"Just going around looking for problems."

I nodded. "Lets do the rest then."

He smiled and I matched my pace with his as he did the same.

"Lets get to the bottom of this."

Everyone's eyes bored into me. Jason's eyes matched Thaila's and Nico's matched Bianca's, though Bianca's were softer. I swallowed and my eyeballs desperately searched for a blank space.
"You- you can bring Percy!"

"Tell us, or we will.... We will tickle you!"

"No."

Piper and Thaila jumped on me and I laughed uncontrollably, my laugh turning to snorts as they kept on tickling me. I gasped, my face red.

"Alright! Alright!"

I sat up and retied my ponytail.

"I never knew that Annabeth could snort."

I glared at Leo. "Shut up."

"Yes mam."

I sighed. "I'm not really sure right now. We divorced, thats right. But I guess were dating."

"You guess?"

".... I don't know."

Luke pulled back. "Guys. Annabeth doesn't know something. THE WORLD IS ENDING!!"

Zoe hit him on the back of his head. "Seeing that you're screaming and alive, I don't think so." she stared at me. "How though? I thought Percy was pretty straightfoward with his feelings."

I shook my head. "He's a good liar now. And he can hide his emotions pretty well." I sighed. "He used to be such a dope."

"I miss idiot Percy." Thaila agreed.

"He still is an idiot." Hazel added.

"But not the same idiot."

"I see you're hiding and discussing what type of idiot I am." Percy said, sitting down next to me.

He glanced at me with his green eyes. "Why didn't you tell me?"

I squirmed under his gaze. "Victor......" I blinked. "Wait... How did you get out?"

"Umm... I sneaked out?"

Leo spread his arms. "Welcome."

Piper hit him with her book. "Idiot."

"Beauty Queen."

"Repair Boy!" she retorted.

"Okay guys-"

"Stay out of this Sparky."

"Fire boy." Jason said.

"Superman!"

Jason shook his head. "I cannot think of any more nicknames."
