Bonjour ! I hope all of you are doing well. So I hope to have at least four chapters up over my winter break which is the 21st of December. So give me some ideas that you want to see. I will have all the major holidays and some other random stuff. So what would you think if I incorporated Jason, Piper, Leo, Hazel, Frank and maybe Reyna? I have an idea but I want to hear what all of you think! Let me know by either review/PM me! Thanks everyone! I don't own PJO, Riordan does.

We all sat down at the table. Mrs. La Rue was at the end of one side and Josh was a the other end. Then Clarisse, Max, and Emma sat on one side. Then I sat in between Chris and Fannie Lou across from Max. I had everything except the turkey. We ate and I saw Emma move closer to Max. I shot her daggers.

"Mrs. La Rue this is amazing." I said. Anything to get on her good side.

"Well actually Emma helped a lot." she responded. I offered to help.

"It was nothing. Thank you for letting me join your dinner." Emma said. I took a bite out of my mashed potatoes. Max smiled at me.

"Well why don't we go around the table saying what we are thankful for." Fannie Lou said.

"I am thankful for my lovely family and to have Carter, Chris and Emma join us for this lovely meal." Josh said.

"I am thankful for such lovely neighbors and a wonderful family." Emma said.

"I am thankful for a wonderful family and friends and of course Carter." Max said looking at me. He was so sweet.

"I am thankful for family, friends and Chris." Clarisse said. She actually has a heart.

"I am thankful for a wonderful meal with family and for Emma's help today." Mrs. La Rue said.

"I am thankful to be able to share a meal with my girlfriends family and my friends." Chris said.

"I am thankful to spend this meal with Max and his family also to make such great friends this year." I said.

"All of those are lovely. I'm so glad I could join all of you and share this meal with my family and friends." Fannie Lou said.

We all sat around the table and talked. How can Americans eat this much in one day? (Do you non-americans think that was also?) Then Fannie Lou came in carrying two pies.

"Who wants pie? There is pumpkin and pecan." she asked.

"I'll have pumpkin please." Max said. It amazes me how much guys can eat. Everyone else got a piece and I decided to have a little bit of pie even though I was stuffed. After dinner, we all went to the living room. Emma talked about Aimesly high and how different it was without Max and Clarisse. Then Max and Clarisse talked about New York. We had fun then of course there was football on tv. Josh, Max, and Chris watched the game shouting at the players as if they could hear them. I helped with dishes. Mrs. La Rue and Fannie Lou went into the living room with the guys. Emma pulled me to the side.

"Max has feelings for me. So why don't you take your illegal ass back to Greece." Emma said with a smile. I needed to punch this bitch in the face.

"First of all bitch let's get this straight. Max loves me, not you. Second I am not illegal. I am considered an exchange student which is perfectly legal." I said.

"Really um your what seventeen? Who do you live with? An adult?" she said with a sinister smile. I haven't figured out whether Emma is secretly a monster or just a bitch.

"Yes I am seventeen. I live with my best friend Annabeth and my other best friend Thalia. I don't need adult supervision. They want me to be queen next year and I don't need to supervised." I said.

"Really because it's illegal to live without adult supervision. You probably wouldn't know that because you're an immigrant. Why did you come here? Tired of your bankrupt country that your family helped create?" she said. I hate the twisted bitch.

"Well Mrs. Jackson is a phone call away. Second I have granted permission to live in this country. Third my country may have financial issues but I have figured out a way to help that. Fourth don't be talking dear because your country is $16 trillion in debt. Fifth I have Max so you can deal with that because he loves me."

"Max will come back to me. It's just a matter of time. Also Max's family likes me better." Emma said.

"Well actually Clarisse doesn't completely hate me. Josh likes me and so does Fannie Lou. So Mrs. La Rue doesn't like me because she doesn't like my background. No matter how much of a kiss-ass you are to Mrs. La Rue it doesn't change how Max feels about me." I said.

"Just go back to your country you whore." Emma said. How am I a whore?

"How am I a whore? I'm not trying to steal away another girl's boyfriend." I said.

"I have seen some of your covers for magazines." Emma said.

"The sluttiest one I had been in was me with a bra and underwear on. I've never posted naked and I guarantee you that I am much more intelligent than you and have more class than you." I said.

"Doubt it. I still have tonight to make Max love me." she said.

"Well that sucks because he loves me and has since July." I said.

"Whatever." she said then walked out of the kitchen. I walked over and sat next to Max.

"Hey." I said. He pulled me closer to him and kissed me on the cheek. I hope Emma was looking right at the moment. I could tell she was with the look of disgust on her face.

"Oh Emma do you need a ride home?" Mrs. La Rue said.

"Sure thank you." she said.

"Ok Max do you mind driving her home?" Mrs. La Rue asked him.

"Sure." Max said. I swear this bitch tries anything I will punch her in the face.

"You can take my truck." Josh said.

"Cool ready Emma?" Max asked her.

"Yeah I'm ready." she said looking at me. I swear I will beat this girl if she tries anything.

"See you soon." Max said then leaned over and gave me a kiss. Then Max and Emma walked out the door.

Max's POV

Emma and I got in Josh's truck. This brought back memories that I didn't want to re-visit. I loved Carter, not Emma.

"Thanks for letting me have dinner at your parents." she said.'

"Well no offense but it wasn't my choice." I said.

"None taken. Can we try to work things out?" she asked me.

"Emma you broke up with me and now I'm dating Carter." I said.

"What do you see in her anyway? I've known you since we were five. You have known her for what three months?" she asked me.

"Four actually. Carter is amazing, intelligent, beautiful, funny and she makes me happy." I said.

"What I did was wrong but can we move past it?" she asked.

"Sure we can move past it but I still love Carter." I said.

"Are you dating her for her money?"

"absolutely not. I could care less that she has a lot of money. I love her for what's on the inside not for her wealth." I said.

"Well you know you won't be able to be with her forever."

"Why not?"

"Think about it she will marry a royal person not some guy from Aimesly, Arizona."

"She still could. I love her and want to be with her. Actually she could be the one."

"Wait you actually are considering marrying her after four months of dating?"

"Well yeah I've thought about it but I'm still only eighteen." I said.

"Did you ever think we would get married?" she asked me. I originally thought that Emma was the one until she cheated on me.

"At one point yes but that was before you cheated on me with my best friend." I said.

"It was a mistake! Max I love you." Emma said then leaned in and kissed me.

"Why the hell did you just do that!" I shouted.

"Because Max I am meant to be with you. I was your first love not some slut from Greece."

"Carter is not a slut. Emma I just want you to go. Carter is my girlfriend and I love her." I said.

"Fine. When she dumps you give me a call." Emma said then got out of the car.

"She isn't going to dump me!" I shouted to Emma.

Driving around Aimesly made me miss it a little bit. I couldn't imagine Carter and I living here. Yes I said Carter and I talked to Percy once about marriage. He said he is probably going to marry Annabeth since she is the only one who could put up with him. I told him that I thought I could end up with Carter. It's difficult though because of her being royal but we can make it through. I love Carter and she is the most amazing person to me. I arrived at my house and walked in to see my family talking. Carter was talking to my nana which was nice that they got along. I think if I ever married Carter and we had kids, my mother would probably not be a good grandmother. Josh would be a good step-grandfather to my kids since he and I are close. My sister would be an interesting aunt, it's even more weird to think of her having children. I walked over to Carter and grabbed her around the waist.

"Hello beautiful." I said then gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Hey. I was just thinking I would head to bed." Carter said.

"Ok I think I'll join you."

"Well Carter it was so lovely to meet you and talk to you. Max you have such a lovely girlfriend and I will slap you across the face if you let her go." my nana said.

"Oh I won't let her go." I said then she smiled. She had such a beautiful smile. My nana left to drive back to her ranch and the rest of my family went to bed.

"Could you stay out here while I get changed?" Carter asked.

"Sure." I said. A few moments later she opened the door in her nightgown. We both got in bed and she cuddled up to me. The moonlight from the window hit her face perfectly.

"Did anything happen between you and Emma. Be honest I won't get mad." she said.

"Well she asked me to take her back to which I replied no. Then she kissed me and I pulled back and said I was in love with you. I do love you a lot Carter and I don't want you to leave me." I said.

"I hope that I will never have to leave you. Because I love you too." she said then gave me a kiss. I pulled her in closer and soon enough we both began to drift off.

So what did you all think? I hope you liked it! Let me know by reviewing and please answer my questions that I had at the top! Thanks everyone love you :)
