A/N-I'm so sad...this story is wrapping up. The pairing is decided, but you're going to have to find out later.
The next chappie's will focus on Grover's wedding, lots of girl drama, and finally...the end of the story and MAJOR perlypso probs.
No, this isn't the last book-This is a trilogy (pretty sure).
The next story is going to coming out ALOT later.
Like, after I finish The child of time (that's a series,too) later.
Chapter 25 will probably be the last chappie, unless I need more time.
(the battle of Olympus will be super short, at least two chappie's. I forgot all about that. I'm basically fast-forwarding to Rachel's prophecy.)
Chapter's will get longer so be prepared. My new story is out, so read it! R&R
Percy Pov-
"Percy?" A voice asked,knocking on my cabin door.
"It's open!" I yelled, playing Doritos Crash Course on my Xbox.
The door opened and my satyr friend, Grover, appeared.
"Hey Perce," Grover said, "You know I'm getting married, right?"
"Well, it's not like there's not a engagement ring on Juniper's finger or anything." I said, sarcastic.
"I'm going to need a best man." Grover paused. "Will you be my best man?"
I grinned, "Of course, nothing else I'd rather do at my bro's wedding."
Grover chuckled and patted my back.
"So...After the wedding?" I asked.
Grover gave me a questionable look.
"Are you going to move or something? Have kids?" I sighed, I didn't want Grover to leave-he had been with me from the start.
"We can't move too far from Juniper's tree of course," Grover deliberated. "Kids? Half-goat and nymph kids would be cute."
"So you're really doing this, huh?" I ran my hand through my tousled hair. "Growing older, marriage, kids..."
"Yeah," Grover started to leave but looked me right in the eye, saying, "We all have to grow up Percy."
"And who knows?" Grover started to close the door. "Maybe you'll watch after my great-great-great-great-great grand kids or something?"
The door shut behind him, leaving me to ponder over his words.
Was I going to live for that long? Did I even want immortality? Will I ever have a family of my own?
"Hey Percy." A voice-Artemis-greeted.
The familiar goddess appeared through Iris-message.
"Hey Artemis," I said, happy to see her.
"You have a girlfriend, right?" She asked, fumbling with her fingers.
"Nah, Calypso just happens to be a very close friend who I happen to spend most of my time with."
Artemis looked at me; disapproving my joke. "So, we shouldn't have 'the talk'?"
I nearly threw up. "Gods, no! No birds and bees stuff either."
"Good, I didn't get the talk myself-I wouldn't know what to say, either." Artemis laughed.
"But you should know-never play with a woman's heart." My mother said, serious. "Unless it's not your fault, always ask for her forgiveness."
"Don't worry, Artemis." I told her. "I don't plan on doing that anytime soon."
"I know you won't." The goddess nodded. "But if you even so much as to hurt that girl-I'm going to kick your podex."
"No thanks," I gulped-Artemis could be pretty scary when it comes to breaking hearts. "I'm good."
"Treasure every moment your loved one-you never how long you'll be with them." Artemis swiped her hand through the image, ending the connection.
I got up out of bed, taking Artemis's advice. The night was settling over peacefully, as if Artemis was expecting this to happen.
Calypso sat in the strawberry fields, watering the plants.
I smiled watching her occasionally flip her hair out of the way, and watering the strawberrries.
"Hey beautiful," I said, taking her hand.
"Percy," Her mouth turned a surprised 'o'
"Walk with me." I said, leading her towards the beach. We sat down in a comfortable spot, watching the waves.
"Calypso," I asked. "Do you even like Camp Half-Blood?"
"Percy, please don't start." She pleaded.
"Don't start what?"
"Everytime you think that I don't like something-you always try to change it." Calypso admitted. "If I said I didn't like camp-you'd probably pack up and we'd leave; because of me."
"I just want you to be happy,that's all."
"I am happy.I'm fine wherever you are." Calypso shook her head. "This is like Twilight-Bella would do anything for Edward-even leave her own family to be with him." (That's what I don't like about Twilight,and Bella led Jacob on through the whole series-I don't really have a team for that. Um...chicken.)
"Now now, you're reading?" I played with her hair.
"Shut it." She eased my hand away, resting her head on my shoulder. "Bottom line is, I love it here-and everything is perfect."
"That's my girl." I breathed, lifting her chin up.
"You know," Calypso said, leaning in. "Everytime you kiss me, I get lightheaded and forget to breathe."
"Didn't know that, but I sure hope that means I'm a good kisser." I pressed my lips onto hers, cupping her face.
After a minute, Calypso pulled away saying, "You wish."
I laughed, helping her up. "Let's go before the Harpies eat us. Ain't nobody got time for that."
A/N-I got the fluff out of the way,now I'm going to have to hurry up with the battle scenes.
That was kinda cute, too cheesy for me, though..
Another question:
Should Percy bathe in Styx?
