AN!!!- Thx for all the reviews! Ahhhhh I'm inspired by all the readers and lub every one! Eveb if they critique cuz that makes me better! And since y'all made 10 reviews there are 2 chapters comin right up!

Y'all need to know that Thilia is not a hunter! She never turned into one and was not the child of the prophecy

Oh, P.S. I'de like to thank Percabeth0614 for given me the idea of what the gift is gonna be!!

Annabeth P.O.V.

I can't believe I'm going on a cruise with all of my best friends!! Even Percy! Wow this is going to be amazing! Ok I have everything packed a Bikini, underwear, sun dress, dagger, Yankees cap, shorts, tank, towel, sun glasses, Drachma, actual money, I.D., lap top, Sketch book, reading book, and journal. Yep that's about it. Oh, I almost forgot my owl earrings Percy gave me!

I grabbed them put them on, got my suit case and headed out the door to Percy's cabin running into Thilia on my way there.

"Hey Thilia! You're going to?" I already knew she was going Percy implied it but I still wanted to make sure even though she was carrying a suit case also.

"Yep! It's going to be so fun! I can't wait!"

"You know Nico's going right?" I had known she had a crush on Nico since the beginning of the war against Cronus. (AN-just letting y'all know that's actually how you spell kronus) And well, I've teased her about it ever since we're best friends how can you not expect that?

She turned scarlet and replied "well, yea I kind of guessed. But you do know that There's Percy's organizing it. I bet he'll give you two alone time *OH LALA!*"She said ending in giggles.

Now it was my turn to blush, I could feel my face heating up. I could hide it if I wanted to, but why should I, I was leaving on a vacation with my best friends and I couldn't help but be happy.

Percy P.O.V.

Ok I think I have everything but who really needs to check, OH I almost forgot the Drachma's! I remembered though so it's all good. I zipped up the suit case and plopped it down right when I heard a knock on the door. I peered at my watch 3:45 Ha wise girl was 15 minutes late this would make a good joke. I opened the door to see Thilia and Annabeth standing there suit cases and all.

"Hmm 15 minutes late wise girl, watch your watch some times." I said, she punched me in the arm. I kind of expected it, but that's Annabeth.

"Yea 15 minutes late because… Oh never mind it's nothing of your concern. So you ready?"

"Wait, wait. Come on tell me what you two were doing!" She knew I was curious, and now she was going to make me beg for it, great.

"Nah, it was just girl stuff. Nothing you really want to know about."

She really wanted me to beg for it, I was about to say something when Thilia interrupted me, "Hey there's Nico. Come on, you're so slow I want to leave already!"

"Of course Thilia see's Nico first." She turned a tint of pink, but changed back to her normal color by the time Nico go to my cabin.

"Hey ready to go?"

"Yea, we're just waiting for Grover…Oh there he is!"

"Ready to leave?" He was carrying a environment friendly suit case, and was carrying a book called 1,001 to save the environment.

I glanced at my watch, and he arrived just in time. "Yep, right on time, come on lets head up to the hill."

Everyone was right in front of me, except for Annabeth. Where did she go, I about had a mini panic attack. Ends up she was right behind me, struggling with her luggage.

"Wise girl, can't you figure out a way to carry a suit case if you're oh so smart?"

"Actually Seaweed brain, yea I can. But that would mean me being stronger, and I'm not that strong."

"Well Wise Girl, why didn't you just say so?" With that, I swooped over and took the huge bag into my hands.

She was speechless, I didn't know why but she was. Her face turned that perfect shade of red when she was embarrassed and she looked about perfect. I thought that she would know by now that I like her but I guess not… That's my goal this trip. To tell Annabeth exactly how much I like her, I don't know how but I will.

"Thanks Percy … do you want me to carry anything I could help if you want?" she said a lot more timid than ever.

I was about to hand her little box, but I couldn't. She would open it. She couldn't find out… yet.

"Nah Annabeth relax, I can take it from here." The truth was, her bag was 15 times the weight of mine and I felt like I was going to drop it. But, I wouldn't say that. I would do anything for this girl, so a little baggage won't hurt. My muscles were flexing so much I thought they would crack. Thank the Gods I had a sleeveless shirt on.

"Ok," She said still walking right beside me. I liked that right next to ME.

Annabeth P.O.V.

Oh Gods why did he have to be so sweet! Just like that he can just take my bag, me being speechless. His perfectly sculpted arms glistened with sweat. Why can't he be mine? That's the question I want answered.

Did Percy like taunting me? All I wanted right now is for his arms to be around me.

"Gods is it smoken' hot or is it just me?" he said with that perfect smirk of his. Look at him! His wonderful tan glistened and seemed to make him glow in some sort of way, and his muscles just made it all the better. All I could do was stare.

"Earth to Wise Girl?" He said waving his hand in front of my face.

"Oh what? Huh?" Being incredibly stupid I tripped on a root, and the prepared to fall when I heard a crash and was suddenly in a (practically) gods arms. I looked up to see that Percy had dropped my entire luggage and his just to catch me. I was lost in his eyes until I realized we were almost to the car.

I didn't want to pull away, it seemed like I was in Heaven. But, we had a cruise to catch, and Percy probably hated catching me. So I got up and dusted myself of, Percy stood there a moment longer. Then he grabbed the luggage and stuffed them into the trunk. Oh yes, this was going to be a amazingly taunting cruise.
