The Godly Avenger (Under HEAVY revision)

Leisure Day

Percy's P.O.V

I woke up in my battle gear. I sat up groggily and looked around. The sun was beaming throught the window and it took me a minute to adjust. I heard the shower running in the bathroom and saw black clothes scattered around the room. I got up and made my way to the bathroom. I couldnt see for a minute because of the steam but someone poked their head out. I could faintly make out a mop of red hair.

"Look who's up" Natasha said

I laughed. I willed my armor off and slid off my boots and pants.

"Can I join?" I raised my eyebrow

"Sure. But no funny business. Im sore right now." She said

I stepped into the shower letting the water wet me.

"My back please." She said

I got the soap and slowly lathered her back in circles. She moaned and I smiled.

"Percy I have a question."

"Shoot." I focused on her shoulders

"What happened when you were in that war? How'd you get those scars? And the tattoos?"

"Well the tattoos, the one on my arm I got form the camp I went to when I had amnesia. The one on my back... I got that after we got out of Tartaurus. Im glad its not in English. At least it's small, I'll probably cover it up or so-"

"Percy you dont have to do that. I know she must've meant a lot to you. I would'nt ask you to do that."

I stayed silent.

"The scars?" She asked

I rinsed off her back and sighed.

"Turn around." She said

I hesitated. She just patiently waited. I turned around. I felt her hands run the soap all over. Her fingers traced specific scars. She lingered on one. She ran it down the whole length and I recognized it.

"That I got from a Dracanae." She made a sound and moved on to the next one. This one was one of the smaller ones that took residence on my body.

"I believe that was from an Empousi. And that one was from a hellhound." She traced 3 scars.

"Harpy"

She traced one that I remebered the most. It was in the shape of a crescent moon.

"What's this one?"

"Gaea. She tied me up and made we watch as her minions killed Nico and Annabeth. She had a wicked dagger she just couldnt keep to herself."

"Percy. This may sound weird but I like your scars. They make you look rugged and dangerous." She said. I smiled.

"Did it help cheer you up?" She asked

I turned to her and kissed her nose. "Yes. But I know something else that would work." I whispered. I grabbed her waist and pulled her closer to me.

"Percy. I told you I-" She started

I let go and put my hands up.

"You got it. I surrender. No sex for a day." We waited in silence before bursting out in laughter.

"Yeah. Right." She said. I turned off the shower and stepped out and handed her a towel. I willed myself dry. She pouted and held out her hand. I smiled and willed her dry. I went to touch her hair but she stopped me.

"It will curl easier if I leave it wet. (All girls who read this dont eat me! I have very limited knowledge of  hair. So just let it flow.)
