"Addie? Actually...updating??" Shut up, yes i am. i'm bored and in a state with my grandma and my mom and they really like to nap. I don't nap. I'll update a lot more (don't hold me to that) while i'm here. Though when i go see my aunt and uncle we'll be doing things every second of everyday. Also, this is perleo, again, percabeth and caleo is a lot better but i was asked to do this. But i also think perleo is really cute enjoy. Human AU + really sad. i'm sorry 😛😛😛

Wiping his tears quickly, he walked through the double doors leading into his school. He put on a fake smile, went to see his friends a little bit. He grabbed his math notebook from his locker, and started freaking out in his head.

He didn't want to get beat. He really really didn't. If he failed this math quiz he would. Well, he got beat most of the time, but at least when he passes quizzes it hurts a bit less.

You can't please Gabe.

This is poor Percy Jackson's fate. Never knowing if he would come home to his smelly stepdad passed out, the stench of beer and whiskey wafting from him, or his mother, Sally, dead. Both are becoming more likely.

He sat in his blue chair. He made sure to get the blue one. He always did. He likes to think of it as a tribute to his mom. Or maybe just a silent plea to any god or gods above. Let her be alive

Percy held his breath but also held tears back. He glanced at a few of his friends in this class.

Piper Mclean, a daughter of a famous actor. She never cared about her grades or looks. She just cared about being happy.

Annabeth chase, a girl smarter than Einstein. She didn't have to care about her grades. She got good ones anyway. Her dad and her step-mom loved her, very very much. Her brothers did too.

And Leo Valdez. He got as good of grades as Percy. Percy didn't know much about his background. Leo didn't talk about it much.

Percy wouldn't admit it to anyone, even himself, that he had a crush on Leo. Since the 6th  grade. Leo was cute. Always laughing. 

Percy stared at the test in front of him. His leg tapped nervously. He barely heard his teacher say he could start. He looked around the room, watching as everyone started, but Leo. Leo was already staring at Percy.

Leo blushed, and looked away quickly.

Leo clicked his pen. Over, and over. He didn't want to go home to his foster family. He never did. They hit him. A lot.

He wondered if he could sneak away and they would notice. He quickly wiped that idea from his head. They always noticed. When they did, he got hit a little harder.

By a little he meant a lot.

He swooped his head down, and did his test while thinking of Perseus Jackson.

They handed their tests in. By this point, Percy was panicking. He couldn't do it anymore.

He ran. Ran to the hallways. Ran to other classrooms. Ran to the bathroom.

He couldn't breathe anymore. His mouth dry, and he felt sick. He was going to throw up. He went to the toilet and puked. He heard someone come in, and he sat on the floor, silently crying. He covered his mouth. He willed himself to not get caught.

He was shaking and sweaty, and felt like he was going to throw up again. Don't. Get. Caught.

He sat, shaking, crying. He heard someone stop outside his door.

They knocked. You got caught

"Percy?"
no- No! No not him, anyone but him. He can't see me like this. He can't se-

"Percy? Can you let me in?" Leo asked. His voice, gentle, soft, calmed Percy. Percy unlocked the door, but didn't pull it open.

Leo pushed it open. He looked taken aback. "What happened?" He asked, his voice starting to shake. He'd never seen Percy so distraught.

"I...fail...ed" Percy hiccuped. Saying it out loud made him cry harder.

Leo grabbed Percy, engulfing him in a hug. "no" he hiccuped again. "Hes- Hes going to hurt me."

Leo's eyes narrowed. "Who?"

"G-gabe" Percy said. His sobs cutting in.

Percy lifted up part of his shirt, where the biggest bruise was. It was purple-ish black.

Leo took a deep breath. He turned around. "Pull up my shirt."

He had an almost identical bruise on the small of his back.

Tears streamed from Percy's eyes, the same way they already were to Leo.

They smiled. Smiled.

Leo smashed his lips onto Percy's. Leo noticed that Percy wasn't kissing back.

"i'm sorry! I just-"

He was caught off by Percy kissing him back.

5 Years Later

Wiping his tears quickly, he walked through the big double doors, leading to the chapel. He put on a real smile, went to go see his fiancé. Leo was already at the front. Smiling. They were 22 now. Percy had proposed May 20th. They were 20.
