Never getting away from me again

Crawling

PERCY POV
   I still can't believe Annabeth is pregnant again, I know she just had Zoë 7 months ago but I can't wait for another baby to be around the house.
 
   After we got home last night Annabeth took a shower and went right to sleep.
   I gave Zoë and bath and sat down on the rocking chair in her room to rock her to sleep.

   "Zoë your going to be a big sister and your going to have a little brother or sister and you're going to be the best big sister ever. But listen to me when I say this, for the next few months you have to be extra nice to mama." I tell her and she looks confused.
I laugh and she falls asleep after a few minutes so I put her into her crib and walked into my room to see Annabeth fast asleep. I laid down next to her and fell asleep.

•••••••

I woke up before Annabeth and Zoë so I went into the living room and got a glass of water. I sat down on the couch and saw the box with the onesie and pregnancy test Annabeth gave me yesterday. I look at one onesie again it says, "happy birthday daddy see you soon! Love the little life growing in mamas stomach!"
I smile and put it back in the box. Annabeth walks into the living room with a giggly Zoë on her hip. She hands Zoë to me and sits down on the couch. "Good morning." She says and yawns.

We lay on the couch and watch Zoë babble and play with her hands until she gets bored and climbs onto my chest and poke at my face. I pretend to bite her finger and she pulls it away and giggles.

"Well what do you want for breakfast?" I ask Zoë and she looks at me confused before poking my face again.
   Annabeth smiles,
   "I was going to make a smoothie and a small one for Zoë but you can have whatever." 
  I ask her to make me a blueberry smoothie and she heads into the kitchen.

    ANNABETH POV.

  I make a strawberry banana smoothie for me and Zoë can have a little bit.
   I make Percy a blueberry one and brought it to him.
I put Zoë in her high chair and put a little bit of my smoothie in a bowl and feed her.
  She smiles and opens her mouth for more. She finished the bowl and opened her mouth for more. I laugh and picked her up which results in her tugging on my hair.
    I took her into her room found a adorable outfit. It's a white onesie and denim overalls.
  
   Her hair is getting longer and has some curl to it so I comb that and take her into the living room.
   "Hey Annabeth it's such a nice day wanna go for a walk?" Percy asks me. I think about it, "Yeah, Zoë needs some fresh air." I say and put Zoë in her stroller.
   Percy puts his shoes on and we walk outside.    We find a little park and sit on the grass.
   I put Zoë on her back and she rolls to her stomach. I laughed and talked with Percy for a little bit. He stoped in the middle of a sentence and looked shocked. I look where he was looking and Zoë was trying to crawl to him. "Come on Zoë you can do it!" He says and she eventually makes it over to him.

  I smile and clap. "Good job baby." I say and kiss her cheek. Percy smiles and puts her on the ground.  She gets on her hands and knees and makes it a little farther then before but she fell down not long after. We spent the rest of the morning at the park until Zoë fell asleep. We put her in the stroller and walked home.
"I have a ultrasound next week at four" I tell Percy.
   "I still can't believe your pregnant, what day?" He asks. I think for a moment,

  "Friday, and I can't believe it either."

    He smiles and kisses me before we walk in the front door.  I leave Zoë in her stroller so I don't wake her.

   Percy comes in, "Jason called and wants to meet us for lunch." He tells me. "Ok after Zoë wakes up sure." I say. He calls Jason back and we sit on the couch. Percy looks at me,

   "Have you thought of any baby names yet?" He asks.
"No, well I was thinking of Elina for a girl but I don't have anything for a boy." I tell him. He thinks, "I like Elina and maybe Hunter or Ethan for a boy?" He says.

   "I like Hunter." I say when Zoë starts crying. Percy gets up and goes into her room. He walks out and she's smiling in his arms.
   I call Piper and tell her we are on our way to their house.
We get into the car and drive to their house. Percy and I decided to keep the baby a secret from the others for a little while longer. We are going to let Piper and Jason be in the spotlight for a little bit. We pull up into their driveway and Piper walks out.
"Hey Annabeth how are you?" She asks and hugs me. "I'm doing good how's the baby?" I say and whisper the last part.

    "They're doing good I got a ultrasound yesterday and I'm about 4 weeks along." She says.
  
   We walk into the house and she takes Zoë off of Percys hands. I help Piper make lunch and when everyone sits down Jason says, "Piper already told me that Annabeth knows but I'm going to be a father."
  Percy smiles,
"Congrats man, this is amazing."
 
    "Congratulations guys I hope this baby makes you guys very happy!" I tell them. We talk for a little while longer before the boys head into the backyard with Zoë because she was getting fussy.

  PERCY POV
"Do you like being a dad?" Jason asks while I watch Zoë attempt to crawl after a Robin.
 
    "Dude, this is going to be the best thing to ever happen to you. Don't get me wrong, I love Annabeth but these little guys will change your entire life. Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart, and I know it sounds cheesy but it's true."
  Zoë crawls over to us and climbs onto Jason's lap trying to reach his glasses.
I laugh and hand her one of her toys so she stops messing with Jason.
  "Your kid is going to break those things, I hope you know that. Now that Zoë can crawl we have to baby proof the entire house and get rid of anything that can break."

Jason laughs before we head inside to help clean up lunch.
