Percy Jackson, Cousin of Black

~III~

Golden trio? Nah, I rather be part of the diamond duo!

HARRY

The twins pushed forward as soon as those words left Percy's mouth.
"I'm George."
"And I'm Fred."
"And we are the Weasley Twins." They chanted together. Percy smiled at them.
"Nice to meet you Fred and George," looking at the correct twin when he said their names, "I think we'll get along just fine."
Ron's mouth fell open. "Bloody Hell, you just recognized them, you're bloody brilliant."
Percy scratched his neck again. He seems to be doing that a lot.
"Ron Weasley." Percy shook his hand.

"Hermione Granger, I'm a muggle born." Percy's eyes seemed to glass over when Hermione introduced herself. He shook himself out of it and smiled at her.
"Nice to meet you, Hermione. I love your name, Greek isn't it?"
Hermione blushed and nodded.

"Hi! My name is Ginny Weasley, the sister of these red-headed idiots and I must say, you're not quite what I expected from Sally's and Paul's son."
Percy laughed and shook her hand.
"Pleasure, and I'm Paul's stepson actually. My dad's lost at sea. It's wonderful how you can stand up against your brothers and make your own persona."
"Thank you, someone has to protect them you know." They both smiled at each other.

Seeing Percy meeting Tonks was absolutely amazing, he loved her transformations and her small jokes. He seemed ages younger but Hermione asked if he had a girlfriend. His eyes hardened and he looked towards a wall. He hesitated to answer the question.
"We broke up a few days ago. She did some things that I can't forgive her for, even though I saw it coming." His voice was cold and we sat there awkwardly waiting for someone to break the silence.
"Well, Tell me about your summer camp Percy, after all, I missed a bit while I was away huh." Sirius saved us. Percy grinned at Sirius.
"You won't believe how much exactly. So I started there when I was twelve. It's really ausomne, we have survival classes and fun activities. There are also rivaling camps, each time we cross paths we hold a competition, kind of like the Olympics. Then some summers, we make trips over the world. Like we went to Alaska and Italy before. It's like a second home to me." Percy's eyes lit up when he spoke about his camp. Sally winked at her son while he gave her a grin.

"Oh, Merlin's beard, look at the time. Children up to bed you go, tomorrow, we will get up early to go to Diagon Ally. We need to show Percy everything."
We all protested silently while we walked upstairs. Percy was the only one that seemed happy to go to bed. He seems exhausted.

Sirius brought his nefew to a room. They spoke a bit before Sirius went downstairs and Percy closed his door. I went into Ron's and my room.

"What do you think about Percy, Ron?" I ask him, wondering if I'm the only one who thinks Percy accepted the Wizarding world really quick. Ron lay down on his back, his head facing the ceiling.
"Don't know mate, we'll see. He seems like a cool bloke."

I frowned. "You don't think he is suspicious?"
"Nah, I suppose it was strange that he accepted this world as quick as he did but he was dead tired, maybe he didn't want to start drama. He seems fine Harry, you just got to warm up on him." Ron spoke. I pondered over his answer a little. I turned towards Ron to say something but he was already snoring. I grinned and lay down myself.
"We'll see if he's a good person tomorrow."

That morning I stood up with a smile, were going to Diagon Ally, that meant I would go to Hogwarts, Home, soon enough. I littarly tried to jump out of bed, but I fell halfway and stumbled on the ground. Ron woke up and yawned.
"In Merlin's beard, Harry, why are you up so early?" He looked at me like I was some stranger. "And why are lying on the ground?

"Oh," I stood up and brushed of some dust. "I tried to jump out of bed. Don't try to do it. And.." Before I could finish my sentence, Molly chanted that she finished breakfast.
Ron was outside the room before one could say Quiddich.
When I arrived in the kitchen, everybody was there except Percy.
"Where is Percy?" I asked while I took a cookie.
Right then he entered the room. He was wearing a purple sweatpants and an orange t-shirt. He looked like he went out.
