Chapter 7:

"Death Eaters like dark and creepy things"

Nico POV

Have I ever said that I hate awkward dinner?

I don't like any awkward situation either (who is?), but I personally couldn't stand awkward dinner. It reminds me of that dinner I was forced to be in the Underworld with Persephone and my dad. The dinner was deathly silence, as no one talked. We make some attempts, of course, but they just leaded to more awkwardness, so in the end, we decided to ate in silence. And, as if it's not bad enough, a stupid skeleton decided to made it worst. Yep. She freaking spilled pomegranate juice to my dad's face.

Oh wow. It was an unspoken agreement that no one can ever talked about it in front of our face, especially my dad's.

No awkward dinner (or lunch or breakfast) ever happened after that, to my delight. But then Sirius asked for us to introduce ourselves to the children. It was okay, but then it started. I should start from the beginning, shouldn't I?

Okay, so it starts when Harry and his friends arrived at the kitchen. By then, Percy, Thalia, and I are discussing some things with Bill Weasley.

"No, I think they're here." Said Thalia, pointing to the place. "Death Eaters like dark and creepy things, right? So—"

"Oi!" Sirius shouted from the other side of room, making us four to turned, "Why don't you three introduce yourselves to them?"

Thalia, Percy, and I share meaningful glances. It was bound to happen sometimes anyway, so why not? We shrugged and walked towards them, leaving Bill behind as he scrambling to save the various rolls from previous meeting, him holding our promise to discuss this later.

As we near them, I noticed Sirius has gathered all the children. I took my time to inspect them. There is, of course, Harry Potter who was standing close to Sirius,who give uncomfortable curious glances to the three of us. Behind him are a ginger-bush-haired girl, whom I recognized as Hermione, and 4 Weasley kids we hadn't have the chance to meet. If I correct, then their names are Ron, Fred, George, and Ginny.

"Sirius, no need to yelled," Thalia scolded him. I laughed quietly as I remember this scene looks so much like when Thalia was scolding Percy. Not to forget she looked like a mother. Thalia shot me a dirty look while Percy 'humph'ed like a child he is. The wizards just looked at us confused.

Sirius rolled his eyes, "yes, mom. Now go introduce yourselves. Someone's calling me,"

I scowled unhappily at the idea of him, our newly friend, left us alone with unfamiliar wizards. "No one is—"

"Sirius!" Mrs.Weasley abruptly cut me off. "Get your dog hair here and make yourself useful!"

Sirius, who's openly laugh at our shocked face, waved cheekily before run off. Apparently, helping someone is a better option than dealing with awkward bunch of teenage wizards and demigods. I can't blame him, though. I saw his point.

So, as the awkward people we are, we just stand there for minutes, not knowing what to do. Finally, my ADHD couldn't stand it anymore. Unintentionally, I speak out aloud and clear, "Oh for gods sake! Is anybody going to say something? I don't wanted to stand here doing nothing for the rest of day."

Oh yes, I do have spent too much time with Percy. I was becoming— as Percy called it with his Seaweed Brain —Nicosassy or something like that.

Sigh.

Fortunately, after I say that, the ice break. Thalia, Percy, The Weasley twins, and Ron Weasley laughed. I just smile faintly as I watched them, while the rest looked shock at my outburst or looked blank.

After everyone calm down, I decided to start before the awkwardness set again. "Um, sorry about that. I— I mean, the three of us, have ADHD and Dyslexia."

"Yeah," Percy said, Thalia nodding in confirmation. "My name is Percy Jackson, nice to meet you all."

"Thalia," Thals said curtly without much as smile or nod. That's Thalia for you— always a stone on the outside but pillow on the inside.

Knowing I was next, I introduce myself. "I'm Nico Di Angelo. What's your name?" I asked, even though we perfectly know who they are.

"I'm Hermione Granger. It's nice to meet you lot. Are you from America?" She said in one breath. And, believe me when I said she could be one of Athena's descendant. "Why do you here? Did you hear what the Orde was talking about? Where do you come from?"

She sure is going to ask more questions hadn't Ron Weasley butt in quickly. "Alright. Uh, I'm Ron Weasley. It's nice to meet you,"

"I'm Fred—" one of the Weasley twin said.

"—and I'm George—" the other continue.

"—WEASLEY!" They said in unison.

I changed amused looks with Thals and Perce. Looks like we finally find someone— sometwins? —that could keep up with Travis and Connor Stoll's mischief.

The Weasley girl rolled her eyes, though amusement shows clearly on her face. "I'm Ginny Weasley, nice to meet you."

Percy grinned at her when she looked at him shyly. She blushed red, though Percy was oblivious to it. However, Harry, Ron, and I noticed. Harry glare at my cousin, jealousy in his emerald orbs. Ron raised his eyebrow, amused. While me? Well, I'm almost fall to the floor as I tried to hold back my laughter.

Does someone has a crush at Percy? Oh gods. Just thinking of Annabeth's reaction making me feel bad for the poor girl. Although, if Percy noticed it, I'm sure is going to laugh at his lack skill of girl and his awkwardness.

Thalia nudge me silently, and I cough. Like, real cough. Jeez, she has the strength that could compares Hercules'.

I stand awkwardly when I noticed everyone was staring at me. A faint blush appeared at my face. Percy shook his head and attempt poorly to mask his laughter, while Thalia snort and laugh openly.

"Dinner's ready!" We heard Mrs.Weasley called.

So we walked to the dinner's table, lining not-so-patiently.

The entire time, Harry shot Percy dislike look, while Ron whose seated next to him was oblivious. Hermione, on the other side of Harry, keep giving Harry disapprove look which he either ignore or oblivious to. Ginny was chatting with Tonks and Hermione (when she wasn't giving disapproving look to Harry). The twins were busy by themselves. Thalia was eating, ignoring the rest of the world, while Percy was practically the same. And while all that happens, I just stuff my face with foods.

Hey, don't blame us.

We hadn't have lunch for today.

And it's only 3 plates for each of us, anyway.
