By me.

The sun shone brightly over Camp Half-Blood, painting the fields of strawberries with a golden hue. Percy Jackson stretched, feeling the familiar warmth on his skin as he walked past the Athena cabin.

He had an important task today—one that required precision and secrecy. He had to sneak some seashells for his little sister Estelle’s room. A surprise from her "Prince of the Sea" brother.

As he rounded the corner, he spotted Hazel and Piper sitting near the Big House, chatting and laughing.

“Hey, Seaweed Brain!” Piper called, grinning as she twirled a sunflower between her fingers. "Going somewhere?"

Percy narrowed his eyes playfully. “Maybe. Depends on whether you two are going to rat me out.”

Hazel laughed, her warm brown eyes twinkling. “Depends on what you’re up to, Percy.”

He smirked. “Just some casual spoiling of my little sis, nothing big.”

Piper raised an eyebrow. “Again? This is, like, the third time this week!”

Percy shrugged. “What can I say? Being the Prince of the Sea comes with responsibilities.”

"Uh-huh," Piper teased. "What would Annabeth say if she knew you were skipping chores to play the doting big brother?"

"She'd understand," Percy said with a grin. "She loves Estelle too, you know."

"Fine, fine," Hazel said, getting up and tossing him a sunflower. "Add this to the surprise. Tell her it's from her favorite aunt."

"Will do," Percy replied, catching the flower with ease.

As he turned to leave, Piper stopped him. “Percy, wait. You’re always doing these sweet things for others. Ever think of spoiling yourself once in a while?”

Percy paused and gave her a crooked smile. "Nah, spoiling my sister and hanging out with my friends is good enough for me."

Before Piper or Hazel could respond, a familiar voice called out from behind them. “Jackson, you’re not sneaking off again, are you?”

Percy whipped around to find Annabeth standing there, arms crossed, a smirk playing on her lips.

“Busted,” Piper whispered, biting back a laugh.

“Hey, Wise Girl,” Percy said, walking over to her and offering her a sunflower. “Care to join me in spoiling my sister?”

Annabeth took the sunflower and smiled softly. “I wouldn’t miss it for the world, Seaweed Brain.”

As they headed toward the Big House together, Percy couldn't help but feel content. Between spoiling his sister, goofing around with his friends, and spending time with Annabeth, he was living the dream—even if it meant occasionally sneaking off to do it.

Here's the question for this oneshot:
