PERCY
Blue bedding or white bedding that was the question. "The blue will stand out the most, but it depends on the wall decorations, I guess." Percy muttered to himself while trying to decide. Their apartment walls were completely white and having a white bedroom did not sound so cool. It would seem like one of those rooms where crazy people were placed. He wished he had talked to Annabeth about this before she ran looking for kitchen silverware. He wasn't a big expert in interior design.
"Ah, excuse me? Do you work here?" He asked a lady with strands of grey hair standing a few feet away.
"Of course dear, what can I help you with?"
"Look, I need some guidance on…bedroom stuff. Sets." Percy said, feeling so unknowledgeable. "My girlfriend and I just moved in together and she kinda put me in charge of furnishing our bedroom, but I have no idea how things would look best."
"Do you have some sort of idea what colors you'd want?" The lady said.
"Yes, I am thinking of blue and white. Our walls are the color white."
"Oh, how about a combination of colors? We have a special service where you build your own room on a computer. From a bedroom to a living room to any room of your apartment. How does that sound? That way you'll get so much more options."
"That would be wonderful uh…Gina." He responded reading her name tag.
"Here come this way." Gina said as she moved towards the far left corner of the store.
"Um, how much time will it take to have the items ready?"
"It will take about 1 to 2 hours since we need our personnel to gather around everything, a little more if you decide to ship your items right to your place." She said as they entered a room with a bunch of service computers.
That sounded great, but the only problem was that they would be shipping the items to nowhere.
He sat down in one of the computers and thanked Gina for the help.
"You're welcome dear. I am sure your design will be splendid, your girlfriend will love it." She said walking out of the room.
That is what he really hoped. He wanted Annabeth to have the best of the best, and this was the start of that. Their home.
He inhaled and exhaled a big breath and set to work.
45 minutes later, he submitted his work and gave the order number and receipt to the man behind a counter and dialed up Annabeth's phone.
She answered after three rings.
"Hey, where are you?"
"I am on my way to the entrance, meet you there?" He said as he exited the service room.
"Yeah, sure. I went looking for you in the bedroom section, but I couldn't find you." Annabeth responded with a faint of worry in her voice.
"I, yeah I was in customer service asking for something." He said.
"Alright then meet up front, bye." She said before hanging up.
She would most definitely notice that he did not bring any purchase for their bedroom, but he planned to tell her that he'd seen a catalog with the perfect bed set that would be ready for pick up the next day. Which of course wasn't true because he planned on taking Annabeth out to dinner later on, and when they came back…he would walk her in into their new bedroom. BAM, he felt like the best boyfriend ever.
"Just one more call." He said as he dialed up the number
"Hello?"
"Hey Frank, I need you to make me a huge favor."
