Detroit: Meet Percy Jackson *Complete*

Chapter 20: Meeting Bryan

December 26, 2038

Waking up cuddled to Markus was certainly a way to deal with a hangover, at least, when Markus wasn't moving to get out of the bed.

Groaning, Percy wrapped an arm around Markus' waste and dragged him closer to him, trapping him into bed as he buried his face into Markus' shoulder.

"I need to get out, Percy," Markus said amused, a smile on his face that was obvious in his tone

"No," Percy mumbled with a small pout forming on his face. His head starting to pound behind his eyelids and the darkness of his face pressed against Markus' shoulder blocked the light.

"I'll be right back, promise," Markus said softly, his hand shifting through Percy's hair and making his boyfriend melt into the bed.

Percy sighed and felt tension released from his shoulders. Grumbling, he moved his arm from Markus' waste and moved his head to bury it into his pillow instead.

Quietly, Markus shifted from the bed and toward the bathroom where he grabbed something for Percy's headache and a glass of water.

Returning, he noticed that Percy hadn't moved at all but was obviously in some hangover pain as there was tension in his shoulder and his head was being pressed into the pillow in an attempt to stop the pain.

"Here, it'll take some time but this will help," Markus said softly, making sure to not speak too loud to cause more pain to Percy then needed.

"Thanks, Love," Percy mumbled as he lifted his head, flinched, but grabbed the water and the medication offered.

Easily drowning the pill and water, Percy shoved his face back into his pillow.

"I'm going to make some breakfast for you, why don't you try to take a shower with the lights either off or dim?" Markus suggested, his hand carding through Percy's hair again.

Percy sighed. "I probably should," he contemplated he he turned from the bed to glance at Markus' face.

"Though, it would be much more enjoyable if you joined me," he tone was joking though as he reached out for one of Markus' hand.

"Maybe when you don't have a hangover," Markus replied with a small grin.

Leaning over, he kissed Percy and pulled away before Percy got any ideas and tried to pull him back into bed. "Shower, then kitchen for your food. Will you be joining me at New Jericho to pick up Estelle?"

Percy hummed and seemed to just bask in the lazy morning they were having (even if there was a dull thud behind his eyes). "I suppose we'll see how I'm feeling after breakfast. But I'll probably pick her up today instead of having Lucas drop her off later," Percy said as he leaned up to give his boyfriend another kiss before moving for the bathroom.

"I'll make some eggs, bacon, and do you want one or two pancakes?" Markus asked.

"Two, we didn't eat much last night so I'm kinda starving," Percy joked as he walked into the bathroom, dimming the lights so he could see but not blind himself.

Markus nodded and started the breakfast as the shower started in the other room

"What's on your agenda today?" Percy asked curiously as they walked into a meeting room where Simon, Josh, North, Lucas, Connor, and surprisingly Hank were.

"Well, I have a meeting with some of the androids around, but I know that not this week, but next the President wants to schedule a meeting together to discuss laws that we will need to be placed. The physical meeting might not be this month or most of early January, with how things are going now. But we will schedule communication before then and try to get some basic rights in so that any negative contact humans may show us can have them arrested. So we can actually leave New Jericho without fearing for our lives, the only ones that really leave are under your employment."
