Third person pov- time skip last 2 days of school

Percy sat on a his porch swing with Zoe who had her head in his lap, he began to play with her hair as he nervously wondered if his plan to ask her to be his girlfriend would work. He had fallen hard for her as she had for him. He checked the weather and it was an 80% chance of rain, the perfect time to ask her, but he didn't know if she would say yes, what if she didn't? No he couldn't dwell on what ifs, she just has to say yes or he'd die. Zoe was thinking of Percy, she still hadn't introduced him to her mom and she was thinking about going dating him. Her mom would kill her but Percy was the perfect guy...okay maybe not the perfect guy, he stinks at nicknames and is usually oblivious when girls try to flirt with him. Not that she minded his obliviousness. She even considered asking him out, but began to shy away from that idea. She had over heard Reyna telling Piper that she likes Percy a lot, but that's the thing, Reyna likes Percy but Zoe loves him. It's the last week of school and Percy and Zoe still haven't confessed their feelings for each other.

"What are you thinking about fish head." Zoe asked and Percy looked down and smiled at Zoe.

"There's going to be a lot of rain today, will you stay and watch the rain with me star girl?" he asked with a lop sided grin. Zoe's eyes opened wide and her breath caught in her throat, once she shook herself from her trance she silently cursed Percy.

"I guess, if that's your idea of fun. Star girl is still a stupid nickname." Zoe said with a smirk at Percy's baffled expression.

"It's fantastic because your last names Nightshade and the stars come out at night and..." he trailed off trying to think of another reason star girl was a good nickname. But when he couldn't Zoe smirked at him,

"That's what I thought." Percy mock glared at her which she returned until he backed down. She laughed at him so he did what he was actually good at and stuck his tongue out at her, only the mature Zoe Nightshade did so as well. Then the rain started, Percy gently lifted Zoe's head from his lap and ran inside.

"2 seconds he called back over his shoulder." Zoe rolled her eyes, that was his favorite quote from Shaun of the Dead. Percy ran back out with a radio and a cd. He popped in the song Have I Told You Lately by Rod Stewart and turned to an uncespecting Zoe and held out his hand.

"May I have this dance lady Nightshade?" Percy asked trying to play it off as an innocent dance. Not knowing what song it was, Zoe accepted.

"Of course Mr. Cheese ball." Zoe said poking fun at Percy's cheesiness. He chuckled at her formal, yet joking tone and grabbed her hand. He pulled her unexpectedly into the rain and she jumped once she felt the cold rain drops touch her skin, she didn't pull away though and wondered if this was more then just some dance. Percy put a hand on her waist and his other clasped hers as he smiled timidly at her. Then the song started.

"Have I told you latley that I love you? Have I told you there's no one else above you. You fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness, ease my troubles that's what you do." Zoe's eyes widened as Percy sang along to the song, looking deep into her volcanic black eyes. He looked at her with love as he continued to serenade her.

"For the morning sun and all it's glory, greets the day with hope and comfort too. You fill my life with laughter, somehow you make it better ease my troubles that's what you do." Percy sang this song with all his heart because he knew he found the right girl, he knew that she was the perfect girlfriend he envisioned and he truly did love her.

"There's a love that's divine and it yours and it's mine like the sun. And at the end of the day, we should give thanks and pray for the one, to the one." Zoe's love for Percy increased as she buried her head into the crook of his neck. Percy felt like screaming for joy, he got his dream girl, instead he finished the song and stood there with Zoe in his arms.

He let go of her and kneeled, "Zoe would you-" he was cut off with a whack to the head.

"Ow."

"That better not of been a marriage proposal, or some sick prank." she threatened at a now laughing Percy.

"Of course not! We're only going into sophomore year next year. I would never trick you like that, Zoe I like you a lot, will you be my girlfriend?" he asked hopefully deciding to leave out the love part incase she was creeped out by it. Zoe didn't feel cold anymore, she felt warm and happy. As she stared at the soaking wet Percy Jackson who wanted to date her, who wanted to be with her as much as she wanted to be with him.

"Wellllllllllll..." she drawled out.

"The offer does seem genuine." she teased as she pretended to ponder about it. Percy got off his knee and looked crest fallen. Did she not feel as strongly for him as he did for her? When Zoe saw his face she stopped teasing him and wrapped her arms around his neck, she then kissed him. It felt like Percy was shot with lightning but it didn't hurt, it felt good and warm. He had never felt this way around Annabeth, though he's never kissed her or any girl before it felt amazing. Zoe's toes curled when he kissed her back, she could die with happiness and felt the electricity too. Before they both pulled away from lack of oxygen.

"Wow...that was-" Zoe started but was cut off my a giddy Percy.

"AWESOME!" Percy threw his fist into the air and was grinning like a fool.

"I KISSED ZOE NIGHTSHADE!" Percy yelled at the top of his lungs and sweeped her off her feet and kissed her again. The rain continued while Zoe laughed at Percy's enthusiasm. He gave her a sweet kiss on the forehead and carried her inside. Little did they know that Percy's mom recorded the whole thing on Percy's iPhone and on video camera.

-LINE BREAK LAST DAY AT SCHOOL-

The next day Percy again gave Zoe a ride on his motorcycle, yes motorcycle. It's a Harley and Percy love it when he gave rides to Zoe, he especially love it now since they were finally dating. Zoe's mom still didn't know about Percy, or that he rode a motorcycle. She was always relived when he let her wear the helmet because sometimes she got scared, but now that they were dating Zoe felt fearless as she clung to Percy. Though Percy was only 15 he looked 16 and didn't drive with parental supervision even though it was against his moms wishes. The teachers new too but didn't call him out on it because they liked Percy so much. Once they made it to school all the girls looked at Percy making Zoe scowl. Today Percy looked especially hot, he wore a black leather jacket with a black shirt. He had on blue jeans and his untamable jet black hair added to the appeal. He had on silver sunglasses and had the look that screamed bad boy. Zoe looks beautiful, maybe if she lost that frown. Percy thought happily as he wrapped his arm around her and kissed her cheek.

Zoe blushed and leaned into Percy's chest wrapping her arm around his waist. This caused several gasp to be heard as the women looked at Zoe enviously and some of the guys threw glares of jealousy at Percy for being able to get the coldest, hottest girl in school. Zoe and Percy had never felt happier and ignored the looks of envy from their peers. They approached Leo, Jason, and their friends who looked smug, all except Reyna.

"It's about time Perce! Who new a kelp head like you had the guts to ask out a Miss man-hater?" Leo said and laughed as Percy flicked his forehead.

"Nice going Perce, you too Zoe. I could tell it was love at first sight." Piper said dreamily and elbowed Jason in the ribs as he groaned at his girlfriend's continuation with the love stuff.

"Nice going, now you have a abusive girlfriend." Frank teased and Hazel smacked the back of his head making Percy and Zoe go into a fit of laughter.

"Hypocrite, my girls perfect, even if she does snore a bit in her sleep." this caused Zoe to punch him in the stomach as she blushed in embarrassment. Percy hunched over, trying to regain his breath. This caused everyone to laugh at Percy's joke and Zoe's violent ways. He glared at her only for her to grin at him triumphantly, causing him a small smile.

Reyna looked at the 2 sadly but saw how happy they both were and accepted it, they deserved it. They've both been through a lot of heartbreak and deserved a happy ever after.

"ATTENTION STUDENTS, THE TROJAN HIGH SCHOOL HAS BURNT DOWN, NEXT YEAR THEY WILL ATTEND SCHOOL WITH US, HAVE A GREAT SUMMER." the entercom announced and all of the Romans were silent. Percy and Zoe paled and looked at each other. That was blunt.

"I'll be here." she mouthed to him and he smiled and kissed her on the lips leaving them both blushing. Today was a half day and it was 11:00, they leave at 12. The students could do as they please so they all just hung out with their friends. Percy felt he could face Luke and Annabeth again, especially because he had Zoe. Zoe felt like she could kill Hercules with Percy by her side and they both felt fearless. But Percy had something to look forward to, Grover, Bianca, and Nico.

-LINE BREAK, ALL FRIENDS OF PERCY AT HIS HOUSE-

"Truth or Dare Zoe?" Leo asked with a mischievous smile.

"Dare."

"I dare you to kiss Jason, on the lips." this caused Zoe, Percy, Jason, and Piper to glare at the now laughing Leo Valdez. She looked at Jason in disgust, she didn't like him that much. She had a idea and smirked, she winked at Percy who grinned deviously at her as if reading her thoughts. She stood up and walked towards Jason who looked at her warily. She kissed her knuckles, gave him a smile and socked him in the mouth causing Percy, Leo, and Frank to roar with laughter and the girls minus Piper chuckling.

"What the heck Zoe?" she screamed as she rushed to a bloodied mouth Jason who looked at Zoe in horror. Zoe shrugged and sat down by Percy who wrapped his arm around her shoulders.

"It was either mack with your boyfriend or punch him, I preferred the latter." Zoe said as if it was no big deal. Piper looked at her frowning but then nodded.

"I would prefer you to hit him anytime." she said solemnly while Jason glared at her. This made Leo laugh even harder but when he saw the victims of the kiss dare glare at him he shrunk away.

"Perce truth or dare?" Jason asked once his mouth stopped bleeding.

"What kind of man would I be if I choose truth? I pick dare." he said, teasingly acting cocky, until Zoe introduced her elbow to his ribs. He grunted and flashed Zoe a dizzying smile.

Once she recovered she glared at him, "Jackson, I swear by the gods if you continue to act like Leo." she left the threat in the air, making Percy pale.

"What!? I'm awesome, so is Percy. I should act like this lady killer over there." Leo and Percy high fived making Zoe groan and face palm and everyone laugh.

"Perce, I dare you to take off your shirt and hug Reyna." Jason said as he wagged his eyebrows at Percy and Reyna who blushed and glared at him. He did it to get revenge on Zoe for popping him in the mouth, and as Zoe glared at him he knew he succeeded. Zoe picked up a random paper weight and flung it at Jason who fell again once it hit his chest. Making everyone but Percy laugh again.

Percy didn't want to show them his scars, he told them that he was bullied but never showed them how badly. The only one that new were his mom, Zoe, and Annabeth. Zoe put a comforting hand on Percy's shoulders and he smiled at her, she did fill his life with laughter, she made him feel good.

"They have to find out sometime." she whispered and he knew she was right.

"Your right." he murmured and sme smiled smugly.

"I know." he chuckled and mimicked her voice.

"Nightshade, I swear by the gods if you continue to act like Leo." Zoe looked horrified and Percy laughed until she flicked his ear.

"Yow! Okay okay." he yelped and hastily took off his shirt. Everyone gasped when they saw his criss cross of white scars that marred his chest and back. He ignored them and hugged Reyna who was blushing like a fool. He did have great muscles, she thought as she hugged him back.

"Percy what happened to you?" Hazel asked in horror. Percy sighed and told his story, not leaving a single detail out.

"I'm going to kill him!" Leo roared. Jason was talking about smacking around Luke, Piper was nearly in tears until Jason started comforting her. Reyna threatened to kill Annabeth with few a few choice words that shall not be repeated, Frank and Leo were talking about ways they could avenge Percy. While Hazel just sat there in shock.

"Excuse me, everyone." Percy said making everyone settle down to look at him.

"Those 2 exact people are coming to Roman Empire. Are we gonna let em take our school?" he bellowed and there were a loud course of no's from everyone.

"We are Romans! We wiped out the Greeks years ago, we even beat them at all athletic sports! We will not let these Greeks come in and take our school! We are in charge! We are superior, and Luke and Annabeth can do nothing about it!" Jason finished the rant and they both stood together, a once Greek boy and a roman boy leading the team.

"YA!" everyone cheered. Percy and Jason were natural leaders, this also helped their popularity at Roman Empire. All the Romans had on serious faces until Percy started laughing and the whole room fell apart.

"ROMANS RULE." Leo shouted and suddenly brought out 2 large lighters and danced with them on the couch. Percy ran and got water guns and began to spray Leo who threatened to burn him. Jason started rubbing his socks on the carpet and began shocking the other boys. Frank joined the fun and pretended to be a grizzly bear and tackled Jason to the ground and the 2 began wrestling. All the girls sat there and stared at the boys in amusement.

"Boys." Piper muttered and shook her head. Zoe smiled at Percy and shook her head as she watched him and Leo chase each other around with water and fire.

"Not boys, men." she said looking at directly at Percy.

Sally Jackson chuckled as she stopped recording the truth or dare game that turned into an all out brawl between the boys. Yes, Percy's father really is Poseidon she mused and chuckled as he finally tackled Leo, that's my boy.
