The Events of Olympus Resort | A Percy Jackson Fanfiction

Chapter 15

Annabeth POV

I'm sitting at the dining table in my room doing one last comb through of the confidential files when I hear a knock on the door that makes me jump out of my seat. It's about 10:00 at night, so I literally have no idea who it could be. That is, until Thalia opens her mouth, cause once she does that, there's no mistaking that it's her.

"Annabeth Chase open this door right now! There is no way I'm letting you hermit out on me tonight!"

I roll my eyes, smirking. The truth is, I was feeling a bit lonely, and I'm glad I have someone like Thalia to make sure I don't cave in on myself. I begin packing everything up, closing the books I have sprawled out over the table and hiding them all in one of my kitchen drawers. It's for the best that no one else knows what I'm up to.

"Annabeth, hurry up! It's freezing out here!"

I laugh. "Thals we're in Los Angeles in the summertime. It's literally only like 65 degrees out."

"That makes it all the more maddening!" She shouts. "At least New York has a reason for being cold. What's LA's excuse?"

I shove the last of my papers into the drawer and head over to the front door. When I open it, I'm not surprised to see that Thalia is holding an overnight bag.

"Planning on staying over are we?" I ask with a smirk. Thalia just shrugs and moves around me to step into the room. She drops her bag on the floor and heads straight for the fridge.

"You got anything to eat? I'm starving."

"Just some leftovers," I say. "Nothing too exciting."

Thalia pulls out some tupperware with fettuccine alfredo in it. "Oh Ms. Chase how you undermine the gloriousness of fettuccine!"

She begins dumping the pasta into one of my bowls and sticks it in the microwave before turning back to me.

"Annabeth please do not tell me you've been cooped up in here all day."

I quickly blush, thinking back to the day I spent with Percy. "No I went out."

"Good," Thalia says approvingly, though I don't know if she'd feel the same way if she knew that I'd spent the day with her cousin.

The microwave beeps and Thalia pulls out her fettuccine. She grabs a fork and walks over to the couch.

"Come girlie."

I shake my head, but follow her all the same. We have both just gotten comfy on the couch, sprawling blankets over our legs, when all of a sudden, I hear another knock on the door. Before I can say anything though, Thalia shouts, "Door's open!"

I look over at Thalia, confused, but she just shrugs. In through the door walk Hazel and Piper, Reyna bringing up the rear. They all carry overnight bags and are wearing pajama pants and fuzzy socks. It seems like everyone got the memo but me.

I look over at Thalia again, eyebrows raised. "Explain."

She chuckles. "I just thought that this would be the perfect time for a sleepover. It hasn't been just us girls in a while, and I thought it would be a good idea."

"And right you were," Hazel says, dropping her bags and joining Thalia under the blanket.

Reyna puts her stuff down next to Hazel's and walks over, plopping down next to me. "Yeah this is long overdue."

I just laugh. "You guys are ridiculous."

"Yeah but you love it," Piper says, finally joining us and stealing a piece of Thalia's fettuccine.
