3/4- Spring break

-Omniscient narrator-

It was probably the fourth time Vic had told Percy to not call her that.

She was on her cabin, while Percy was on his bedroom.

"Oh, c'mon!" Percy said through the Iris-message. "What is so wrong about bro, bro?"

"I'm not your bro!" Vic protested. "You can call me whatever you want– but not bro, mate."

"Okay," Percy smirked. "So, I can call you V or Cloudy Head, how's that?"

"If you have a death wish, then sure, Kelp Head, go ahead."

Percy sighed dramatically. "That's what my mum said when I told her I'd eat Paul's birthday cake. Except she called me Perseus."

"Your mum's the best." Vic said. "Have I ever told you that?"

"Only about a hundred times per Iris-message." Percy muttered. "The thing you compliment the most about me it's my mum, you know?"

"Can you blame me?"

"Nah." The boy said. "Not really."

"Wanna know what's really noticeable?"

"Hm?"

"That you're really tired, Percy. What did you do?"

Percy ran a hand through his dark hair, thinking about his day. "You remember when I told I'd try and take the last spot for the swimming team?"

"Yeah, so? It couldn't have tired you out. You're the son of the Sea god!"

"I know." Percy said. "But I ran into a taekwondo class and got my ass kicked."

"You don't know hand to hand combat?" Vic asked.

"And you do?"

"Well... The basics." Vic said. "Should've done that when I was an unclaimed."

Percy sat up, looking interested. "Talking about things you should do, when are you gonna ask Annabeth out?"

"Right." Vic muttered. "I said I'd do it, didn't I?"

"Well?"

"I don't know!"

"Oh my gods." Percy sighed. "Silena was right."

"Since when–"

"Grover told her I was the second one to know about you admitting it." Percy shrugged. "We're sorta friends."

"Really? That's a good thing, Perce. She's a really good friend."

"Don't change the topic." Percy warned. "What don't you know?"

"What if she doesn't like me back?"

"You did not just say that."

"I kind of did, you know."

"It's bullshit, Vic!" The boy shouted. "Uh, sorry, mom– as I was saying, there's no way in hell she doesn't like you. I mean, that very, very expensive necklace you're wearing. With the V pin– who gave you that, Vic?"

"Anne did." Vic muttered. "But like, what if-if we're just really close friends?"

"Talk about stupid."

"You're one to talk!"

"She kissed your cheek!" Percy said. "Twice!"

"Three times, actually." Vic corrected. "Once, in Christmas before I got claimed–"

"You're just proving my point."

"Am not." Vic protested. "I mean, Silena– she kisses Clarisse's cheek like all the time. But no one is saying they're madly in love with each other, because Silena and Beckendorf are endgame."
