Percy And Annabeth Go To Beacon Hills

The First Mourning

ANNABETH Pov

I woke up pleasantly, with a certain Seaweed Brain's arms wrapped securely around my middle. While I don't like being vulnerable, I know these arms will let go at the slightest nudge. I unwrap the arms and push him a little, to no avail. How he wakes up to little noises during the night and not to me shaking him, I will never know. Though I do know that if I hit him, I will end up with a broken wrist and he will feel nothing, stupid curse. I get off the bed only to snap my head toward the door a the sound of it being banged on from the other side. I walk over, first looking down to make sure I'm decent, which I am, then open the door to be faced by the ki- by Scott, a child of Athena never forgets a name. Scott has a look on his face like he has been thinking to much on one thing, trust me I know that look, I do have a mirror.

"Hey just wanted to let you know that my mom is home. She is happy you guys are here, don't get me wrong, but you may want, Percy, to get out of your bed before she regains consciousness", sounding like he had spoke from experience, I looked toward kelphead and sighed as quietly as I could manage, still being half asleep.

"He wakes up to the smallest of sounds in the middle of the night, but I shook him, almost off the bed in an effort this mourning already. Mourning's must be natural.", before I could catch myself I finished with, "A monster could be just a few feet away and he would not notice.", for some reason he stiffed up at the word monster, but if he was a monster he would have taken advantage of two sleeping demigods at night rather than give them a peaceful nights rest.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw the lump of blankets stir and let out a sigh of relief to have a change of subject.

"Looks like he's waking up.", I look back to awkward standing, fellow teenager, gods I can't think of myself as only 18 with what I've been though, Percy more so, and him a slight genuine smile and assure him that I will get him down soon seeing he is starting to wake up anyway. Closing the door only slightly, not all the way as not be rude, turning back to the bed and smiling and throw a pillow toward Perce and say, maybe a little to loud, "Wake up Kelphead!".

PERCY Pov

"Wake up Kelphead!", were the first words I heard as I woke up. Granted they came from my Wisegirl's mouth, but I still did not enjoy being woken up so early, 7:30, I noticed as I looked at the clock.

"Wisegirl, why, why is the name of Zeus, do you feel compelled to wake me up at this ungodly hour?", why the curse does not tire me, I still am man, boy whatever, who likes his sleep as if the curse did tire me. Then I remembered my dream, my conversation with dad, and the fact that Annabeth had had a nightmare the night before, probably the reason she is up so early. Though I did not have a nightmare I now have something very important to announce to my girlfriend, my precious Wisegirl. Said Wisegirl must have notice my smile drop along with my head back to the oh so comfortable pillow, because she had to disrupt my procrastination by speaking up against my sleepy fall to the bed.

"What's wrong? Oh, and I woke you up because apparently Melissa is asleep, but may wake up and not want to find to lovers in bed." she told me baring a playful smirk across that face of hers.

"Oh.", I said copying her smirk then again I remembered my dream fingering the new charm that is now in the middle of my clay beads." I did not have a nightmare. Instead my dad came to talk to me. Which would not have be so bad if he did not burden me with something new.", I saw her eyes grow full of worry as I continued," He said that because the gods did not free Calypso, as per my wish after the titan war, after they had sworn on the Styx, that they needed to grant me something in turn for breaking their promise, seeing as though they cannot directly pay for it."
