Perfect Little Blue Boy (Percy Jackson)

Chapter Sixty Four

Nico

As confident as I was, I was also fucking terrified. Because he really wasn't expecting me to do that.

"Are you—' at first I'm pretty sure he was going to as if I was serious. But he remember I told him I was asking this in all seriousness. And then he just had this oh my gods moment, I think. "Yeah, of course I'll marry you, Nico!"

Thalia

It was almost 10 when I got the news from Nico that I've been waiting for all day. The news that Percy said yes.

And let me explain that when I got this text, I'm with everyone. Piper, Jason, Frank, Hazel, Leo, Grover, Tyson, and whoever else.

I stopped in my steps when I got the news. Grover had said he had a text from Percy like ten minutes ago but never opened it. It was probably Percy freaking out because he's engaged now.

"Thalia," Leo remarked. "You good?"

I nodded my head and told Grover to open up his messages from Percy. Read them.

"Okay," Grover remarked and read them out loud to us. "I know you said you wanted to know how tonight went. We had a lot of fun, went to an aquarium and to a rock climbing place before dinner. The lake was beautiful but I almost had a heart attack."

Everyone shared a confused look.

"A heart attack?" Will questioned. "Why?"

I nudged Leo.

Grover scrolled down.

"We were walking along Canal Park," Grover read from Percy. "It was nice outside, and I've heard it's pretty so we figured why not walk around before going home. And we stopped in front of the lake, no reason really. But he got serious and I got worried and long story short, dude, I'm getting married and you're my best man."

So, of course, everyone freaked out and basically went balls to the walls. And Leo looked at me.

"What?" I asked him.

"You lying little shit." He remarked.

Bianca walked over and questioned why I was a little shit.

"It's a long story." I assured the daughter of Hades.

Tyler

Micah and I had been hanging out with a few others when we got the news. Home for the summer. We thought Percy or Nico would come home. But we haven't heard anything yet. Bianca was home. And they didn't even tell us. It was a post on Facebook of a bunch of photos. A photoshoot.

For an engagement.

"Oh my..." I remarked, and that alone had everyone's attention.

"What?" Bree asked, because we had been talking about Percy and Nico.

"Percy and Nico."

"Did they break up?" Micah questioned, still not over Percy.

"Not exactly..." I remarked and saw my favorite photo. A cameo. Nico was the one who proposed. Which... That surprised me. I thought Percy would be the one to propose. "They uh... They're gonna get married."

Patrick and Clarisse were with us, yes. And apparently, Percy hasn't told them yet. Paige was here, too.

Clarisse literally spit out her drink.

"I feel betrayed." Clarisse remarked. "They didn't even bother to tell us."

Time to call Percy.
