A/N: So this little fun piece was written, edited and rewritten all today, and inspired by an episode of American Dad (A great show) and I hope you enjoy!

Tw: drug use

Annabeth poured her coffee as she does every day after pouring Percy his and adding a little bit of sugar. She always adds more sugar than what maybe should be added, but coffee always tastes too bitter for her liking.

"How about some coffee with your sugar?" He smirked. And Annabeth just did not have it in her to laugh at the same joke again. "Something, wrong, babe?"

"No." She sighed.

"Are you excited for spring break?"

"Percy, I've told you a million times that I need to study for my midterm over spring break." Annabeth sighed.

"Oh come on, this is our last spring break as college kids, let's enjoy it." Percy smiled that charming smile she fell in love with all those years ago.

"No, Percy, I'm sorry but actually doing something with my life feels maybe the slightest bit more important than getting drunk for a week straight."

"I don't get drunk, Beth."

"Sorry. Getting high for a week straight." She rolled her eyes.

"I just wish you would take a break for once and come with Reggie to New York for the next week."

"Maybe it'll be good. We could use some time apart."

"I'll miss you."

"Why?" Annabeth scoffed, sipping her coffee.

"Because I love you, Beth."

"I love you, but I won't miss you, I'll see you in no time." She scoffed.

Eventually, Percy was getting high on Grover's couch in New York.

"And then she—" The bong bubbled, and he inhaled. "Told me that she wouldn't miss me." Percy blew out his smoke, handing the bong to Grover.

"Man—" Grover used the lighter and lit the bong, making it bubble beneath his mouth. "That's crazy." Grover said on an inhale. "Boys week, I guess." Grover laughed out the smoke.

"Is Reggie in town this week?"

"I think so." Grover handed Percy his bong again.

"I'm gonna call him. Maybe we can do a MTV style spring break." Percy laughed, going for a third hit.

Showing up at Reggie's house in Scarsdale because, of course, he had a place in Scarsdale; there was loud music blaring from the backyard.

Percy still attempted to knock.

"Hey, Percy, right?" A girl he vaguely recognized asked. "It's— It's me? Jess?"

"Jess!? How are you? It's great to see you." He said, hoping he could get away with not remembering her.

"You don't remember me." Jess said, and Percy sighed, embarrassed.

"Sorry."

"It's okay," she placed her hand on his chest. "You were always distracted at Yancy."

"You're— You're from Yancy?"

"Yeah. We were in Mrs. Kerr's class together?"

"Right— Mrs. Kerr! How are you?"

"I'm okay, I mean, I really missed you after you got expelled." She blushed. "And I mean, look at you now." She looked away.

"Yeah, and look at you! You look great!" Percy didn't remember what she looked like, but he assumed she was just younger and had non-colored hair. She had green streaks in her hair, so he assumed she wasn't born with green hair.
