Witness Protection

Chapter 14

ANNABETH POV

I woke up, remembering the previous night. Apparently Percy's life was pretty dull. I was going to have to liven it up!

…

Okay, I have no idea what to do. I mean, I just met Percy a week ago. And we were pulled into a sad situation where we really can't get out alone. We need each other.

I got out of bed and noticed it was empty. Percy is such an early riser. I grabbed my clothes I was going to wear today, a marble gray button down shirt, and denim skinny jeans. I grabbed my blue converse too. Today was going to be a good day.

I walked into the shower and felt warm water trickle down my back. It felt so good. I picked up my apple shampoo, and did my hair.

When I got out of the shower, I looked into the mirror. Those scars showed what I went through. I need to walk with pride from now on. It is why I was given this life. I am able to conquer this ugly feeling. I pulled my clothes on and forgot all of those weeks with Luke. That is the past, and Percy is the future.

If only I knew how wrong I was. I was never safe.

I walked into the kitchen to see Percy making waffles. "Good morning Seaweed Brain." I said, making him turn around in shock.

He gave me a goofy grin that of course I loved, and he kissed my forehead. "Hey, wise girl."

I looked over his shoulder causing him to chuckle. "Do you have any for me?" I asked, looking back at him. He pushed me to the pile of place, and I took one. I put a chocolate chip waffle on my plate and sat down.

"Hey! That was for me!" Percy exclaimed. I looked at him and put on my best/worst pouty face. It worked. "Fine." He grumbled.

I ate my waffle in satisfaction, knowing that I won this battle.

We were in the car heading to the camp. I watched as Percy looked at the road, with a weird look on his face.

"You know we've never been on a date before, right?" He asked, thankfully still looking at the road. I smiled and took the hand that wasn't on the wheel.

"Yeah. I never thought about that. I mean, we did host a party… that might cut as a date." I suggested. He shook his head.

"No, you deserve a proper outing with your loving boyfriend." He said, smiling and also sounding serious. How can he pull that off?

"Good. It's hard being selfless all the time, you know?" I asked, mocking myself. He just laughed at patted my hand.

"Okay. Now… do you think that Nico and Thalia are a thing?" He asked, sounding like a lost little kid. Yup. Only Percy can pull that off.

"I'm not sure actually. What about Grover and Juniper?" I asked, sounding a little lost myself.

"Not sure either." He looked at me for a split moment, then had his eyes glued to the road again.

The rest of the car ride to camp was spent in a comfortable silence.

When we pulled up to camp half blood, I noticed something different. Kids were a lot happier. Hey, it's different.

Percy and I got out of the car and walked to our cabins. Time to meet the campers after a great weekend…

PERCY POV

I opened the door to the Poseidon cabin and looked at my two little campers. Aaron and Adela. They were staring into each other's eyes creepily, so I think that they were having a stare off. Keyword being 'think'.

I walked between them and used my fingers to shut their eyes and close them. "Percy!" they whined in unison which of course, made me laugh.

"You two are the weirdest twins I've ever met." I said, chuckling.

"Oh yeah? You're the weirdest adult I've ever met." Adela said, leaning back in her chair.

"Obviously you've never met Grover and Nico." I said, leaning back in my chair now.

"Burnage!" Aaron yelled at his sister. She just punched him in the face. "What was that for?" His muffled voice came from the floor.

"For being an idiot." She said, looking back at her book. I shook my head in disbelief, and walked into the cabin kitchen area. I grabbed a coke, and sat down on an unoccupied bunk.

"Settle down. I think that we need to appreciate what we have in life." I said, taking a sip.

Adela snorted. "And what do you think we should do?"

"I think it's time for me to teach you how to surf." I said, standing up, "Get your bathing suits on. We're going to the beach."

We got to the beach by taking a channel that connected to it from the lake. Yeah, it really wasn't that much of a lake, more like an outlet. But the channel is so narrow; no boat can fit besides a canoe. And that's what we took.

The twins had their own, while I had mine. We had our stuff in our canoes, and some extra things in mine, since I was alone.

Once we were there, I brought the two canoes to shore while the twins ran off, explaining that they were just going to get a spot. Yeah right.

I got the surf boards and towels out of the canoe, and walked to where the twins were seated.

"That took you long enough." Aaron sighed, looking up.

"Hey, you didn't have to carry three surf boards and three towels, while two brats were off doing who knows what." I snapped. They just shrugged and helped lay the towels down.

Adela said that she needed a good tan, since she was going to a dance next week. I just laughed at her, and took Aaron with me to the ocean.

We took our boards out to the ocean, and I taught him how to balance first. "Okay, you need to be able to balance yourself right in order to stand up." I said, giving a quick example. He nodded and tried, but instantly fell in the water.

I heard Adela laugh off at the beach. I looked at her, and saw a smug look. Apparently she wanted us to hear it. I just patted Aaron on the shoulder and said, "Better luck next time kid."

Aaron and I practiced for an hour before we dragged Adela to come out too. It all worked out great. By the end of the day, we had two more people on this earth who knows how to surf.

Only, I did not see the pair of eyes watching my every move. And that could be the thing that would save Annabeth and I's life.

Hope you liked it! CHRISTMAS TOMMOROW! That means… A TITAN'S CURSE IS COMING OUT! It will be out at about ugh… 11-1 am/pm
