The visit was not the best, Sally, his mother's boyfriend was at the apartment and instantly it was uncomfortable. "Ah, look if it isn't the little burned misfit." Gabe had said drunkenly, hiding behind Percy not feeling safe near Gabe.

"Cat, head to my room 2nd door to the left I'll be in there in a second." He told me in my ear, "Babe, I'm gonna borrow some clothes, for better comfort." You gripped your arm tighter, walking away and slipping your hand out of his.

Knowing you can trust him you walked away and stripped his room finding a pair of black joggers and a red solid tank you put on staring at your figure in his body mirror. You have a beautiful body but the burn marks have opened causing your body to bleed.

Arguing was all heard around the apartment and heavy footsteps, caused you to back away from the door and fall onto his bed. The door opened fast and slammed shut. Sure you were the daughter of Hades and Persephone but you still had fears. One day you would overcome the fears but that day was clearly not today.

"Cat you okay?" Percy asked, looking at you with fear on your face and you in his clothing made his blush. Walking closer to you seeing your burn marks brighter than usual with some bruising on the areas.

"They were never this bad before were they?" He added as he grabbed bandages. You shook your head, "They've never gotten like this since the first day it happened but the bruising is new.

"Cat if you don't mind- What happens when you walk in? I know he's an ass but this is different, did something happen before today? He took your hand in his wrapping your arms as you both spoke.

You took a deep shaky breath, "About 2 weeks ago when I was over, everything was fine but remember how when they let me leave the orphanage and you and Sally took me in?" He nodded, finishing on your forearm and moving to your other arm. Now we were both crisscrossed in front of each other.

"Come the third night I was here, I couldn't fall asleep so I went to get a drink and he grabbed me up here and down here." You motioned to the locations. This made Percy's blood boil.

He finished wrapping your arm.

Hours go by and you are woken up by Gabe slamming someone against a wall and Sally grabbing your wrist and pulling you from Percy's bed.

"We have to go, hun, right now grab a jacket and meet Percy in the car." You grabbed your bag along with a jacket seeing Grover hit Gabe in his groins with a crutch.

"You bitch, you caused this, I should've destroyed you that night I grabbed you." He yelled grabbing his groin in pain and stumbling over to you but you were pulled towards Percy as he was leaving the building tears were now streaming down your face.

He got in the car pulled you in a hug and locked the back doors as you broke down. He wiped your tears away, "Cat you are okay, I am here he can't hurt you anymore we are not coming back here." He reassured you rubbing his hand on your head.
