"Come Grandpa, let me introduce to you to my friends." Thalia said excitedly. Grandpa Tommy followed Thalia out of the house and was greeted at the sight of sixteen shapeshifters waiting for Thalia to come out. We all gave Thalia a blank stare when Uncle Tommy wasn't angry.
"Did Uncle Tommy chase you out?" Lyte whispered. I nodded, my face glum.
"Don't worry, Percy. I'll be there for you, no matter what happens, alright?"
"Thanks, Lyte."
Thalia approached Lyte and I, and saw us holding hands. She said, "This is Percy, and Lyte. They are..."
"Best friends," Lyte quickly added, pulling her hand away from me. Uncle Tommy raised an eyebrow, eyeing suspiciously at us but continued to follow Thalia.
"This is Wilson, Jason's best friend." She gestured at the boy who had brown hair, and mischievous brown eyes.
"Guys, introduce yourselves." Thalia said. A girl with goldish-brown hair and lavender eyes said, "Hello Uncle Tommy. I'm Rebecca. This are my friends : Dawn, Jade, Reece, Chloe, Leo, Ametrist, Grover, Annabeth and last but not least, A twin of Travis, Vincent." He nodded.
After introducing to all our friends, she stopped, and said, "My friend here, he's Jason Hall."
"Friend?"
"I...er...." I stuttered, and looked at Jason in the eyes, pleading for help.
"We just met, and now we are....you know....." he waved his hands aimlessly in the air. We covered our hands, stifiling a laugh.
"Thalia, can I talk to you, privately?" Grandpa said gravely. Thalia followed him at a corner out of ear shot.
We then burst out laughing at Jason, whose cheeks were as red as two crimson tomatoes, standing at a corner. His best friend, Wilson Perth, patted him on the back and chuckled, "Well done, my lad. Well done." And went off hugging his stomach, laughing till he stumbled and fell, rolling on the floor laughing.

Grandpa looked at Thalia seriously, and his expression softened.
"I know that you have all grown up, and you need to be more responsible in your life, and I guess you need one man to depend on like your friend over there." He pointed at Jason. Thalia was stunned, loss for words.
That's all? Just like that?
"I thought you were going to scream at me....?" Thalia said, shock. Grandpa Tommy chuckled, looking thirty years younger.
"No no, my child, I didn't mean it that way; I saying if you truly love him, I don't mind for the both of you to start a relationship. After all, you need someone whom you can depend on to protect you and love you. I'm getting old, and I'm finally glad that you found someone to take my place to protect and love you like I do." He paused. "But do you truly love him?"
Thalia nodded her head, and said, "Yes! I do!"
"Good. Now let's go build your camp!" He said.
