5 months later.
Percy had asked Leo to come over to help him turn the room next to Annabeth's office/study, into a nursery for their unborn daughter.
"So, how much longer until Annabeth is due?" Leo asked
"3 more months, I can't wait." Percy answered as they finished putting together the crib.
"So, what about you and Calypso. You thinking about having any kids?" Percy asked curiously.
"Maybe in a couple of years. We're actually taking a trip out to California next summer so I can meet her parents." Leo said
"I hope you know what you're doing, Atlas will do anything to escape his burden." Percy warned him.
"I know, that's why Calypso is going to make sure her mother is there to keep her father from trying to get me to take his burden." Leo said
"Good, so anyway, how does it feel to be dating a goddess?" Percy asked
"Percy, she's not a goddess anymore. She renounced her immortality and became a normal demigod so that she can die when I do, so she doesn't just waste her life falling for more guys, who'll just break her heart when they pass." Leo answered.
"Yeah, she's experienced too much of that already." Percy said.
"Anyway, back your kid. You and Annabeth got a name picked out yet?" Leo asked
"Not yet. Though we have narrowed it down to a few choices." Percy said.
"Like what?" Leo asked
"Not telling." Percy said firmly as they put the last piece of the crib in place.
"Ok, so anyway, what color to you want the walls. I assume you don't want your daughter to have a really girly, pink room." Leo said
"You assume correctly. I'll need to talk with Annabeth about what she wants the room's color to be." Percy said.
"Okay, just let me know." Leo said, walking out of the apartment.
When Annabeth got home, she smiled to see that all the furniture in the nursery had been set up and that Leo had cut out a closet in at the other end of the room.
The only thing that bothered her was the color.
"Why haven't you painted the walls yet?" She asked her boyfriend.
"I wanted to talk to you about the color before we started painting." Percy answered.
"Good idea." Annabeth said.
"Annabeth, you should sit down, after all, you are 6 months into your pregnancy." Percy said, helping his girlfriend towards their room.
"Yeah, I am kind of tired and my feet are killing me." Annabeth said as Percy helped her climb into bed.
"So what color do you want to make the nursery?" Percy asked
"I want it to be green, since that is my favorite color." Annabeth said
"I've got an idea, how about we make the nursery a bit of an aqua color, since that is basically a mix of both of our favorite colors and it doesn't look to masculine." Percy said.
"I like it." Annabeth said.
Percy smiled as he went to IM Leo.
A few weeks later, Percy, Leo and Tyson had finished the nursery. The walls were aqua colored wave patterns on them. Beneath the waves were hippocampi that were painted to look like they were swimming in it and above the waves were owls that looked like they were flying.
Attached to the crib was beautiful mobile that Tyson had created. On a third of the strings were owls that were enchanted to actually fly on their strings when the mobile turned, on another third of the strings were horses that actually galloped through the air when the mobile was spun and on the final third of strings, were dolphins that actually swam through the air when the mobile was spun.
Leo had created ceiling hangings of owls and dolphins that actually looked like they were flying and swimming through the air, since they had actually painted the ceiling sky blue.
"It's perfect." Annabeth said, kissing her boyfriend and then hugging Leo and Tyson.
"Thanks. Nothing but the best for our girl." Percy said.
