Interesting Encounter

Chapter thirty four

Percy

Today was gonna be really awesome. You know, of course I was excited about seeing my mom again, and seeing Bianca, and the baby being born soon, and the amount of cookies my mom was baking, but it was going to be awesome.

And it was going to be so awesome because of how popular I am- even after my random disappearance for a couple months. As I got out of the car, I kid walking on the other side of the street said "Is that Percy Jackson?!" Then nudged there friend and they started whispering.

Someone working in there yard heard them whispering and said "Percy Jackson?" Then looking at there child (I'm assuming) said "Look! It's Percy Jackson!"

Some teenagers hanging out in there attic with the window opened happened to hear. "Wait, Percy Jackson?!" One of them said. "Let me see!" Said another. And a bunch of heads stuck out of the window.

It was funny, because I didn't even do anything. I just walked from the car to my house, literally, just from the car to my house. Nico seemed surprised at the amount of people who noticed me.

"I never knew you where so popular." He whispered to me. "Yeah, I think I got more famous since I left. But the people talking about me right now, that's not even the beginning!" "What are you talking about?" Nico said laughing. "Well, my house is quite a fun house, especially on holidays. We just leave the door opened and kids come in, my friends, my friends friends, my friends friends cousins older sister, all kinds of people. And they all just pile onto the couch- sometimes ten at a time- two per chair, and you can sit on the coffee table if the cookies aren't there, the rest of them just sit on the floor or someones lap." I explained.

Nico stared at me, then said "And... Your mom doesn't care?" "Nope! It only happens a few nights- not usually in a row. But almost always on Fridays. My mom doesn't care in the least, her only rule is- Adults can't intervene in any way shape or form with what the kids are doing."

Nico just laughed saying "Wow, I wish I had a mom like yours!" I ruffled his hair and said "No one, has a mom like mine." Nico laughed again. My mom looked over her shoulder and said "It's true, you know. You should be more grateful, Percy."

We where hanging out in the living room, when Nico's dad Dad, Mom, and Hazel drove up. He could tell Bianca was worried, she tensed and stopped talking. "Hey, Bianca, it'll be okay. I mean, look at me, look at my hair-" Bianca laughed as Nico grabbed a piece of his hair witch was just huge note "Look, and she likes me just fine."

"Ah, Nico, that was simply beautiful!" Reyna said, causing us all to laugh, and just as we where all mid laugh the Di Angelo-Levisque's came in. They seemed slightly uncomfortable, but my mom would make them perfectly comfortable.

And, unsurprisingly, I was correct. "Mr. Di Angelo!" My mom said, hurrying to the door. "My name is Sally, I'm Percy's mom." She said, holding out her hand. He took it, and then she introduced herself to his wife and Hazel.

"Hazel, the kids are in the living room. Why don't you guys come with me to the kitchen? After you say 'hello', of course." Mom said, pointing them toward the living room.

"But, should't we stay in the living room to make sure they don't do something?" Persephone said. My mom just smiled saying "Of course not!" And walked off toward our living room. Persephone and Hades didn't ask anymore questions, just exchanged looks and stared at mom quizzically, before following her into the living room.

How funny, Nico's parents are Persephone and Hades... Hah ha hold on gimme a sec while a laugh at that. Persephone and Hades, oh, what are the odds? Anyway so Hazel, Persephone and Hade- haha omg I'm sorry.
