As promised, here is Waking up with a Splash part 2.
As we walked down the steps I began to think what a wonderful date we are going to have. We had plenty of dates but those weren't special like this one. Some dates we had to fight monsters, others were too formal. This was just a simple date. With what he has planned for us this is just going to be like the good old days. Just spending time with each other, and nothing else. We were crossing one of the many busy streets when I realized why this date was so special. It will remind us why we fell in love to begin with. I smiled as we stepped on to the next curb.
"Why are you smiling?" Percy asked
"I'm just thinking about what you have in store for us?"
"Just like the good old days!" He said.
"That's just what I was thinking!" I said with my eyes widening .
"Two great minds think alike." He responded. We laughed as we walked to the dock. We passed the schedule board.
"Aren't we going to see when the next bout comes?" I asked.
"No were bubble traveling!" He laughed at his own joke. "Come on, take my hand ." He said rising his hand.
"Percy, this water is polluted. You might jump into a toxic waste dump, but I'm not." I stated firmly.
"Ok will you be happy if I create the bubble then we go in?" He asked.
"That would be better."
"Well… too bad." He said as I saw a smirk creep up on his face. His strong arms wrapped around my waist. He jumped off the edge and we began to fall.
"I'm so going to…" Splash! The water was all dirt and garbage. I now understand how Grover feels about nature being destroyed. As soon as I thought that air surrounded my head to my ankles.
"Percy, you're getting better at making human sized bubbles. The first time it came down to my knees." I said smiling as I hugged him closer. "Also don't think I'm going to forget about you pushing me off the dock."
"Yeah, I guessed that. We're almost there."
"Oh, I can't wait to go to the top!"
"Yeah me too. Do you have your hat?" He asked.
"Of course, I don't go anywhere without it." I said.
"Good, we will need it to sneak in. We're here. Hold my hand the rocks are slippery and you might get wet. We will have to walk to the shore because someone might see us."
"Ok." I grabbed his hand as we walked to the shore. The water was knee high.
"Hey, look a Landlocked Salmon. Wow! Look at it Percy!" I said as I let go of his hand and pointed to the fish.
"Annabeth don't let go of my hand." He said.
"Oh come on Percy what's the worst that can…Ahhh! I screamed as I fell into the water. I can hear Percy laughing his ass off!
"I… told you… so! Ha ha ha ha!" He said between laughs. I stood up from the water and walked past him.
"Oh come on Annabeth. I did warn you." He laughed at the end. I kept on walking. We were at the shore when he caught up with me.
"Annabeth, I'm sorry I laughed at you."
"Sorry isn't going to work Percy. I'm covered in water, cold and I have a boyfriend that laughs at me." I said looking directly in his eyes.
"I know how to make it all better."
"How?"
"How about a hug?"
"Percy, what will a hug do?" I said half annoyed and half curious.
"Easy. Here I'll demonstrate." He said. Before I could respond he wrapped his arms around my waist. Immediately I was dry and warm.
"I'm sorry I upset you."
"It's ok, I guess." He smiled at me. He began leaning over to kiss me when I met him half way. We broke apart a few minutes later.
"So how are we going to sneak up to the top?" I asked.
"I thought you would figure out a plan worthy of Athena." I smiled at him.
"Well we better get started!" I said.
