《Trumpets |Percabeth AU|》Chapter 13-Bad Surprises and Good endings-
Advertisement
Annabeth felt extreme warmth against her and it felt nice. She turned onto her side catching an asleep Percy. She bit her lip. He stayed the night again after the 4am breakfast talk. His chest rose softly as small snores rung out quietly. She gently moved against him more closing her eyes once more at peace
Knock, Knock
Annabeth groaned rubbing her eyes, as Percy shifted around to his back. She slowly got up, wrapping Percy's shirt around her buttoning it with her boxer shorts.
She tiptoed to the door. Looking through her peephole of the her apartment. Annabeth never thought she could say the word 'shit' so many times in one second.
Both set of parents and siblings.
You see, Annabeth came from her mother, Athena and her good ol' dad Frederick, but her mom didn't want to hold a baby in her stomach so they got a surrogate aka her step mother. Then after Annabeth was born her dad fell in love with the surrogate and her mother and father divorced.
To be honest, Getting rid of her father was the best thing Annabeth's mother could've done, she was a multi-million dollar architect now.
Annabeth opened the door halfway. Her step-monsters pushing in fully. Letting her family in.
"Hello Annabeth sorry for the surprise, you just haven't picked up your phone for a couple days." Athena hugged her daughter.
"Well it's not a good time, how bout dinner later?" Annabeth covered herself with a blanket quickly, oh god she hoped Percy didn't wake up.
"Are you doing drugs Annabeth? What is it? Pills, Cocaine?" Her father stood more sternly raising his voice a little.
"No dad I'm not-" Annabeth couldn't finish her sentence before she saw Percy in the door way just in his boxers.
"Annabeth why is there people in here?" He said half awake.

Annabeth swore she saw her almost 45 year old mother bite her lip at the sight of Percy. Gross.
"And who are you?" Athena pointed at Percy.
"Uh." Percy looked at Annabeth for help.
"Mom, Dad, Debra." Annabeth gestured at Percy. "This is Percy. He's my boyfriend, I've been seeing him for a few months."
Percy went pale then smiled calmly. "Uh Hello, if you just give me a moment, I'll come greet you with clothes on. Annabeth can I see you a moment."
Annabeth nodded quickly following him into the bedroom closing the door giving her parents a one minute sign.
Percy quickly grabbed his undershirt from the floor. "You could've told me you had family coming over." He whispered a little bit aggressively. Grabbing his jeans as well shoving his right foot in.
"I didn't know they were coming. I didn't answer one phone call two days ago and they all come charging over thinking I'm doing drugs or something." She explained grabbed a white T-shirt with a stupid logo on it switching shirts.
"I wish I would've met them in a more appropriate environment and attire." He flopped down on the end of the bed.
"I'm so sorry Percy. My family is insane. " She stood in front of him on the bed. She ran a hand through her hair, Jeans in hand. Percy sat up and grabbed Annabeth softly, pulling her closer.
"No it's okay. I get insanity." He looked up at her from her stomach.
Annabeth straddled him, She laughed quietly. "I think my mom was checking you out."
Percy kissed her shoulder. "I'm that hot?"
She smiled and kissed him. "Don't let your ego get too big."
Percy chuckled. "I'm not that narcissistic."

Annabeth and Percy jumped at the knock on the door.
"We're waiting Annabeth!" She heard her dad call out. "You better not be having pre-martial sex!"
Annabeth covered her face turning pink as Percy started to snort. She playfully slapped him and got off, putting on a pair of capris. Percy got up with her heading to The door.
They opened it to find her family on the couch, scowling at the Door.
Annabeth grabbed Percy's hand. Leading him over.
"So this is Percy, he's a musician, and a very good one. His favorite color is blue and his hobbies include anything to do with water and me." Annabeth cleared her throat. "Percy this is my Dad, Fred, My Mom Athena, my step mother Debra, and my monster siblings Bobby and Matthew."
"Nice to meet you in proper attire." He waved, offering his hand out but no one taking it. "Tough crowd." He murmured.
"So this is what you've been doing besides answering your phone?" Athena crossed her arm. "My birthday passed and you didn't come to dinner Annabeth."
Annabeth groaned. "Mom I'm so sorry. It was late and i worked then I went to Percy's venue and-"
"I thought you were dead Annabeth! You never miss family dinner! Even your father came. I cared for you for 18 years and this is how you repay me." Athena gasped.
Annabeth stared at her toes. "I'm sorry."
"We're having a makeup dinner tonight, I expect you to be there. Bring this boy with you if you must. Frederick let's go."
Her dad looked at Annabeth wanting to do something but he knew if he tried, he'd lose everything.
Her family wasn't Insane...her mother was. A few moments and an angry door slam later. Percy let out the first words from the quiet room.
"Huge bitch." He spatted out.
Annabeth smiled a little on that. Fuck she hated her sometimes. Annabeth's smiled faded a little. She always had to repay something to her mother.
Annabeth wiped a tear. "Fuck." She whispered.
"Annabeth-" Percy looked at her before really lifting her head and comforting her. "Hey, you have nothing to give to her. You're 20 years old, a damn good photographer and journalist. You don't have to listen to her insanity."
Annabeth wiped her face. "I know but she just keeps ruining my life and I know if I don't comply with her she'll get rid of everything I love in some way. She's evil Percy."
"She won't do anything to make me leave." Percy kissed her forehead. Pulling her into his chest. "I love you Annabeth."
Percy was taken back a little by those words. He'd never said to anyone but family.
"I love you too Percy."

Child of Dusk
Life can be cruel, especially to those who don't fit in. But what would you do if you were given a second chance? Tim was a nobody during his time on Earth. As a penniless orphan with no friends to speak of, life was tough for him in his little Arizona town in the '90s. He'd utterly lost hope for the future until one day, he was reincarnated as Alvanue, beloved daughter and heir to the Starlit Throne of Silthonduen. Now, Alvanue has everything a princess could ever want: a loving family, loyal comrades and an entire kingdom at her finger tips. But what good is a kingdom when there's a whole world of magic and mystery out there to explore? *** Ok! Disclaimer time. I do edit my own work and I do not have a beta reader, so please feel free to point out any errors or plot holes (politely, of course). Each chapter will be around 4,000 to 6,000 words long and while I was posting every day at the beginning, I think I'll cut that down to once a week for now, excluding bonus chapters! I really don't want to get burned out. I started writing this because I love world building, so this is gonna be heavy on lore. If you're not into that, there's still a ton of character progression and action to look forward to! It's going to be slow at the beginning, but I promise it will pick up eventually. Thanks for checking my story out, I appreciate it a lot!

Escape
Nathaniel has used what money he had to buy a VR cocoon and to pay off the next few months' worth of bills. He has two ways to move forward in life- to find a new job, or to hope that he can make enough money playing Final Escape to feed his meager, human body. He has rolled randomly, as only a fool would do, and finds himself playing a Kobold magus who wields the power of life itself. Hopefully, his role-playing is entertaining enough to generate revenue, because the game is changing his real self... or else, his real self is changing the human-shaped shell he used to wear.
