"He's your cousin?"
"Yes. But I had no idea he was coming to visit."
Annabeth stood there is silence then she turned to the boy clothed in black "Why are you here?"
"To get laid and have a drink. This is a bar after all." Nico replied
"Really dear cousin you need to get a life." Thalia snickered
Annabeth stood uncomfortably nearby listening to the two family members insult one another and thought fondly of her little brothers whom she liked to tease constantly. Still feeling uncomfortable a little while later, she cleared her throat and both people turned in her direction. Nico grinned and gave another salute and slunk away into the crowd.
"How exactly do you know my cousin?" Thalia asked one she was sure that the boy had disappeared
"I met him in a high school." Annabeth answered sounding somewhat absent minded
"Nico didn't go to the same high school as we did" The other girl said obviously not catching the word 'a'.
"I know. Now come on I want to go home"
"Go on ahead." Thalia said not unkindly "I'll stay and grab a few more drinks and take a ride to your place."
Annabeth nodded and left the pub. Outside, she hailed a cab and told the cabbie to take her to her apartment.
When she arrived home the door was unlocked, the lights were on and her living room was a mess. She distinctly remembered the door being locked, the lights off and a very neat living room. She walked into the kitchen, grabbed a frying pan and tiptoed out of the kitchen and into the hall
She checked every room and the door to the guest room was locked and the noises coming from behind it were definitely human. She kicked down the door (training at base had did her wonders) and walked in to see her naked fiancé and another lady on the bed. Luke's blonde hair stood out on the black sheets and he was currently sucking the bare neck of a very pretty brunette. and she was moaning in pleasure
"Well isn't this a lovely surprise." Annabeth said slowly stripping off her blazer "Can I join?"
Both of their heads snapped up and Luke smiled seductively. "Be my guest" he said patting the extra space on his side of the bed.
Annabeth laughed "You thought I was serious?"
Annabeth laughed again "I knew something was going on. At least you could have fucked her in your own house but no, you had to defile mine."
Luke just laughed "That was actually the plan sweet cheeks"
"Out."
Luke got up and picked up his clothes and started to slip them on, handing the girl on the bed her set of clothes
"I'll let myself out" Luke said
"Be quick about it" Annabeth slipped off her engagement ring and dropped it onto the floor and smashed it with her foot. The supposed diamond shattered under the heel of her boot.
"I knew it wasn't real. The ring was a fraud and so were your promises."
"Awww Annabeth I hate it how you feel that way but we did have some great nights"
Annabeth's eyes welled up and she got up close into his face
"Oh yes the nights were lovely" she said with a much sarcasm as she could muster and shoved Luke and his whore out of the door.
she poked her head out of the door and called to the brunette " hey sweetheart?"
she turned
"He was tested for STD s and got blank results. Be extra careful." She knew this wasn't true but it satisfied to watch the girl look at Luke in disgust as they walked out of the door and out of her life.
LINE BREAK
Thalia came in a few hours later and went to bed in the guest room always set up for her in Annabeth's house. The next day supporting a major hangover, she walked into the living room to find Annabeth on the couch. Her eyes were red and there were a set of red panties that she knew did not belong to the girl on the couch resting on the floor at her feet.
"Annabeth? Annabeth what happened?" Thalia asked worried about the state of her friend.
The girl looked ragged. Her hair was messy and her clothes from yesterday rumpled from sleeping.
The other girl burst into tears and blubbered in rage "Luke… whore…. In my house…. Fucking… bastard"
Still worried about her friend Thalia called Luke.
"What happened to Annabeth?" Thalia demanded over the phone.
"Oh is she still crying?"
"What do you mean?"
"Just ask her." And he hung up
Thalia managed to get the story out of her friend and decided that Luke was going to die.
"Come one sweetie. Let's have a girl's day out. They went to the mall again. They shopped for clothes and Thalia let Annabeth drown out her sorrow in the book store. She was in the magazines section when she felt a tap on her shoulder." She turned around to see Zoe behind her. The girl nodded and Thalia followed her out of the store.
After eating a pint of Ben and Jerry's ice cream from the fridge, burned the offending bed-sheets and finally got into her car and raced to the store to buy new bedding Annabeth collapsed onto the bed in her room in tears. wanting to get the last's day's events out of her mind she went to the the couch and saw a pair of red panties that did not belong in her house on the floor and burst into tears again. Thalia had come in and got her off her butt and to the mall and now she was leaving with Zoë. Curious Annabeth followed at a distance and saw three familiar faces in the corner of the wall.
"What are you all doing here?" She asked
"To keep an eye on you" Andy replied
"I thought Percy wasn't going to send anyone to look out for me" Annabeth said
"He didn't. He sent me to look out for your boyfriend" Andromeda said "boyfriend" if that was the nicest thing that he could call Luke.
"He's not my boyfriend anymore" Annabeth replied with an I don't want to talk about it tone.
Andy smiled and continued "He was found in a government protected facility without a and legal ID and or a permit"
"And what does this have to do with me?"
"You know him" The other girl said "you know what he does, you know how he acts, and you know where he goes."
"I guess so" she turned to Thalia
"What do you know about this?"
"When I was younger, I was in the Olympians. Luke was the one that wanted to bring them down. He wanted to release their grip on the world so that he could take their place. I quit a few years later."
"I'm assuming Luke can't do this alone." Annabeth mused "so he must have another group of people under his command"
"He does going along with us they chose the Titans. In the myths, the Titans and the Olympians fought for control of the world."
"I know that" Annabeth snapped not in the mood for a rundown of things she already knew "What was he doing there anyway? I mean you don't just go into government facilities for a tea party."
"That I don't know "Andy said remorsefully then she looked at Annabeth, "and that's what we want you to find out."
"Me?" Annabeth said shocked. Her voice came out louder than it was supposed to and the mall turned to look at her.
Andy swore and led the girls outside. When they hit the sidewalk she led them to her car and ushered them inside. Zoe silently got in on the driver's side, revved the engine and drove off into the bustling streets of New York City.
They arrived at headquarters an hour later due to traffic.
"So this is where you were" Thalia mused then she turned to her friend" I thought they took you to the base in Connecticut judging by the fact that we lost contact with you for months"
"Yes Thalia. We were in Connecticut" Annabeth said shortly.
They got out of the car and walked into the old high school. Thalia followed Annabeth to her room and sat down on the bed. The room was untouched; everything was where she had left it before. Annabeth sat down at the desk and mulled things in silence. Thoughts floated in and out of her head. Katie popped in a while later and led them down to the office. All it took was a silent walk down to Percy's office to realize she'd rather be here than back at home. Luke was a lying, cheating bastard and she only had one friend. Thalia. And her father was a mess after the deaths of her mother and her stepmother.
Katie knocked and the door opened. The room was bright and Percy was sitting in the middle of the room with a little girl in front of him and toys all around him. The girl looked about seven years old and looked a bit like Percy with her long black hair and twinkling green eyes. The guitar in his hands looked too small for him and the girl was obviously trying to tech Percy how to play the guitar. Though the look on Percy's face clearly said he knew what he was humoring her and he already knew how to play the instrument
Annabeth smiled. They looked like a family and Annabeth always found guys who liked kids cute. Luke, though he 'loved' music and wanted kids, he said it was a waste of time and looked at the kids with disgust whenever he had to pick Annabeth up from the daycare where she volunteered at.
Katie cooed and Percy's head snapped up and he smiled and whispered something to the little girl. She squealed and jumped into Katie's arms and looked around expectantly. Percy stood up, put the guitar away, pushed a button in the wall and his desk and the furniture she had seen when she first arrived rose out of the floor.
"Hello good to see you back so soon."
