Long time no update my friends!

This story is also a devoid of fans and love so... This took a while because of well, things. I'll tell you at the bottom.

I hope you enjoy!

And once again, Disclaimer: I don't own PJO or any other mentions.

Later that day, Annabeth and I walked down to my mom's store. The rest of the school day was okay, but the lunch incident left both of us kind of

sour. "Hey!" Annabeth said, "Look, there's the park. Wanna go?" "Sure" I said, "Race you there!" We both ran as fast as we can. Annabeth

touched the park fence. "I win!" she yelled. I stood next to her panting hard and trying to catch my breath, "Yes, you win" She laughed and ran

to the swing. She sat down and swung herself. "So, when are you going to go visit Bianca?" I sat on the swing next to her and started to swing

myself. "She's transferring hospitals next weekend, so maybe in 3 weeks time I will be able to visit her. Honestly, I'm very excited." I responded.

"Cool. Is anyone else coming with you?" she asked. "I'm probably gonna go with Thalia and Nico. Jason probably isn't going to come. I'm

pretty sure he doesn't even know about Bianca." I replied, lazily swinging myself back and forth. We sat down quietly. "I hope Bianca gets better

soon." she said. "I do too." I said, "You know what, let's get going." We got up and walked to my mom's store talking about our plans for our

futures. When we got to the store I opened the door and held it open for Annabeth come in. "Percy! Annabeth! How was school?" I heard my

mom ask. We both ran up to give her a hug. "It was good!" we both said. "Good. Do you guys want anything?" My mom asked as she walked

into the kitchen motioning one of the employees to come out to the register. "Um, actually, a bunch of our friends from school is coming over.

Can we use the back room?" I asked. "Sure, just tell me what you want to eat when your friends get here. The remote for the Xbox is in the

drawer in my office." She replied and then walked over to the front door to pick up some of the extra boxes that were on the floor. Annabeth and I

walked to the back room and dropped of our backpacks. "Your mom did some extra work on this room." Annabeth said. I looked at the room. At

the beginning of the summer this room was just painted an aqua blue with white couches and a tv. Now the room had a black rug, glass coffee

table, and Xbox and a bar. The bar had a soda maker, slushee vendor, and a cabinet full of plastic utensils. "Yeah, we went out and bought

some new furniture for this place, it was kind of empty." We sat down and turned the tv on. Annabeth surfed some channels and picked National

Geographic. We got a bowl of trail mix and got our homework. We completed our homework while eating trail mix and watching a documentary

on the history of England. Soon I got a call from Thalia. "Hey Thals. You here yet?" I asked. "Yeah. All of us are standing in front of your mom's

store." she responded as I heard Travis and Connor try to take her phone away from her. "Come in and tell my mom that you guys are meeting

us in the back room. I already told her that you guys were coming." I hung up and put my finished homework into my bag. I picked up my bag

and Annabeth's bag and put them next to the bar stools. "Are they here?" Annabeth asked. "Yeah, they should be here in like-" "HELLO MY

FRIENDS!" Travis and Connor yelled as they came in. "Like now." I said completing my sentence that was, uhm, very rudely interrupted than

non other than the Stolls. Thalia ran and jumped onto the couch next to Annabeth. "Were you bored without me? I know you were. Just based

on the fact that you were here with my Kelp Head of a cousin." Annabeth chuckled and was joined by more of our friends. "Okay… who is

here?" I said. I looked to see who was here. Annabeth, Thalia, Nico, Travis, Connor, Katy, Piper, Hazel, Frank, Leo, Jason, Grover, and Juniper.

My mom came in with food and was almost attacked. "Hello, I'm Ms. Jackson. But you guys can call me Sally. And here is some food for you-

oh, hello Thalia and Nico. It's been such a long time since I've seen you!" "Hi aunt Sal!" they both said. "This is my step-brother Jason." Thalia

said, introducing Jason. "Jason, this is your aunt Sal. Short for Sally. Extraordinair holiday food maker. Amazing aunt to go to when you father

is being a big di-" "Okay, Thalia. I think Jason gets it." my mom said giving a hug to Jason as well as Nico and Thalia. "How are you?" my mom

asked. "Good Ms. Jacks- I mean aunt Sally. Sorry, it's going to take a while to get use to this." he said, shyly accepting the hug. Leo got up and

yelled, "I want a hug too!" My mom laughed and gave him a hug as well. "And you are?" "Leo Valdez!" he answered. "Nice to meet you Leo!"

My mom went over to Nico and hugged him. "How are you doing sweetie?" "Good aunt Sally." he responded. "Bianca's doing well too." he

added in a quieter, softer, tone.

So, that is all I have. For now... Bigger plans await!

So if you want to know why I haven't wrote so often is because I had to babysit and do chores and all that snazzy stuff. I also recently got an injury. But it wasn't serious, but I affected my typing so... My grandparents also had been hospitalizedrecently and it really affected me because I'm really close to them and I really love them.

So anyways; like, follow, leave a review. All that good stuff.

See you somewhere
