~Annabeth~
I pulled open my silver laptop, and began working on an addition for Thalia's dojo. I glanced over at a picture of me, her, and Percy, taken at our wedding. Thalia was wearing a blue dress that matched her eyes, and I was wearing a silver dress. Percy was in the middle, his arms wrapped around us, and wearing a mix of green and blue. All three of us were smiling. I looked back to my laptop, noting the time. Thalia and Percy should be getting home soon. I thought. As if on cue, the door opened. I quickly put my laptop away, and got under the covers, feigning sleep. I felt two pairs of arms around me, and a pair of lips on my forehead.
"Hey Wise Girl." Percy's soft voice greeted me. I turned over, pretending to yawn. "What have you been doing?" Thalia asked, as she and Percy both changed. "Just working. How was work?" I responded, snuggling close to my lovers. "I caught a couple of muggers. You know, the usual." Percy said. "Yeah, I need to implement new material into my forms. I think the students are starting to get bored." Thalia added. I smiled. "Come on, we need to get some sleep for tomorrow. I don't know about you, but I can't wait to get back to camp." Percy commented. I grinned, and kissed him. Percy wrapped his arms around me, returning the kiss. Thalia got into the bed on my right, and Percy was on my left. "Do you want to be in the middle, Seaweed Brain?" I asked. "No. I was in the middle last night, remember?" He responded. I shrugged. "Good night." I whispered. "Good night, Wise Girl." Both of my lovers replied, kissing me softly.
~The next day, Percy~
I woke up when I felt my wives shift, and got up. "Good morning, my beautiful girls." I greeted Thalia and Annabeth. "Good morning to you too." Thalia responded. We stayed wrapped up in each other for a couple of minutes, before I went to take a shower. I grinned as I felt the water boost my energy. I got out, noting my lovers must have already changed, seeing their crumpled pajamas in the hamper. I walked out into the kitchen. I frowned when I heard Annabeth's worried voice. She was wearing jeans, and one of my green shirts. Her gorgeous blonde hair was pulled up in Princess Leia buns. Thalia's black hair was messy, but my wife didn't seem to care. She was wearing one of my shorts, and my blue shirt. Why is everyone wearing my clothes today? I mused. Not that I minded.
"No, Nico." Annabeth snapped. I noted the spatula in her hand, and looked over to the stove. I grinned. Blue pancakes. I vaguely heard Nico's voice in the background. "She'll tell Percy when she's ready, Corpse Breath." Thalia growled. I had to bite my lip to keep from laughing. Nico said something else, but I couldn't hear it. "I'll tell him after the camp fire tonight. Promise." Annabeth sighed. "How are Will and Jason?" Thalia questioned. I smiled. Jason, Nico, and Will had been in a relationship for almost four years now. Nico was the one who brought Jason back from death, using Orpheus's method. "I can't wait to meet her!" Annabeth gasped in shock. I frowned. Who? I thought. "We'll see you later. Have a good day." Thalia commented. Nico's voice shouted something, before the call disconnected. Annabeth closed her eyes, as Thalia wrapped her arms around our wife.
I walked into the kitchen. "What was that about?" I asked, announcing my presence. Both of my wives jumped, Annabeth actually dropping her spatula. She glared at me. "Just stuff." She replied. "Like what?" I pressed. "You'll find out later." Thalia added. I raised my eyebrow, waiting for more. I shrugged. "As long as everything is alright." I commented. "Everything is alright. Now, Annie made breakfast. Are you hungry?" Thalia responded. "I am, but I'm going to finish packing early." I said. I frowned at Annabeth's silence. "Wise Girl, you know you can tell me if anything is wrong, right? I love you, forever." I added, squeezing her small hand. She smiled at me, but didn't say anything. I kissed her forehead softly, before heading back into our room.
~Annabeth~
As Percy left, I released a breath I didn't realize I was holding. Thalia kissed me. "Don't worry, he'll be over the moon." She soothed me. "But what if he isn't? What if-" I was cut off as Thalia hugged me. "He loves us, forever. Don't worry, princess." Thalia murmured. I shook, as Thalia rubbed my back gently. After breakfast, the three of us got into Percy's Honda CRV. He sat in the driver's seat, and I was in the passenger's seat. "Will you be alright back there, love?" Percy wondered. Thalia smiled at us. "I'll be fine. Don't worry about it." She responded. Percy shrugged, and started the SUV. It was only a short drive, about a half hour or so, give or take traffic time. Once we pulled up to the border, I frowned. "Seaweed Brain, do you see that?" I asked, as he abruptly parked the car.
A horde of different monsters were attacking the border. Peleus was blowing them away with his fire breath, but more kept coming. That wasn't what worried me. The monsters actually seemed to be working together. Thalia pulled out her spear and shield. "Go to the Big House." She said, as Percy leapt out of the car, Riptide in hand. "But I can fight." I protested. She looked at me, and I shivered under the intensity of her blue gaze. "I'm not risking anything happening to you. Go, or I'll drag you there kicking and screaming." She snapped. I nodded, before kissing her. "Be careful." I whispered. "Always am." She responded. I snorted, before running to the Big House. I saw Chiron. "Chiron, you know there's monsters at the border, right?" I said. "Yes, but the border patrol is taking care of it." He responded in his grandfatherly tone of voice. "Why aren't you fighting?" He asked. I flinched. Before I could respond, I heard someone yelling. "Chiron, we need some ambrosia and nectar!" Thalia shouted.
She held Percy, and he was bleeding. From where, I couldn't tell. He had an arm around Thalia, and I noticed his forehead was red. He was also holding his stomach with his other arm. I rushed over, and took hold of Percy. "What happened?" The old centaur asked, as we put Percy down. "The stupid Kelp Head was being idiotic, like usual." Thalia growled angrily, her hand sparking with blue lightning. "If I hadn't gotten that hellhound, those children would've been dust." Percy retorted, before wincing. Chiron walked over, looking at my husband's injuries. "What happened?" I repeated. "He jumped in front of a hellhound that almost attacked two new campers. He let the hellhound bite him before killing it." Thalia explained. "You stupid Seaweed Brain!" I exclaimed. Percy shrugged. "What was I supposed to do, let them become dog toys?" He retorted. I sighed, shaking my head. "What were they even doing there anyways?" I questioned. Thalia shrugged. "With a day of rest, and some ambrosia and nectar, you should be good to go for your sword fighting class tomorrow." Chiron informed Percy.
Percy nodded, before closing his eyes. Just then, Nico, Will, and Jason walked in. I grinned. "Hey guys." I greeted. "Hey, how are you?" Nico responded, smiling. "Pretty good." Thalia said. "Perce, you okay bro? What happened?' Jason questioned, seeing our injured lover. "What do you think happened?" Thalia snarked. "Let me guess, playing the hero?" Will questioned. Percy nodded. "Annabeth, can I talk to you?" Nico asked, gesturing for me to follow him. "Yeah." I responded. "Have you told Percy yet?" He asked, once we were on the porch. I shook my head. "You said you had someone for us to meet?" I questioned, changing the subject. He grinned. "Yeah, our daughter." He stated. I smiled, and hugged him tightly. "Congratulations." I said. He smiled. "Now, let's go heal your husband." He said. We walked back in.
Percy smiled at me, his beautiful sea green eyes filled with love. Thalia squeezed my hand. She got up. "Where are you going?" I asked. "To get those kids back to their cabin." She responded. I nodded. Thalia left, and Jason looked at me. "So how have you guys been?" He questioned. "Pretty good." I said. "We saw a good movie a week ago, and we haven't seen any monsters in a while." Percy added. Before Jason could respond, Thalia came back. "Who are the new campers?" Nico questioned. "I don't know. Grover brought them here about two weeks ago, from what I know. They're siblings. The girl is six, and the boy is five. And as far as I know, they haven't been claimed yet. They should not have been near the hill. They should have been at the Unclaimed Cabin." Thalia explained, frowning. "Where are they now?" Jason asked. "The Ares girl leading the defense took them back to the Unclaimed Cabin. I hope they get claimed soon." Thalia responded. I nodded. "Was there anyone else hurt?" Will asked. "No, everyone is fine, just shaken." She replied.
She looked at me, her eyes bright blue. "Annie, we need to talk outside." Thalia requested. She took my hand, and practically dragged me away. I winced slightly at her tight grip. "What's wrong?" I asked, concerned. Was Percy more injured than he let on? It would be like him to downplay something. Is he okay? "What happened?" I questioned. Thalia took a breath. "We may have a problem." She stated, and worry filled me. "It's about the new campers." Thalia added, looking nervous. "Spit it out!" I demanded. Thalia nodded. "The new campers look a lot like Percy." All I could do was stare in shock. "How in the Hades is that possible?!" I demanded again.
Thalia shrugged. "I have no clue, but we should get back to Percy." She kissed my cheek, and we walked back to our lover, who was in his cabin. He smiled tiredly at us. "Hey loves." He reached his hand out. I leaned down to kiss him, which he gladly reciprocated. "Shall we go to dinner?" Thalia smiled. Percy nodded, and I helped our husband stand up. I wrapped my arms around his waist as we sat down at the Couples Table, a special table for married demigods and their families to sit at, that was put in after the Giant War. Jason, Will, and Nico were sitting there with a blonde girl. I blinked. "Hi!" Jason waved happily. I smiled back. "And who is this?" I gestured to the girl. "Our daughter!" Will explained. Nico looked happier than I had ever seen him. The girl smiled shyly. "Hi! I'm Abigail Grace." She said softly.
Thalia smiled. "Hi. I'm your Auntie Thalia." She replied, holding her hand out. Abigail looked away shyly, and Thalia dropped her hand, tilting her head. Jason chuckled as he ruffled his daughter's hair. "She's rather shy. Don't take it personally." He explained. I smiled. "It's alright." I chuckled, pulling my blonde hair back. "Oh Percy, how's Estelle doing?" Nico asked, tilting his head. Percy grinned broadly. "She's doing great, last I talked to her. She was at another astronomy conference." He explained. Estelle Blofis was Percy's mortal half sister. She could see through the Mist and she was also a gifted astronomer. "What's her favorite constellation?" Nico asked curiously. Percy looked somber for a moment. "The Huntress." He said softly. Jason blinked, and looked at Thalia. "Is that…?" He trailed off. Thalia nodded. "Yeah, Zoe." She said, as soft as our husband. I cleared my throat. "How old is Abigail?" I quickly changed the subject. Nico smiled, and ruffled his daughter's hair. She was reading a book, and I giggled softly. "She's 12." Nico answered.
The playing catch up game continued until dinner was over. Percy yawned softly, and rubbed his eyes. Thalia chuckled. "Come on Annie, let's get Kelp Head here back to Poseidon Cabin." I stuck my tongue out at Thalia for the use of my nickname. Percy yawned, and stood up, wobbling slightly. I instantly wrapped my arms around my husband's waist. Thalia held Percy against her side. "Come on." Thalia kissed Percy's cheek, and he smiled. We soon reached the Poseidon Cabin, and changed into our pajamas. Percy smiled. "Goodnight, my loves~" He curled under the blankets.
Thalia quickly drifted off to sleep, but I stayed up, working on my laptop, sighing softly. I ran a hand through my hair. There was a tiny knock on the door, and I instantly put my laptop down, and grabbed my drakon bone sword, making my way to the door. I opened the door, looking around nervously. I heard a small squeak, and I looked down, spotting the two kids who Percy had saved. I put my sword away, sighing in relief. I squatted down. The boy had jet black hair and sea green eyes. He was wearing an oversized CHB shirt, and pajama bottoms. The girl had more brown hair, but her eyes were sea green as well. She was wearing a green shirt, and pajama bottoms too. I smiled. "Hey kids. What are your names?" I asked softly. The boy looked over at my husband. "Is Mr Jackson okay?" He asked, instead of answering my question.
I nodded. "He's just sleeping. He got a little hurt, but he's perfectly alright." I promised. "I'm Amy." The girl spoke up, looking nervous. "This is my brother, Andrew." She added, and Andrew waved shyly. "Can we come in and see Mr Jackson, please?" Andrew asked. I hesitated, then nodded. "Alright, little ones. Just be very quiet." I led the little kids inside. Thalia had apparently woken up, and she looked at me curiously, before looking at the kids. I put my index finger against my lip, and she shrugged. Amy peeked at my sleeping husband, tilting her head. "He's handsome." She said shyly, and I couldn't help but giggle softly. Andrew pulled a face, before tilting his head in the same way his sister did. "He has my hair." He mumbled, and the bed creaked. Percy mumbled something as he woke up, blinking his sea green eyes at me. "Wise Girl, why are the kids from earlier here?" He asked, rubbing his eyes as he spotted Andrew and Amy. Amy looked down at her feet, and I smiled. "They wanted to come and see if you were okay." I explained for the twins, and they both nodded shyly.
Percy smiled, and looked at Andrew and Amy. "I'm A-okay." He promised. He tilted his head. "What are your names?" He asked softly. "I'm Amy, this is Andrew. We're twins." Amy replied, just as soft. Percy smiled again. He then blinked as he noticed the similarities between himself and the twins. "Oh wow." He said, smiling brightly. Soon, the cabin was filled with a bright green glow, and two holographic tridents appeared over the twins. The glowing woke up Thalia, who stared in surprise as she spotted the tridents. "Oh my Gods." Thalia said softly. "Mister, what does that mean?" Amy asked, scared. Percy smiled down at the two kids. "It means we're half siblings on our father's side. Do you know who your father is?" He replied. Both twins shook their heads. "Papa always said he died in a boating accident." Amy said.
I blinked. Percy smiled slightly. "My mom told me something similar when I was a little older than you guys. Our father is Poseidon, God of The Seas." He explained. Andrew looked at Amy. "Well, that explains a lot of our weirdness." He commented, and Amy nodded, yawning softly as she rubbed her eyes. I smiled. "You guys are staying in Hestia's Cabin, right?" I asked. The twins nodded. "Okay, go and get your stuff from there, and move into here." I smiled. After the twins moved into the Poseidon Cabin, Percy stretched. "Let's go tell Chiron, babe." He said, kissing my head gently. Thalia stood up too. "Don't go without me." She said firmly, before shooting a glance at my stomach.
I sighed, and helped Percy get out of bed. The three of us soon made our way to the Big House, where Chiron and Mr. D were talking about something. Mr. D's eyes were shining purple behind his glasses. Thalia cleared her throat, and the two men turned to us. "Percy! Annabeth! Thalia! You should be sleeping!" Chiron blinked in confusion. "Indeed. What do you guys want at this late hour?" Dionysus drawled, eyes still glowing. Thalia rolled her eyes at her half brother. "If you must know, the twins that Percy saved this morning, they've been claimed." She said simply. Chiron and Dionysus looked up sharply. "Who is their parent?" Dionysus asked. Percy smiled. "Mine. They're my half siblings." He replied.
Dionysus did a spit take in surprise, and Chiron blinked rapidly. "Lord Poseidon has had other children?" He asked. Percy nodded. "Apparently so." He replied, crossing his arms. Dionysus rubbed his temples. "Father won't be happy about that." He grunted. Percy raised a brow. "Well, Zeus doesn't really have any room to talk, given all the myths." He pointed out. Thunder boomed loudly, and Percy just snorted. "Mind your tongue." Dionysus warned. Thalia rolled her eyes. "Half brother, if it weren't for Dad's ways, neither of us would be here." She pointed out. "Anyways!" I changed the subject quickly. "We've already moved the twins to Percy's Cabin, we just thought you should know." I added, before shots were fired, so to speak. Chiron nodded. "Thank you for telling us, we'll make the announcement at breakfast." The old centaur sighed.
I stood up. "We'll see you tomorrow then." I said, holding Thalia's and Percy's hands. I practically dragged my lovers back to Percy's cabin before anything else could go wrong. When we got back, the kids were already fast asleep in the same bed, holding each other close. I smiled at the sight. Percy looked dead on his feet. "Come on, it's been a long day." I murmured softly. Thalia nodded, and pulled the covers back for the three of us. "Σε αγαπώ, περισσότερο από τη δική μου ζωή." Percy whispered in Ancient Greek. I beamed, and kissed him. Then, the three of us shared a passionate kiss. I cuddled in between my lovers.
I was usually the one in the middle. "Καληνύχτα, αγαπητοί μου άγγελοι." He added, smiling. "Καληνύχτα, Πέρσι." Thalia and I replied, before curling into each other. Thalia and Percy wrapped their arms around my waist, and I yawned softly, closing my eyes. Tomorrow. I'll tell Percy about my pregnancy tomorrow. I vowed, before I heard my lovers snoring softly. I smiled, and soon fell asleep myself.
