"Come on, Perce, do I ever make things ready for you?" Nico laughed at the look of annoyance on his cousins face.

Percy snorted, shocking the Torchwood team that Ianto would be so improper. "Of course you never did. But last I checked, I'm older then you and I can still beat your ass back to New York so don't test me Nikki."

The younger demigod scowled at the name, "I hate you so much." He stated simply.

"I swear to Zues, if you start fighting I will get my dagger out. Don't test me Percy Poseidon Jackson." Annabeth growled at her ex boyfriend.

The demigod mentioned quickly putting his hands up, as if blocking himself from Annabeth and inched closer to the Torchwood team. "Um. Anyway, back to explanations." Percy sighed and ran a hand through his hair, messing it up and making it look him look more like his old self.

"Ianto.." Gwen trailed off, "Or uh.. Percy? Can we move this into the hub?"

Percy nodded, agreeing mentally with her that is would be a better idea to do this in private. He watched as Jack silently led them into the hub and sighed, hoping he could fix his relationship with the immortal man.

The looks on the demigods' face when they walked into the hub made Percy smirk and laugh slightly to himself. After everyone took a seat in a circle like structure, the son of Poseidon sighed.

"Okay. So it all really started when I was 12 years old. My math teacher turned out to be a fury." He started but was quickly interrupted.

"Woah. Woah. Your first monster was a fury?" Nico exclaimed shocked.

"Nico, shut up!" Both Percy and Thalia exclaimed loudly. They stared at each other before they laughed and high fived as Nico pouted. 

"12?" Is what Tosh got from the first part.

"Uhm. Yeah, you don't really have a childhood when you're one of us." Annabeth said sadly, picking at a loose string on her shirt, thinking of her dad and half brothers.

Percy frowned and crawled across the circle to Annabeth and wrapped his arm around her to give her comfort. He didn't notice as Jack twitched slightly in jealousy.

"Before we get into the hard stuff.. how about you explain that." Owen suggested, curious on how Ianto went from this cute blonde girl to Jack.

Percy hummed and glanced at his best friend, "Well I hated her at first. She was a know it all daughter of Athena." He teased.

"And he was a seaweed brain son of Poseidon." Annabeth joked back playfully, nudging him with her shoulder.

"But then.. I don't know.. we few closer as the years went by. Then in the war, I'll explain that later, she took a knife that was meant for me. It would hit the one spot that would kill me because at the time, I was invincible." He said softly, he still hated to think of how Annabeth had looked like and how scared he was.

Jack hummed, "Interesting." He muttered bitterly, making Percy frown in hurt.

"Then after, he was offered to be a god. But he turned it down." Thalia laughed, "Everyone thought he was crazy!"

"A god? You were offered to be a god? And you turned it down? Why?" Owen exclaimed in disbelief.

"Because gods can't be with mortals." Percy said simply, his voice becoming soft and quiet, "And I wanted to be with Annabeth." Gwen and Tosh had tears in their eyes as they watched the way Percy and Annabeth interacted.

Jack scowled, the green eyed monster coming to life inside him. Ianto was his and his only!

Annabeth smiled and leaned into Percy, "I thought it was the sweetest thing. We had kissed before but we kissed again on his birthday and got thrown into the lake. y our friends. We remember that day by.." She trailed off, grinning at Percy who laughed before they said together, "The best underwater kiss ever!"

"Oh how fun. I'm happy for you guys." Jack said bitterly, getting up and storming into his office, slamming the door and leaving the rest of the occupants of the room in a shocked silence.
