If We Were a Movie [Thalico Fanfic]

#Awkward [Thalia]

#ThatAwkwardMomentWhenYourDadIsInfronOfYouTogetherWithTheFatherOfYourBoyfriend

Huge drops of sweat and coming out of my body. I am unable to move from the intense shocked feeling of what I just saw. It's like I am frozen by the horror of the people err, I men gods infront of me.

I looked at Nico and he seems to transform into a tomato sooner. I've got to admit it, he looks kinda funny in a cute way when he looses his 'Like a Boss' side and gets nervous. There was a long silence going on. It seems like they are waiting for us to say something first. Wait, why us? I didn't even know they were here in the first place!

To close the extreme feeling of awkwardness, I cleared my throat and started to say something but as usual, I end up saying something stupid.

"Uhm, I   - uh, how's it going yo?"

I looked at Aphrodite and she seems to be stopping herself from laughing hard. Wow, this lady is really a wow. She can keep herself from laughing realy hard. If I was that, I'd be lying on the floor, laughing so hard that it feels like my teeth are gonna fall off.

"Okay, okay. It seems like you were not expecting us, right Nico?" Aphrodite said with one of those convincing smiles of hers that makes you want to stare at her forever. Not that I'm a lesbian or something like that. She's just really, really, really pretty.

"No but I was expecting JUST you" Nico sounding more confident. Darn it, he sounds so hot I feel like I'm going to melt.

"Well yeah, I told you I'll give a surprise so here is it. You and your Princess Thalia's daddy. Surpise!" Aphrodite said jumping and clapping her hands like a five year old kid. If only I had a cellphone, I could take a picture of her right now and post it on YouTube. Surely, it'll reach a million views.

"Hold up! You mean, they have no idea that we were going here?" Dad said with his arms crossed looking straight at me. His eyes are very hard to explain. I don't know if he's happy or angry. I hope it's the brighter one because I could not imagine him being angry especially since he's the god of the sky plus the lightning stuff.

"Actually, yes Father. But that's not my point. What I want is for all of you to talk to. Now, why don't you have tea first while I go get Artemis okay? Bye for now" and then she vanished away leaving us a table with a tea, cups and biscuits. Now what?

"Okay, while my insane daughter is still away, kindly discuss ALL of these to us" Dad said, still with that expression. He didn't even dare to took at those yummy plate of biscuits that Aphrodite left us.

I cleared my throat and started to say something but Nico cut me off. Good, I was tired to do all the explaining.

"Uhm, this is kinda weird and awkward but the point it, Thalia and I like each other. You know, the like-like stuff? Kind of like Percy likes Annabeth and Annabeth likes Per-"

"Okay we get. Were not morons plus I don't want to hear that boy's name" Dad snapped which made Nico back up a little. 

"Sorry uhm, yeah so that's all. That's what's been going on" Nico said giving Dad and Hades a serious look. Aww, he looks so cute when he gets all serious and stuff.

"That's all?" Hades said with no tone of excitement. Now I know how Nico feels when he's around with his father. Clearly, Zeus is much better than him.

"Yes, that is all" Nico said in a hushed tone.

"WHY, THEN WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH US?! WHY DOES APHRODITE NEED US TO BE HERE??! DOES SHE REALIZE WE HAVE SOME BETTER THINGS TO DO?!" Hades said with his eyes turning into a pool of black water.

"Hey, don't talk to my daughter that way" Dad said, trying to defend Aphrodite's part. He cares for her. I wish I could see him to that to me now.

"Well, if she wasn't even-" Hades started to protest

"But I am a huntress!" I screamed which made them turn their heads. That was close. I really don't want them to start a fight again.

"Which is?" They both said in unison. Wait, don't they know about this? Don't they have any idea what are the rules of being a huntress? Seriously?

"Which means she is immortally in the hands of Artemis forever and ever. Falling for someone isn't wrong but going away with them is. And well, we don't know the punishment yet but I bet it's big. So, we need to find a way to break her huntress oath. That she'll be free again.... with me" Nico said softly which made me want to kiss him at this very moment but it would be rude to do it infront of our parents.

Zeus and Hades seems to be thinking real hard. Taking glances at one of us from time to time then to themselves. I thought it was going to take forever but suddenly, Aphrodite showed up, of course carrying Artemis with her. Artemis was really mad. Like, VERY mad. Her hair is everywhere, she has dirt in her face and she seems to have fire in her eyes. I turned my gaze away from her. I don't know how she'll frogive me after this night.

"Well then, let's settle in" Aphrodite said joyfully like the tension around was bothering her. I couldn't blame her though, this was her plan after all and when she plans, she's 99% sure of it.

"There's nothing to be talked about. Thalia, come on. Let's go back" Her voice sounded like a command which made me step foward but luckily Nico grabbed my arm.

"No, Thalia. You'll stay here. Artemis, we need to talk about this. I care about you as a daughter the same as Thalia" Dad said in a convincing voice. Artemis was no match on it because her look didn't change, she still wants to take me home. Back to the world of hunting and hating boys.

"But Father, you know a huntress is not supposed to be with a guy" Artemis protested

"Hey, it's not like were going to marry. Were still kids but we just want freedom" I said in order to defend myself as well. I can't let her choose the things I want. This is my life, not hers.

"Thalia, I thought I trusted you" Artemis sounded dissapointed and sad. I can't believe it. I did not lost only a mentor but also a friend. But, what the thing she is doing is wrong. You can't dictate the heart.

"I'm sorry" was all I could say as I turned my head away. I could feel water in my eyes. I can't take it much longer anymore. Nico might've sensed it becuase he hugged me. It also made Artemis uneasy. What is really with her and boys?

"Very well" that was all her reply but it sounded like a million syringe is being pushed into my skin. I can't believe I'm doing this to her. But a part of me also screams for freedom and that Artemis is very selfish.

"We need to tell the entire council about this. We'll vote out. If more of us would approve your relationship then you two are free to be together. But if lesser with vote you two to be together then I'm sorry. Nothing is more punishable than-" Dad said trying to avoid the last word. It made him uneasy and sad and like he's regretting in saying it but he has no choice.

He gave a deep breath then muttred something which made my bones weak.

"'.................. death"
