The following morning, Percy and Katie awoke on the couch, having fallen asleep leaning against each other while watching TV the night before. They exchanged embarrassed glances before hastily departing for their respective duties.
At their jobs, both Percy and Katie found themselves immersed in their tasks. Percy's agenda for the day involved engaging with the Furies, managing the Field of Punishment, and determining the appropriate levels of punishment for various individuals. It was a hefty and intricate management task that demanded careful consideration and attention to detail.
Meanwhile, Katie toiled away in Persephone's garden, grappling with the challenge of nurturing plants in the harsh environment of the underworld. Despite her extensive expertise in botany, she found this task to be her most demanding yet. The unforgiving conditions posed a constant challenge, pushing her skills to their limits.
On the other hand, Percy found himself surprisingly adept at managing the Field of Punishment. Unlike the paperwork from the previous day, he discovered a sense of fulfillment in overseeing this aspect of underworld operations. Despite the oddity of enjoying such a grim responsibility, Percy found himself immersed in the task, relishing the sense of purpose it provided.
Throughout the day, Percy found himself engaged in conversations with the Furies, a group he had previously clashed with. Surprisingly, their interactions had evolved from hostile to more professional and civilized, allowing for productive discourse even in the grim context of their activities.
As evening approached, Percy busied himself with reviewing and signing the new punishment plans for individuals. While this task was tedious, it was a welcome reprieve from the overwhelming paperwork of the previous day.
Returning to his office, Percy checked for any new messages from the Fates. Their message reassured him that, for the time being, he would not need to concern himself with trade or other mythological dealings with other underworlds. Instead, his focus would remain on managing paperwork and overseeing the Field of Punishment until he had stabilized in his role.
Leaving his office, Percy made his way to Persephone's garden and found Katie fast asleep from her arduous day of work. Gently lifting her, he carried her to her room and carefully laid her down. Even in her slumber, Katie clung to him, murmuring softly, "Percy, bedroom."
Taking her request in stride, Percy guided her to his master bedroom and tenderly settled her onto the bed. However, Katie still clung to him, seeking comfort in his presence. With a fond smile, Percy joined her in bed, allowing her to cuddle up to him as she would a teddy bear, finding solace in their embrace.
In the morning, Katie and Percy awoke simultaneously, exchanging a sheepish glance. Percy couldn't help but tease with a playful smirk, "Well, this isn't quite how I imagined our first night together."
Blushing furiously, Katie countered, "And how did you imagine it?"
Percy's smirk widened as he replied, "Oh, you know, something that would even make Aphrodite blush, followed by some cuddling."
Katie's blush deepened, and she stammered, "S-so, you're okay with me cuddling up to you last night?"
Percy's expression softened, and he reassured her, "Of course. You were tired, and besides, you're adorable."
Katie's blush intensified at his compliment, feeling a warmth spread through her cheeks.
After getting ready for the day, Katie mentioned, "I suppose it's time to start moving my things into your room." Percy nodded, responding, "Sure, if you need any assistance, feel free to swing by my office. I'll be tackling paperwork all day." "Got it, have a good day," Katie replied.
As Percy headed out, he couldn't resist teasing Katie, planting a gentle kiss on her cheek before leaving the room, leaving her cheeks tinged with a charming blush.
