King of Zacron [Percy Jackson Fanfic]

File 27: Ananbeth's date night

| Third Person POV |

They arrived in the dining pavilion, startling the others. Willow had fallen asleep in Tartarus's arms. "Everyone, go back to Chaos's castle. Your rooms are the same," Thomas instructed.

"Yes sir," they left leaving the Primordials, Olympians, minor gods, Thomas, Vivian and Willow who was asleep in Tartarus's arms. "Thomas! What ar-," Chiron was cut off by their looks. Willow stirred a bit before staying still again.

"Don't wake her up," Thomas said softly. Chiron nodded his head and asked, this time softer, "What are you doing here? Not being rude of course,"

"Zacron is well protected now. We just need to help protect camp half blood and Camp Jupiter," Thomas said. He turned towards the Primordials, "Take half of the successors to Camp Jupiter," Nyx, Erebus, Gaia, Eros, Aether and Ourea nodded their head and flashed away.

Thomas walked away with Vivian holding his arm. "You allow him to command you?" Annabeth asked the remaining Primordials curiously. They nodded their heads. "He's our king and leader. Why wouldn't we?" Hemera said.

Ever since she found out that Thomas was Percy, she had tried to break them up as not noticeable as possible. She was devastated. She lost her chance, but when she attended their wedding, she realized that if he was happy, she's happy.

Thomas and Vivian forgave her. She was still one of Percy's best friend. They had spent an entire day together as friends playing and catching up. Her chance was over with him, but she was okay with it.

Besides, she has her eyes on someone else now. William Jones. He's a son of Hermes. Blue eyes and golden brown hair. He was friendly to everybody but was a total prankster too.

She admired him from a far. She did not dare go up to him because well, she used to be a total jerk and cheater. Everyone had thought of her as a total asshole. She sighed as she thought, He'll never want to date me.

A hand was placed on her shoulder. She turned around and faced Thomas. "Oh, hi Seaweed brain," he sat down beside her and looked at where she was looking. He smirked and nudged her. "What?" Annabeth asked.

"You-," he pointed at her, "like Jones," Thomas pointed at the son of Hermes. He wiggles his eyebrows at her. She blushed red core and tried to hide it.

"W-What are y-you talking about?!" She stuttered out. Thomas chuckled at her reaction.

"Annie, I know you better than most people. Come on," he pulled her up while she protested. She tried pulling away but to no avail. "It's either you ask him out or I'm gonna call him here. The former or latter," he told her and she grumbled.

"You got to speak up wise girl," she said it again but it was still soft.

"What?" This time he heard it but he did it on purpose.

"FORMER!" she shouted pulling his hand towards Jones. She stood in front of him, closing her eyes and asked, "Will you go out with me?" Without waiting for an answer, she ran out of the dining pavilion. Thomas chuckled and looked at the confused son of Hermes.

"Annie likes you but doesn't dare ask you so I gave her two options. Either she asked you or you ask her," Thomas explained. William chuckled and smiled, "I would love to go out on a date with Annabeth," Thomas smiled at him and went to find his friend.

She was at the beach rocking back and fourth chewing her nails. "Wise girl!" She turned around and ran to him. "What did he say? If he said no, you're as good as dead Jackson," she threatened him.

Thomas chuckled and placed both his hands on her shoulders. "He said yes,"

Ananbeth's eyes lit up and she hugged him tightly. "Thank you," she whispered to him. He smile and hugged her back.

"The date's tonight by the way," she widened her eyes and smacked Thomas's shoulders. "Why didn't you tell me earlier?" She shrieked. Thomas laughed and pulled her to Chaos' castle.

"Girls!" He shouted when he pushed opened the door. Said people were startled and glared at the king of Zacron.

"You people have to help Annie here get ready for her date," he said and pointed to Annabeth. She waved shyly. Celeste squealed and was the first to jump up.

"Come on then!" The successor of Eros pulled the minor goddess to her room. The others followed. "You're amazing," Vivian said and kissed Thomas. He smiled into the kiss and deepened it but she pulled away and gave him the look. He pouted and she rolled her eyes.

"I'll see you tonight," she gave him one last peck before leaving to Celeste's room. Thomas chuckled and left Chaos palace.

"She's ready!"

The boys turned their heads including the girl's date. Annabeth was wearing an off shoulder white shirt with laces and a jean skirt. She was wearing a simple necklace. An owl which was made of diamonds hand at the bottom. She wore little make up which made her pretty.

Or so William thought.

He was stunned. He forgot how to speak temporarily. The girls giggled and pushed her towards him. "Hi," she said and blushed.

He blushed in return and mentally slapped himself. "Y-You look b-beautiful," Annabeth smiled and a red colour tinted her cheeks again. "Thanks, you clean up nicely too," the guys at the back smacked their foreheads while the girls chuckled.

William put out an arm, "Shall we?" She nodded her head and took his arm. He led her to where he had planned their date.

The boys met with the girls and they shook their heads with the same thought in their minds.

They're both hopeless.

William led Annabeth to a picnic area looking directly at the sunset. It was the best view in camp half blood. She loved it. He pulled her down and in front of them was a basket full of her favourite snacks. Brownies, sandwiches, etc.

"This is wonderful," she whispered but he heard it. William smiled in satisfaction. He sat down beside her. They were sitting shoulder to shoulder. William loved the way she smiled. The way her hair sparkled under the sun light. He had a crush on her ever since she broke up with Percy.

But he didn't have the courage to ask her out. She was the most popular girl in camp but now, she was tossed aside. And William didn't mind. Neither did she. As long as there is people caring for her, she is contented. She turned to him and hugged him.

"Thank you," she whispered to him. He hugged her back and they had their date feeling nervous but mostly happy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Another date two days from now?" William asked. She nodded her head and kissed his cheek.

"Night Liam," and she closed the door leaving a shocked and stunned Jones.

He touched his cheek gingerly as if it would fade away soon. He smiled at the nickname she had given him. Liam. He skipped back to his cabin never feeling more excited.

For this chapter, I was focusing more on Annabeth. She needed a life too right? So almost every chapter will be in Third Person POV. I have shipped her with a Son of Hermes that I created. William Jones. Liam for short (according to Annabeth). The others forgave him so they're cool. I'm sorry if the chapter is short. Until next chapter then!
Yours sincerely,
