Chapter 5

"I definitely missed a sex ed class. No, I must have missed all of them apparently" Rachel concluded aloud.

A pregnant pause and then Annabeth burst out laughing. Her laugh didn't stop for a whole minute and when she was finally done she occasionally giggled while trying to breathe through her laughter. Percy had a slight smile on his face as he gazed at his wife's hysterics.

After she calmed down she gave Percy a look and he began to explain in the simplest terms he could.

"Please don't ask, Dad explained. It just has something to do with the life bearing sea which gives any child of Poseidon, as in boys or girls, the ability to get pregnant and give birth." He simplified a blush lighting up his cheeks as he spoke.

"At least that explains why you are bundled up so tightly when its not even half as cold as when Khione makes it snow." Reyna murmured.

"Thank you! Annabeth is just being super over protective" Percy said triumphantly agreeing with her.

"I am not. I am just making sure the baby will be ok, besides can you honestly say you wouldn't do the same thing if I were pregnant." she said defending herself.

Percy went red as he stuttered a bit before falling quiet and slowly nodding his head before taking a sip from his hot chocolate.

"So no complaining from you, Percy," she said with a smile.

Percy made a noise in the back of his throat before taking a swing of his hot beverage. Reyna gave him a sympathetic look before smiling wide and hugging Percy and giving an uncharacteristic squeal.

"What! I love babies" she muttered after noticing the looks thrown at her.

Rachel also smiled and hugged Percy giving his still very flat stomach a rub.

"Man I can't wait until you become a whale. You will look so cute." Rachel said.

"A whale?" Percy questioned.

"Yeah, you have a person inside of you it would be worrying if you didn't gain weight, so Annabeth has to be able to guarantee she will fatten you up." Reyna explained.

Percy's face morphed into one of dread as he realized what this meant he had to sacrifice his body for his baby. He heaved a sigh before also looking at his flat stomach mournfully rubbing it along with the abs he worked very hard for.

"Don't worry you will lose that baby weight in no time I promise." Annabeth whispered.

"You won't ever think of me as fat even when I'm as big as a whale?" he whispered.

"Even then." she promised leaning in giving Percy a sweet chaste kiss and then giving his stomach a kiss.
"We have to go. We are trying to tick people off our list before Percy's first trimester or before Poseidon's mer-person helper comes so no one is confused."

Reyna and Rachel nodded before hugging them both as Percy and Annabeth walked out the door.
They walked down the road leading them home. They murmured quietly to each other all they could talk about was there pending parenthood.

"Percy come on get up," Annabeth urged as Percy slowly woke up. He stretched like a cat before groggily opening his eyes, question marks all over his face.

"What is it Annabeth?" he asked while brushing his messy hair out of his face.
"We have to get ready for the baby. Percy come on," she said dragging Percy out of bed and handing him some clothes.

After Percy got ready he had a quick breakfast of cereal before he and Annabeth headed out the door.
Annabeth lead him to Terminus's line where they gathered their weapons and headed to the shopping center.

He followed Annabeth to the only store they mattered to them at the moment. A baby store.
"Annabeth why in the world are we shopping for baby stuff now?" Percy asked her.

"You know me Percy plus having every thing now means less stress for you and the baby." She explained walking toward the section filled with cribs.

They shopped for hours Annabeth finally finishing up for the day, when Percy spotted something and squealed unexpectedly. Percy raced to the baby blue outfit with an owl on it.

"This is perfect," he decided holding it up.

Annabeth's eyes widened as a smile lighting up her face before settling in a straight line "Percy clothes is tomorrow" she said ready to counteract whatever he may say.

"Please Annabeth" he said pulling what Piper called his baby seal face.

They did end up buying the admittedly adorable outfit even if Annabeth planned some clothes for tomorrow.

They headed to their home eating a quick lunch, Percy having lemonade, because Annabeth banned him from soda. Caffeine is not good for pregnancies she explained.

They got home and set their bags in Annabeth's office, which was going to be converted into the baby's room before Percy even hit his first trimester. Percy's incredulous face upon the news causing Annabeth to turn into a surprising shade of red.

They finally got everything in their home and ate sandwiches along with fruit punch before heading to bed.

The day finally getting too them, they fell into a deep sleep but the only thing Percy could dream about was the reactions of the people he and Annabeth loved.

While the only thing Annabeth could think about were her plans for the baby's room and the baby proofing she had to get done. She had to make sure they were completely ready for this baby, and she would make sure they were.

People aren't really answering my pole which is in my profile even though they can just vote in the comments and I have this story on 3 different websites I hope to update in a week but if there is no winner I will pick the couple my self but I don't want to that is why the question is super easy so first person to answer the prize is the same one I stated in the last chapter.

QotC: What did Percy compare the cupcake Annabeth and Tyson made him too?

P.S Happy Birthday Perseus Jackson!
