Mortal meet Demigods
Chapter 1
Jade Phillips
I'm 23 and I work in a small Ice-cream shop, called Caproni's. It's kind of wierd, as they sell some unusual flavours. They sell Cola-cube, Bannoffee, Liquiorice, Peanut-butter you name, but because of this we tend to make a lot of money. You can also suggest your own flavour, we've had a couple of wierd flavour idea's let me tell you that.
"Sour Watermellon flavoured Ice-cream, Millions flavoured Ice-cream, Steak flavoured Ice-cream. I mean who asks for meat flavoured Ice-cream, how stupid is that? These are only some of the more memorable ones. The one request I remember most, takes me back to a day that made me smile a lot.

Flashback
It was a particular warm day in August. In Caproni's despite it being and ice cream shop I was boiling. It was also not busy, even though it was roasting, there was hardly an customers. Only an elderly couple, who took a while to decide, and a family with younger twins who couldn't decide what they wanted and ended up throwing the ice-cream at each other making the shop a mess. I had to clean it up, basically the highlight of my day. I took out the Cd player that was left in the back and put my own personal CD in it. It had artists like Fall out Boy, Imagine Dragons, Panic! at the disco, somekindawonderful, The Killers, Guns and Roses, Queen, ACDC, and many other Awesome bands.
The first song on the CD, was Reverse by Somekindawonderful. I love this song, it's so different and meaningful and it's sung with such a different perspective on things. It's just a masterpiece and the tune is really catchy. I couldn't help but sing along.
I told my story in reverse 'cause it hurts
Girl it hurts too much to bare
But I'm tantalized by their legs and long hair
But if I could do it again
I would do it again!
If I could do it again
I would do it again!
If I could do it again
Probably do it again!
Could I get a do-over?
Baby, ooh oh
Hey! Ooh oh
"Wow great voice."
Someone behind me said clapping.I turned around to find two people who looked like they were in there late teens. There was a boy and a girl.
I blushed in response.
"Thank's but no-one was supposed to hear that." I said blushing probably a good shade of red.
"No seriously your good, and that's reverse by Somekindawonderful right?" The boy face lit up at his question."You know who they are?" I asked with interest.
"Uh duh only one of the greatest bands ever, before Imagine Dragons and Fall out Boy!" The boy exclaimed in delight.
I fell in love right there and then. It wasn't that hard to be honest this boy was very easy looking on the eye.
He had hair that was as black as a raven. His eyes were a mixture of green and blue, with the Green over powering the blue making his eyes look like a wave in the ocean. He also some how smelled of the ocean, with a hint of mint, which smelt amazing, just to let you know. He also had rippling muscles and you could see his abs through his thin, turquoise t-shirt, which looked amazing on him. He also had this look in his eyes, that made me think he's seen to much for his age, the girl had the same look.
The girl had waves of honey, blonde curls, with analytic, storm grey eyes, that made a shiver travel up your spine. She was beautiful, naturally. She had no make-up on, and she definetely didn't need it. She wasn't fat but she wasn't skinny. All the extra skin she did have was muscles, and from what I could tell she had abs as well, which isn't as common for girls.
I could tell they were close as there hands we locked in a tight embrace, as if they never wanted to let go of each other.
My stomach dropped a bit, but I knew I could never really like a guy that much after knowing him for a minute. It was just stupid infatuation.
"So, what would you like?" I asked, with a genuine smile at the young couple.
"Oh, can I have mint choc chip, oh and by the way, my name is Annabeth." The girl said with a smile.
"What size cone?" I asked. her.
"Well this doof is paying so ask him?" Annabeth said while affectionately running her hand through his hair.
I smiled at how cute they were.
"So, what size cone?" I asked the guy.
"Extra large, only the best for my wise-girl, I'm Percy." He said with a loving smile.
Annabeth smiled and leaned down to kiss his cheek.
I smiled at them.
"What about you?" I asked Percy.
"Well.." He said rubbing his neck.
"Do you have any blue ice-cream, with a blue cone, blue sauce and sprinkles?" He asked.
I looked at him in shock. I looked over at Annabeth and saw her rolling her eyes.
"She thought we were normal, Seaweedbrain." She said.
Percy shrugged and said," I like things blue."
I laughed.
"Surprisingly we do." I said with a wide grin aimed at the pair.
Percy's face lit up like a christmas tree.
"Are you joking?" He asked.
"No someone came in and made a request for it." I said.
"Happy birthday, Seaweedbrain." Annabeth said.
"It was you?" Percy asked Annabeth.
Annabeth nodded.
Percy ran up to her and started spinning her around.
"Thank you so much!" He exclaimed while spinning her around and planting a kiss on her lips.
I looked away but couldn't help but inwardly squeal at how cute they were.
While they were kissing (Now making out!) I made their ice-creams.
I placed there ice-creams in the holding tray and lightly coughed.
"Your ice-creams are ready, and by the way I'm Jade" I said.
They both pulled away blushing.
"Sorry." They both said sheepishly.
They picked up their ice-creams, and started handing me money, but I refused.
"Think of it as a birthday present." I said smirking.
They both smiled and to my surprise, they gave me a hug. Like both of them at the same time.
"Thanks Jade." They both said.
They picked up their ice-creams, and turned to say what I thought was going to be Goodbye, but it wasn't and what they said surprised me.
"See you same time next week." They said, before the walked out of the ice-cream shop.
~End of flashback~
Percy and Annabeth, have come to the ice-cream shop at the same time every week, ever since, and it's nearly been half a year. We always make idle chit chat, and talk about amazing musicians, and amazing music. I was loking forward to them coming today, as I was bored and needed someone to talk to.
I decided I wanted some ice-cream myself. So I made myself a large tub of ice-cream with three flavours in it. Mint-choc chip, cookies and cream and one of our most popular flavoured Ice-creams, blueberry delight. I smiled to myself at that one.
I began eating my ice-cream, savouring thr flavour. I had just finished, when I heard a familiar voice.
"The usual please." the voice said.
I turned around and stared at Percy and Annabeth.
"It's about time." I said while smirking.
~Linebreak~
six years later
I am still working at the ice-cream shop and I still have the same customers. Percy and Annabeth still come every week, excpet they now bring someone else. A six year old son named Lucas, and when we find out his favourite flavour is blueberry delight, we all can't help but smile and share a fond memory.
