Annabeth Tries to Swim Home (Hazel)

                                    

                                          
["I'd finally... about Grover]
"Thanks for being worried about me Perce," Grover said.
"You don't need to thank me for that, G-man. I'm your best friend, of course I'm going to worry about you," I told him, pulling him into a side hug.
[I couldn't... a hammock]
"You get seasick too?" Hazel asked, looking up from her reading.
"Not as much now, but I used to," Annabeth said. 
[I watched... the shore]
"You might want to avoid that area," Hephaestus said.
"We did," I said.
"Wait, why do you need to avoid it?" my mom asked, concerned.
"It's one of my forges," Hephaestus explained.
"I see," my mom said.
["One of... What happened?"]
Thalia, Annabeth, Luke, and Grover all winced.
"You had to ask," Thalia said.
"He deserved to know," Annabeth told her.
[It was... I asked]
"I'm pretty sure there are Cyclopes everywhere," Jason said.
"How do you know?" Thalia asked.
"Common sense," Jason said after a few seconds of hesitation.
"Hmm," Thalia said, but she let it go.
["You wouldn't... stay forever'."]
"No wonder you don't like Cyclopes," Paul said.
"Yeah. I'm OK with Cyclopes like Tyson now, but I'm still very wary," Annabeth said.
"Same," Thalia and Grover said.
[I shivered... brave, Annabeth."]
"He's right, dear. That was very brave of you to do, especially since you were seven at the time," my mom said.
"Thank you, Sally," Annabeth said with a small smile.
[She shook... another Cyclops?]
"I think you would. Especially if it was to save a loved one," Annabeth told me.
"Thanks, Annabeth," I told her, kissing the top of her head.
[I didn't... that coffin]
"Don't!" my dad exclaimed.
"I didn't," I told him, before mumbling under my breath, "Not yet, anyway."
[I uncapped... sure why]
"Dude! How many times do you dream about me?" Thalia asked, lightly kicking me.
"If I'm remembering correctly, this is the last time," I told her.
"Probably because you met her shortly after this," Annabeth said.
"Maybe. Who knows," I said.
"At least you were more accurate this time," Thalia said.
"True," I said chuckling slightly.
["Well?"... and run]
"How did you get that shield?" my mom asked.
"It's a long story," Thalia said, looking at Luke.
[The girl... the box]
"Deja vu right there," I muttered softly.
