Percy entered his house and felt a chill go down his back as he was hugged with a wind of warmth . Winter had taken it's toll on New York and he was sure enough to know that.  A few extra blankets had been taken out and if percy spends even 10 minutes without cuddling with his wife , he thinks of it as an achievement

Percy yells a I'm home to make her known of his presence when instantly a shriek arrives from her room . Not bothering about his gloves or shoes he ran into the room . Kicking the door open, he frantically looked around with riptide gripped in his hand only to find Annabeth cozily sitting on their bed .

"What happened?!?" He yelled making absolute sure she was okay

"The baby , percy the baby is kicking!!!" She yelled back . Panic took over him as he did not want to miss his baby's first movement . Throwing his sword away , he struggled to remove his thick gloves  But man were they stubborn . He thrashed his hands around like a mad man even bitting the fabric and trying to get them off . He kept on swinging his hand wildly until he shot one glove flying in the open bathroom . Not caring about that one , worst case scenario:it's wet ... big deal , he placed his free hand on her belly bump and literally tore his other glove out too.  He placed his other hand down too and eagerly waited for a kick . 

Percy , though , felt his heart sink when he felt nothing . His eyebrows furrowed down and he was almost gonna cry out of frustration . First some guy steals and eats his special lunch with annabeth made especially for him along with a batch of his moms recipe cookies , then his co-worker was being a dick so he ended up blasted a pipe in his face for which ,unfortunately , he has to pay half the repair bills and now he even missed the first ever kick his baby gave . Next what , he'll miss it's birth? 

His mind went over imaginative as he felt like he was  gonna be the worst father on earth . Percy looked up to meet annabeth's eye with the most heartbroken expression only to find her trying too hard to hold in her laughter and her phone camera recording everything . He was confused for a second before realising what she had done .

"Annaabeeth! " He whined as he lifted himself off the bed and sent her burst out laughing . He waited foe her to calm down before making sure what he thinks is right "the baby didn't kick in the first place right?" She looked at him once more , shaking her head signalling no , she went into hystericals again . 

"I am sorry .... but your face , priceless" she said as she continued to giggle all the while percy tried to calm his nerves . Suddenly annabeth went bolt right and wide eyed , she stared at percy with all seriousness muttering "the baby kicked "

Percy wasn't falling this time .

He told her that and stood with his hands folded as he waited for her to drop the act but she simply jumped forward and grabbed his hand , gently placing it over her bump and then 

He felt it 

A little kick

His eyes went wide too , as he placed both his hands on her belly and jumped when the baby kicked again . He looked at annabeth to see tears forming in her eyes and he would be lying if he said he wasn't teary eyed too . They both had the biggest smiles on their face and percy's heart was beating real fast with the excitement of the situation .

He brought one of his hands on her cheek and connected their lips together , it was a weird position with him having to bend a lot , but it was so worth it . Later on the watched that video annabeth was shooting of him and relished in the fact that even the first kick had been caught in the film . It didn't have the best frame and percy's head got cut most of the times , but atleast it was there .

He does admit though , his expression was priceless
