Percy's pov:
"Why didn't you let me talk to her moon?" I ask looking down at the girl in my arms. Calypso is sitting in between my legs with her back pressed against my chest as we watch reruns Sherlock Holmes- her favourite series. She looks up at me, her expression careful. I know she understood whom I'm referring to, but is just contemplating how to answer it. She opens her mouth to say something, but then shuts it quickly, deciding against it.
Piper told us that Annabeth wasn't feeling well today and hence was unable to come down to join us in the basement's game room. She didn't come down the whole day though, not even to eat. She hasn't spoken a word to me since I revealed my relationship with Calypso, and this sudden change in her behaviour is worrying me. I was going to confront her during dinner, but the girls stopped me from doing so. They somehow convinced me to not go to her room and check up on her and promised me that they'll make sure she eats something. I would not have given in to their requests though if not for Calypso persuading me to not go up.
A long sigh escapes from her lips as she mutters something under her breath. The frown on her face and the troubled look in her eyes shows her unwillingness to discuss this matter. She seems conflicted and I decide to put an end to it.
I gently hold her hands and whisper "tell me when you're ready to, okay?" She releases a sigh of relief and her tense shoulders relax.
I smirk when I hear the sharp intake of her breath as I kiss her earlobe. I love the way she reacts to my touch. I slide my nose down her neck, teasing her, my lips barely touching her skin. She quickly climbs off the bed as soon as my grip on her loosens. She grins mischievously down at me before running out of the room. I shake my head and turn off the television before following her out of the room. I find her drinking a glass of water in the living room with her back facing towards me. She keeps the glass down on the coffee table and turns around to find me smirking devilishly at her.
"You're not getting away from me tonight Ms Atlas" I say as I slowly make my way towards her. Her eyes slightly widen and she opens her mouth to retort but I grab her waist and push her up against a wall, silencing her. I lean down to gaze into those beautiful eyes and keep a hand on the wall beside her head. Dilated pupils, parted lips, erratic breathing- Gods, she's beautiful. I crash my lips onto hers, unable to hold back any more. She responds just as fiercely and buries her fingers into my hair, bringing me closer. I close the little gap between our bodies and push my body against hers as my fingers tangle in her silky hair. She releases a gasp and I take the opportunity to enter my tongue and explore her mouth. The entire world seems to have faded around me and her moans are the only sounds my ears capture. The feel of her warm, soft lips on mine, her fingers grazing my neck as they tug at my hair- her touch, it's heavenly. Her intoxicating cinnamon smell consumes me, clouds my senses, and rids my mind of all rational thoughts. My body burns with lust and passion and I just want more. She's breathing heavily when I pull apart and so am I. I lean my forehead on hers, my eyes shut tightly. My hands crave to touch her, feel her, make her mine. I pick her up and she wounds her legs around my waist as I walk towards my bedroom. I kick the door close and place her down on my bed, instantly claiming her lips. Peppering her jaw and neck with kisses, I bite and suck her sweet spot near her collar bone, marking her as mine. A shiver suddenly runs down my spine and I feel her delicate hands running over my abs. She pulls away my shirt as her hands roam all over my body. Fuck it feels good. I remove her shirt in a quick motion and- shit, she's breathtaking, literally. I gulp as I gape at her underneath me. It's been so long. I run my hands over her soft, fair skin and sexy curves, taking in her beauty. I feel her squirm under my touch as I kiss her down to her waist. I look into her eyes- silently asking her a question- as my fingers slightly slip under her shorts. She nods and that is all it takes me to finally remove the barrier in between our bodies and claim her as mine. I raise up my head from the crook of her neck to kiss her, but the sight of her under me stops me and I take a moment to soak in her beauty- long hair spread all over the pillow, skin glistening with sweat under the soft light, nails raking my back as she moans and sighs my name as I make love to her- Gods, how my eyes yearned to see her like this again. How did I survive two years without her? I peck her on the lips and bury my face into her shoulder, groaning.
I pull her up to my chest and close my eyes, breathing heavily. She looks up at me once our breathing calms down and pushes back my slightly sweat soaked hair.
"I love you." I say tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear.
"I love you too" she says smiling softly.
I release a sigh and kiss her forehead before switching off the lights and pulling the blanket over us.
I feel a weight on my chest as I open my eyes. My arms are wound tightly around her bare body and the events of last night coming rushing back to me. I kiss her bare shoulder and feel her shift under my arms. She opens her eyes and smiles up at me.
"Morning" she whispers, but she seems quiet awake.
"Morning love. You were awake, weren't you?" I ask sleepily.
"Yeah, you looked adorable with that little drool and messy hair so I didn't wake you up." she says grinning.
"Or maybe you were just ogling at my body" I say smirking, kissing her nose.
She swats my chest chuckling before getting up and going towards the bathroom.
"Wait for me!" I call out before stopping her from shutting the door in my face.
"Perseus" she warns, the amused look in her eyes betraying her.
"Just trying to save water Cal" I say shrugging my shoulders before forcing myself inside and locking the door behind us.
TIME SKIP
We go down to find lots of yelling and cursing coming from the dining room. I look towards Calypso with a raised eyebrow and she merely shrugs her shoulder. We go in to find what the commotion is about, and believe me it's not what I expected.
Calypso gasps and a small smile tugs at her lips while the only thing going through my mind is- What the fuck is he doing here?
