Background of my Baby

Sally

"How's my son?"

My brother smiled proudly at me,"He's great. He and Vaisey just adopted another child."

I nodded contently, relaxing against my husband,"Tell me more, Sirius."

He raised an eyebrow at me,"About your grandchildren or child?"

I gave him a look,"I want to know about my grand-babies, Si."

He shook his head at the old nickname, relaxing as well,"Their first child they adopted was a boy around the age of twelve from Uruguay. Then they took in another boy, this time from Greenland, he was nine. Their second youngest is a four-year-old girl from Thailand. Now they have another girl from the Philippines. She's a baby, about six months old."

I hummed, feeling mixed emotions. I wished I could meet them, but I don't want them dead. It's not like I couldn't wait though, so I'll just have to practice patience. A knock at the door drew my attention, forcing me to leave my family. When I opened it, Percy's deceased friends stood at the doorway.

I gave them a bright smile,"Come in, children. I have someone I want you to meet."

"Is it Percy's boyfriend?"

"Did he die?"

"No, we just saw him!"

"Wait, is it Percy?"

I smiled at their antics, leading them all to the living room. Sirius stood up to greet them, a confused expression coming across his face. Paul grinned at the kids, he loved having them over. They reminded him of Percy, and they told him all their adventures. My crazy husband wanted to learn to spar like them, and I'd often catch him practicing with a sword. Shaking my head, I started gesturing to the kids and my brother, introducing them.

"These are Percy's friends: Jason, Piper, Hazel, Frank, Leo, Annabeth, Luke, Silena, Charles, and Reyna. There were others, but they either chose rebirth or are still alive. Children, this is my brother, Sirius."

"Are you serious?" Leo snickered.

I gave him a sharp, but amused look,"Reyna, dear, would you mind?"

"Not at all, Mrs. Blofis." She replied, before proceeding to whack her boyfriend across the head.

Everyone chuckled at the two, Hazel stepping forward to shake Sirius' hand,"Nice to meet you, Sir."

"To you as well, my dear." My brother replied properly.

"Here, lets all sit down and get comfortable while we all discuss." I ushered them.

They all smiled at me, finding a way to sit next to their lover, either on the furniture or the floor. They didn't sit on top of each other though, recognizing the appropriate response to the situation. We were all here to get to know my son's life now.

"Do you know Percy?" Frank suddenly blurted out.

A teasing grin overtook my brother's face,"Of course I do. He's my nephew after all."

Jason shrugged unsurely, but still supporting his blushing friend,"Well, we never heard him talk about you when we were alive, so..."

A somber mood took over, Paul speaking up,"Young man, there's no need to be rude. Those times were not the times to be conversing about family. You had the world to save!"

The boy rubbed the back of his neck sheepishly,"I'm sorry, Mr. Black. What I meant was—"

Sirius cut him off,"Its okay, I know what you meant. I didn't know Percy when you were alive. I think he knew about me, but I didn't know him or where his mother was. When he came to live with me was when I was first introduced to him."
