Cole's POV

After we humiliated those two boys, Hannah and I went off to the beach to spend some time alone. As we walked along the beach I realized that we had never actually been on a date alone. We were always with the Hunt. I decided that I would take her on a date. We sat with my back against a log on the beach and just admired the peace and beauty of it. I held Hannah between my legs with my arms wrapped around her. I put my chin on her head and thought about what I should do.

"What are you thinking about Cole?" She asked me.

"Hmm? Oh not much just how long we have been together and we have never been on an actual date." I said.

"We don't have to. We both know that it's been busy with taking on monsters and all the stuff that's gone on. And this is kind of like a date." She replied.

"I know but still I want to do something for you." I told her kissing her hair.

"I am going to talk to Percy about something I'll see you later tonight." I said to her lifting her up. When she was up she turned and leaned down to help me up. I looked up and kissed her.

"I love you Banana." I said before grabbing her hand and getting up. She smiled at me and then pushed me into the sand surprising me. She laughed at my expression and ran away. I grin and shook my head chasing after her, changing into a wolf. I quickly caught her and lunged changing back into a human and tackling her into the water. She shrieked and I laughed when we got up. She then started to splash me and I splashed back. Then I grabbed her pinning her arms down and lifted her spinning her around. She started hitting me playfully laughing and telling me to put her down. I relented and set her down spinning her around so she was facing me. I kissed her again and said, "I am going to plan our first date. I'll see you later tonight."

"What should I wear?" Hannah asked.

"You can wear whatever you want you look good in anything babe." I said winking at her. She giggled and pushes me away.

"Okay, okay go and plan our date." She said smiling.

I smiled walking away thinking I was the luckiest guy in the world. I then went to go look for Percy. I needed to plan a date and figured he could help me with some stuff. I started off to Artemis cabin hoping he would be back there with Artemis. I walked deep in thought not really paying attention.

"Having fun little brother?" I heard a voice startling me.

"What? Oh hey Zoe." I looked up and saw her smirking at me with a knowing expression. I figured she had seen me and Hannah having fun and blushed.

"What are you thinking about?" She asked.

"I'm trying to plan a date for Hannah and I. We have been dating for a little over a year and have never actually been on a date yet. I have a place in mind but don't really know what to do or anything, so I was going to go talk to Percy about ideas." I said.

"Oh well where is this place?" She asked curious.

"It's where Selene and Helios raised me after mom faded." I said sadly.

"Oh are Selene and Helios going to be there?" She asked after a minute.

"No they faded as well. Helios faded a couple years before i got bit, and Selene faded 4 months before I found the Hunt and you." I said as a tear fell down.

"Cole I'm sorry, but now you have a new family and a girl who loves you." Zoe said bringing me into a hug.

"Yeah I know but still I miss them a lot. Helios was the father Atlas never was, and Selene was my second mother." I told her.

"Anyways, why were you glaring at Aphrodite after she asked if Andrew was single or not?" I asked changing the subject, and smirking at her.

Her eyes widened and she said, "I was angry because he is a decent guy and don't want him to just another number for Aphrodite."

"So no other reason?" I said teasing. "You seem to be less cold around him them other guys except me and Percy of course."

"No he is just a friend who helped me with Orion when he was being a douche." Zoe said quickly. "Don't you have a date to plan mister?"

"Right I need to find Percy." I said remembering what I was doing. "Don't think you're off the hook Zoe."

I smiled at her and she looked away and walked off to the archery range.

I continued on towards the Hunters Cabin and tried to come up with ideas but got nothing. I knocked and when I heard Percy ask, "Who is it?"

"It's Cole, I need to ask you about something." I replied.

"Come on in Cole." Artemis said.

I opened the door and saw them sitting on a couch, or rather Percy was sitting on the couch and Artemis was in his lap. I laughed at them and they both blushed. "Shouldn't there be a chaperone if there is a boy and girl all alone?" I asked teasing.

"Not when one of them is a Goddess you don't." Percy smirked. "Anyways what did you want to talk about?"

"Well Hannah and I have been dating for a little over a year and we haven't actually been on a date. I want to do something special and take her to the cave where I grew up in, and show her where I lived with Selene and Helios after my mom faded. After that I don't know what we should do." I said trailing off.

"So your asking me? I am about as clueless as you bro. But I can work something out. I can make the food appear. Let's go early and set up. I will be back in a couple hours Arty." Percy said as Artemis slid off him and he got up. He then kissed her and walked over to me. "So where is this cave?" He asked.

"It's on West coast. Near where I found you guys." I replied.

"Okay then let's go." Percy said.

"I'll ask Apollo if he can make it warm there because I know it is pretty cold in the Northwest." Artemis said getting up.

"Thanks Artemis, I really appreciate it." I said nodding my head at her.

We walked out and Percy grabbed ahold of me and shadow traveled us to where the cave was. Looking at it, I smiled thinking this was exactly the way it was when I left to search for Zoe.

"So this is it?" Percy asked.

"Yeah, this is where I grew up." I replied.

"I like it, it's very cozy which I didn't think it would actually be." Percy said walking into the cave, which had different rooms that had been dug out into the cave. I led him to where we used to eat dinner, and saw the stone table still there as well as the tree stump seats we used to sit on.

"Okay so do you want you to eat in here by candle light or since Artemis is going to ask her brother to make it warm for you two do you want to eat above the cave on the cliff looking out over the water?" Percy asked.

I thought about it and then said, "Outside, I think I can show her around here and then go up and have dinner."

"Alright, what do you want to eat, I can have it appear when you are heading up to the cliff." Percy said.

"Hmm… I don't really know just surprise us." I said after thing and not coming up with anything.

"ok surprise dinner got it. I'll ask my father if he can provide some entertainment or something for you two." Percy said smiling.

"Thanks Mr. Date Doctor Man. I never knew you were such a planner at things like this." I said laughing at him.

"Ya well I think it must be a part of the blessing that Aphrodite gave me or something. Make sure you wear something casual but nice, if you want to walk along the beach or something, you know." Percy said.

"Ok I told Hannah just to wear whatever." I replied.

"Oh bad move bro. knowing her she is going to be dressed super nice not knowing what kind of date it is. Don't worry about it, I'll tell her to wear something casual but nice as well." Percy told me.

"Alright I think that covers it, we will be back late I guess since we can't teleport." I said.

"That won't be a problem, I will ask Blackjack to give you a ride to California and me and Artemis will meet you at the Roman's camp. We were going to go on a date ourselves."

We returned back to camp and separated after I thanked Percy. He headed back to Artemis' cabin and I went to the Poseidon cabin where Percy and I were staying. /casual but nice, what can I wear that would be nice but casual? If we go walk on the beach I don't want to wear pants and get them wet and I don't know if sandals would be too casual./ I thought to myself. Finally I decided to wear some tan khaki shorts with a light blue polo and some nice sandals. My shirt was my favorite because it was the same color as Hannah's eyes. I changed into that and saw a necklace laying on top of a dresser. It was a simple one with six silver beads and four black ones with a shark tooth between it.

"Thought you might like it. My father gave it to me but don't like to wear it. You can have it if you want." Percy said. I turned and saw him standing right by the door. "Nice look casual but not too casual. Don't worry Artemis helped Hannah with some clothes." He said seeing my look. I sighed in relief that she wasn't going to dress super fancy for this. I smiled at him and asked, "So did Artemis asked Apollo about tonight?"

"Yes she did it's going to be pretty warm for a walk on the beach. And I talked to my father and you're going to get a good show." Percy said grinning. "You just have to show up an have fun everything will be taken care of. Don't be nervous."

"I'm not nervous or anything we have been dating for more than a year, I just want it to be perfect." I said quickly.

"Sure you're not nervous but still don't worry about anything it's going to be fine." Percy said laughing and giving me a clap on the back. "Now you should probably go get your girl. You got a date tonight."

I looked at the clock and realized it was almost six o'clock. I left thanking Percy again and made my way to Artemis' cabin. When I got the I took a deep breath and knocked.

"Just a minute Cole I'll be there in a minute." I heard Hannah call out.

"Alright babe take your time we aren't in a hurry." I replied.

"Hey Cole, forgetting something?" Percy said from behind me. I turned around and saw him

A couple minutes later the door opened and Hannah came out. My eyes widened in shock.

"Y-you look wow, just wow," I said unable to come up with anything else to say.

She was dressed very casual with a knee length dress that was a light blue. Her hair was curled and made her look even more beautiful. She blushed and replied smiling, "You don't look too bad yourself."

I gave her the flowers that Percy had given me and gave her a peck on the lips. "Shall we go babe?" I asked smiling down at her.

"Yes I am curious about the date you planned for us." She said to me.

"Well I didn't really plan it Percy helped with most of it." I told her truthfully.

"Well still it's awfully nice of you to take me out." She said grabbing my hand and intertwining our fingers. I brought her hand up to my mouth and kissed it smiling at her. "For the most beautiful girl ever? How could I not?" I said.

With that I teleported us away to our date.
