New Rome || COMPLETED

Chapter 3

The girl looked like a goddess. She had long, curly blonde hair, tan skin, and muscles. She was beautiful, except, of course, her stormy gray eyes. She'll just have to wear contacts.

Blue, maybe?

Unfortunately, the guy is handsome too. He has raven black hair that's windswept, and sea green eyes. Of course, he's no match for me.

I decide the 'Daisy tactic' wont work on her. She looks... smart. No match for mah genius, duh, but still smart.

I could use the 'straight forward' approach, or the 'wait it out' option. I decide on the latter. Wow, what does that word even mean?

So I say, "Hi! I'm Andy Aarons! Awesome son of Apollo! Your rooms are there!"

These have got to be Eliza and Drake. After all, Percy is clearly best friends with Annabeth, and both are clearly girls.

"Well, he's cheery." Drake mutters to Eliza.

"This place is for demigods. It's not gonna be as bad, Percy." Eliza says.

Wait, what? Percy? Is this guy trans or something?

"You're right, Annabeth." Percy says.

Wait, Annabeth? So I guess they're best friends who like being extremely close to each other. Hmph.

As long as this  Percy dude doesn't interfere with my Annabeth, we're good.

"As long as we're together." Annabeth mutters into Percy's arm.

"As long as we're together." Percy repeats.

Holding each other close, the pair steps into the room.

I see a single queen bed, and where my archery targets and Daisy's garden are, is a bookshelf with a huge desk next to it. On the side where I have the mirror, they have a pair of double doors.

Percy leans over and opens them.

"Annabeth! Look! A swimming pool!" Percy yells.

My eyes widen. What, he gets a swimming pool and I don't?!

No. Just no.

This is unacceptable.

On the wall where I have my tv, is a small closet in addition to the TV.

I wave my hand in front of my face. Ugh, this room is so gloomy! Greys and blues! These designers have no taste!

Percy changes quickly and dives into the pool, and Annabeth sits down to watch national geographics.

Suddenly, a hand made our of water comes out of the swimming pool and grabs Annabeth!  Then it  pulls her under! Oh no, my poor Annabeth!

I'm about to dive after her, even though I can't swim very well, when I actually look in. Annabeth is in Percy's arms, and they're happily splashing around.

Okay, I'll let my girlfriend have some 'alone time' with her best friend. But just this once! Never again!

And, you might say she isn't my girlfriend, but she so is! She loves me! I love her! Boom! Happy couple!

It's that simple!

You know, I think I have some Aphrodite in me.

Thanks for reading!
