Percabeth One Shots

Gemma pt. 2

Here is Part 2, requested by Riptide_the_pen. I made some edits to the first part, so go back and read it if you've read it before 17.04.2021! 

By the way, here is a list of Percabth's children in this story to make it a little less confusing: 

Selina Grace Jackson - Age: 4 

Charlie Ethan Jackson - Age: 3 

Luke Jackson - Age: 3 

Zoe Bianca Jackson - Age: 7 months 

Happy reading!! 

As quickly as I could, I got changed. I pulled on my bikini and studied myself n the mirror. My hair was perfectly straight, my water-proof makeup was flawless and my bright yellow bikini, with it's pink and white blossoms was beautiful against my newly tanned skin.

Nervously, I stepped out onto the roof.

That's when I saw him. His raven black hair was scruffy and windswept, and his sea-green eyes glinted in the sunlight. Percy Jackson. 

When I stepped out onto the roof, there were already a few people there. I recognised most of the from work, but there were also so many faces that I didn't recognise. 

Splashing around in the pool, was a scrawny Latino. Sat on the edge, laughing at him, was a beautiful blonde dressed in a white two piece. 

The next two people I saw were completely different from each other, though it was clear they were a couple. One of them had dark hair and dressed completely in black, but the other was blonde with red trunks and a white shirt. 

The final pair were two women. One of them looked completely gothic. The other looked just as fierce but dressed in a simple jeans and blouse. 

I walked over to the deck chairs that littered the decking around the pool and dumped my bag down onto one of them. 

To my surprise, the pool was huge, despite being less than half the size of the roof. 

That's when I decided to make my move. I walked away from my bag toward the pool, where Percy was moving Nemo arm bands from in the water to a box on the decking. 

"What'cha doing?" I asked. I swear he leapt five feet in the air. I laughed and he spun around to face me. 

"Oh," He sighed, "Thank the Gods it just you," 

Just me? What's that supposed to mean? 

"Who else were you expecting?" I asked, still giggling. Percy smiled and I had to stop myself from fainting. 

"No one," He told me. I looked behind him at the box. In there, were numerous Disney armbands and what looked like a Little Mermaid lilo. 

"Umm... what's that?" I asked pointing to the box. Percy glanced at it and blushed a little, 

"They're Selina's," He told me. Who's Selina? "Oh, umm, I have to greet some more people. I'll catch up with you later, okay?" I nodded as he walked away from me. 

I watched as two people stepped out of the door and onto the roof. One of them was a woman with curly cinnamon hair and golden eyes. Holding her hand, was a very tall man with a babyish face. 

Who were these people? 

"Hey Gemma, you getting in the pool?" I heard someone say from beside me. I looked over and saw Jade. She - like me - was an assistant to Percy's agent. Why in the world he needed two assistants was beyond me, but I wasn't complaining. 

"Umm... Sure, why not?" I shrugged. Me and Jade both made out way over to the steps of the pool. 

"After you," I said politely, and Jade ambled down the steps. 

If mentally scoffing is a thing, I did it. Jade was practically orange, as oppose to my beautiful tan. My bikini was perfect, whereas hers was average at best - white with swirled green and blue ferns. 

I stepped in after her, careful not to get my hair wet. It worked... until Percy decided to cannonball...

"Percy," Jade complained. I splashed her, and she scowled at me, 

"It's his pool he can do what he likes," I told her. She just rolled her eyes and swam off to the other end of the pool. Just then, Percy resurfaced, right in front of me, 

"Oh, hey Gemma," He said. I smiled, 

"Hey," I replied. At that moment, the door to the roof opened, and six other people had entered.

 One of them was a man with blonde hair and electric blue eyes who was holding hands with a very pretty Cherokee girl, with chocolate hair and deep brown eyes. In her arms she held a small baby, although it looked nothing like her, with curly black hair and grey eyes. 

"Hey, Perce, who-" I began, but I then realised that he had gotten up and walked over to the newbies, 

"Hi Pipes," He said, approaching the Cherokee woman, 

"What's up Kelp face?" She replied, a little angrily, "Here's your daughter. She doesn't shut up," 

Percy laughed and took the child from her arms. Daughter? I didn't know Percy had a child... Where was the mother?

"Well, thanks for babysitting her," He said smiling, 

"Hey, where are Luke and Charlie?" Jason asked looking around. Who? I bet they were friends of Percy's. I pushed that thought to the back of my mind and stepped swiftly out of the pool. 

As I did, the entire crowd of people who I didn't recognise swarmed Percy. 

Thankfully, according to my pocket mirror, my makeup was waterproof and didn't seem to have smudged, 

"Hey Percy, who's this?" I asked motioning to the new group of people. 

"Oh, hey Gemma. Umm... this is Jason, Piper, Leo, Calypso, Nico, Will, Hazel and Frank," He told me, pointing to each person in turn. I smiled at each of them and they returned it with calculating glares. 

"They can be a little intense," Percy laughed. Everyone's faces relaxed. 

"Happy birthday by the way, Percy," Said the woman called Hazel, whose arm was linked with Frank's. 

Percy's face blushed a deep red, 

"It's your birthday?" I frowned. He nodded sheepishly, 

"Which means it's also your anniversary," The blond called Jason pointed out. Percy smiled, 

"Yeah. I actually don't know where Annabeth is. She told me to focus on my birthday," 

Nico and Will shared a look that Percy seemed to miss. My brain started swimming with a million questions. 

Who was Annabeth? Who were Charlie and Luke? Who was this baby? How did Percy know these people?

Finally I decided to go with the most simple question that I could think of, 

"And what's her name?" I motioned to the baby, who was now sleeping in Percy's arms, 

"This is Zoe Bianca Jackson," He said proudly. Nico seemed to tense at this, filling my head with even more questions. I forced a smile. 

"Your daughter," I guessed and he nodded proudly.
