Annabeth and Piper had been broken up for a while now. The thing is that the annual Chase Christmas family gathering was coming up and Annabeth hadn't told her family (or anyone, for that matter) about the breakup. Her family loved Piper, so how could she just tell them on a holiday? They'd only scold her for messing up something so perfect. So, the only obvious solution is to call Piper up and ask her for a favor. or: pipabeth fake dating au you know how it goes Originally posted on ao3
