Child's Play

Dohohoho Crackfic! YAY! It's about Annabeth and Percy's kid being a brat. My friend and I made it up last night at our sleepover. Her name is Tiana. She's five in the first two chapters, 16 in the last two. Ash 21:56, December 24, 2009 (UTC)

Percy's POV.
There was a warm hand on my shoulder, gently shaking. I stirred but didn't awake. Then there was a cooing. "Daddy? Daddy, I can't sleep." My eyes fluttered open and I saw the small figure of Tiana, her light brown curls and her sea green eyes.

"What? What is it, darling?" I asked, my eyes needing to be held open.

"I can't sleep, daddy." She spoke softly.

"Have you tried?"

"Yes, daddy."

"Go to bed, Tia." Annabeth murmured.

"I can't sleep, mummy!" Tiana shrieked.

Annabeth and I shared a wince. I turned back to Tiana and sat up.

"You know, you can sleep here for a half-hour if you want." I offered the child. I could feel Annabeth glaring at me but I ignored her.

Tiana crawled in beside me and in moments she was asleep. Annabeth told me to take her back to her room. I protested, saying that I would just wake her up if I touched her. Annabeth gave me the 'why are we married?' look.

"Take her. She's kicking me." Annabeth grumbled, rolling over.

"As you wish, Lady Annabeth." I retorted.

Gently, I lifted her. Her green eyes fluttered open to look at me. "Why'd you wake me, daddy?" She murmured, voice thick with sleep.

"Because you needed to be put back in your own bed, sweetheart." I put her in her Disney Princess's blanket and kissed her forehead.

When I got back to the bedroom, Annabeth was sitting upright, looking at me. She gave me the 'you get the couch' look. I stole the top blanket, the warm comforter. I really hope this didn't mean a divorce.
