I do not own the PJO characters. Sorry for not posting yesterday or the day before, its been a chaotic couple of days.

The pizza was amazing, best pizza I've ever had before. "Feel free to grab another slice, we still have another pizza," Annabeth said as she gathered up her and Percy's dishes.

"Nah, I'm stuffed. Why'd you make three anyway?" I asked.

"With having four kids we go through food like nobody's business, it's good to have extra," Percy explained.

"Well Hazel should be here for you soon," Annabeth said as she came back to her more dishes, "Damian you can stay here and help Percy, he has a job for you two to work on."

"What?" I said as I grabbed Damian's hand, "no he's coming with me, right?"

"Trish, he doesn't have to be with you all the time, does he?" Leo said.

I just looked at Damian, I saw Annabeth glace at Percy as well. None of us knew how to respond, we just awkwardly sat there.

"How about you try and spend a little time away from each other," Annabeth said, "it'll be good for you."

"What!" I said, "no, I-I'm not going to go anywhere without him!"

"Sweetie, it'll be good to get away from each other for awhile," Calypso said.

"Have you two been apart since he saved you?" Percy asked.

"No, and I don't expect us to be apart," I huffed.

"We're sorry, we just care about you, we don't want you two to drive each other crazy," Annabeth apologized.

"Oh we drive each other crazy all right," Damian laughed, "we just deal with it. But just because we drive each other crazy doesn't mean we're going to be separated so easily."

"Well, you're definitely an odd couple," Leo notes.

"We're not a couple," we both growled and crossed our arms, which made us both laugh.

"Again, odd," Leo said as he got up, "Cal and I gotta go, see ya!" He walked out of the room and soon we heard the front door open and shut.

"Leo, wait!" Calypso yelled after him, "sorry we got to go, thanks for lunch." She then ran after her boyfriend.

Hazel came into the room watching as Calypso ran after Leo. "We're are they going in such a rush?"

"We don't know, Leo just up and left," Annabeth said as she sat down on Percy's lap.

Then Hazel turned to me, "so you ready to go?"

"Yeah, but Damian is going to, there's no discussion about it," I said.

"The more the merrier," Hazel smiled.

Thanks for reading! AN: sorry again for such a short chapter, I had an idea of what to write but not enough time. Stay safe and we hope you all are staying mostly healthy!
