Hi. So its been forever and ever since I updated sorry. But, Im back and hopefully I will update at least every other week. So yea enjoy..

DISCLAIMER: I DONT OWN ANY OF THE PERCY JACKSON CHARACTERS OKAY THANKS

Rachel has been here for 1 month. I haven't talked to her at all. Call me a chicken or whatever, I'm scared of her rejecting me again or punching me in the face. Percy has been pestering me about it the whole time and I am so. fucking. done. The last time he burst into my apartment yelling about Rachel getting a job at the backery down the street he left with a sprained wrist and a black eye. Its his fault he voleentered to train me and he happened to be really good at hand to hand combat.

knock knock "Hey Octavian? Um, Its Rachel. Annabeth is forcing me to talk to you and she has a knife aimed at my throat and I want to live another day so if you-" I lunge at the door

"ANNABETH I SWEAR TO THE GODS-"

"Nice boxers Jackass"

"Rachel"

"Yup thats my name. sorry about the way I acted when I got here that was uncal-"

"I-I, sorry. Annabeth put the dagger away. Come in, there is food in the fridge. Im going to get dressed then we can talk. ANNABETH KNIFE AWAY" I run to the bathroom in my apartment grabbing random clothes in the hallway. I hear them laughing from the kitchen. Holy crap. She was apoligizing, what do I do. I put on the shorts and Camp Jupiter T-Shirt I grabbed. I look in the mirror and try to fix my unruly hair. GAH! forget it. I quickly brush my teeth an effort to be somewhat presentable. One last look in the mirror and I'm out the door going to the kitchen

"Err, sorry I don't have much. been busy with work." I stutter. really octavian, you've been busy with work?

"Its cool. Annie already ate half the resturant, so I don't think she's hungry." Rachel laughed her green eyes lighting up.

"I havn't had time to eat in between moving in with Percy and registering for college. for both me and him. And I did not eat that much." Annabeth punched her friend lightly in the arm. She gave me a look that said make small talk invite her to coffee do somehting you IDIOT.

I gave them a small laugh "So uh. I haven't got much to do here besides watch cartoons-"

"Really?," Rachel burst out laughing, probably cause I always acted so serious and the thought of me watching sponge bob was hilarious. "I thought you'd be the kind of person to watch documenteries on squirels or- or-"

"OKAY! How about this, Annabeth can go do her stuff with Percy because we all know they aren't just moving funiture. and you can join me for a cup of coffee and walk in the park. no weapons." Annabeth's jaw dropped and Rachel fell on the floor laughing.

"WE ARE JUST MOVING FURNINTURE I SWEAR. You and Piper are so IMMATURE!" I helped Rachel up from the ground laughing at Annabeth's reaction.

"Lets go Otavian. Annabeht, just remember to use protection!" Rachel yelled as we ran out the door, tossing her a spare key so she could lock the apartment behind her. ohmygodsohmygodsRachelisholdingmyhandohmygodscalmdown

"Starbucks or some off-brand?" I asked giving her hand a small squeeze.

"Oh. You know I love a good cup of over-priced, over-sugered coffee" She replied, intertwing our fingers even more. This is going to be an amazing day.
