Be My Forever- Apollo x reader(fluff)

A/n: So, tbh this probably sucks ass and Apollo might be out of character because I just finished the first Trials of Apollo book around like February so it’s not like fresh in my mind.  But, I tried because I wanna start writing on here more especially since I recently(like this month) graduated high school so I’ll have a lot more time to write freely without having to have a mental breakdown over tests, well at least not till college starts lol.  Anyways, hope you enjoy my writing that literally took me 40 minutes while listening to BTS because I paused like every 5 seconds to sing along.

You waited outside the door of your cabin for your boyfriend who had agreed to meet you fora quick date since it was your 3 year anniversary.  You noticed a familiar blonde mound of hair making its way towards you, and radiating heat from it as hot as the sun.  Yes, your boyfriend was THE god Apollo and even though he was sometimes arrogant to the point of punching him you had grown to love the handsome sun god.  “Hey, babe.” he said, smirking slightly as he walked over to you and instinctively wrapped his arm around your waist and pulled you in.  No matter how long you’ve been dating you can’t get over how handsome the god was as he flashed a radiating smile.  Although, he was at least centuries old he had the appearance of a teen boy around the age of 18.  “So, I was thinking that maybe we could just go for a drive and have a picnic somewhere for our date.” you said, smiling up at him.  “Sounds good to me.”  he said as he kissed your forehead and headed towards a red convertible which you knew was actually his sun chariot.  Getting in the passenger seat you looked over at him and remembered the first time that he had asked you out on a date.  That was the first time you had ever seen the sun god get so nervous which was such a contrast to his usual flare of personality.  Despite his arrogance that most gods seemed to have, he treated you as if you were gonna be the next queen of England, so it was basically like dating a normal teenage boy.  His right hand made his way to your thigh as he looked at the road driving.  Holding his hand, you slowly interlocked your fingers with his as you felt the air rush against your skin with the sun warming your hair.  Your eyes widened as you saw a nice park and you quickly squeezed his hand, “We should go there.  Doesn’t it look beautiful and its not crowded.”  You bounced in your seat slightly like a child as you looked at him with expectant eyes as he smiled widely and replied, “As long as I’m with you.”  You beamed as he got the car into the parking space and practically jumped out the car as soon as he turned the engine off.  Pulling the picnic materials out you laid it out under a tree and sat down.  The food that you had prepared was cute little sandwiches in the shape of hearts along with a couple other heart related snacks.  

As the evening went by you chatted with Apollo about random things and felt like a normal teen girl who didn’t have to fight monsters and go on quests.  “I love this.” you said quietly laying against Apollo’s shoulder, “I love you, Apollo.”  As you said those words you felt tears brimming at the corner of your eyes as you thought about your constant worry when it came to dating a god.  “I...” Apollo was cut off as he noticed a tear streaming down your cheek, “y/n, are you okay?  Is something wrong?”  You shook your head slightly as you looked at his face, “Its just I have this random thought sometimes that you’re gonna get tired of me.  I mean you’re a god you’ve lived centuries, I mean hell you probably looked the same as you do now when my grandpa was born.”  Apollo furrowed his brows and he wiped your cheek, “I mean to me you’re my forever because at the end of the day I’m still human I age but you...y-you don’t.  So, I just wonder when you’ll probably move on to the next best thing and I just want to treasure this.”  Apollo caressed your cheek as he frowned.  “Stop...this is nonsense.  I love you, y/n.” he said as he pulled your chin up to look him in the eyes, “I get scared too, I mean maybe you’ll leave me for a normal guy who doesn’t have a whole cabin full of children.” You giggled as you thought of your friends from the Apollo cabin that if you married Apollo would technically become their stepmother.  “But to me y/n, you’re my now and my forever.  I will always love you no matter what because to me you’re the best thing I could ever have.”  The tears you had been trying to hold started spilling down your cheeks as you leaned in and kissed his soft lips that welcomed yours as if it was home.  “Be my forever, y/n.” he whispered as you nodded and closed the space again as your lips moved in sync.

But imagine if they made the Rick Riordan books into a movie franchise like the Marvel Cinematic Universe that followed the storyline, casted actors that were the right age and the right personality and everything, with end credit scenes hinting at the different mythological worlds and big crossovers and Rick Riordan cameos

The Percy Jackson & the Olympians series would have been 70% funnier if Percy referred to Kronos as “Grandpa”

Okay but that would’ve been a perfect way to get around the whole “names are powerful” thing PJO used/uses to avoid spoilers. Like, the main reason that rule exists is because supposedly saying a thing’s name can invoke their attention and wrath (and because we’re not supposed to know the bad guy’s name so early in the plot). It would’ve been hilarious if Percy just stopped and said, “Alright, can’t call him Kronos? He’s grandpa now.” And they just go the entire series doing that.

“Okay so Beckendorf and I are going to blow up Grandpa’s ship. If we’re lucky, we’ll punch him in the face on the way.”

“Rachel just hit Grandpa in the face with a blue hairbrush.”

“Percy,” Chiron said cautiously, “You really should not underestimate Grandpa, he is the lord of time, you know.”

And the whole time Kronos is just. Furious because nobody is saying his name, and that’s making it a whole lot harder to know what’s actually going on among his enemies.

Bonus points for Percy using it as a way to insult gods without them knowing: “Uncle Z’s a piece of shit.”

Okay, so in my opinion the official art for the pjo series does not really do the characters justice.  Like, in my opinion the fanart and the way that I imagine the characters in my mind look so much better.  I think the only one that looks pretty similar to how I imagine them is probably Thalia. I mean look at the difference.  Like, I’m sorry Rick but you could’ve done better.  So, that I don’t sound like I’m completely shitting on the art I will say that the characters are more human like and they’re not the stereotypical overly beautiful character that you see in books.  I also really like how Rick described Magnus because he is seriously too perfect and he is my baby.
