on the table."
"I always do this until someone answers me." He said.
"We put frogs in Max's shoes!" A little boy most likely from Hermes announced.
"You were supposed to keep that a secret Ryan!" a girl, most likely his sister called. "Do you even know what secret's are?" She yelled.
Ryan stood up on the table looking very angry and yelled "SECRETS ARE FROGS!"

Percy and I both ran to Rachel when we saw she had Grace.
"Thank the gods good children still exist." I breathed, picking up Grace. She seemed pretty tired, and looked like she was falling asleep.
Percy put his arms around the two of us. "If I ever am asked if I can control pee again I'm going to go postal." He breathed.
"Mr. D wanted to know if you could take the guppy group for the rest of the week." Rachel laughed.
"Tell him I'd rather be shot in the foot." I told her.
"Really?" she said.
"No. But tell him we're not going to do it." Percy answered for me.
So it's kinda weird right? I know. But hopefully you guys liked it. AND REVIEW PLEASE! :)
Thanks, AnnaKate :)
