A New Home

Percys pov

I wake up to a knock at my door "Percy dinner is done" "K mom" I hear her walk away and I take in my surroundings, My arms are wrapped around annabeths waist, shes asleep, my thrat hurts like hell, and is probably bruised by now, I untangle myself from annabeth and go to the bathroom then I head out grab food and head back into my room. I set the food down for annabeth, im probably not gonna be able to eat with my throat hurting so bad. I shake annabeth and she wakes up "I got you food" she looks at the plate "What about you" I shake my head "My throat hurts to much" her eyes fill with concern "Ill be fine just please eat" she goes to the bathroom real quick and sits on the bed beside me, then she grabs the plate and slowly eats "How long has this been going on?" I look down and bareky audible say "About 3 years" she immidiatly looks at me "Percy im-" her voice breaks "You cant do anything about it, dont be sorry" she eats a bite "Is your mom trying to do something" I nod "Both of us have been but whatever it is it never seems to work" she eats for a while longer "Come live with me" I look at her in disbelief "W-what?" "You and your mom come live with me we can leave tonight when hes asleep" I feel my eyes water "You would do that?" she nods "I have to try to help out my friend" I hug her tightly "Thank you" I hear my voice break, she puts her food on the end table and hugs me tightly, I feel a tear fall down my cheek and it stays this way for a whie till I pull away "Im gonna bring her back here and talk to her K?" she nods he opens his door slightly "Mom can I talk to you?" "Yea give me a sec hon!" A few minutes later his mom comes in here and her eyes widen "How long has she-" "Ill explain just listen and keep your voice low so Gabe doesnt hear" she raise an eyebrow "Okay" I explain when I brought her here this morning and she heard the arguing and what her idea was. My mom looks like she'll break into tears "You'll do that?" annabeth nods. Mom hugs her tightly "Percy pack up your most valuable thing we are leaving tonight" I smile and hug annabeth once mom leaves "Thank you so much" "No problem"

Annabeths pov

Once both of the Jacksons stop hugging me to death Sally leaves to try to pack a couple things, I help percy "Get the pictures Ill get some clohes" I start taking down the pictures trying to be careful with them as we pack I ask the question "Have you always had a grey streak in your hair?" he laughs "You saw the picture didnt you?" I nod "Yep, and its still faded in your hair" he laughs again "You are way to observent" I nod "I try" he points in the bathroom "Get anything that looks like ill need it" I go in grab toothbrush, toothpaste, his brush and leave, "There should be a ring in there please find it" I search through the drawers and find a black ring I hand it to him and he slips it on his left hand middle finger "Thanks" he grabs a picture off of his desk and grabs an extra pair of shoes "Im gonna take this to the car keep packing stuff please, and keep the door locked if some one knocks on it slip through the window no matter if its my mom" I nod, he slips through the window and is back in about 10 minutes I have packed a bag of the rest of his clothes some more things it looks like he cares about and put it on his bag, "i think thats everythimg you might want to check" he goes through te room and puts a couple more things in the bag, "there "He slips back through the window and someone knocks on the door, I go out of the window, and go down a flight of stairs just to make sure no one sees me, in a couple of minutes percy comes up, "Someone knocked?" I nod he comes up and has me trail behind he enters his window and I stay there for a minute, then he signals for me to come in. I enter the room  as he exits it, probably to make sure that his mom is done, he comes in the room with 2 bags of his moms things and his mom enters behind him "gabe is asleep, lets go" we all go through percys window and down to his car, Im driving since ik where it his percy let his mom be in the passengers seat and im in the back "Mom did you grab the other pair of car keys" she shakes her head "Gabe is paying for that car, we cant take it" he nods "Okay, annabeth go"

We pull into my parking lot and unload the things, Percy said he would take the couch, his mom has the guest room and im of course in my room, I gave them a small tour of the house and told them not to enter my dad room, and they can settle in till they can find a place of their own. I go up to my room and call my dad and explain whats going on, he agrees to let them stay but only till they can live on their own comfortably, I thank him and go down to tell percy and his mom, His mom I think is in her mom and percy is scrolling through tv channels "My dad said you can stay till you guys can live on your own comfortably" he smiles and looks at me "Really?" I nod and he hugs me "Thank you" I nod "Anytime, now ill get something for your throat" he nods as I head upstairs to my bathroom, I go into the medicine cabinet, and grab some throat medicine. Then head back down stairs "Idk if itll work but its throat medicine" he shrugs "Worth a try" he puts it in the little cup thing and drinks it makes a face and I hand him water, he drinks it "I dont think medicine company's know what strawberry tastes like" I laugh "I can agree on that" he yawns "You can finish unpacking tomorrow, just get some rest" he nods and lays down "Thank you, again" "Anytime Percy" I head up to my room, shower, get dressed, wash and moisturize my face, brush my teeth and hair then, get in bed. Soon enough im asleep.
