Disclaimer: All I own is the plot and OC characters. Anyway, sorry for taking so long to update, know you guys hate excuses since now I'm on both ends of this but I promise I will get better it's just I've had to study hard for some big tests coming up that make up 35% of my grade of something like that. So yeah. Will update more ASAP.

Will's POV

After suffering through an actually okay science class with a few flirtatious smiles thrown my way, I basically ran to lunch with everyone else. When I saw Nico sitting alone I scooted around people too plant myself next to him. "Eat."

Nico groaned as he hid his face in my neck before pulling away and blushing. He seemed nervous but then he saw Percy and Jason looking at him with disapproving facial expressions.

Percy dramatically held his hand out to Jason who dramatically accepted with flourish, before they walked over hand in hand. "And no, I'm not saying no homo."

"Love you too bro. I guess you really do have a thing for blondes." Jason laughed as Percy's face turned pink but for revenge there was a kiss on the cheek waiting for him.

Piper walked over with Annabeth, giggling at the scene their boyfriends were making. "Did you make the blonde joke? Because really Jason, you do go for the rebel children with distant fathers."

Annabeth laughed next to her as she planted a kiss on her own boyfriend. "And Percy does tend to go for the smart blondes who may actually be able to kick his ass." She glared playfully when Piper hit her's. "Guess that just leaves us, lonely and heart broken."

Nico gagged from across the table. "I am choking on your gayness. And I'm the actual gay one here." He shuddered as they all smirked at him before sitting down.

"No Cecil, I did not! He was the one who tried to flirt with me, don't worry your pretty little head." Lou was glaring at him as they walked over, but it quickly changed to happiness when she saw everyone else. "Hey."

Hazel ran over with Frank as they all tried squeezing into the two tables we'd pulled together so there was room for everyone. "You are never going to believe what happened!"

Clarisse and Chris stormed over with the rest of the Hermes children and their girlfriends right behind them. Right after each other people showed up with a range of different emotions. Before anyone could explain, Calypso walked over with puffy red eyes. "Leo said he had to spend some time with his family, the one I'm not a part of."

Everyone froze, the anger fading out of everyone. Piper choked on the food she was scarfing down as she coughed out a "what?!" When Calypso just sat down looking heartbroken, she shook her head. "I think he just used the wrong words. His biological family needs some time before being introduced to us. It's a big step for them to even know he's here."

Everyone agreed, but she just shook her head. "He's with Rosie, her crew, Marianna and Ezmar." And then the sobs came as she put her head on the arms she had criss crossed on the table, her shoulders shaking. "It was too good to be true..." Before anyone could say anything to comfort her, she whispered, "I gave up everything for him. Did he tell you I'm mortal now? As soon as I left I was stripped of the title."

Everyone froze as she lifted her head. "I can't go back home now, I can't even get back to camp half blood without permission...I'm clear sighted like Rachel...but I'm half titan now. I'm, according to the boundary, a monster."

Piper glared at her. "Stop pitying yourself. I know you don't think you need this right now, but you do. Leo loves you so much he died for knew he was going to be the one who died because of his oath so don't argue. He worked through hell to get to you and nothing is going to change that. You aren't apart of that family because you aren't related to him. Her crew is probably there because they always follow his cousin around. For heaven's sake Tyson still needs permission to get into camp sometimes and he's not a monster! So stop it." She went back to eating as if nothing had just happened, as if no one's hearts were still pounding.

Leo's POV

"Alright. You're back, where are you staying? I want to know so I know where to send the police. I want to know who you are staying with, how you got here, and most importantly how you became friends with someone like people you are hanging around." Rose glared at him under thick mascara lashes as her pose hid behind her.

I held back an eye roll as I cleared my throat. "I can't remember what the actual address is, but I know it's an apartment building that Rachel's dad owns. I'm staying with my friends. Anyway, it's kind of a long story for the friend ting. Basically I got sent to a boarding school where I met Piper and Jason. Jason used to go to this camp that two of the other kids are from. There are two camps for the same reason, the one in Cali and the other one that's here. Most of the other kids go to the one that's here. Since Piper's dad told her that she should go to the camp, I got dragged along with Jason. That's kind of how we met everyone. The camp's didn't really trust each other when they found out they were created for the same reason because they didn't know if we were a bunch of kleptomaniacs with mental disabilities and we didn't know if they were just a bunch of military kids that like the Roman way of punishment too much. Anyway, it all worked out. I got here because we threw a party because I got sent away by some foster parents which is where I met Calypso, but they let me go back. Someone spiked the drinks and here I am. Camp directors don't like underaged teenagers having achohol." I tried to remember if there was anything else before a faint smile light my lips. "I found my dad."

I swear the shock on their faces looked like electricity but as soon as I told them about my dad the reaction was the same. "WHAT?!"

"He's a mechanical engineer for this big company with some of the most powerful people in the world working there. Mom didn't tell me but he visited her, saw some of my inventions. Even after I got put in the system. Turns out he couldn't and didn't know how to support or take care of a kid but we get along now. He knows a lot of my friends parents, kind of how we all got sent to the same camp. But whatever. Anyway, that enough?"

Marianna looked torn between cheering and smacking him. "Why...Why didn't he take care of your mom? Did he even go to the funeral?" She shook her head as she looked up at him with something that clearly was supposed to be pity. "He sound like he tried but, letting you stay with all your friends?"

"What are you talking about? Sounds like a dream, a couple doors down from those hunks of muscle and gorgeous bodies." This girl had on a cheer outfit with a giant bow in her hair, a v cut t shirt and short shorts. Her eyes were weird in the way that they seemed to be a bright blue, like crayon blue. Not human blue.

Mariana glared at her as she shook her head. "That's my point. He shouldn't be allowed to do this! If his father cared at all..." She gave me a surprised look as I started walking away. "What are you doing?"

I glared at her for the first time in my life. "Don't judge my dad. His life is hell, he's now married with a wife that is openly cheating on him with his half brother as well of a lot of one night stands. Piper was actually created through one of the better affairs she had where she actually can remember the guy's name. Did he really want to bring a motherless eight year old into that mess while my grandmother makes death threats at dinner seem normal. It's not like now that I'm old enough he's doing stuff for me. He didn't help me build my own motorcycle from scratch in time for school to start, oh no. He also did have some other kids that are my half siblings to watch over as well since they all live with their moms or at the camp. Oh no, he's terrible with social situations and has a sucky life. Of course that makes him the worst father in the world, I mean he can't be anything else."

"Look Leo, I'm sorry it's just that..." She was cut off by my brain tuning her out as I stormed off to cool down, literally. I could feel the hot flames begging to be released from my fingertips. My hands ached but I shoved down the pain til I was numb. I walked over to the bathroom as sweat appeared on my brow, my shoulders shaking. I could feel it coming like another army, but this one was of memories. A lot of years in the system, you come out with a lot of secrets. Secrets were something I didn't want at the moment, especially with the smell of urine burning my nose.
