A/N This took a while, partially due to writer's block and Partially because I was busy, but here it is and I hope you all enjoy it.

Chapter 7

Percy's Point of view

After I thought about it for a little while I eventually decided that I would contact Amber so we could see each other again. I liked her, she was kind, Smart, pretty, and modest. If you're wondering how I contacted her, it turned out that most of the gods have cell phones, It's not like they really have to worry about monsters so they can use them. Now I had one, and I used it to contact her.

After I contacted her we talked quite often and met as often as we could. Obviously, she didn't know what I really am so I couldn't tell her the truth about me, or at least not yet. Besides, I wouldn't normally tell someone this early anyway. I knew that if I did eventually tell her there was no guarantee that she would be able to handle that revelation. I didn't really think about that yet though since I basically just pretended to still be a mortal when I talked to her and spent time with her.

On one occasion Amber Decided she wanted to go to a movie. Since I wasn't going to be super busy that day I agreed to go with her. She'd said that the movie was based on a book she'd read a while ago and although I didn't have the knowledge of what happened in the book the movie sounded interesting enough. On the way into the theater, I held the door open for her. After she walked through she commented, "You're a real gentleman aren't you,"

I just smiled at her slightly amused not quite sure how to reply to that since it's just the way I am. In the end, I said just that. After that, she smiled and commented, "And everyone says chivalry is dead,"

I was mostly just amused by her comments and continued to do other little things like that for her. In the end, I thought that the movie wasn't half bad. I wasn't sure if Amber had the same opinion though since there were a few occasions when she muttered that certain parts of the movie were different than the book. After the movie, we went back to Amber's apartment.

Don't get any ideas, we didn't really do anything more than just talking but it was nice to just spend time together where I didn't have to worry about the other gods, or my training, where I could just be myself. I knew I cared for Amber I just wasn't sure how much. Did I just see her as a friend right now? or was what I felt for her a little more than that? It seemed too soon for my feelings to be anything more than friendship but I still wasn't sure.

I still visit my mom and Tyson when I can but now I also spend as much time with Amber as I can since I really do like her. That along with my training and any meetings that are called as well as my duties as a god mean that I am pretty busy, and sometimes it's hard to fit everything in. Since I'm the god of time though I can usually figure something out, not to mention that a god's consciousness is only ever in the same place when they are in their true form, so technically I could be in more than one place at a time.

Although that would take some getting used to it was also pretty convenient on days where I might not have been able to fit everything in otherwise. I was learning my powers fairly quickly so my training might not have to go on for as long as I originally thought, so I might have more free time sooner than I thought.

Although I seemed to be moving on from Annabeth I still wasn't interested in visiting either of the demigod camps anytime soon. I may have been moving on but I still wasn't interested in seeing Annabeth any sooner than I had to, besides we weren't planning on telling the demigods about me being a god now until the winter solstice. But I was still kind of looking forward to seeing Annabeth's reaction when the time came.
