Mortals Meet Percabeth

23. Frederick Chase

A/N Last chapter!!! Thank you all for 1.5k reads as of now! Today I will also start a Solangelo one. It will be one-shots though, only because mortals meet is starting to become harder and harder. A lot will be mortals meet though! Thanks again!

I was in my living room with Helen, Bobby, and Matthew. We were watching Tom and Jerry, and the boys were laughing, I was just glad I could spend time with them, unlike I did for Annabeth. Just because I couldn't see her often, and no offense, but didn't want a child at 20 doesn't mean I should've treated her like crap.

Just as Tom grabbed Jerry, the phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and it read unknown. I normally don't pick up unknown calls, but I had a weird feeling in my gut. I pressed accept and was pleasantly surprised.

It was Annabeth! I walked into the other room and asked why she was calling.

"What? Can I not just call to say hi to my dad?" She asked faking hurt.

"No, you can, but you shouldn't use phones," I told her.

"No, this one is monster proof. Anyway, I'm in town with a friend, could we meet up?" She questions sounding hopeful. Of course, I would want to meet up! I want to fix my relationship with my daughter!

"Absolutely! How long are you in town for?" I inquire hoping it's more than just tonight.

"Until Thursday, why don't we do dinner? I would love to see the twins again!" She exclaims.

"Alright, how's here at 6, tomorrow?"

"Perfect! Can I bring my friend though? I want you to meet him."

"Sure! The more the merrier!" We then hung up, so we can save the conversation for tomorrow.

I walk back into the living room and see that the shows over and everyone's looking at me. "What?" I voice wondering about why they're staring at me.

"Why are you so excited?" Bobby asks confused.

"Because. Your sister, Annabeth is coming for dinner tomorrow at 6! She's bringing a friend, too," I say to let everyone know that we will have guests.

"Alright, is she bringing anything?" Helen asks. "Not that she needs to just so I know what to cook," she hastily adds.

"Not that I know of," I reply.

"Alright. We'll have salmon then unless someone is allergic to seafood or something?" She says raising an eyebrow at me. I honestly didn't know the answer. We never had fish for the seven years Annabeth was here.

"I don't know, let me call her again. Did you hear? She got a monster proof phone! We can all talk more now, and boys you can talk to her more!" I say.

"Yay!" The twins shout.

"I'll ask her," I say grabbing my phone.

I take my phone out of my pocket and dial the number that I remember seeing. (994)-272-1665. "Hey, Annabeth! Sorry, I forgot to ask, are there any allergies or eating habits we should know about?" I ask.

"Yeah actually. My friend doesn't eat seafood, sorry about that," she says and I can imagine her rolling her eyes.

"No trouble, thank you, though. See you tomorrow!" I was just about to hang up when I heard her voice one more time.

"Oh! Dad! We'll bring dessert! Don't want Helen to do all the cooking," she tells me happily.

"Great! Bye!"

I hang up and tell Helen. "So, her friend that she's bringing doesn't eat seafood and they're bringing dessert."

"Thanks! We'll have a steak then," she says taking the salmon out for tonight and putting the steak in the fridge.
