Hi, just wanted to put a little head's up that this chapter does begin with smut and if you don't feel like reading that then you can just skip till you see bold letters again. Only thing you miss will be the fact that Piper is a bit of a dom. Also thank you all for the comments and everything I love reading y'alls comments. I saw that Price052 had some questions so I'll answer them, if you guys have any questions or anything feel free to ask them in the reviews. Anyway, here are my answers.

Q: Is this a Percabeth slow burn?

A: Yeah, to an extent.

Q: How will the guy(s) Annabeth has been seeing factor in?
A: You will have to wait on how they factor in…maybe in this chapter if I get to it you'll see a bit of it, but definitely in future chapters her past will catch up with her.

Q: When will Annabeth tell Percy about Diana's real dad?

A: Well, Piper said she has until Thanksgiving day, and the current timeline of events has left the story in about early-mid September, so anytime between then lol if I decide to make her stick to what Piper said.

Percy's POV

Remember smut beginning so if you don't want to read just skip till you see bold text again.

After Piper threw her crop top behind me she took full control over everything that happened next. She shoved my face in her tits as she grinded on me and ran her hands through my hair. I sucked and caressed her breasts as she moaned. She then pulled my head back and gave me a deep passionate kiss before stepping back and moving the coffee table back some and dropping to her knees and pulling my sweat pants and underwear down to my ankles. She grabbed my hard dick with her hands and started to slowly tease me with her mouth. I looked down at her and she locked eyes with me before slowly swallowing all of my dick and then slowly pulling away. She then started sucking and licking my tip as she jerked me off with both of her hands. I moaned aloud begging her to keep going. She continued for several more strokes before stopping and spitting in my dick and giving it a long slow stroke as she stood up and hovered over me again. As she lowered herself and inserted me into her she grabbed my face and kissed me as she started slowly moving her hips.

I grabbed her waist and adjusted myself so I could start thrusting into her myself. As I started off slowly and steadily built up speed she again pulled my head into her breasts after making sure my hands were firmly grasping her ass. I kept thrusting for a while until I felt like I was going to finish. I whispered in her ear that I'm close, she then got off of me immediately and stood in front of me. I looked at her with a hurt but confused look before she looked back at the coffee table and sat back on it, spreading her legs and giving me a look. I rolled my eyes and grinned as I leaned over and got on my knees so I could eat her out. She wrapped her legs around my head and locked them behind my neck. As I continued to lick, rub, and finger her she moaned more and more, eventually she dug her hands into my hair and pushed my head down indicating that to keep doing what I was doing. As I kept going her moans got louder and her legs squeezed tighter around my head and neck, before long she finally came and arched her back and screamed my name out. She tried pulling my head back but I kept licking and sucking.

She finally released her legs and shoved me back onto the couch. She laid on the coffee table almost lifeless before slowly sitting up and looking at me, small tears rolled down her cheeks as she looked at me with a smile on her face. She got back on her knees and grabbed my dick, still hard but slowly softening, and wrapped her lips around it. As she started sucking and jerking it slowly again she cupped my balls with her other hand. After I was fully hard again, she straddled me once more before lowering herself on me and riding me again. This time anytime I tried to lift and thrust, she pushed me down and continued moving her waist and riding me, shoving my face in her tits or kissing me and making me hold her by the waist. As she kept this up I started feeling like I was about to cum again, this time I said nothing but pulled her in closer and kissed her before burying my face in her neck and chest as I felt myself fill her up. I let out a deep moan and pulled her closer as I kept going, trying to get every last drop in her. She wrapped her arms around me as well before helping me lay back on the cushions and slowly get off. She said nothing, just leaned over and grabbed my chin and gave me a deep kiss before walking off to my room to clean up.

END OF SMUT YOU CAN COME BACK AND READ FOR DRAMA AND STUFF.

After we cleaned up and made sure there was no evidence of us having had sex in the living room, I started up dinner as Piper got the dining table ready and opened a bottle of wine. Annabeth and Diana soon rang the doorbell and I asked Piper to watch the food while I went to answer it. As I opened the door Diana looked upset, and just stormed in with her little arms crossed across her chest. I looked at Annabeth and she looked drained and upset.

"What's wrong?" I asked, grabbing her beach bags from her and letting her through the door.

"Nothing, Diana just is upset that I wouldn't let her bring her birthday dress she had worn last year because it's too small. And when I tried explaining that to her she wouldn't listen and insisted that I shrank it on purpose." She explained, clearly exhausted.

"Why would she think that?" I said, trying my best not to laugh.

"Because earlier we had gotten in a fight after I picked up at school about going to get her a new birthday dress just in case last year's didn't fit. And when we got to the store they didn't have the same dress anymore and all they had were cute little summer dresses still, she didn't want to wear those so I found a tutu that was poofy and tried convincing her to wear that and I'll get her a pretty shirt or something to wear with it. She threw a fit about wanting a dress so I didn't get her the tutu and shirt and we just went home to find the dress." She said, following me to the guest room to put her bags away.

"Oh, and now that she sees you were right she's upset." I said, placing the bags on the floor in front of the bed and turning to Annabeth.

"Yes, and she got upset and threw a tantrum and accused me of shrinking it and said I was "a bad mommy". So I got upset too and yelled at her to stop crying or we aren't going to celebrate her birthday tomorrow and she'll be stuck being four until next year. Which was totally out of line and out of character for me, I just had a long day and week, and just was stressed and I feel terrible…" She said as she started to quiver and cry. She sat down at the edge of the bed and cried into her hands. I sat down next to her and put my hand on her back to comfort her.

"Hey, you're not a bad mother, she's a kid and doesn't understand logic the same way we do all the time and yeah you yelled back but it doesn't make you a bad mother either, sometimes moms lose their cool but if you understand what you did was not the best way of handling it now you know what do next time. Do you want me to talk to Diana for you and try and get her to see why she shouldn't say things like that?" I said, rubbing her back as she leaned over to rest her head on my shoulder.

"Sure, I need to apologize to her too though for yelling…and saying she was going to be four until next year." She said, still sniffling a bit and picking her head up. She looked at me with red puffy eyes and smiled a little before looking down and sad again.

"What else is going on?" I asked her, leaning in a little.

"Nothing, just work and life." She said, wiping her eyes and laying back on the bed.

"Okay, well if you ever need to talk I'm always here for you." I said, standing up and looking down at her.

"Thanks, Percy." She said, looking at me and smiling a little again.

I told her I was going to talk to Diana now and that she can take her time to recoup in the room by herself. As I walked towards the kitchen I heard Piper and Diana talking.

"-and that's why my mommy's mean and I'm upset." Diana said clearly explaining her version of events to Piper. As I reared the corner and saw her sitting on her knees on an island chair and looking at Piper. She had a small wine glass in front of her with apple juice in it and silly straw.

"Hmm, how do you suppose she shrank the dress?" Piper asked, chuckling a little and stirring the food.

"I don't know, but I know she did." Diana confidently said, before taking a sip of her juice.

"Well I don't know Miss Diana, I've known your mom for a while and I don't recall her ever being able to shrink clothes. Do you think maybe you did grow since last year? You are turning five and that's a big girl's age." Piper said, leaning over and looking at Diana. She looked up and saw me slowly walking toward them, trying not to interrupt their conversation.

"I dunno, maybe. But it's not fair though, I loved that dress." Diana said, sitting back and dropping her head down. As I took a step further the floor creaked and Diana looked behind her.

"Hi Percy, I met your maid Piper. She is telling me Mommy didn't shrink my birthday dress." Diana pouted, pointing to Piper. I did my best to stifle a laugh as I saw Piper's eyes widen in shock as Diana called her a maid.

"One, she's not my maid Diana, she's my friend and a friend of your mommy's. Two, I know all about your dress and while I know it sucks getting bigger, it's still not nice to tell your mom she's a bad mommy and that she shrank your dress on purpose." I said, walking over to her and leaning down to meet her eyes. She looked at me and then looked down, clearly upset and remorseful.

"I know…" She quietly said.

"I know your mom yelled at you and she feels bad for that, but you need to apologize for saying what you said too because you hurt her feelings a lot. She's a good mom and you're lucky to have a mom that loves and cares for you so much." I said, picking her up and setting her on the floor. She stood there and looked at me and nodded.

"Can you go with me?" She asked, grabbing my hand. I nodded and looked up at Piper who was smiling at me and finishing up the pasta.

"Diana, I said I was a friend of your mom's and Percy's. What made you think I was a maid?" Piper asked, as we started walking towards the hallway to the guest room.

"I dunno, you were cooking and gave me apple juice." Diana shrugged and went back to walking me to the guest room. I looked back at Piper and laughed silently as she gave me a death glare and flipped me the bird.

We got to the guest room and the door was closed. I told Diana to go ahead and knock and she did, Annabeth then came to the door and opened it.

"Annabeth, Ms. Diana here has something she would like to say." I said, letting go of Diana's hand and motioning her to go ahead.

Diana looked at Annabeth as she knelt down and apologized for what she had said and that she didn't mean to make her cry. Annabeth apologized too for yelling and assured her that she would turn five tomorrow. After that Diana ran back to the kitchen and Piper called out that dinner was ready.

"Thank you." Annabeth said, as she stepped out of the room and closed the door.

"It was no problem, Piper even helped some too." I said, walking back to the kitchen with her.

"Percy, I'm sorry, I know I've been a shitty friend and our new friendship has gotten off to a shitty start with me kind of using you as a free babysitter. That will stop, I promise, and I will make more of an effort to be a friend and not just someone who hangs out with you after making you watch Diana for most of the night before." She said, stopping in the hall before we reached the living room. I looked at her and could tell she was really genuine about what she just said.

"Why are you apologi-" I started, as I was confused on why she would say that randomly.

"Piper mentioned that you had been feeling like I was taking advantage of our friendship and leaving you feeling less like a friend and more as a glorified babysitter." She said, cutting me off.

"Oh, well I was going to bring that up tonight but… apology accepted, And I'm sorry if she made-" I said, before Annabeth cut me off again saying that I had nothing to apologize for especially for Piper. I nodded and we continued our way to the kitchen.

Dinner had gone well except for Piper grilling Annabeth occasionally and them exchanging passive aggressive remarks from time to time. I mostly tried keeping them distracted by asking Diana stuff about her day. After dinner, Annabeth went and put Diana to bed as Piper and I cleaned up the dishes and put the food away. As we were finishing up, Annabeth came back and thanked us again for making dinner and letting them sleep over.
"Oh you don't have to thank me, it was all Percy's idea." Piper said, smiling at Annabeth as she sat next to Piper at the island bar, who had left me to finish the rest of the dishes. I handed Annabeth a glass of wine and continued loading the dishwasher.

"Well, thank you Percy." Annabeth said, looking at Piper before smiling over at me.

"It's no problem." I said, telling that something was going on between the two of them. Just then Annabeth's phone buzzed a couple of times and she looked down at it.

"It's a bit early for a booty call, isn't it?" Piper said, taking a sip of her wine and giving Annabeth a side eye. Annabeth responded to the text before looking at Piper and taking a sip of wine.

"I don't think so, if 2 pm is a fine time for one then I don't see what's wrong with one at 8 pm." Annabeth said, eyeing Piper as well.

"Okay, you two need to stop. I don't know what happened this afternoon between you both but it's gonna end. I am going to go down to the boat, double check that I have everything I need and that it is full of gas. That gives you guys about an hour to fix whatever drama thing that is going on between you two. Got it?" I said, done with the passive aggressive remarks the two had been exchanging all night.

"Yes." They both said, looking down at their almost empty wine glasses. I rolled my eyes, grabbed the keys off the key rack next to the back door and headed out to the dock.

Piper's POV

As Percy closed the door behind him, I got up and walked over to it and waited before I saw him disappear behind the stairs before locking the door. I turned back to Annabeth who was looking at me, with daggers in her eyes. I grabbed another bottle of wine and poured me a glass before offering Annabeth some more. She looked surprised at my generosity but tipped her glass towards me so I could fill it.

"I told you I wanted a drama-free weekend." I said, placing the bottle down on the counter before taking a sip of my glass.

"I wasn't the one grilling you about your life." Annabeth retorted back, taking a sip from her glass too.

"Well I'm not the one who has a massive secret that they are hiding from Percy." I said, leaning towards her. "And I'm not the one throwing myself at a guy after finding out that my ex wasn't the awful pig I thought he was and that he was and still is the same loving and caring boy I had fallen for and had just spent the last 5 years in literal hell working for my mother just so he could get the chance to see me again."

Annabeth looked at me like she wanted to cry or yell at me, her phone then buzzed again. She looked down at it and it unlocked as she swiped to check the message. Feeling done with her and being just tipsy enough to have the courage to try it I snatched her phone and tried to look at the texts.

"Who… the fuck… is more important… than trying to…fix things with Percy." I said, struggling to maintain control of the phone and be able to read it as Annabeth had lunged over the counter to get her phone back. Eventually I was able to read one of the texts that Annabeth had sent and saw that it said "I'm serious, it's over. I'm just not feeling it anymore, please leave it at that.". I stopped trying to fight Annabeth back and she grabbed the phone from me.

"Can you stop treating me like a bad guy, fuck Piper I was your best friend for years and now you think of me as this awful person. I know I did bad things, I know I fucked up, I know I've been shitty and awful, I know everything you've said or thought about me is 99% true. But I'm trying to change, your little intimidation worked on me this afternoon, I already felt like shit and being called out on it helped after it hurt. I'm breaking things off with the guy I've been seeing and he's pissed because I was supposed to go and sneak out tonight to see him. And I know that is a shitty thing to do and I'm sorry okay. I don't know why I just-I don't know…" She said, rambled going from being angry to sad and almost crying to angry again. I said nothing and just looked at her as she looked at her phone and clearly blocked the dude before facing it down and sliding it off to the side. She laid her head in her hands and began crying.

"I don't know anything anymore Piper. My last nine years have been a fucking lie and I feel like I've gone crazy or something. Think about it, how would you feel if you found out one of your friends lied and manipulated you into breaking up with your best friend and boyfriend all because she was jealous that you were your mom's favorite? Not even an actual mother, just someone who created us and then left us to grow up without her and to be used as child soldiers basically…" She cried, looking up at me before taking a sip of wine again. "But yeah, get manipulated and heart broken over that and then spend the next almost five years believing your ex was this awful cheater and crazily deciding to raise his daughter even though you had no plans of ever telling him. All to just find out from said ex that everything you thought you knew was a lie. Do you honestly think you'd just immediately take him back?" She asked, looking at me with tears streaming down her face. I stood there and looked at her still, trying to let her get everything out while she could.

"Of course you do, because you're perfect and secure in your life. Well not everyone is Piper, not everyone can just be okay and accept things as fast as you. I mean, what was I supposed to do after Percy told me that he chose death over not seeing me again, or when I found out that almost every scar on his body is from having to do my mother's dirty work and that about each one signifies a time that he died? It broke my heart knowing that while he did all of that I still thought he was just an awful, cheating, sleazebag that stopped loving me, loving the girl he fell into Tartarus for… how am I supposed to feel like I deserve him, or that he can even think of loving me after all the pain I caused…" She said, having gotten up and pacing around before standing in front of me and slowly dropping down to the floor and crying again.

I slid down to sit on the floor across from her and placed my hand on her leg. She looked up at me and with tears streaming down her face she reached out and put her hand on mine, grabbing it.

"Annabeth, I don't know how it feels to feel like the past near decade has been built on a lie. And I don't know if I could just immediately take back my ex after finding all that out. And you're right, it is a lot to take in when finding out what happened to Percy in the past five years, but it's a lot harder seeing it happen and knowing that you can't do anything to stop it. That the only way to give him any hope, any ounce of happiness is to just be there for him and hold him when he breaks down or has another nightmare about the day you left. I wanted to give you him so many times, I wanted to send him to you so many times but I couldn't and it killed me. I love him, Annabeth and I would do anything for him, but I am not you. I know that he loves you still and he would do anything for you, and you're right you probably don't deserve him after all the things you've done. But he doesn't care, he just knows that he was the happiest when he had you by his side. All that is standing in the way of you both being happy is the fact that you haven't told him about Diana and you going off on these "dates"." I softly said, holding her hand and wiping her tears.

"I started going out on those dates because I couldn't take the feeling of being around Percy and Diana. I know, that's an awful and selfish and terrible thing to say, but when I saw Percy and Diana interact after that first boat day. It made me think of the fact that this is how my life should be, that if I wasn't so stupid and had seen that I was being manipulated, or had just gotten the courage to call Percy on the day Diana was born. That we could have all been a family at that moment and had just had a fun family day out on the ocean. Feeling that and knowing that I have the power to change that and just tell him…it was a lot and I used an opportunity that had shown up as a distraction…and I let it get out of hand. I know Percy would be ecstatic to find out Diana is his, and you're probably right we could be happy together. But I'm scared, and I feel like if I do tell him the truth, part of him is going to resent me for keeping him from the first five years of his daughter's life. And that resentment will just build until it breaks him." She softly said, looking down at her now empty glass.

"Annabeth, I can't speak for Percy. But I know that the last thing he would do is hold any resentment or anger against you without telling you how he feels or letting it go. And yeah, you could've had a life with Percy and Diana if you had done things differently but that's the past now and as of right now, you still can have that life in the future. But right now…look, I told Percy he should date around before trying to get back with you…and I think right now he needs to keep doing that. At least until he knows the truth about Diana and you two can work something out and try and build that friendship up again. I'm not going to tell him though that he needs to do that or anything but I think you know deep down that you both need time to fix your friendship fully before you can try and be a happy family." I said, grabbing and squeezing her hand as I poured the half of the wine I had in my glass into hers.

She looked up at me and nodded slowly before taking a big sip of wine with me, finishing off the rest of what was left in our glasses.

"I'm sorry, I came off strong and overprotective of Percy and didn't cut you as much slack as I should've." I said, leaning over and giving her a hug.

"I'm sorry too, I should've listened to you all those times before and I'm going to listen to you now though." She said, hugging me back.

There was a knock at the door and we both looked over and saw Percy standing there, waving at us to let him in. We both chuckled a little and I got up to unlock the door.

"Are you guys good now?" He asked as he walked through the door, placing the boat keys back on the key rack.

"Yes, thank you for giving us some girl time." Annabeth said, standing up and placing both empty glasses down on the counter.

"Good. Well everything is ready for tomorrow so why don't we head to bed so we can wake up early?" He said, wrapping his arm around me and looking at Annabeth. She gave a half smile, and nodded.
"How about you head to bed Percy, I think Annabeth and I need to talk just a little bit more." I said, looking up at Percy.

"Okay. Just don't get too drunk. I don't need both of you to be hungover tomorrow." He said, rolling his eyes and smiling as he hugged us both goodnight and walked off to bed.
