Are We There Yet?

Sorry this chapter took so long to publish. I had a bit of writers block. Anyway back to the story!!!

      Percy's noises in the back made Annabeth worry...a lot. He groaned and said a few words like, Annabeth, stupid cyclops, Gaea, destroy and death. The most surprising one was when he screamed, it was really loud and because of it a cop had to investigate our car. "I'm sorry sir...he has nightmares a lot." I said. "I see then, so where are you kids going?" The cop, Officer Benson, asked. "We're going to Boston to see my cousins. This is my boyfriend Percy and my friend Leo." I explained. "I see. Well be careful, don't get stranded." Benson said. "Yes sir!" Leo said.
      We got back on the road and a few minutes later Percy woke up mumbling, "Are we there yet?" We started laughing and he looked at us confused. "What? Whats so funny?" We kepy laughing, "because you're acting like a child on a family trip." He looked at us confused. He shrugged and stretched his arms. "So then how much longer till we get there?" He asked. "Well we've travelled across half the state already. Right now we're in Tennessee." I explained. "Wait so how long was I asleep then?" Percy asked. "Almost a week." Leo said. "We thought it was weird but we figured that since you were sick you hadn't slept very well."

      Dang, I was asleep for a week. "Did I miss any inportant conversations?" I asked. "No we were quiet most of the way here." Leo said. "Oh, I see." I mumbled. Like they said on the way nobody talked. Annabeth only talked to ask me if I was okay, thats it. I got really bored with nothing to do. "I'm bored! Can I drive please?" I whined. "Sorry seaweed brain but because of your sickness and random pain we don't want you to drive." Annabeth apologized. "Sorry dude." Leo pitched in.
      "Hmph!" I uh, hmphed? (Note: Honestly I didn't really know what to write for that...) I scrunched down and pouted. Annabeth started laughing, success operation lighten the mood...Complete! "You're such a kid seaweed brain!" Annabeth laughed. Leo was laughing too, you know making everything awkward. I tried to keep Annabeth laughing by asking, "Are we there yet?" Every 5 minutes, it worked perfectly. Leo kept making it awkward (Note: Just so you know...I am not hating on Leo! I jusy wanted to have that awkward third wheel moments. Thank you!). I thought the ride would be a peaceful car ride with us all laughing, nope I jinxed us, the moment I hoped that something jumped on top of Festus.
