Hello, I am very sorry I didn't upload for a really long time, I had my end of term exams and I had to study a lot!
Aiden's POV
Dad and the woman walk towards me, I am nervous, somewhat and excited apparently. "Hey Aiden," "Hi dad!" I try to be enthusiastic, but I practically sound like a chipmunk, "This is Sally, Sally, Aiden," dad says pointing to the woman.
Sally says "Hello!" in the sweetest voice. "Hi!" I reply, sounding a little better. "Let's go to the car and wait for Percy and Thalia." I don't know who those people are, but I decide to just go with it. We make our way to dads car, it's a Toyota Prius. On the roof there are dents like 4 horse hooves, weird!
Dad and I load up the luggage in the back of the car, dad doesn't close it though, "Go sit in the car, you must tired from that flight!" "Ok" then I go sit in the car with Sally. About 5-7 minutes later, the girl who sat next to me in the plane, and the guy who was with Sally and Dad before, come walking towards the car. They are arguing about something, looks like something important by the faces the hold.
I assume the boy is Percy, and the Girl is Thalia. They stop arguing once they reached the car, who I assume was Thalia sits in the car next to me while the guy who I assumed was Percy talks to my father while loading up Thalia's luggage. "This is Thalia, Thalia, Aiden. She is Percy's cousin and will be staying with us for about a week!" "Hi!" "Hey," is what she replies with and she says it so bitterly.
Percy comes in the car next to me, I am sitting in the center, but both of them don't take up much space so I have enough room for my body and legs. "Hi, I'm Percy, you must be Aiden, Paul told me about you," it takes me a bit time to realize that Paul is my father, Percy looks uncomfortable I. The silence so I reply with a high pitches "Hey!". "So which school do we have to go to and when is it starting?"
Percy's POV
Aiden looks like a nice guy, considering the way he talks. "Goode High School, the school where Paul teaches!" "Oh and where do you go to school, Thalia," "non of your business!" I get shocked a little and tilt a little near Percy, "Don't worry, she's like that to every new 'guy', emphasis on guy," He relaxes a little, 'but why only guys, why not girls'. He spits it out before he even thinks about it, she gives him a death glare and hisses at me, if she is supposed to be scaring Aiden, he is scared.
Aiden's POV
To cool it down, probably, Percy asks "So do you think you will miss your old friends or not?" The question bother me because I just broke up with my girlfriend Amelia, but I'm thankful to him for changing the topic, "I don't really know, I will probably miss my best friends Joan and Max, and my girlfriend Amelia," "Did you break up with her? Or are you guys is a long distance relationship?" Percy asks, "I broke up with her cause I don't want to miss her a lot, and plus she doesn't like long distance relationships." I reply in a sad tone, "oh" Percy replies with a hint of sympathy and empathy.
"So are you in a relationship?" I ask, I seriously want to know. "Yup, with Annie!" Thalia says in a mocking tone. "Shut up," Percy says to Thalia, then turns back to me, "Yes I'm in a relationship,". I ask him " So, what does your dad do, like your biological dad?" "He… he umm… is… a… a… marine biologist, yah a marine biologist," he hesitates to reply, I think he is lying some why. I ask Thalia the same question, "He is a pilot," she replies so smoothly I wouldn't have noticed that she was lying if I didn't see her chewing her cheeks from the inside.
Time Skip: 25 minutes
Aiden's POV
We reach their apartment. I quickly ask Percy, "Will I have my own room?", "Yup". We unload the luggage while Sally and Thalia walk into the apartment. Dad half hugs me, like a bro hug then takes my suitcase up the stairs. Percy and I walk up the stairs, Percy insists on using the stairs because it is only 3 floors high. He has one of Thalia's bag and my bag, both look extremely heavy but he carries them with ease. Now I notice his huge biceps and through his shirt I can clearly see his 6 packs.
It's along set of stairs and it takes me a lot of energy just to take Thalia's suitcase, which is very light, just to the first floor. Percy notices me struggling and takes the suitcase from me. He makes it look like he is carrying nothing, but he is at least carrying a 70 kgs. Now I'm saying I'm weak, I have 4 packs, I was really tired because of the flight.
The door to their apartment is open, it looks big enough to fit a family of 6. There is a living room, attached to it is a kitchen and there is a hallway which leads to a bathroom and 4 rooms. One door is painted blue, not just any blue, but ocean blue. On it is a sign which has 'Percy's Room' written on it, the door to the master bedroom is chocolate brown and the other 2 are brown. I assume one is my room and one is the guest room.
