Of Beaches and Hot Dogs
Today the beach was perfect. No clouds, a calm breeze, and a bright sun. I guess today Apollo must really be happy. The sand beneath everyone's feet was soft and fine, like walking on sugar, and there were only a few people on the beach mind you. The waves slowly climbed up the sand, then faded away into the sea with a soft whisper. A couple was seated, very nicely, just a few feet from the waves.
"Ahh….. Don't you just love how the beach smells?" Black haired boy asked, throwing his hands up in the air. "It smells of ocean, greens, and…hot dogs?"
"Percy, there's a hot dog vendor across the street." Annabeth pointed out. She looked at him, into those green eyes, and immediately she sensed tension and discomfort. "What's wrong, Seaweed Brain?"
"Annabeth… come closer…" Percy said. Of coursed the blonde inched closer.
"Closer…" Percy whispered. Annabeth was now inches away from his face.
"We…
Breathe…
Air..."
Annabeth looked up to see a cheeky son of Poseidon, grinning from ear to ear.
"What?"
"We breathe air…" Percy repeated, louder.
"Damnit Percy! I swear – " Annabeth didn't get to finish her sentence as she was enveloped into a giant bear hug and tackled to the sand. Percy lay down beside her and stared at the sky, a bright blue, but only for a split second, and he looked beside him and stared into beautiful gray. He smiled his goofy smile, and Annabeth knew he couldn't be mad at him.
He got up on his elbows, leaned down, and kissed her.
'Twas only a small, chaste kiss, but it meant everything to them. They were close as close can be, and they didn't want to lose that.
Then the wave wet their clothes.
