Here comes chapter three^^ Thank you for the reviews they make me really happy and then I get a lot motivation to write! I'm going to introduce Percy to the pack but a few will probably be OOC 'cause I have no idea how they actually act. You are welcome to give suggestions on what will happen next, it could help me to write faster.
And I know I keep changing the time period for this story but that's just because I keep on remembering in which book different things are that I want to conclude. Sorry for that. Also I forgot to say that the
epilogue didn't happen so Jacob is still in La Push (obviously) and didn't get the wedding invitation.

kittykat: Don't worry I won't and thank you. I got very happy when I read your review :D

soratomoyo-chan: I will update as soon as I have written the chapters :)

Disclaimer: I don't own any characters in this fic, those are created of the amazing authors Rick Riordan and Stephanie Meyer.

Jacob

Jacob had to admit it wasn't as awkward to talk to Percy as he thought it would be. He was a very easy going guy and he got humor. Not a very good one but at least he was better than Leah.

Percy had borrowed a phone and talked to his mom. Jacob would love to say he didn't hear anything but he couldn't help but listen.

"Hey mom!"
"Percy! Were have you been? I have been so worried and you didn't call me when you got to the airport and…"
"Mom take it easy. Deep breaths. I'm fine." He reassured. "There was some… air… trouble and I got kind of… lost."

Jacob frowned at that. What kind of problem could there have been. And how the hell did he get into the forest when the nearest airport was in Seattle? No, he had to be lying. Maybe so his mother wouldn't worry more than she already did.

"Percy!" his mother's voice was stern. "What did actually happen? Was it Zeus? It was Zeus wasn't it?"

Zeus? Wasn't that the guy in Greek Mythology? No it had to be someone whose name was Zeus. Yeah, that was more believable.

"Yeah. But listen mom. I, I can't really talk about that right now. I promise I will tell you when I come home."
"Oh, you aren't alone."
"No." Percy confirmed.

After that they ended the call with a promise that Percy would Iris-message her when he had the chance. Whatever that was supposed to mean. Jacob was very curious now but he tried to hide it when Percy came back to the living room. He flopped down on the couch beside Jacob and sighed.

"Everything okay?" Jacob asked even though he suspected the answer.

"Yeah", Percy smiled at him and his heart skipped a beat. "My mom's just worried. A while ago I kind of disappeared for a year and now she freaks out as soon as she doesn't hear from me."

Jacob gaped at him. "You were gone for a year!" Percy nodded sheepishly. "I can so relate to your mother." Percy laughed and his eyes twinkled. "It wasn't my fault! I got abducted."

Jacob looked at him doubtfully. "So what you're saying is that aliens snatched you away for a year. I have some trouble believing that."

"Who said anything about aliens?"

"Then who?" Percy's grin faltered and he answered with an emotionless voice. "I don't want to talk about it."

"Alright." It was almost scary how fast Percy's mood changed. Unpredictable as the sea. And talking about the sea. Percy smelled rather salty, like he just took came back from a swim in the ocean. Even when he couldn't have been near it in at least three days, if you counted the time he must have spent in the forest and the air trip before that.

But it felt right. It suited Percy and his windblown hair and bright eyes. Jacob didn't notice he was staring at Percy again until Percy cleared his throat and looked uncomfortable. His leg started to bounce up and down and he squirmed restlessly.

"Why are you staring at me?" He mumbled and a delicate blush colored his cheeks. Jacob smiled apologetically towards him.

"I'm sorry. I just got lost in thoughts." He seemed to relax a little at that but his leg didn't stop moving.

"Nervous?" Percy looked up with a surprised look and then it switched to understanding when Jacob looked pointedly at his leg. "No, I got ADHD. It's a little hard to concentrate and sit still sometimes."

"Well, you want to go for a walk then? There is a beach not far from here and…"

"A beach?" Percy cut him mid-sentence and his face lit up. "We are defiantly going." Jacob chuckled at his eagerness and rose from the couch. He led the way to the hall and then he remembered something. "You don't have a jacket!"

"I don't need…"

"Don't be stupid, you would just catch a cold. You can borrow one of mine." And with those words he ran upstairs again, dug out a hoodie from his wardrobe and snatched his jacket from the floor were he tossed it last night,and then ran back down. Percy put the hoodie on and the jacket over that, and was it just Jacob's imagination but did he sniff it?

He shook his head. No that couldn't be right. Why would he do that?

Percy

Percy thought that maybe he just got addicted to Jacob's smell. He knew it was weird but he couldn't help it. The jacket didn't have the scent of motor oil on it. More like trees and something he only felt when he was around Mrs. O'Leary. Dog. But the thing was that Percy hadn't seen any sign that Jacob owned a dog.

But strangely enough that didn't felt weird. No it just made him wonder where it came from. And if Jacob's skin would smell the same. No, stop thinking that. He is a total stranger, he scolded himself. He is not a total stranger, his mind replied. You know his name is Jacob Black. You know he is friendly. You know he loaned you his clothes and took you home to help you. You know he is very handsome.

Percy sighed and dug his hands in the pockets of the jacket. Jacob looked at him with curious eyes but he just shook his head. He would not tell him what was going on in his head.

They walked in silence but it didn't feel uncomfortable. No rather the opposite. And that was the weirdest part. He felt so at ease around Jacob like he had known him for years instead of just a few hours.

"So… where're you from?" The sudden question startled Percy out of his own thoughts. "Uhm, New York?" He made it sound like a question instead of an answer.

Jacob chuckled. "Don't ask me, I don't know." Percy blushed. "Sorry. What about you? Have you lived here your whole life?"

"Yeah. As long as I can remember."

"And you're just living with your dad?" Percy continued.

"Mhm. I have two sisters too but they are not living here. Rachel attend a university in Pullman and Rebecca is living in Hawaii. After my mother's death they just moved away and they are rarely home."

"Oh", Percy said because he didn't know what else he could say. A simple 'I'm sorry' didn't feel enough. So they went silent again.

"It was a long time ago, I barely remember her anymore." Jacob said after a while.

"But the feeling is still there isn't it? You can't just forget someone who dies. Especially if that person was someone close to you." Jacob watched him, surprised at his words.

Percy smiled sadly at him. "A few friends of mine died a while ago." He could feel the other boy's gaze on him but he just looked down at the ground. Faces flashed in his head. Beckendorf, Silena, Luke. Leo. And before that Zoë and Bianca. Even though he never knew Zoë or Bianca well, he still counted them as his friends.

He didn't look up until he heard the faint sound of waves crashing against land and smelled the salt from the sea.

The beach wasn't what he expected. It was shaped like a half moon and the sand didn't have the yellow color you thought of when you heard the word. It was more… bleached. Yeah bleached were a good word for it.

Driftwood were spread over the beach and Percy could see a small girl and a teenage boy wandering in the tide.

"Quil!" Jacob shouted and the boy turned around. He got the same colors as Jacob, black hair and tanned skin but then the similarities stopped. Jacob was taller and more muscular than this kid, even if he was bigger than Percy.

"Jacob!" A big smile lit up his face. "How's it going?"

"Ah, fine. Yesterday I met this guy" Jacob nudged him, "when I was out. Heard anything from Sam?" Quil smiled at Jacob's sudden change of subject and shook his head. "Don't think you can change the subject so easily Jacob. And don't you think you should introduce us?"

For some reason Jacob looked nervous so Percy took the initiative. "I'm Percy", he extended his hand with a bright smile.

"Quil", he said with a equally bright grin. "And this is Claire." Quil lifted up the girl on his shoulders and she laughed happily and grabbed his hair with her small hands.

"Nice to meet you." Percy watched Claire with a soft smile. Meanwhile he could see Quil and Jacob exchange glances and he guessed they had one of those silent conversations that he used to have with Annabeth.

After a while Quil cleared his throat. "I guess we should keep going. I don't want Claire to catch a cold or anything." His voice grew soft when he said her name and Percy guessed there was something more about it. They didn't look like siblings after all. "So, see you tonight Jacob?"

"Yeah. See you at Sam's."

They watched Quil walk away in silence. "What are you going to do tonight?"

Jacob flinched and Percy could tell he didn't want to talk about it. "Nothing", he answered a bit to fast. "We were just going to hang out."

"Am I allowed to come?"

Jacob's eyes widened. "No!" He nearly shouted. "No", he said in a calmer tone. "They are a little bit hostile against new people." Just as he said it Percy saw a familiar shape rise from the water and he quickly looked away so Jacob wouldn't see.

"It's alright. I think I will be able to entertain myself." A relieved smile spread over Jacob's face.

"Good. That's good."
