Percy's POV just for his birthday
____________________________

My birthday was never something I widely celebrated, it was right after the end of camp and it's not like I had many school friends to invite either way. However this year Chiron decided to let camp run a bit later meaning my 18th birthday was about to be one one of the best days of my life.

__SKIPPING THROUGH TIME__

"Happy birthday to you!!" The group of all my friends finished singing, and I laughed as I went to blow out the candles on the cake they had set in front of me, except Leo beat me to it instead.

"Sorry man, the temptation was too great." He shrugged. I rolled my eyes and chuckled as I scanned the group gathered in the Poseidon cabin once again.

We had the seven, Nico, Tyson, a few of Annabeth's siblings, the Stoll brothers, and even Clarisse was here.

"Happy birthday Perce." Annabeth whispered as she kissed my cheek, handing me a piece of cake (coloured bright blue of course)

"Thank you," I kissed her forehead lightly in return.

"Alright gift time!" Connor Stoll exclaimed.

"We literally just started eating." Jason stared at him

Connor rolled his eyes exasperatedly. "It's called multitasking people, now let's go I really want Percy to see what we got him." He winked at me before heading over to the corner stacked with some gift boxes.

"Should I be concerned?" I leaned over and whispered to Annabeth, who seemed to consider this for a moment before stating.

"Yes."

The gifts were to say... interesting at the very least. I received a new handmade shield from Tyson, engraved with a brand new set of pictures. A pocketknife with a few extra demigod essentials that had my name carved into it from Piper, two nerf guns from Leo because, quote on quote "you're never too old", a few other things and at last a premier edition authentic aqua man suit from the Stolls. "Do you love it? You know you love it."

Now with the bundle of wrapping paper and empty boxes surrounding me I turned to Annabeth.

"Where my gift?" I poked her side teasingly. She rolled her eyes.

"You're lucky I even showed up okay."
I raised an eye brow at her and she sighed.

"Here." She tossed me a small rectangular package that was shaped vaguely like a book.

"What is it?" I asked suspiciously.

"You'll have to open it and see." She shrugged.
I ripped open the wrapping paper to find... a book.

"Mr... Mr..." I squinted trying to read the title, my dyslexia turning the letters into alphabet soup.

"Mr. Mercedes, it's by Stephen King. This is one of my favourites of his."

"Oh, well thank you." I replied leaning in for a kiss. She held up her hand to stop me and laughed.

"You've never been a good lier." She chuckled, looking at my confused expression she said. "Open it up."

Still befuddled I opened up the front cover, the stuff spine creaking as it was opened for the first time. Inside lay two tickets, but not just any two tickets. Two luxury box tickets to the upcoming opening game for the Giants. My jaw fell open.
