This is when the twins will be born but from Luke's point of view. Let's not forget he's only 5 years old.

Luke's POV:

I looked at my dad who was whooping in excitement. My mom had tears of happiness in her eyes. And I, had no idea what was happening. 

"Uncle Will, do I have a brother?" I asked my uncle. 

"No child, not yet. You might." Uncle Will said to me.

"Uncle Will, are you also having a baby? Uncle Nico is very happy." I said to my uncles. They both exchanged a glance. 

"Soon." replied Uncle Nico. 

"I'm bored! Can we go home now?" I asked my parents.

"Annabeth?" my dad asked my mom for confirmation. 

"Let's leave tomorrow. You packed enough things for Luke?" Mommy asked daddy. 

"Of course." Daddy grinned. 

"We're staying at the cottage then." Mommy got up from the bed and daddy helped her. 

"Thanks a lot Will. Sorry again for coming at this time. You know how Percy is, so over-protective." Mommy said to Uncle Will. 

"Well ever since Tartarus-" Daddy stopped. The mood in the room darkened. Fear clouded Uncle Nico and my parents eyes. Mommy started sobbing. 

"Annie it's fine." daddy consoled my mommy. 

"Bob - Damasen.. So many Percy. So many lives lost for us. Silena, Ethan, Zoe, Beckendorf and L-Luke." My mother looked at me. She started sobbing again. 

"So let's make it worth. They died, so we could be happy. So we could be here today, living a happy life." My dad hugged my mom. I saw tears leak from Uncle Nico's eyes. Uncle Will went to Uncle Nico and hugged him tight. 

"You saved many other lives Neeks. Like mine, when I was causing a distraction, running from those roman people. Remember?" Uncle Will said to Uncle Nico, making both of them grin. 

I looked at my parents talking to each other and consoling one another. Both had a lost look in their eyes and they were pretty shaken up. I went to my parents and hugged them both. 

"I'll never leave you mommy. I promise. I am right here with you." I held my mother's hand squeezed it. 

"Oh Luke. You have grown into such a good boy." My mom picked me up and kissed my cheek. I felt her tears on my shoulder. 

My parents thanked Uncle Will once again and we walked to our cottage.

It had two rooms and a small kitchen. A bathroom was attached to the bigger bedroom. There was a small couch facing a television. 

I went to the room and walked over to my bed. I washed my hands (hygiene is very important) and removed my jacket. I was just about to climb into my bed when my dad walked into the room. 

"Hey Luke." he sat on my head and pulled me into his lap. Daddy tickled my tummy and I giggled. 

"Who was I named after dad?" I asked, startling daddy. 

"Well, your mom and I have been through two wars. I can't explain in much detail right now, but you'll understand once you grow up. In one of the wars, we fell into a pit. It contained horrors worse than I can describe. Well, in both the wars, there were many deaths. One of the greatest sacrifices was given by Luke. He had been a friend of Annabeth when they were children. Luke wanted attention from his father but his father couldn't give him that. Luke turned bitter and he raised a bad Titan from the pit. He led the battle of Manhattan. The bad Titan possessed Luke and made him do what Kronos wanted. Luke gained control of his body and killed the bad Titan resulting in Kronos's death. Luke died a hero." My dad looked at me, as if waiting for questions.
