Chapter 5

Annabeth

Percy and I swam back to the surface quickly because if we didn't I would've lost oxygen. When we got there, Percy held my hand and I was completely dry. I responded by kissing him softly.

"thanks." I whispered.

"no problem. Come on, we probably missed dinner. But there's always the campfire." Percy was right, the sun was almost gone and we haven't gone to dinner.

"shoot. You're right. Come on." I said.

"I'm right sometimes." I grinned, we were about to walk to the mess hall when I heard a 'pop'. I turned around. Since Percy and I were holding hands, he spun around with me.

In front of me was a goddess that would probably kill Percy. She is the only smart goddess I know. Yeah you guessed it. It was Athena.

"mom? What are you doing here?" I asked.

She ignored my question and asked me one of her own. "what do you think?"

"erm, I don't know." I lied. I do know why she's here. She's here to tell me off why I've been dating her enemy's son.

"don't lie to me Annabeth. You know why I'm here. I'm here because you've been dating that sea spawn." She pointed directly at Percy.

"that sea spawn has a name. His name is Percy." I said.

"oh I don't care." She shrugged. "You're supposed to be smart Annabeth, and you have not pick the wisest decisions."

"mom, I think I can pick my own choice. This is my life and you can't change my mind." I said firmly. Still holding hands, I nearly forgot Percy's appearance. I squeezed his hands gently. Athena saw us holding hands and glared at Percy her I-will-kill-you-slowly-and-painfully look. I glared back at her.

"look what you've done to my Annabeth. She has made wrong decisions that I will never accept. I will kill you son of Poseidon!" she shouted. As she said the name 'Poseidon' there was another rather familiar 'pop'.

"Athena, you will not kill my son." It was Poseidon, holding his almighty trident in his right hand.

"dad." Percy said. "please, can you let Lady Athena speak her words first.?"

"yes Poseidon, let me speak." Athena said.

"son, this is not necessary. Athena will not kill you or turn you into something else. You understand?" Poseidon ignored Athena.

"yes, but just let Lady Athena say whatever she came here for." Percy replied.

"fine." Poseidon grumbled and sat down in the corner. "now, talk Athena. So I can speak."

"okay, now that I have calmed myself down. I will talk as gently as I can." She said. "Annabeth, I'm sorry for yelling at you. Any you too Percy."

I can't believe it. Mom just said Percy's name. And she just said sorry to him. Athena looked at me like she seemed to sense what I was thinking.

"don't expect more Annabeth. I will only do, when Percy proves that he loves you and not leave you."

"uhm, sorry to interrupt but, did you Lady Athena, goddess of Wisdom and battle strategies, Poseidon's enemy, just said sorry to me, Percy Jackson, the son of Poseidon?" of course. Percy just have to ruin it all.

"indeed I did. Annabeth's totally right. You do have seaweed for brains. Didn't you just heard what I said?" Athena asked.

"well, yeah, I'm just shocked." Percy replied.

"anyway, back to the point why I came here. I'm sorry for yelling at both of you. I was just mad. I wasn't mad. I was angry. It's just that, there's a lot of boys out there Annabeth, and you chose Percy." Mom said. "if you're happy, then I'm happy. I truly respect your choices."

"thank you mom. For understanding my feelings." I said, looking up at her.

Poseidon spoke, "quite a speech there Athena. Now, it's my turn to speak. Annabeth, you know I have grown quite fond of you. And you also know that I don't have anything against you and Percy except that your mother is Athena. But oh well, we'll deal about that later." he continued, "the only thing that matters is that you, Percy, take very well care of Annabeth. I too, respect your choices but, if you hurt Annabeth, I will be very disappointed and I cannot stop Athena from her wrath. That, I cannot promise." Poseidon, at last, finished his speech. He took a large breath through his nose and out through his mouth.

"thank you dad for everything." Percy replied. "I guess I'm thanking you Lady Athena for accepting me to be your daughter's boyfriend. It really means a lot to me. And I promise you, I will not, never in my life, hurt Annabeth. She means the world to me. I hope you understand that. Thank you again."

"thank you Lord Poseidon. I pretty much knew that you would accept me. But I have to hear it in person." I smiled and I saw him grin. His smile is much alike like Percy's but in a different way. He walked closer to us and hugged me.

"I know, I accepted you since the first time I saw you. I know that Percy and you will grow quite close together. You're like a daughter to me no Annabeth." Poseidon whispered.

I hugged him back. "thank you, you know that you're like a second father to me too." I grinned. I saw my mom looking at us with wide us. Then, she looked at Poseidon, there was something in her eyes that I don't quite understand. It was either surprised or joy.

I smiled. Poseidon let go of me and I hugged my mom and whispered, "thanks mom. You know I love you."

Athena let go of me and Percy walked beside me.

"please know that we really are grateful of you two agreeing of our relationship." Percy said.

"well, I'm fine with it for now. But I promise you Perseus, if you ever hurt my Annabeth, then you're screwed." Athena said, and walked over to us and hugged Percy. I was shocked. I smiled at the two of them. Mom whispered something in Percy's ear, I didn't quite hear it.

"you're my daughter now Annabeth, please be careful." Poseidon whispered.

Both Poseidon and Athena let go of us and zapped themselves back to Olympus.

"well, that was interesting." I heard Percy mutter. "I can't believe your mom just hugged me. I mean, me, she hugged my and approved of our relationship! You don't know how happy I am right now."

I laughed and hugged him. "don't speak too soon Percy. She might change her mind."

"don't jinx it! Annabeth, I love you." Percy whispered, and kissed me softly. I kissed him back just as softly as he did.

"I love you too." I said when I pulled away. "come on, campfire has already started. I'm hungry and I'm feeling tired." I grabbed his hand and tugged him along with me.
