Hi guys! Don't worry... There's still more...! Embarrassing mum scene next time... Just a few background hints that will help:
1)Thalia isn't a daughter of Zeus, she is a daughter of Aphrodite, she has different sense of style, but LOVES setting people up.
2) Percy drove his car to the café, and was blindfolded AFTER he got out of the car to walk there.
On woth the story :) :
"Well, um... I'm kinda, like, uh... My dad's Poseidon." Percy stammered. He liked this girl, a lot, but he scared him. Those two feelings can't possibly go together, can they?
"No, you aren't. Poseidon doesn't have any sons. Neither does Zeus, or Hades. Tell me the truth, or... I'll... I'LL KILL YOU!" She screamed the last part, and even though her face was bright red with anger and exhaustion she still looked beautiful. Her dress was ripped in places (Percy tried hard not to focus on the rips, and luckily most of them were on her stomach). She had leaves in her hair, and her hair was matted and covered in grime. Percy didn't think he looked much better.
"I am. I know it's hard to believe, but I also have friends who are sons and daughters of Zeus and Hades too. Just trust me, OK?"
"The thing is, I don't trust you. I met you under an hour ago and already we've faced death together. There are no children of the Big Three. You aren't a demigod, this water is just cursed. I need to get home, because I need a shower, I need to comb my hair and get some sleep. I also need to CHANGE CLOTHES, because it's obvious that you can't stop staring at the rips on my stomach," she clicked her fingers to prove her point, and Percy's eyes snapped back up to meet hers.
"Have you got a car?"
"No, my friend drove me up here."
"Well, I'll take you home then, in my car. Don't worry, I'm not that dodgy!"
Then Annabeth did something Percy would have never expected. She started crying. "Why does this always happen to me?" She muttered, rubbing her arms to keep them warm.
Percy had a sudden urge to comfort her. He walked up to her, took off his coat and wrapped it around her. He raked his hand through her hair, combing through her soft blonde curls, picking out any stray leaves. He tilted her face towards him and wiped the tears and mascara that was running down her face. His faced inched closer, green eyes locked into her stormy ones, and pressed his lips gently into hers. He knew she would slap him, maybe rant at him again, or worse, even start crying again. He made to pull away, but she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him deeper. She smiled against him and they stayed there, wrapped in each others' arms, noses pressed together, for a few more minutes, before making their way back to Percy's car, hand in hand.
First kiss, EEEK! So cute! Hope you enjoyed! Will update soon xxx
