I woke up in a tent-like room where everything is white and I'm lying on a cot. I looked besides me to find Nico was sleeping on the chair beside me. He looked so cute and peaceful. I pushed myself up so that I am sitting up making the cot squeak a little but it was just enough to make Nico shoot up from his sleeping position. He looked around the room for a bit before his eyes landed on me causing them to get wider. Then he ran outside just to come back dragging Percy and Annabeth's arms into the room. They both smiled at me and Percy sat down on my bed.
"How are you doing?" He asked. He gave me this look like he really cared about my health but the look diapered just as quickly as it had come. I wondered if they knew about my dad.
" I'm fine besides having a huge headache and confused as to what happened." Annabeth handed me some ambrosia, I nodded thanks and I ate in feeling better as the taste of chocolate chip cookies entered my dry mouth. I groaned at how good it tasted getting knowing looks from the 3 other demigods.
"As to what happened, something destroyed the giant and the rest of the army. Everyone says it was Percy but he deny doing anything." Nico said sitting back in the chair he was previously in.
"Seriously? If it wasn't Percy then who....what was it?" I asked catching myself, Percy didn't seem like he noticed my slip up but Nico and Annabeth gave me a suspicious look.
"What was that?" Annabeth asked glaring a little at me.
"What was what?" I asked turning my head to the left a little bit. She gave me an unsure look before giving up.
"Oh! I know who your dad is!" Nico laughed. "Now I see how why you are have so much fun with this." Percy and Annabeth looked at Nico like he was mad then they realized what Nico had said.
"What? Who is it?" Annabeth and Percy shouted at the same time making us smirk at each other.
"Not telling! " He said. I stumbled a little bit when I started getting out of bed, Nico immediately rushed to my side, helped me up, and helped me walk outside despite Annabeth's protests. I felt better after a little bit so I let go and started walking on my own with Nico beside me. After a little bit Annabeth and Percy left us, something about talking to Chiron about the attack. When we got to the forest and stopped, turning to each other.
"How did you find out?" I asked before he could say anything.
"The last thing I saw was a hurricane surround the giant and if it wasn't Percy then it was you since Poseidon would never help out a child of Hades and you passed out right after the giant was killed. Also I saw you fighting the hell hound. Pretty impressive I must say. You could give Percy a run for his money." He said making me blush.
"Thanks but I've heard about Percy. The best sword fighter in the past 100 centuries." I said stuffing my hands in my back pockets.
"I was thinking, how are you so strong with water without any training? Even Percy needed training and is now at the point of making a hurricane." He asked. I started blushing furiously, he then realized what he said and his face turned as red as a tomato.
"Well, when I saw you knocked out I got really angry and just exploded. " I said looking into his eyes. Gods, they looked beautiful. We started to get closer, and closer, till I felt his lips on mine. We stayed like that, kissing, for about what felt like an eternity, till we heard a gasp. We whipped around to find Percy leaning against a tree smiling like the Cheshire cat.
"Finally! Nico's got a girlfriend! " He said smiling causing me and Nico to blush even more. "It's dinner time you love birds! " He said turning around laughing as he headed in the direction of the dining pavilion with Nico and I following while holding each others hands. When we got there everyone started looking at us and whispering.
"Why would a pretty girl like you, like some creep like him. " A guy said to me as we walked in making my anger increase. I heard Nico trying to calm me down but something inside me snapped. No one talks to my friends like that especially my boyfriend. Without even looking at the guy who said that I blasted him with freezing water making him look like a drowned cat.
"Hey! Percy why did you do that? " He asked. I turned around to find a blond haired guy with blue eyes standing right behind me and glaring at Percy.
"I didn't do that, but I was about to. Don't talk about my cousin like that Will! You broke up with him so don't go spreading bad rumors about Nico." Percy said punching him leaving a bruise on his cheek. Wait. Is Nico bi?
"Why not? He is a devil spawn! " He said rubbing his cheek and glaring at all of us. That is it I'm so done with this guy. The wind started swirling around all of us, but then I felt Nico's lips on mine and everything disappeared even my anger. When we broke apart he looked into my eyes and smiled. I smiled back and we walked to his table and sat down. When everyone started talking again I turned to Nico.
"Thank you! " I whispered leaning my head on his shoulder making him smile.
"Anytime! " He said. I looked up to see 4 people plus Percy and Annabeth sit down across from us. There were two boys and two girls. The guy on the very end, with the brown curly hair started to talk first.
"We just came over to introduce ourselves to Nico's new girlfriend! " He said giving me a wink making Nico growl a little. " My name is Leo Valdez, son of Hephaestus! " He said lighting himself on fire scaring me half to death. The really pretty girl next to him rolled her eyes and threw her cup of water on him making him extinguish the flames and pout at her.
"Hello! My name is Piper McLean, daughter of Aphrodite. " She said reaching over to shake my hand which I took with a smile. I looked at the other two, they looked like siblings but with different hair. The guy reached over to shake my hand.
"My name is Jason, son of Zues. Nice to meet you! " He said. So he is my cousin, I thought. I turned to the last person.
"My name is Thalia Grace, daughter of Zues, hunter of Artemis. " She said with a smile.
"Hey everyone my name is Pearl Jackson. " I said smirking as everyone almost fell out of their seats. Nico, Percy and Annabeth started to laugh at their friends faces.
"She is not my sister! Just someone with the same last name." Percy said causing me and Nico to chuckle a little but gaining strange looks from the others. "What did I say? "
"Wow you really are a seaweed brain!" Nico said trying to control his laughter. "I'm amazed Annabeth has not figured it out yet. Pretty slow for a daughter of Athena. " Annabeth looked furious but deep in thought as well.
"Whatever. Pearl I want to see how long you last against me. " Percy said with a smirk.
"Duel? Bring it on! " I said getting up with Percy. Everyone stared at me like I was asking for a death wish.
"Wait! What about dinner? " Nico asked making Leo nod.
"Yeah I'm hungry." He wined making all of us roll our eyes.
"Hi hungry, I'm Pearl." I said making him groan.
"Dad jokes. Really?" He said but we all just ignored him.
"We will eat after. Come on, you want to see me cream Percy, right? " I said running towards the arena with Nico, Jason, Piper, Leo, and Thalia behind me. We got to the arena to see Percy and Annabeth already there kissing.
"All right love birds, let's get this over with." I said smirking while they both blushed. Percy went across from me while the rest went to take their seats in the bleachers.
"All right! Battle till someone yields or is knocked unconscious! No killing or maiming!" Annabeth yelled.
