#4, Morning

Title: We'll Be In Between The Sheets 'Til the Late AM

"Ugh."

"What?"

"I'm tired."

"Then go back to sleep." Piper said, burying her face into the pillow.

It was early in the morning, and Percy and Piper had fallen asleep in his cabin last night when they were "talking."

"But I can't," Percy murmured groggily. "I can't sleep when I've woken up."

"Then don't wake up," Piper replied, her eyelids drooping.

"You were the one kicking me," Percy said, yawning.

"Well, I kick in my sleep." Piper said, leaning up. Rubbing her eyes, she got/fell out of his bed.

It had become a frequent occurrence for the couple to stay up late into the night together, whether it be for talking, "studying", or just playing video games.

"What, do you dream about being a ninja or something?" Percy said, rolling out of bed as well.

"Occasionally," Piper said, rather dreamily. She fell onto Percy's couch, regretting the decision to get up in the first place. Percy really did have a well furnish cabin.

"Coming to theaters near you: Piper McLean, The Dream Ninja of Camp Half-Blood." Percy said, the name appearing in his head.

Piper would have laughed if she wasn't so sleepy. "Hilarious Percy. Now, please, leave me be. I have to get ready to take the walk of shame back to the Aphrodite cabin. No matter how much I tell them we were just talking, they all think of the polar opposite."

"Not… talking?" Percy said, his sleep meddled brain refusing to come up with a better answer. He plopped down onto the couch next to her, groaning as he did so.

Piper laughed at that though. "Yes, Percy, they think we're just not talking. What else would we be doing?"

Realization dawned on Percy's face. "Ohhhh…." He said, getting what she was implying.

"Yes Kelp Face, exactly what you're thinking." Piper said, getting up from the couch to find a hairbrush to at least make her hair look somewhat decent.

(A/N: Gosh, I'm so sorry. I can be pretty bad at making people OOC. I, I feel like a failure in that department.)

Percy kept quiet at that, his face turning a shade of red. "Why would they think that? It's just… awkward." Percy said with a small shudder.

"Percy, it's the Aphrodite cabin," Piper said from the bathroom. "What else do you think they talk about?"

"Well…" Percy said as Piper headed to the door. "Like, a countdown to Valentine's Day?"

Piper just smiled and shook her head. He was a naïve boy. Piper closed the door shut, Percy squinting due to the small sliver of sunlight. He groaned, slamming his head onto the couch cushion.

Percy hated mornings.

Hello F.F.F.F.'s! I really do apologize for always being so OOC about things. Percy being a drama queen, Piper being… um, well, not that mermorable. Piper being a morning person. Like, are people even like that? I don't know, just, I apologize. Welp, bye!
