I do NOT own Percy Jackson. I should have people working on that for me, hmmm. I'm SO sorry for not updating, I've been so busy it's ridiculous! It's summer for me, so I am (as a end-of-school treat) updating!
(Thalia's POV)
About a week later, Percy was carrying me up to Olympus, kicking and screaming. We had agreed that today, we were going to tell our parents. It was mostly his idea. As we entered the elevator of the Empire State Building, I almost started crying. My dad was going to kill me! Or Percy, or, even worse the kids, as in plural!
"Percy! I don't want to tell! Δεν θέλω να πω! Δεν είμαι έτοιμος! No! No! δεν!"
"Thalia, we agreed to tell our parents. Remember? By the way, you're starting to slip into screaming at me in Greek...again." Gods, darn it! This has been happening lately when I am really worked up, I don't like it.
"Percy, PLEASE can we not go? Can we wait until next week?"
"Thalia, you have your baby bump, most of the Camp knows because of it, and our parents still probably don't know yet. We NEED to tell them."

"I hate you Percy! I. F******. Hate. You. Perseus. Jackson."
"Yes, Yes, I'm sure you do hate me, Thalia. Let's go."
One Short Walk Through Olympus Later
"Thalia, Percy, what brings you here?" asked my dad. I swallowed, I was going to have to tell my dad sometime. Percy had a point, I couldn't hide it any longer. I've told the father, now I have to tell the grandfathers.
"H...Hi Father, we've um...got some news...for you...
"Father, I...I...I'm going to have a baby. Erm...three actually. Percy's the father." Silence followed. I think silence was worse than if my dad, Zeus, yelled at us. It was eerie, it's like Manhattan fell asleep again.
"Well...I suppose I was expecting this," said my dad finally, "It just shocks me, are you sure you're ready for this? It's a...big responsibility. Trust, me I should know."
"So...you're not angry?"
"No, not exceptionally; but you always do have the option of giving them up." I know that's probably what I'm going to have to do, but give them up? They aren't even in the world yet and I love them too much to do that! I wish I could die. Poseidon started strolling by, stopped and said, "Didn't mean to eavesdrop, but...you're going to have kids, son?"
"Uh...yeah, dad, already..."
"That's love for you, Zeus, they get along better than you with Hera. Huh."
"Don't remind me, Aphrodite signed us up for marriage counseling! We don't need it! I just get...distracted!"
"Distracted enough to have kids, brother? I don't think so." Percy whispered in my ear, "We better go. I really don't want to be here when the 'marriage counseling' starts." I laughed, and held Percy's hand.
"Let's go home Seaweed Brain. I need a nap."
Sorry, I didn't portray Poseidon and Zeus correctly! I think that they're happy for their favorite kids, I mean, after all, they don't need marriage counseling! So, no one's guessed the kids names yet! I have one more chapter which is going to ZOOM way forward in time to the wedding rehearsal! Can anyone guess what's going to happen?
