When I got home, I avoided my family, hoping I wouldn't get any visions from them and went straight down to my bedroom and laid down on my bed and looked up at the ceiling. "What the fuck am I supposed to now?" I asked myself as I sat up. I heard my phone ring and my door opened so I didn't look down at my phone and saw Bianca walk in and sit down next to me. "How's it going little bro?" Bianca asked me and I thought for a second, "It's going great." I told her, which surprised her since I never say anything's great. "Why is everything suddenly so great?" Bianca asked me, curious. I looked down, blushing, "I'm dating Will." I mumbled to her. "Sorry, what did you say?" Bianca asked me.

"I'm dating Will." I told her and she squealed. "Called it!" She yelled to me, "I called it! I called it! I called it! Thalia's going to have to give me so much money!" I shoved her, "You betted on me? You got to be kidding me!" Shit, I touched Bianca.

"Will x Nico? Anyone?" Bianca asked looking at Thalia and Rachel. "I think Jason x Nico." Thalia told them and both of them looked at Rachel who shrugged, "I'm not betting on anyone but didn't Jason just get here?" "That doesn't mean anything on the case of love." Thalia told her. Thalia looked at Bianca. "I bet 20 dollars on Nico and Jason getting together." "25." Bianca told her. "30." "35." "45." "50." Thalia and Bianca shook on 50.

I snapped out of the whatever you want to call it and looked at Bianca. "Looks like you get the 50 dollars then." Bianca just looked at me. "What?" I asked her. "I didn't tell you that I was going to get 50 dollars." I looked confused, "You didn't?" Bianca shook her head. Shit. "I uhhh, lucky guess?" Bianca shook her head, "Nope, you're never that lucky." I gasped and put a hand over my chest, acting offended. "That's just rude!" "Well, it's true. Now how did you know it was 50 dollars? I swear I didn't tell you the amount." I got up off the bed and ran upstairs and Bianca followed closely behind and when I ran outside, I bumped into someone. We both fell down and before I could see who it was, I had a flashback/vision.

"PERSEUS!" It was Percy. His Dad was yelling at him but I couldn't really hear what it was about because it seem either he zoned it out or he was thinking about something entirely different than what his Dad was yelling at him about. His Dad hit him causing Percy to snap back into reality. "You're not my real Father." Percy told him, "You're only taking care of me because MY family died in the fire YOU caused! You were the one who 'claimed' to be a relative of mine!" The man looked at Percy. "I am your Father whether you like it or not you little brat! Your sister should have been the one to survive the fire and not you!" Percy's eyes darkened and he tried throwing a punch but the man stopped it before it reached him.

"Don't even try!" He flipped Percy onto the ground and dug his knees into Percy's back and he cried out. "You're so weak you pathetic little nothing." The man dug his knee more into Percy's back, "And get yourself back onto the soccer team! You need a scholarship so I don't have to fucking pay for your collage!" The man got up off of Percy. "I tried, Gabe!" Gabe glared at Percy, "Well, try harder!" Gabe punched Percy in the face, making him have a black eyes.

The vision stopped and when I shot back into reality, I felt something warm dripping down my nose and I wiped away blood. I looked up, and there I saw Percy. I got up and I remember what I saw and it looked like the fight Percy had with Gabe was very recent since Percy had a black eye. "What are you looking at, freak!" Percy pushed me and I fell back onto the ground. Seems like he waited until I snapped back in reality so he could do that. "Nico, are you okay? Seem like you just zoned out there for a second." I nodded, "Yeah. I'm fine." Percy had walked off by then and I looked in the direction he went, "But I don't think he is." Bianca looked at me confused, "What do you mean by that?" I decided not to answer her and walk back inside the house.
