As we entered her house, Aunt Sally ran up to us and hugged us. She looked around as if looking for someone, " Weren't you supposed to have a protector?"

"Yeah. He went to camp said he's coming back in the morning."

Spoiler alert: We (Percy) ditched him again as we got to the pier.

We went the kitchen and sat down. She pulled out a tray of blue cookies and gave them to us. You see, before, Aunt Sally had an abusive husband who said blue food can't be made. A couple of food colouring later, theory disproved. Now it's all she makes. Mostly for Percy he loves everything blue.

"Soo" I started. "What'd do you think about becoming our fake mom."

Percy elbowed, "I was supposed to ask that."

She spit out her drink. "Your fake mom? Why?"

"Yeah why Percy."

He shrugged, "Why not?"

I blinked, "That is a stupid explanation."

"I have ADHD"

"What does that have to do with anything?!"

He shrugged. "Well Percy Potter is a terrible sounding name. I like Percy Jackson sounds better."

We all laughed.
