-----------Annabeth's POV

I wake up with strong arms wrapped around my waist and someones head burried into my shoulder.

Percy.

I run my fingers through his raven hair, and just watch him sleep. He snores slightly, and I stifle a laugh, so i dont wake him. Then i see that theres some drool hanging out of his mouth.

This time i laugh and cant hold it back.

"Well good morning to you too." he mumbles and pulls me closer to him.

I lean in real close to his ear, and whisper, "You drool in your sleep,"

He open his sea green eyes and looks up at me.

"No," he says flatly, "I don't."

i raise an eyebrow, "How would you know? You can't see yourself,"

"Its called a mirror, Annabeth,"

"Not while youre alseep, kelp brain." i reply.

"But i can cause-"

I cut him off, "How bout i take a picture, yeah?" i grab my phone and snap a quick picture, in which there is drool dripping down his chin and hes sicking out his tounge.

"See, look." i turn it towards him.

"What? I dont," he wipes his chin, "I dont see any! Nothing at all."

"Sure ya don't. Whatever, Im keeping this picture."

"Fine then. Be that way." He crosses his arms and turns the other direction.

"Okay, i will."  I text Thalia.

Percy Jackson is an idiot.

What did he do this time?!? She replies instantly.

Nothin, just drooling. And snoring.

I turn off my phone and set it back on the bedside table, turning to percy. He smiles evilly and tackles me, tickling me until i cant breathe.

"PERCY!" i whisper-scream. "STOP PERCY!"

"nuh uh."

"PLEASE STOP!"

"Hmmm... only if you give me a kiss."

"NO!"

he tickles me more.

"OKAY," i breathe, "okay. Fine."

He stops and looks at me expectantly. I lean in slowly and peck him on the lips.

"You call that a kiss?" he says.

i shrug.

He grabs my shoulders and pulls me close, kissing me hungrily. My hands rest on his chest, while his are on my lower back.

i stop abruptly, "Um, don't we have school today?"

"OH! Yeah, forgot. Wanna skip?" Percy asks.

"I don't know...," i say hesitantly.

"Okay, but we're already," He checks the clock, "two hours late."

"Ummmm, okay. Fine."

"We can skip?!?" he asks excitedly.

"Yup."

He grins and pulls my hand, "Cmon."

"Where are we going, exactly?"

"You'll see."

"Shouldnt i get dressed?"

"Nah, you dont have anything to change into anyway."

"True."

We walk out of the door and Percy screams bye to his mom, and opens the car door for me.

"Thank you, kind sir," i say, and climb in.

"You're welcome, madmame," He bows and then climbs into the drivers seat.

After we pull out of the driveway and onto the main highway, i reach over and turn on the radio.

"You gonna tell me where we're going?"i ask.

"Nope," he says with a cheesy grin on his face.
