What If?

<6> Chocolate.... Everything.

The happy family got icecream together, Percy got the only blue icecream there was on the menu which was blueberry, it tasted good in Percy's opinion. He just wished they would dye more of the flavors blue instead of just blueberry.

They all got back in the car Percy in the driver's seat this time while Annebeth sat in the passengers side licking up the side of her double chocolate cone.

The kids both got dino sunday's with a dino cookie in them, hence the name dino sunday.

Percy didn't understand hwy they looked good to the kids though, it was just vanilla icecream with a cookie and some chocolate shavings on top.

Percy shrugged it off and after a minute of eating their icecream peacefully Percy grabbed the keys and turned them until the engine came to life before he rolled the windows up and pulled out of the the driveway in front of the icecream shop and onto the quiet road before starting to head home as everyone else finished their cones.

After a few minutes of driving Annabeth looked back and saw her two kids sleeping soundly in the backseat leaning their head on each other. Annabeth smiled right before Zoe let out a big snore making Annabeth chuckle before sitting back comfortably in her seat looking at the road ahead of them.

"Apparently somehow our kids got the need to nap from Nico." Annabeth whispered and Percy glanced over wondering if this Nico was a close friend to their family or just one of Percy's buddies that he didn't even know he had.... Maybe he didn't have any.

"Yeah." Percy breathed out. he wondered if he should tell Annabeth about that he had another life. That he was famous, he was even engaged to a pretty girl.

Percy looked over at Annabeth again and saw her resting her face in her palm her elbow on the car door keeping her upright. He hair was messy and looked windblown making her look like one of those models in magazines. Her cheeks were a light pink as her face shown a happy expression. her legs were crossed with her fingers slipped in between her thighs.

Percy looked back at the road and decided not to tell her, if he really was living this and it wasn't a dream. What was the point of telling her about another life that he would never obtain again?

Plus telling her he was engaged to another girl probably would've hurt her feelings.

Ya know.

Percy sighed and saw their house in the distance as they drove towards it soundly.

Percy pulled into the driveway inwardly applauding himself for remembering how to get to where he lives, at least he got one thing right today.

He turned the car off and put the keys in his pocket and got out before opening the back door. Percy was about to wake the kids up when Annabeth advised that they should probably carry them inside.

So Percy unbuckled Luke's seat belt along with Zoe's before picking Luke up and taking him inside the house and towards where he thought his bedroom might be, hoping that the room he walked up to would be.

Percy opened the door and saw a green color scheme making him sigh in relief knowing it was Luke's room, who loved green to no end.

He walked into the room carrying the sleeping child before laying him down on his bed and taking off his shoes before tucking him in his bed before walking out closing the door and going back outside to get Zoe.

When he went out he saw the door was closed and Zoe wasn't there. He went to open the car door but found it locked making him know Annabeth had most likely taken her inside if the car door had been locked.

Percy went back inside and went back to the hallway which Luke's room was in before looking around to see where Zoe's room was.

He opened a door and saw Annabeth kissing Zoe's forehead, "Goodnight my love." she whispered before rising form her knees to full stature and walking towards the door looking back at her daughter before closing the door her back to Percy.

She turned around and was met face to face with Percy making her smile.

"I was gonna get her." Percy whispered and Annabeth rolled her eyes.

"What? You think I couldn't carry her?" she asked a little smirk playing on her lips making Percy sigh.

"No, I know you can do it. I was just trying to be nice." He looked down and Annabeth let out a little breath before giving Percy a hug.

Percy held his breath for a moment an she pulled away giving him a warm smile before she grabbed his hand and led him into their bedroom and Percy's heart started pounding in a weird way and he started to get real nervous.

"Just lay down, I'll be back in a moment." she said and Percy nodded slowly before she smiled and left him alone in their room.

Holy cowabunga, what is going to happen? Percy started to internally hyperventilate. 

After a few seconds Percy calmed himself down and changed into his PJ's before hopping bed under the covers hiding his face under his pillow.

"I got it." He heard her whisper from outside the bedroom.

He wasn't ready for this, he totally wasn't ready for this, he's only been here one day. ONE DAY!

He laid his head on the pillow instead of covering it right before she came in with-...

Chocolate covered strawberries?

Annabeth closed the door before walking in and handing him the plate and looking at him strangely. "You ok? You look like you just saw a ghost."

Percy swallowed and sat up. "Yeah- yeah I'm fine."

Annabeth nodded and grabbed her Pj's before changing and hopping in bed with him as Percy sighed with relief.

"I've been saving these, but I couldn't wait anymore soooo." She said as she grabbed one.

Percy let out a half chuckle as she bit into the the red strawberry that as covered in luscious dark chocolate by the looks of it.

Percy smiled and grabbed one and popped it into his mouth after peeling the green leaves off of the top of it

"So, why have you been so out of it lately/" Annabeth asked glancing over at Percy who's mouth was full of strawberries.

Percy swallowed and looked at the ceiling, "It's just been today ok?" Percy defended and they both laughed a little bit before Annabeth told them to be quiet since the kids were asleep.

"Yeah, I guess." she said before wiggling her eyebrows at Percy making him lightly blush.

"Stop." He pushed her shoulder away and they both chuckled before Annabeth took the empty plate that used to have chocolate covered strawberries.

Percy sighed and laid his head down closing his eyes and sighing.

That went a lot better than he thought it would go.
