Percy's P.O.V.
I had collapsed at least three times and Leo had passed out by the time we got to the infirmary.
I was dizzy, had a massive headache, a bruised jaw, and my balls hurt like hell.
I laid in the infirmary with a wet rag across my head, ice on my jaw, and held a big bag of ice on my genitals which I must say is almost as uncomfortable as getting kicked there.
I could vaguely see out the bottom of my rag down my nose to see Annabeth and Alexis talking quietly while tending to Leo.
They seemed to be explaining the situation to one another as they frequently gestured toward me and to the right where Leo must have been laying.
I pulled my rag up slightly to listen in as they moved over so Alexis could tend to Leo.
"And it's not like-" Annabeth was saying
Alexis glanced over me and smiled. And then did that girl thing where she rolls her eyes and gestured toward me with them while still looking at Annabeth.
Crap. I'd been caught.
I quickly released my hold on the rag and let it fall back over my eyes.
"Hey now," Annabeth said as she sat down beside me and laid a hand on my forearm, "How are you feeling?"
"Like shit."
"Well," she said with a small smile, "I'm sorry about that."
"Yep. You should be." I said with a straight face
"Hey, this isn't completely my fault you know." She said defensively
"Annabeth," I said a little loudly pulling the rag off and looking her in the eyes
Her eyes widened. I couldn't tell if it was in fear or anger or any other emotion. I never could tell.
"I know. Chill." I smiled taking her hand "That just means we are even. Sort of."
"Sort of?" She questioned as she yanked her hand away
"Well I was under charmspeak, and you free-willingly kissed one of my best friends so yeah, sort of."
"Um no." She smiled a little like she does when she thinks I'm wrong, "You were also with Alexis, so it's even."
"I know." I said as I grabbed her hand again, "It was obviously Leo's plan." I smiled looking over at him
"And how would you know that?" Annabeth laughed
"Well one, that would be 99% of all the other guys in the world's first plan, to try to impress a girl by using another." I gestured to Alexis who had walked to tend to others, "Two, since when do your plans not work? Three, I don't have a three but there's a still a lot I could probably say and I probably could come up with it if you gave me some time." I smiled.
Annabeth smiled and looked down towards her feet. "Yeah, my plans or at least the ones that are completely mine are never wrong." She smiled
We sat in silence for a little while until I broke it.
"Annabeth?"
"Yes?" She asked
"You know- You know I love you right?"
"Percy... Of course I do."
"Like I always will. No matter what happens. You could've stayed with Leo or whoever else, Luke for goodness sakes and still, none of my feelings would've changed. I still would love you.... Always."
"I love you too Seaweed Brain." She had an even bigger smile on her face and she leaned down towards me
"Wait!" I said
"What?" She smiled and slightly laughed
"Does this mean- Does this mean that your mine again? Like we are together again?" I said calmly
"What do you think?" She smiled leaning in again
"Well," I started
She huffed and started leaning out again.
"Wait! No!" I said smiling and putting my hand up to pull her back in
Our lips almost touched and-
"Wait!" I said again this time with a straight face
"What Percy?!" Annabeth huffed
"Can you Um... You know wash the Leo off your lips? I don't want none of that in my system."
"Oh my gods!!!!" Annabeth huffed and laughed,"Just Shut up and kiss me seaweed brain!"
She grabbed me by the shirt and pulled me into her lips so hard I was sitting upright.
I kissed her back and adjusted myself upright resting my hand on her neck and thumb on her jaw.
I smiled and pulled away.
"That's my girl." I laughed moving a strand of hair from her face
"What do you mean?" she smiled as she put her hands around my neck and looked into my eyes
"You know. My aggressive judo-flipping ass-kicking girl." I smiled and pecked her the lips
"Hey!" She laughed and playfully hit me
"For real though," I laughed as kissed her again, "I really missed you."
"And the same to you." She smiled and kept kissing me
"Hey-uh-uh- Annabeth? This may sound a little rude but can you like get up or like go away?" I said
"Excuse me!?" She said angered
"Woah- Woah- Woah!" Alexis came over "What's wrong now?"
The others entered in hearing Annabeth's frustration.
"Yeah Percy, what'd you do now?" said Piper smiled running and jumping onto Leo's bed knocking all of his ice packs about
"Hey now!" Leo said throwing his hands forward to shield all his ice adjustments and to keep Piper alway, "No more girls who have a boyfriend are allowed to touch me."
Everyone kind of laughed.
"Yeah, I agree." Jason laughed coming up behind Piper and putting his hands on her shoulders
She just laughed.
"I'll second that." I said with a straight face slightly raising my hand
Annabeth continued to look at me.
"So for real, what's up?" Said Nico
"Nothing." I said agitated throwing my hands above my head
"Well obviously something." Piper laughed
Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.
"Trust me." I said, "You all just fixed it."
Annabeth looked at me puzzled and confused. It was funny to see her like that for once.
"Well what WAS wrong?" Alexis asked
"Dear gods! It's fine!" I said adjusting the ice on my balls
Annabeth saw me adjust my ice and cracked a smile. She's a freaking genius.
"Yeah, it's fine. We're fine." Annabeth said to everyone
"Okay then." Piper said with a straight face, rolling her eyes. She grabbed Jason's hand and started to leave. "We'll check on you two later." She said as she pulled Jason out the door
"Where are you two going?" Nico said with a smile
"No where." Piper said with a smile
Everyone laughed at Jason, wide-eyed and oblivious.
"Have fun!!!" Jasmine yelled excitedly
Nico turned and looked at her with an "Are you serious?" face.
Everyone laughed as Piper waved and left with Jason.
"Let's go," Jasmine smiled pulling Nico away too
"You mean?" His eyes widened with a smile
She smiled and pulled him away faster. "No," she laughed, "I want to grab some dessert before they clean up!" She smiled and dragged pitiful Nico out the door who looked back at us miserably.
The whole infirmary filled with Leo's laughter. "Better luck next time Nico!" He managed through his laughter.
I smiled and shook my head and Annabeth laughed and threw her head forward into my chest.
"Alright Percy, give that icing about another 5 minutes and you'll be done." Alexis said coming over
Annabeth looked at me smiling, and pulled my hair up to look at my gash.
"Hey Alexis," she said pointing to it, "I think we might need another stitch I'm here."
"No, Nope." I'm good I said trying to pull my hair back down.
"Ooh, yeah." Alexis said, "My bad, let me go and get my stuff. Leo, why don't you hop up and let me get you some more nectar."
"Why do I have to get up?" He moaned
"Cause you took a cheap shot." She said gesturing to me
"He was gonna kill me!" Leo claimed exasperated
"Yeah, but that doesn't mean you kick him in the balls." Alexis said
"Okay, first off, I kneed him and second, I was gonna die, let me repeat for the ten billionth time." He said following he out back
"Okay," she laughed as they walked away
Annabeth turned to me and smiled.
"So do I need to leave now?"
"Haha." I said, "Just don't touch me." I smiled, "I mean you can any other time but not now."
"You could just told me if your broken self couldn't take it." She smiled
"Uumm... Have you ever had ice on your penis and then gotten a boner at the same time?" I said
She just laughed. "Um- No, because I don't have one."
"I know that." I said
"Yes, you do." She laughed and kissed me
"Oh dear gods Annabeth, Just like 2 more minutes okay." I said grabbing the ice and closing my eyes
"I'm sorry." She said as she got up, "You need anything?"
"I need you to find a way to like not be attractive. Go get Alexis and ask her if my penis will ever work again." I said trying to bare the last minute of the ice
"Yes sir." Annabeth laughed, "I wouldn't want a broken penis."
"Hmm..." I smiled, "So I'm guessing tonight-"
"Bye!" She laughed
"Get some longer shorts or lose that ass!" I yelled as she walked out
She just shook her head still laughing and walked out.
I leaned back and closed my eyes to rest and-
"Ay-oh!!!!" Yelled Leo busting through the door with a wicked smile
"Leo," I opened my eyes, "You look like an absolute idot."
"Well." He said putting his hand to his chest pretending to be offended
"Whose fault is that?"
"Definitely yours."
"Mmk. We'll just call it even."
"Okay." I said closing my eyes again
Alexis walked in with Annabeth and the stitches.
"You can take that ice off Percy."
"Thank every god on Olympus." I threw the ice onto the tray next to me.
"Heh heh!" Leo laughed as they came over to me with the needles and other crap.
I closed my eyes as Alexis threaded in another stitch and started another.
"Hey!" I said trying to move away, "You said one more."
"Well you're getting two." Annabeth said strictly
"Well you're getting two." I mocked her in a high pitched voice
Alexis laughed and stabbed me.
"Dear gods!" I said
"Sorry!"
She quickly finished and snipped and tied everything in place.
"Okay, boys. I think you are ready to go. Leo let me grab you another set of nose plugs and some ambrosia. Don't use it all at one. And you too Percy." She said as she walked back to her supplies and tossed us some baggies of Ambrosia
"And Annabeth, here's some more gauze for Percy. I'm going to cover up his stitches as well."
By the time everyone was ready to go, Chiron trotted into the room with Grover.
Grover came in smiling as big as he ever had.
The four of us sighed miserably and plopped back down into the infirmary beds.
We all knew this was coming. Speech time.
"Well I'm glad to see you too." Grover huffed
"Hey man," I said as he hugged me and kissed Annabeth's cheek and plopped his furry hind beside me
He reached for my empty coke can by my bed and started chomping on it.
"So he can kiss Annabeth and I can't?" Leo questioned, "Not that I wanted to or planned to, I'm just saying."
"Grover's different." I smiled putting my arm around him and Annabeth
"Like how, you all been havin' a threesome or something?" Leo said wickedly
"Um. No." Annabeth said
"Don't lie Annabeth." I said to her jokingly
Grover winked at her and I smiled and shook my head.
"Okay," Chiron said, "Enough all of you. We need to talk."
"I actually need to get back to Juniper...so I'll catch you all later." Grover said inching out the door
"Bye Grover!"
"Goodnight!"
"See you tomorrow!"
"Use protection!" I yelled
"Wait- how do they even-"
"Well they probably-" Leo started
"No Leo. We don't need to know."
"Well I was just saying! They probably-"
"Leo! No!"
"Yeah, you aren't supposed to tell." I informed him between gritted teeth
"Okay! Chill!" He said putting his hands up
"Guys shut up!" Alexis yelled
"You may proceed Chiron." Annabeth smiled
