Well here is the second part, a bit longer, and if you think that i might be advancing the story a bit to slow, let me know, i appreciate all feedback, please follow and review if you like :v i don´t think i´ll make lemons just yet, so don´t expect that from me right now, anyway, here it goes, i want to squeeze this story as much as possible, so it might be fairly long, and it might not go the way you think.
Demigod dreams are never really pleasant, however this, was horrible in its own way, I saw camp, everything was calm, a bit to calm, he saw a fire, and most of the campers gathering around it, most everyone was quiet but some were sobbing, and then he noticed that at the center was Annabeth, with puffy red eyes, almost certainly from crying, then I saw what she was holding, a green burial shroud, sea green to be exact, this was my funeral, even in a dream, I felt nauseous, seeing this, I knew that it shouldn´t be happening, I decided not to watch, it was too hard and at that moment a voice was heard, but it was strange, it sounded like various voices talking in unison
"Is this what you desire?" I couldn´t respond, or rather, I didn´t know what to say "I… I don´t know, is this real?" I saw shadows for around me "It's a possibility, nothing is ever a certainty" with that, the dream ended.
I slowly woke up, remembering everything that had just happened was hard, but he still knew that he needed to think of what he was going to do as soon as he could decide, due to my brain working overtime, I didn´t realize the body laying beside me, I was about to jump and scream, but when I saw calypso there, I just stared, I moved my hand closer to her face, she was so beautiful it seemed as is that created a gravitational pull that you could never escape, well in my case at least, I tried to push her hair past her ear, it was so soft, so easy to manipulate, and her skin, merely the feeling of my fingers passing by it made my heart race, unfortunately, I wasn´t to gentle and I woke her.
"Hey, umm so… good morning, I guess"
"Hello Percy" She said half asleep, I guessed she hadn´t realized what position we were in.
"So… do you want to get up or should we stay here?"
Then I saw realization hit her straight in the face "Oh gods! What? How did I get here?"
"You mean this wasn´t something you wanted?"
"No… Well I mean, you know… Not now"
That's when we both directed our attention to inside her cave, we heard the shower running, so we waited for someone to come out, and eventually, a woman stepped out of her room in some of the flashiest clothes imaginable, her face was practically perfect, her eyes seemed to change colors and her body was even, no flaw in a single place, and the second I realized it, I knew who see was.
"Aphrodite" I said
"Hey Percy!" the woman said in the most feminine voice imaginable, then she looked behind me "And hello to you to Calypso."
"Aphrodite, a pleasure as always, it´s been a while."
"I don´t mean to be rude, but, why are you here?"
"Excellent question Percy, I´m here to help you make up your mind"
Calypso looked hurt, she probably knew that it was too good to be true, she wouldn´t be able to simply convince Percy to stay by her side.
"Calypso, you are free to listen to our conversation."
She didn´t even look at me, but she was clearly interested on knowing what it was we had to talk about.
"Anyways, let´s get down to it…"
"Yeah, no, first things first, did you have something to do with me and Calypso mysteriously sleeping together?"
Even though it was awkward to ask I really had to know, and also since when, jeez, even Calypso was about as red as a tomato, but that just made her look all the more stunning.
"Well you see, the thing is, I was in France and well, time is hard to tell here, so I got here at around midnight and you both were asleep, and I didn´t want to have to go back to Olympus and come again later, so I set her next to you and I slept in her bed hehe, so yes, I had much to do with that, but, I can feel that you 2 really didn´t mind, even if you pretend that you actually did, and could you blame me? You two look so adorable together, well that isn´t to say you wouldn´t look well with Annabeth"
"Is that what you came for? Just to make things harder for me?" I couldn´t stand her talking about something like that, as if I didn´t know what other things were at stake. I could barely even turn to look at Calypso who looked like she was on the verge of bursting into tears, if only the mention of another person in my life made her feel like that, then I didn't even want to think of them actually meeting. "Look I appreciate the not so helpful help, but I know what kind of things I'm putting on the line, I don´t need some goddess to remind me"
"Wow, quite the attitude we got there, I wouldn´t be here unless I thought it was completely necessary Percy, or have you forgotten about the warning I gave you on your last quest? Remember my husband's territory, I truly believe you know what you would be giving up on, you would lose something, no matter where you decide to stay, the question, and the thought I came to give is, what are you prepared or willing to give up, and what will happen to the person or people you leave behind? That is all I came to say, for me it´s easy, whatever you choose, you will experience love, so to me there's not much of an issue to what your decision may be, I'll still be involved"
"I appreciate the thought… and yes, I remember, because of that place Bianca died, look, thinking about this is hard enough, but, I feel like this needs time, it´s something that will decide what happens to the rest of my life"
After I finished my sentence I realized that I was simply thinking of myself and no one else, maybe this is what she had come to made me realize, and I could tell that was it, because as soon as I realized it, she was smiling at me.
"Very well, look like I'll be heading out, and Percy, don´t expect this to be the last you see of the gods, we will not let go of our champion for the great prophecy to simply leave"
"Maybe I don´t want that burden placed on me, it´s still up to me, Thalia choose to escape it, maybe I will too"
The goddess of love simply smirked as she left for her home, leaving behind a scent of pure sweetness, almost intoxicating to breathe, I also wondered why she hadn´t said something to Calypso, and as I quickly realized, it was because she had left the room. I sprinted out of the room, expecting her to be crying, I was a bit relieved to see that she was tending to her flowers.
"Hey, why did you leave?" I said
"No reason, I was just sure that that was something I didn´t need to hear"
"What do you mean? Of course you do, well, unless you didn´t want to, but you´re a part of this, you are the only reason for me to stay here, I hope that makes you see just how important you are to me."
Before I realized it I was being hugged with such strength that it was hard to get a breath in
That when I saw her eyes, it´s not that she didn´t want to hear, she just didn´t want me or Aphrodite to see her cry, it´s obvious that she´s gone through so much, meeting people she must love only to have them leave forever, why did things have to be like this?
"Hey" I finally said, after some moments of thought "Remember our deal, I want you to show me who you are, I want to know what you feel, if you laugh, I want to laugh with you the same goes if you´re sad and want to cry"
After a few moments of a silent embrace, she spoke up
"So, do you want to have breakfast?"
"Sure, what´s on the menu?"
"Whatever you wish" she said, giving me a kiss on the cheek. "Let us go" she said, leading me to her table just outside
After eating blue blueberry pancakes and a blue chocolate smoothie, she finally got the nerve to ask.
"If you don´t mind me asking, what is it with you and blue food?"
"Hahaha oh that, it´s sort of an ongoing joke between me and my mom, she had a little disagreement with my old stepdad and this blue food craze was what was left"
"Oh, so my guess is that blue is your favorite color then"
"Haha yeah, now that I think about, it´s kind of obvious, being a son of the sea god and all that"
"Hehe good to know"
"So, do you want to do something today?"
"Well as you can see, this island pretty much has nothing, so no, I don´t"
"Hmm, well, there´s a beach, it´s better than nothing, come one, let´s go"
"Wait Percy, I don´t have a swim suit on"
"Oh, right, well so what do we do?"
"You go ahead, I´ll be right there"
"Ok, don´t take too long"
As I sprinted toward the beach I realized what I had just done, I had just asked to go to the beach with someone who wasn´t my mom, wow, even this seems more out there then the kiss Annabeth game me, then I realized something else, I also didn´t have swim wear, whatever, guess my boxers will do just fine. I waited for what seemed like hours but had actually been just minutes, guess it was just having no one there (and also a bit of anxiety from thinking of what Calypso would be wearing, not that it mattered, she looked gorgeous in everything I had seen her in up to this moment) however, nothing could´ve prepared me for what I was about to see.
I spotted her over the corner of my eye, and immediately turned just to have my breath taken away. Being a 15 year old guy, I must admit that I'm not one to have seen many girls in practically no clothing at all, even at Montauk, the beach I use to go with my mom to, it was always so cold that you would never see anyone in bathing suits, but back to the point, she was wearing a two piece, that was it, a light blue swim suit, but not only was it, so well made, it appeared as if it was brand new, but there aren´t stores here (obviously) so, where did it come from?
"Hey, did you wait for too long?" she said
Obviously, I was still dazed as it took me a moment to answer "No it´s fine, don´t worry about it" but even as I said that, I couldn´t help but admire the way she looked, her body was so perfect, I couldn´t find a single flaw in all of her, she was perfect, in body and soul.
"So, do you like it?" she asked
"Yeah!" I said, showing a bit too much enthusiasm "I mean, you look amazing, where did you get it?"
"Oh, well I made it just now, is it really that good? I thought you would appreciate the color"
Blue, of course "You made it? Wow that so cool, and yeah, haha, so... you made it blue for me?"
Instead of answering me, she simply led me deeper into the tide
"Hey Percy, could you teach me how to swim?"
I thought it was a joke, the daughter of a titan, the strongest titan, can´t swim
"You really don´t know? Even after all the time you spend here?"
"Well I usually just tend to my flowers, I've never really done anything besides that, well that and tailoring my clothes"
Even though it seemed like something so small, we enjoyed the time, it was sort of adorable watching her struggle, we spent the whole day just splashing, maybe that´s why she enjoyed it so much, because she wasn´t alone, and the more I saw how happy we were being in each other's company, the less I wanted to leave.
It was getting close to dawn, and although I saw she was still having a great time, I could see she was growing tired, I tried to tell her that maybe we should call it a day, but maybe she was having too much fun, because she ignored me, so I decided to be a son of the sea god and splash some water on her face, which defiantly got her attention, she did the same, we started playing, getting closer to the shore, all of a sudden she tackled me and we fell on the soft sand, her body on top of mine, I was too tired and nervous that I didn´t say anything, and even if I couldn´t, she simply said
"Thank you Percy"
And with that, before I could realize, we were kissing, with nothing to stop us from doing so, she was sweet, I felt the softness of her skin touching mine, as we lay there, happy, with nothing to ruin the moment… or so I thought.
