Meeting Percabeth

(Darwin POV – Mortal)

I glanced up at the mirror and doused my face in water.
"Come on honey! We have to go welcome the neighbors!" My mom yelled, as if it was common courtesy to go welcome someone into the neighborhood at 11 PM.
"Coming mom!" I yelled back and rushed down the stairs, nearly tripping on the vacuum a really irresponsible mother had left laying around.
"Mom, is it really okay to go over at this time? Wouldn't they be tired too?" I mumbled, still half-asleep. The water hadn't helped much.
"Darwin, they seemed like pretty active people when I saw them. I doubt they'll be asleep at this time." She said calmly. She then looked down at my chest and reminded me "Put a shirt on, you silly bear."
I sighed and ran back upstairs.
~~ Time Skip ~~

We slowly ma de it over to the house next door, and knocked on the door. After waiting for a good 5 minutes, my mom started getting tired of waiting and gently pressed the doorbell. You could hear a crash from inside the house and a shuffling of feet. A young-looking woman with brown hair opened the door, rubbing her head.

"Can I help you?" She mumbled while rubbing her eyes.

"Oh hello! You must be Sally. We're your new neighbors, Darwin," She said excitedly while pointing at me. "And Carla." She finished.

"May we come in?" My mom intrusively asked, and I shot her a glare.

"Sure…" Sally said as she yawned.

I started taking off my shoes, and I heard a yelp come from my mother. I looked back at her and noticed she had put her hand over her mouth and was pointing at something. I followed her finger and saw a mattress. I stood up to get a better look and saw two people sleeping. A muscular looking guy and a really hot girl.

"Wh-wh-wh-who are th-th-th-th-those?" My mother stuttered. "They ca-ca-ca-cannot possibly be older tha-tha-tha-than 17!".

I hid my face in embarrassment. My mom was a freak when it came to people younger than 21 showing any kind of affection with each other.

Sally looked over at where the two were sleeping, then back at my mother.
"Oh, that's my son, Percy, and his girlfriend, Annabeth." She said awkwardly.

"Is it really necessary that they sleep in the same bed?" My mom asked, regaining her composure.

At this, Sally flinched, as if remembering something painful, and said "Yes, it really is. They have nightmares".
I looked back at where the two were sleeping. Man, what I would do to sleep with a girl that hot.

"Oh, I've heard that one before. Sally, you mustn't fall for their tricks. They probably just say that so that they can do…" My mom hesitated, "Naughty things with each other.".

Just as Sally was about to respond to that, I heard a heart-wrenching scream. My head bolted to where the two were sleeping and saw that Annabeth was screaming her lungs out. I then saw Percy sit up and hug her, whispering soothing things into her ear. Annabeth hugged back and held on to his shirt as if she was hanging on to dear life, screaming "Percy! Percy I cant see you! Percy please come back to me! Don't abandon me!" In between sobs, and Percy telling her "Annabeth, it's okay! We got out, remember? I'm right here, you're all right, okay? I'm right here." While rubbing circles in her back with his hand. She slowly calmed down and fell back to sleep, and Percy turned to where we were standing. He slowly got up, making sure he didn't disturb his girlfriend and walked over to us. He greeted us, and as he shook my hand, I caught a glance of his eyes. They were dark blue, slowly swirling around as if they were made of water, but as I looked deeper into his eyes, I began to see a dark glint to them, as if this man had seen much, much more than anyone should ever see. I felt something run down my cheeks, the hit the ground with a plop. I felt my cheek with my hand, and noticed I had just shed a tear.

"I am so sorry." I said as I grabbed my mom's hand and ran out of the house.

Later, my mom asked me what I had meant by that, and I simply told her it was because we had woken them up, but really, not even I was sure what I had said sorry for.

A/N: Did you like it? I know that there are lots of these on this wonderful website, but everyone has to start somewhere, am I right? Anyways, expect one update every 2 or 3 days, due to my horrible school not giving me too much time to spend writing. I will also be starting a Meeting Caleo fanfic when I've written about 10 chapters of this, so look forward to that! Peace out!
