What it was like for Poseidon to raise Percy and Toothless

Two years old

Poseidon's POV
  Percy turned two a few months ago. Amphitrite, Triton, my mother, and I took Percy to a zoo for her birthday. My mother talked to me about giving Percy her first Christmas. I thought about it, I remember how happy Percy was to be playing in the snow. Every year, NY puts up a giant Christmas tree on Nov 14. Mom took Percy to see the lighting ceremony, she said Percy lit up with happiness. The good thing is Athena decided to not tell Zeus about Percy because she's grown used to her, even though she says she hates her. I caught her teaching Percy how to talk. Percy helped me put up the Christmas tree, the lights, and ornaments. Triton and the cyclops put up all the garland in and outside the palace, the one with lights. Amphitrite put bows on them. Mom put a white round rug under the tree with an train set, that Hephaestus built, surrounding it. We put a mini white Christmas tree in Percy's room. Aphrodite bought Percy Christmas onesies. We put up stockings, wreaths, and bought some Christmas wrapping paper. Athena advised a Christmas dinner, mom told me Christmas was about family, so I agreed to it. After we wrapped the presents and placed them under the tree, we had to tell Percy not to touch them. Mom had told Percy stories about Santa Claus. After the meeting on the Winter Solstice, all the gods that were invited came over. Artemis brought her huntresses. I should also mention that because of Percy, Aphrodite fell in love with her husband, and broke up with Ares. Something about Percy"accidentally" locking Aphrodite and Hephaestus in a closet. Dionysus brought Ariadne to meet Percy. Percy was asleep at the time, so she didn't get a chance to see her until the day after. When it was Christmas Day, I was woken up by Percy screaming excitedly in her childlike voice. "Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! It's Chwistmas." I checked the clock, it said, 5:49. I grabbed Percy and told her to go back to sleep. I placed her next to me. She struggled until Amphitrite said. "Let's just get up, you know she's not going back to sleep." I reluctantly got up, Percy ran out of the room.
Percy's POV
I ran into brothers room. "Trwiton!" I yelled. "Up, up!" I grabbed his arm and pulled him. "Go away, Percy." I fell onto the floor with a thump, then got back up. I got back up on the bed, snuggled tight with Triton, and said. "But it's Chwistmas." He didn't answer so I pushed him out of the bed and he fell on the floor. He rubbed his head, saying grumpily. "Why'd you do that?" "Because it's Chwistmas. Don't you want to open your pwesents?" "Grandma said it's not about presents, it's about family. But since I'm up, let's go eat." We headed to the dining hall, where the table was filled with breakfast. I sat next to dad, who sits at the head of the table. Triton was right beside me. All of the other gods and goddesses were awake and eating breakfast. I got some French toast with butter on it, eggs, bacon, and orange juice. After I was done, Demeter urged that I eat some cereal. I did so she'd leave me alone. Afterwards, we, as the whole family, made different Christmas cookies and gingerbread houses. We did one of those family Christmas photos, ice skating, built snowmen. Then I threw a snowball at Aphrodite's face. "Who did that?!" She shouted angrily. She looked around and saw me laughing my butt off, so she threw a snowball at me. Which then insinuated a snowball fight, there was laughter in the air. When we got home, we were dirty. Grandma put me in the bubble bath filled with warm water and lavender. I love the smell of lavender. Grandma dressed me in a Winter Wonderland onesie with a hoodie. I ran to my playroom. As I swinged on the swing, I looked next to me and I frowned. Even though my family does play with me, they're adults, it's not as fun. I had watched longingly at the kids with friends as they played the snow, they're the reason a threw a snowball at Aphrodite. Daddy found me on the swing, a frown on my face. He sat next to me on the swing, and asked. "What's wrong, Percy?" "I want fwiends."  "Look, Percy," he sighed. "The gods and goddesses, them finding out about you should be enough. We don't want Zeus to find out about you, the less time you spend in the mortal world, he won't find you. I'm sorry." He hugged me. "C'mon, you'll feel much better after having dinner with your family." He picked me up and brought me to the dining room, where he placed me in my blue high chair. Everyone was there. On the table, there was turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, and pie galore. Cranberry sauce,roast beef, our gingerbread cookies and houses. There were vegetables too. They all drank this thing called wine, I wanted to try some too, but dad wouldn't let me. For dessert, grandma, mom, and auntie Demeter made white chocolate truffles, hot chocolate, peppermint icebox pie, chocolate cheesecake, etc. After we were full and stuffed, we sat by the fire and talked. I got bored because they were either talking about their jobs or each other. I looked to the Christmas tree to see the train still moving around it. I walked over, took it off its tracks, and started playing with it. As I played with it, I heard a small yelp. I looked to see a box with holes in it. I saw a snout peeking out. I walked over to it, I checked the name tag. I read it as best I could. "P. . . E. . . R. . . C. . . Y. Percy!" The present was for me, so I opened it. Inside was a black and light brown puppy, I picked it up. The puppy was a girl and she licked my face. I hugged her, but not tightly. "I see you opened your first present." I looked up to see Artemis with her hands on her hips. "She couldn't bweathe." I said quickly. "The box has holes in it." She picked up the box and showed it to me. "I'm not putting her back in there, if that's what you want." "Well, since Percy opened her present first, it's only fair we start opening them as well." Athena said as she handed me another gift. We all started opening our presents and saying thank you. All of my gifts were homemade, inside the boxes were cards, frames, candles, soaps in different shapes. I made nail polish and a tote bag for Aphrodite, a bookmark for Athena, arrows for Artemis, Apollo, and the huntresses. A wine rack and colored coasters for Dionysus(for when his punishment is over and the coke ), a mosaic birdbath made out of CDs for Grandmother. Flower chandelier for Persephone and Demeter, a flame retardant shirt for Hephaestus(I couldnt think of anything nice to get him.) with a funny quote. I got Hades a mug and shirt that says 'I never asked to be the worlds best uncle but here I am killing it.' I got a mug for Hermès that said 'Dear cousin, thank you for being my cousin. If I had a different cousin, I would punch him in the face and go find you. Love always, your cousin.' And a shirt that says 'This is what a badass mail carrier looks like.' I took dad's fishing pole and had my name engraved on it, for mom a pop up card, and Triton a mug that said he was the bestest brother ever. I made all of the gifts with love. They loved it too, we all had one last bit of hot chocolate by the fire. My eyes started to get droopy, I yawned. "Okay, it's time for bed." Daddy said, picking me up. "No, no, I'm not sleepy." I told him. "Uh huh, sure you are." The last thing I saw was my family by the fire.
