Hey guys this is my new story! Percy and Annabeth are around 25, and their all mortal, so no monsters, or crazy gods (*cue thunder*)! Here is the full sumary of the story:

Percy Jackson's a successful 25 year old Marine Biologist with a 3 year old son who needs a nanny. What happens when his cousin, Thalia, has a friend, Annabeth Chase: college graduate looking to start her own Architecture company, who's perfect for the job, sets them up? Will she get the job? Or will she get more than she bargained for? Is it for the worse or is it for the best that they fell for each other? Either way there's only one thing standing in their way: Annabeth's boyfriend.

Just so you guys understand I've never been to New York so sorry if I get something's wrong. I'm also making Malcom and Annabeth twins in this story. Sorry if anybody is OOC in this chapter! I hope you guys like it and please leave me some reviews so I know whether or not to continue this story.

Chapter One: The Job Interview (Date)

*Annabeth's POV*

I was walking out of the Johnson Architecture firm (A/N: I just made that name up, so I don't know if this is a real architecture firm.), disappointed that I didn't get the job as an assistant, when my long time best friend and roommate, Thalia Grace, called me.

"Wass Up, Thals?"

"Nothin much, Owl head." I rolled my eyes; she always calls me Owl head when she's got some exciting news for me.

"Spit it out Thalia, what's the exciting new news that you've got to tell that you didn't tell me, yesterday or the day before that, and the day before that…"

"Jeez, someone's in a grump mood today!" Thalia cut me off.

"Yeah, I went to another Architecture firm, to apply for the job as an assistant and I didn't get it. They say that I don't have enough experience!" I told her frustrated.

"Don't worry, Annabeth, you're an amazing architecture! So, you know how you said at the beginning of college that the first job that you would try to get to save up enough money to start your own Architecture firm was a nanny? Since you love little kids?" Thalia told me.

"Yeah, what about it?"

"Well, one of my cousins needs a nanny! And I already suggested you! The Interview is tonight at 8:30 at some coffee shop. I'll tell you which coffee shop it is when I get home. This will be about 5:15."

"What! First of all which one of your cousins is it because I know you have like a hundred of them. And second, how old is the kid?"

"I do not have a hundred cousins; I just have too many to count, since there all over the world! And, the cousin I'm talking about is Percy! Remember, he went to high school with us. The kid is a boy, his name is Adam Matthew Jackson and he's three years old."

"Fine, I'll go. Even if I said no you'd probably force me to go anyways."

"You are right like you always are, my wise friend. I have to go my boss is going to have a fit if I don't get back to work. See you at 5:15."

"Ok, bye. Before I forget, Silena, Juniper, and Clarisse are coming over."

"OK, Bye," with that said Thalia hung up.

After five more minutes of pushing through mobs of people I finally made my way to my apartment building.

I finally got to my apartment after walking up three flights of stairs. When I walked into my apartment the first thing I did was walk straight into my bedroom, changed out of my black pencil dress that had a skinny red belt, took of my black high-heels, and changed into pajama shorts and a white long-sleeved pajama shirt. I was sitting in the kitchen eating some cereal when somebody knocked on the door. I walked over to the door and looked through the peephole to see Clarisse, Silena, and Juniper.

"Hey, guys. How's it been?" I asked as I let them in.

"Great!" Silena replied as she hugged me while walking into the apartment. Silena was a beautiful small petite girl with long black hair that flowed all the way down to her back with soft blue eyes.

"Not too bad," Clarisse grumbled while following Silena into the apartment. Clarisse was big and she is tall as me (which is pretty tall) with stringy brown hair and brown eyes.

"Good, how have you been?" Juniper asked as she gave me a hug and followed Silena and Clarisse into the apartment. Juniper was about the same size as Silena, she has naturally curly amber hair that went down to her shoulders and green eyes.

"What movies did you did you guys bring?" I asked them as I went back into the kitchen to dispose of my cereal.

"'Roommate', 'I Am Number Four', 'Grown-ups', 'Last Song', and 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief'." Clarisse responded from somewhere in the living room. (A/N: I just had to put that in there!)

As I walked into the living room I said, "Thalia gets off work at 5:00 so she should get here about 5:15. It's already 4:50."

"Ok, let's go ahead and get set up."

"Just so you guys know I have to leave at 8:00," I told them.

"Why?" Silena asked.

"You know I've been looking for a job at an Architecture firm, right?" I asked them, they nodded, so I continued, "Well, every job I apply for they say that I don't have enough experience. So, you know that my back up job was to be a nanny, and Thalia's cousin needs a nanny for his three year old son and so he wants to interview me and Thalia's making me go on the interview." I concluded.

"Which one of Thalia's cousin are you talking about?" Juniper asked.

"Percy Jackson," I answered.

"Really?"

"Do you guys know him?" I asked.

"Yeah, I do Chris is one of his friends, he's so annoying!" Clarisse exclaimed.

"You think everybody's annoying!" I said while rolling my eyes, "What about you guys, Juniper and Silena?"

"I actually work for him, well not really him, but Grover and their companies are combined together. And he's not annoying Clarisse, he's very nice and a great boss." Juniper said.

"He went to college with me, Bianca (I think they are cousins), Zoë, and Benkendorf. Benkendorf works for him, and he loves working there." Silena said.

"Thalia's shown me pictures of him but I've never met him, and Thalia said he went to Goode high with us! But, why is it that you guys have met him?" I exclaimed exasperated.

"Because, princess, unlike you we didn't actually spend all of our time with our noses in books!" Clarisse said amused.

"Shut-up. Thalia should be here in a few minutes." I mumbled. Just as I said that the devil herself appeared in the doorway.

"Hey guys! Where's the popcorn? I thought we were having a movie marathon tonight?" She asked us with a confused look on her face.

"We are but I was just telling them how you set me up with a job interview, which I don't even know where it is. And come to find out all of you know him except me." I said annoyed.

"Ha-ha, that's your fault sweetheart! That's what you get for always having your nose in books! And the meeting is going to me at that Starbucks next to the Empire State Building." Thalia said as she made her way to her bed-room.

"Ok, and while your back there can you get the pillows and blankets?" I asked.

"Fine," she replied.

"I'll go make the popcorn," I said while walking into the kitchen. The kitchen wasn't as small as regular apartments, from behind the sink you could see into the living room, across from the sink was the fridge, and there was an island in the middle of the kitchen, behind that was a gas stove, and there was a microwave above the stove, next to the stove was a built in pantry and on the other side of the stove was a counter-height brown table with dark-brown swivel chairs. I walked over to the pantry and pulled out a package of popcorn. By the time I returned to the living room it was totally transformed. The lights were turned off, the drapes were closed, and there were blankets and pillows thrown everywhere.

"Who knew four girls could re-decorate a living room in a matter of minutes," I murmured.

"Which movie are we watching first?" Clarisse asked.

"I say we watch 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief'." Juniper said. Everybody nodded in agreement so I put the DVD into the DVD player. Then I went back to my spot of being in the middle of Thalia and Silena and settled down to have a movie marathon.

Two hours later we were watching the 'Last Song' when Thalia said, "Annabeth don't you think you should be going?"

"Why? It's only 7:30 and the interview doesn't start until 8:30," I asked.

"Well, maybe I forgot to tell you that I told you the wrong time and I just know remembered that the interview really starts at 7:45," Thalia said sheepishly.

"THALIA, I am so going to kill you if I'm late!" I exclaimed. I shot up from my position on the couch and ran into my room going straight into my closet. I threw on some jeans, my sleeveless black scoop shirt, my grey jacket, a necklace with a small key on it, and some satin grey flats with a grey bow on it. I was walking back into the kitchen looking for my bag as I threw my blonde hair in a high ponytail.

"Will you guys still be here when I get back or are you going out to get something to eat?" I asked.

"Yeah, well probably go out and go to some Chinese restaurant, I'll text you where, so when you're done you can come meet us." Thalia said.

"OK, bye," I yelled as I ran out of the apartment.

Luckily the Empire State Building wasn't that far away. As I neared the side of the Empire State Building I saw the Starbucks that Thalia was talking about. I was about to open the door of the coffee shop when I saw a guy that had ink black hair like Thalia's that and had the most beautiful green eyes, he was sitting at one of the outside tables, waiting. He was wearing a blue V-neck t-shirt, jeans, and some grey converse. I could tell immediately that he was Percy Jackson from the pictures Thalia's shown me. I was still analyzing him as I made my way over to him.

"Hey, are you Percy Jackson?" I asked as when I was in front of him.

"The one and only, and I'm going to assume that you are, Annabeth Chase?" He asked in a deep voice.

"Your assumption is correct. Nice to meet you, Percy." I said as I put my arm out for a handshake. He complied and while flashing me a quick grin said, "The pleasure is all mine."

"Ha-ha, very funny. Sorry about being late, your idiot of a cousin told me that the meeting was at 8:30 instead of 7:45." I said apologetically.

He laughed and said, "Well that's Thalia for you!"

"Tell me about it, at least you don't have to live with her 24/7."

"I give you my sympathy," Percy said as he got up from his chair and walked to the door and I followed him.

"Ladies first," he said as he held the door open for me. I rolled my eyes as I walked through the door and walked up to the counter with Percy right behind me.

"What can I get for you?" the clerk asked me.

"I'll have a tall decaf coffee." I replied while handing him some cash.

"What about you, sir?" the clerk asked Percy.

"The same," Percy replied when he handed the clerk some money. The clerk nodded and turned around and started to get to our coffee.

A few minutes later the clerk came back with our drinks, I took a sip of mine and sighed.

"Pick a seat." I said. Percy nodded and made his way to a booth way in the back.

As we sat down I took my jacket off go and placed it by my purse.

"So, first question: What high school did you go to?" Percy asked.

"Apparently, we went to the same high school as Thalia told me, Goode high, am I correct?" I answered.

"I guess we did go to the same high school. Next question: What college did you go to?" He asked.

"I went to the University of Southern California, my family had moved back to California after high school, but I had always loved New York, so I moved back with my twin brother, Malcom." I told him.

"Ahhh, so you're my CFO's famous sister, I've seen you're picture on his desk." Percy told me.

Recognition dawned on my face and I said while smirking, "Ohhh, so you're my brother's boss, he's always talking about how bossy you are,"

"Well, I'm just going to have a little chat with Malcom about talking about me behind my back to his lovely sister! My feelings are truly hurt," he said jokingly.

"No, actually I was just kidding. He really loves his job position and he said that he couldn't have a better boss," I said truthfully.

"Aww, I'll have to thank him for the kind words! Next question: Do you have a criminal record?" He asked.

"Do I look like a girl that with a criminal record?"

"Well…." He trailed off. I punched him in the shoulder and he said, "Ow, that hurt! I'm not going to leave my kid with a lady that has a criminal record that I don't know about. So, instead of hitting me would you please answer the question?

"I take offense to that accusation! And no I don't have a criminal record. Do you? I don't want a boss with a criminal record that I don't know about!" I said mimicking him.

"Well, if you must know, no, I don't have a criminal record. Anyways, I'm the one who's asking the questions and you're supposed to be the one answering them!" He said in a childish voice while I rolled my eyes at him.

"Are you always this childish?" I asked him with amusement in my voice.

"Shut-up, Wisegirl," he said while sticking his tongue out at me.

"Wisegirl, really?" I asked him.

"Yup, it's the perfect nickname for you."

"How?"

"Because you act like a know it all. Next question…." He said. It went on like that for the remainder of the meeting: him asking questions and me answering them, then we would start joking around. We got to know a lot about each other and from what I've learned about him, Juniper was right he sounds like a great guy to work for. By the time the meeting was over I already had a nickname for him: Seaweedbrain.

"Well, I better get going," I said when Thalia texted me the location of the Chinese restaurant they were at.

"Me too," Percy said.

"Wait, Percy, you didn't tell me if I got the job or not!" I exclaimed as he started to slide out of the booth.

"There's one more thing you have to do to see if you get the job," he said.

"And, what is that?" I asked.

"You have to meet my son, to see if he'll get along with you; if my son does then you get the job." He said.

"Ok, sounds fair, lets exchange numbers," I said while I handed over my phone to him.

After we exchanged numbers I stood up and grabbed all of my things and turned to face Percy.

"It was great to meet you Percy, and I hope we can become great friends, even if I don't get the job." I said as I held out my hand for him to shake.

"Likewise, Annabeth. And I do hope we can be great friends, too." He said while shaking my hand.

I was about to hail a taxi outside the Starbucks when I felt a hand grab my wrist.

Panicked, I turned around to see Percy grinning with my jacket in his hand.

"Percy, you nearly gave me a heart attack!" I said while hitting him on the arm.

"Ow, why do you like hitting me so much? I was just being a nice citizen, bring you your jacket." He asked while I just rolled my eyes at him and took my jacket from his hand .

"Thanks, Seaweedbrain. You didn't tell me when you want me to meet your son?" I told him while slipping on my jacket.

"No problem, Wisegirl. And how about tomorrow? I'll text you the time." He said.

"Ok that's great, can't wait till tomorrow." I told him.

"Me too, Wisegirl, me too." He said. He winked at me and walked away leaving me standing there looking at his retreating figure.

I shook myself out of my daze and hailed a taxi. After I gave the address to the driver, I leaned back in my seat and looked out of the window looking at the night sky. As I looked out of my window I thought about my interview, which didn't feel like an interview at all, it felt like I was having a dinner with an old friend, rather than I was having an interview with a complete stranger, well not a complete stranger, but still. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realize that we had arrived at the Chinese restaurant until the driver said, "Miss, we're here."

"Thank you," I said as I paid the fair and climbed out of the taxi and walked into the restaurant.

As soon as I walked into the restaurant I spotted my friends sitting in at a booth in the back (what is it with people with booths in the back?). I walked over to them and sat down, they were all looking in a different direction than the way I came in. So I startled them when I said, "Hey guys, what are you getting to eat?"

They jumped all jumped and turned to look in my direction.

"God, Annabeth, you scared us!" Juniper said.

"Yeah, you even scared me, Chase," Clarisse said.

"So, anyways how did the interview go? Did you get the job?" Thalia asked me.

"It went good. But, no I didn't get the job, yet. Percy wants me to meet his son to see if he likes me and if he likes me then I get the job." I explained.

"Ahhh, Ok, so tell us about the interview." Silena said.

"Fine, but I'm not saying anything until I order." I said while smirking.

"Fine…Waiter, excuse me were ready to order." Silena said stopping a nearby waiter.

After I order my food I began telling them about everything about the interview. By the time the food came I had finished telling them about the interview.

"From the sounds of it, it sounded like you guys were flirting with each other." Silena said as she used her chopsticks to pick up a piece of chicken.

Juniper nodded her head in agreement and said, "Be careful, Annie. You know he's dating Rachel Elizabeth Dare."

"Uhhh, we weren't flirting with each other and besides were both dating different people: Percy's dating Rachel and I'm dating Ethan." I said as I thought about what Juniper had told me. Rachel Elizabeth Dare, the girl who hated me in high school; she was the meanest person ever (well she was to me), she always teased me, and I even tried to be her friend (that didn't work out, apparently), was dating Percy, who I hoped would be my boss. For the rest of the dinner we talked about random things and joked around. By the time we were done eating it was getting late, so we all decided to call it a night. We all hugged each other before we went our separate ways. Thalia and me caught a cab while the others walked towards their apartments together since their apartments were close to here and they lived in the same apartment complex with their boyfriends. The ride home was silent but it was a comfortable silence. When I got home the first thing I did was take a shower. After I got out of the shower I changed into some comfy clothes and climbed into bed.

"Night, Thals," I yelled at Thalia to let her know I was about to go to bed.

"Night, Annie," she replied. I really didn't like that nickname but I didn't mind all of my close friends and my boyfriend calling that.

The last thing I remembered before I drifted off into a dreamless sleep was the image of Percy winking at me before he walked away.
