Okay, before you read the chapter I wanted to let some people know this:

I know there has been a load of Samantha PoV, and not a lot of Percy's and Annabeth's. I just did this so you could get to know Samantha more because I have something planed. If you want to know PM me.

There will be Samantha PoV in this chapter with some of Percy's, and Eli's, who you'll meet (look back to chapter 15) later in the chapter, and Leo's. Sorry if this makes you upset but I just need to build a strong character of Samantha. And I will be doing and mix of (a) and (b). Sorry again. Enjoy~

Tomorrow we all went to Florida.

Percy PoV:

I woke up to Annabeth's curls. I smelled pancakes. Must be either Sam or my mom. I woke Annabeth and we got dressed and grabbed our bags from the closet.

When we entered to the kitchen I noticed it was my mom, not Sam cooking. She was always up. Then I heard a knock at the door. When I opened it there was Sam. Speak of the devil and he or in this case she shall appear. She went into the kitchen without saying 'good morning' to me. That was odd. I heard Sam's voice from the kitchen. "I'm so sorry, Sally. I woke up late."

I could see my mom nodding and going on about her work. "It's okay Sam. You don't need to help me every morning."

When I entered the kitchen I saw for the first time what Samantha was wearing. She was wearing a pair of skinny jeans and a loose tank top that read 'My Harry Potter Obsession Is Ridikulus.' Man that girl loved her Harry Potter, and by the spelling of 'Ridikulus' I'm guessing it was a spell. She wore a pair of beige sandals and her hair was in a braid.

"Seaweed Brain?"

"What?"

Annabeth sighed. "Open the door. Someone knocked." I went and opened it and found everyone else. They were all dressed (except Leo) like it would be the same temperature as it was up here. "Uh, guys, you know that it's like 80 degrees down there." They nodded say things like 'I packed other clothes'.

After breakfast we all got into my mom's van and drove to the airport. Now, normally I wouldn't fly, but we all had gotten permission from Zeus. We boarded the plane. 12 teenage gods/goddesses/immortals can get a lot of crazy looks. I rescued a flight attendant from the rage of Leo. She had asked Samantha if she wanted a smaller book to read. Sam looked up from her book. "No thank you. I am highly capable of reading a 784 page Harry Potter book considering there is another one that is 870 pages long that I have read. I think can manage." (AN: that is the actual number of pages, according to Google).

The flight attend looked offended. "Little girl, do not-"

Then Leo stood up. "Listen, lady. Just stop. If my girlfriend says she can read I'm sure she can."

I sighed and walked over to him. "Leo, man, calm down. Sorry." The woman looked at me weirdly. I mean I had just spoken Greek. What's the big deal? After that she didn't bother Sam anymore with books.

I went and sat by Annabeth. "Hey, Wise Girl. Do you think they have a dam snack bar?" She rolled her eyes. "I think so."

"Good that will keep everyone busy."

I leaned over to kiss her. One kiss turned out into a make-out session. I heard Thalia and Nico gagging. I didn't care for once.

4 hours later:

When we got off the plane I was so happy. I mean, being in an enclosed space with 12 ADHA teenagers, not the best thing. Some people were most likely ready to kill us. Leo kept throwing spit balls at Nico. And Sam would laugh or sob every so often. I swear if we were on the r for another minute we all would have died.

We landed at the Tampa airport. We were only an hour away from Ellenton. Sam and Elly told their mom when we took off. So she should have been there. But she wasn't. The girls said she probably got stuck in traffic. "Then this is a good time." We all looked at the voice. Leo. I sighed. "What are you talking about?"

He looked down sheepishly. "Well, I've been working on something. I figured out how to monster proof phones. I made an I-phone for each of us that has all our numbers in it."

He reached into his tool belt. He pulled out 12 phones. He handed Elly a silver one, with a silver case that had 'Elly' written at the bottom in red. Thalia got a silver phone as well, but had a black case with 'Pinecone Face' at the bottom in silver. She glared at him for that one. Annabeth got a blue phone with a gray case that had 'Wise Girl' in a creamy color. Frank got a white phone with a dark red case at the bottom that had 'Beasty' at the bottom in black. Hazel got a gold one that had the same color case that had 'Goldie' at the bottom in, again, gold. Reyna got a purple phone with a white case that had 'Reyna' at the bottom in purple. Nico received a black phone with a black case. 'Death Breath', in red, was at the bottom. Jason got an electric blue phone with a matching case that had 'Sparky' in white at the bottom. Piper got a pink phone with a hot pink case that read 'Beauty Queen' in white.

Leo handed me a gold phone with a sea green case. At the bottom it had 'Seaweed Brain' in a darker green. Leo put a silver phone with a brown case that read 'Repair Boy' at the bottom in red, into his tool belt. The last phone was Sam's. It was a gold phone and it had a lime green case that read in a pearl color at the bottom 'Sams'. Then I heard a lady call out my sister's name.

Sam had just put her phone in her pocket when she turned and looked at the lady. She looked confused at first, then her face lit up. "Mrs. Johnson?" Sam and Elly ran and hugged the lady who wore slacks and a blouse. Mrs. Johnson pulled back. "Your mom has missed you so much. After you left for boarding school-(so that was the lie the twin's mom had made up)-she told me that both of you were coming home with some friends for spring break. I'm here to pick you up. Grace is stuck at work."

Sam nodded. "How's Eli doing?" Mrs. Johnson smiled. "He's on break this week to and he insisted that he came. Eli's out in the car. Grab your bags and come on." Sam looked back at us and motioned for us to follow her and Elly. When we got to the car, a boy with blonde hair and green eyes was leaning against the hood. When he saw us he detached himself. Sam ran over to him. "Eli!" She threw an arm around him. He wrapped his arms around her. I heard Leo grind his teeth. The boy pulled back to look at her. "Sam! Wow, I didn't think it was possible, but you have gotten paler." He chuckled as Sam punched him in the arm giggling. Eli smiled. He had perfect teeth. I already didn't like this guy.

Leo PoV:

I didn't like this guy. He had been my girlfriends first kiss (an: chapter 15) and now he was free for the entire week. Grrrrr…

I watched as Sam hugged Eli. She pulled out of his hug. "Here, let me introduce you to everyone. This is Percy, Annabeth, Piper, Jason, Thalia, you know Elly, Nico, Reyna, Hazel, Frank, last but certainly not least, Leo." Eli nodded. "Sam, are any of them together?"

Sam giggled and nodded. "Yes, Percy and Annabeth, Piper and Jason, Nico and Reyna. Those two love to make-out." That earned her glares, in which she returned. "Hazel and Frank are together. And Leo is with me." Eli gave a mock look of hurt.

"Sam, I'm wounded. You didn't tell me you had a boyfriend." He got punched again. "Eli, I couldn't. I didn't have a phone. Now I do. So now you can spy on me in New York."

Eli laughed. "Okay, you win. Let's get your bags in the trunk. By the way, Sam, your dog is fine."

I walked up to Sam. "He took your dog?" I knew she had a dog, I just didn't know she had given it away. Sam smiled at me. "No, Leo. Eli and Mrs. Johnson live next door so Eli plays with my dog and feeds her." HE LIVED NEXT DOOR!? UGH!

After all the bags had been packed we piled into the car and drove off. Already I was not enjoying myself.

Samantha PoV:

I was so happy I got to see Eli. I mean I was expecting to see him, but now I know he's on spring break. Yeah!

We drove up to my mom's house. She wouldn't be home to 6. Two hours. I turned to Eli. "Thanks. Um, we're going to the beach tomorrow. Do you want to come?"

Eli looked hopeful. "I'd love to." He looked at Percy. "If that's alright."

Percy nodded. "Yeah, if you're Sam's friend, you're my friend. Sam told us the beach was right outside. (an: the twins mom has a little private beach area behind her house) We are going at about 9:30." Eli nodded. "I'll see you then. I walk over to your house." With one last hug Eli walked next door. I walked in the house. The boys would have one of the guest bedrooms, Annabeth and Percy would get the other. The girls would sleep in mine and Elly's room.

Everyone went to the living room and watched TV. I texted my mom the conversation went like this.

Me: Hi, mom. We're home. I got a phone that is monster proof so now I can call and text you and nobody has to pay anything. Hurry home!

Mom: Sam? I'm not going to ask. I'll be home in about 10 minutes.

Me: okay mom, this is Sam btw. We got supper. We ordered pizza.

We had ordered pizza and we were all watching TV when I heard my mom open the door. I put my pizza down and ran to her. "MOM!" I hugged her. Don't judge. I hadn't seen her in a few months. Elly hugged her after I pulled away. She came into the living room where everyone else was. "Oh, mom. You already know Thalia, Leo, Percy, and Annabeth. But this is Jason, Piper, Nico, Reyna, Hazel, and Frank. We're going to the beach tomorrow and Eli is going with us." My mom nodded.

We continued watching TV, but at 10 we turned in. we all were used to waking up early so we didn't need to set an alarm clock. After I kissed Leo goodnight I changed and crawled into my bed. I fell asleep quickly.

The next morning:

We all decided not to have a big breakfast so we each grabbed a protein bar. I went up stairs to change. I slipped on my green bikini, some white shorts, and flip-flops. Hazel stopped me before I could get to the bathroom. "Sam, aren't you going to put on a shirt?"

"No, girls walk around like this all the time." That shocked her. I went into the bathroom and brushed out my long hair. I put it up into a pony-tail, then twisted it into a bun. Some strand fell loose and framed my face.

When I went back into the room, I saw that all the girls just had on shorts, except Hazel. She had a cover-up on. Piper was wearing a pink one-piece that had cut-outs at the waist with white shorts. Elly was wearing her red one-piece and navy shorts. Thalia wore a black one piece with black shorts. Annabeth had on a gray one-piece one with black shorts. Reyna wore a black bikini with some red shorts. At least I wasn't the only one in a bikini. I grabbed my bag I had packed that contained a book (DUH), sun block, and a towel.

We found the boys downstairs in their swim trunks. Frank was the only one with a shirt on. Then I heard a knock at the door. I told the others I would get it. When I opened it I found Eli shirt-less in his swim trunks. His blonde hair was swept to one side. "Hi, Sam."

"Hey." I told the others Eli was here so they came out. Eli lead the way. He, Percy and Jason were talking about something. I felt Leo's hand slip into mine. "Hi, Sams. Do I get a good morning kiss?" I giggled but I kissed him. "PDA!" I looked at Nico who had yelled it out. "Look who's talking." He blushed and ran to catch out with Reyna.

When we finally got to the beach I quickly kicked off my flip-flops and pulled off my shorts. Leo wolf whistled. "Shut it!", I told him as I punched him in the arm. I ran towards the open ocean. My father's territory. Leo came and followed me into the water. I went in until the water was up to my neck. I looked back at the beach. Our little group was the only ones in the area because it was privately owned by my mom.

Then I noticed Eli swimming out. Where the water was up to my neck it was up to his chest. That's what I get for being short. When Eli got to us he pulled me towards him. "Sam, you shouldn't be out this far. You can hardly stand."

I pulled back. "Eli, stop. I'm fine. Leo can help me if I need it." Eli nodded and went a little farther out. I glanced over at Leo when he was out of ear shot. "Fire boy, want to creep out Nico with some PDA?" He pulled me towards him. I wrapped my legs around his waist. "I'll take that as a yes." I leaned forward and our lips touched. I was in my happy place. Nico was gagging behind me. I didn't care. Then it dawned on me that Leo and I were half necked. Eh.

When I pulled away I kept my arms around his neck. "I think I'm gonna go read for a while. I swam back to the beach and laid down in one of the chairs. I pulled out my book. Leo came and sat beside me. Before 5 minutes had passed I could hear him lightly snoring. Adorable.

Eli PoV:

I was watching Sam make out that little twerp. I could take him in a minute. I was not happy Sam was dating someone. I had always had a crush on her. Since I first talked to her. I watched as she headed towards the shore with Leo on her tail. She grabbed a book and starting reading. Leo went to sleep. There was another chair next to her. I ran to get it.

As I slipped into the chair I pulled the book from her grasp. "Eli, give it." She shot me one of her glares which I found beautiful. I shook my head. "No, I haven't seen you in 4 months. I want to catch up." She sighed. "Fine. What do you want to know?"

I shot a glance at the sleeping wimp. "When did you and Leo start going out?"

"A couple of weeks after we met."

"When did Percy and Annabeth meet?"

"They've know each other since they were twelve. They started dating 2 years ago. Don't even try to break them up. Percabeth is my OTP!"

"Okay, calm down. I was just wondering." Why would I want that dumb blonde? I wanted Samantha. Then I heard Percy call out something. "YO! LEO WAKE UP!"

The boy bolted awake. "WHA?"

Thalia laughed. "Repair boy, we all are going back to the house to play truth or dare. GET UP!" We walked back to the house and I saw Leo holding Sam's hand. It felt like my heart was stabbed.

When we got to the house Sam came over. "We're going to the beach tomorrow if you want to come." I shook my head. "Can't. Gotta watch Coby." Coby's my little brother. She frowned. "Oh well. Oh my mom wanted me to invite your family over for dinner."

I nodded. "We'll be there."

We went into the living room and sat in a circle. Thalia went first. "Piper, truth or dare?"

"Dare."

Thalia snickered. "I dare you to sit on Percy's lap for the rest of the game."

Piper went over and sat in Percy's lap. He or Annabeth didn't seem to mind it as if it happened often. Piper was next. "Um, Leo, truth or dare?"

Leo grinned. "You know it's gonna be dare baby."

"Why did I ask? I dare you to…kiss Annabeth."

Annabeth turned to Piper. "Uh, Pipes, Leo values his life to much."

"You're right. Okay. Leo hug Nico."

Leo held out his arms to the boy. "Come here, death breath." After about a minute or two of struggling, Leo finally got a hug. Then his grin got wider. "My turn. Percy, chug a gallon of water without breathing." Percy moved Piper off his lap and got and empty milk gallon and filled it with water. He took a deep breath and tipped it back. Percy downed it in 2 minutes without breathing. Then he took his place in the circle and piper got back in his lap.

Percy turned towards me. "Eli, truth or dare?"

I was going to show these people I wasn't a wimp. "Dare, Percy."

Percy grinned like a madman. I saw Samantha face palm. "I, Percy Jackson, dare you, Eli Johnson, to…"

Okay, sorry for the cliffhanger. But, you get to decide what happens.

-Review and tell me what you want Eli to do.

Tyson will show in the next chapter. Promise. Please REVIEW!
