Disclaimer: I don't own Percy Jackson.


Percy walked through the streets of Olympus. It had been 2 months since they had defeated Gaea and... 1 month since Annabeth had broken up with him. She had stated to him that she couldn't keep up with his stupidity anymore and that she needed a break.

Percy had been heartbroken and it hurt him more than when he had bathed in the River of Styx. Percy had truly loved her with all his heart and when she had broken up with it felt like hell.

Percy had hurt but he wasn't surprised that she had wanted to break up with him. After the death of Luke, she had grown distant and colder towards to him. At first Percy had assumed it was just a phase and that she would get over it.

Oh how wrong he had been. So. SO. Wrong. Percy sighed this wasn't the time to be dwelling on the past. He had kept walking and walking. Many people greeting him. The Savior and Hero of Olympus. These were the names that people called Percy.

Percy ignored them. He did not want these titles. All he wanted was to be happy again.

Percy walked through the beautiful garden of Hera. He knelt and plucked a rose from a nearby bush.

He smelt its heavenly aroma. He sighed, this was one of the places he was truly at peace.

Percy was interrupted by a sob coming from one of the benches in the garden. Percy looked at the bench and saw a woman.

The Queen Of Olympus sat sobbing on a bench. Percy sighed, his hero disorder would not allow him to leave without first comforting the broken woman.

Percy also didn't want to get harmed by the Queen of Olympus, whom he was not on the best of terms with. He cautiously approached the bench. Hera didn't seen to have sensed him.

"My Lady?" Percy questioned. The affect was instant, Hera snapped her head towards him, furiously wiping her tears away. She managed a weak smile towards him.

"Ahh, the hero of Olympus, how may i help you?" Hera asked, she tried to put up a façade of someone strong, but her eyes gave away her pain. Percy sighed. this wasn't going to be easy.

"May i sit?" Percy asked her. Hera nodded and made space for him on the bench. Percy slowly sat down next to the Goddess.

"Do you wanna talk about it." Percy asked her. Hera looked like she was about refuse his offer. "It'll only get worse if you keep it bottled in." And with that, Hera relented, she sagged back onto the bench, looking more venerable then he had ever seen her.

"Z-Zeus, he.. he chea-" She couldn't complete her sentence, sobs wrecking her body. Percy put a comforting hand on her shoulder. Her sobs resided a bit, enough that she could talk properly.

"H-he cheated on me a-again, i know t-that i should b-be angry with him b-but it just h-hurts." She stopped for a moment, let out another sob as Percy rubbed her shoulder soothingly.

"I remained f-faithful to him a-all these y-years but he k-keeps c-cheating over and over a-again." She continued., Percy smiled sadly at her. "I just w-wish he would stop, i w-wish he would just s-stop!" She said, the last part a louder than expected.

Percy just listened to her for an hour, until she felt better. It was only than she realized that she had cried on his shoulder.

"Oh i'm sorry, i didn't mean to get you dirty." She said, Percy smiled gently at her.

"Well, it wouldn't be good if i disregarded the mighty queen, now would it." Percy said jokingly, it worked as Hera laughed a melodious laugh that the Olympian Goddess seemed to possess.

"Yes i suppose it wouldn't" Hera said standing up, she straighten the wrinkles on her dress. It was at this moment that Percy realized how beautiful the Queen of Olympus truly was, Her curly blonde hair and bright alluring blue eyes were her most prominent features.

Percy was shook out of his daze when the Hera offered to help him up. Percy gratefully accepted her hand and stood up himself, giving Hera a thankful smile. "You know, you never answered my question, what were you doing here." Hera asked him.

"Oh, i like to come here time to time. It's one of the few places i can truly relax," Percy told her, scratching the back of his had sheepishly. Hera smiled at him, noticing his obvious embarrassment.

"Would you like to come to my temple, I know some good ways to help with the pain."

Percy looked at her cautiously before he decided that it wouldn't hurt, probably. He shrugged and said, "Sure."

Hera smiled slightly before placing a hand on his shoulder. "Close your eyes," Hera ordered.

Percy obliged and closed his eyes. As soon as his eyes were closed he saw a flash of light on his eyelids and felt his body shoot forward at incredible speeds before stopping suddenly. Percy groaned as his stomach churned from the godly travel method. He opened his eyes and was surprised at what he saw.

He was standing in a room with simple white walls, a tan carpet covered floor, and simple brown couches. There was a TV, probably 40", sitting on a wooden shelf. In the shelves below the TV, there were movies, lots of movies. They ranged from Disney movies to romance movies. There were a few small tables around the room and two doors. All in all the room radiated a comfortable feeling.

"Where are we?" Percy asked looking around the room.

Hera rolled her eyes, yet again and said, "I already told you, we are in my temple."

"This isn't what I expected. This looks more like what I thought Hestia's palace would look like. I expected yours to be more..." Percy trailed off looking around the room.

"Royal?" Hera finished for Percy. Percy just nodded his head as he looked around him. Hera just chuckled at Percy's response. "While I may be a queen I am also the goddess of family, thus my palace looks like a family home." Percy just nodded in understanding before turning towards Hera. "So...What are we doing here?"

"Watching movies and eating Ice cream," Hera said while summoning two tubs of chocolate ice cream.

Percy just stared at the Queen of Olympus like she had grown a second head.

Hera just frowned at the way Percy was looking at her. "What?" She asked annoyed.

Percy just kept staring at her for a few seconds before saying, "Who would have thought the Queen of Olympus eats ice cream and watches TV..."

"Hey! I'm the goddess of Women, their habits rub off on me." Hera explained indignantly.

Percy just shook his head In amusement and grabbed one of the tubs of ice cream that Hera offered and sat down on a couch. Hera put her tub down on one of the corner tables and walked over to the TV shelf. She turned her head to Percy and asked, "What movie do you want to watch."

Percy blushed slightly and said, "I don't know. I've never watched a movie before."

Hera stared wide eyes at Percy. How had he lived for 16 years and never seen a movie? "Why not?" She asked, trying to hide her surprise.

Percy just chuckled slightly and said, "Demigods attract monsters when they use technology, including watching TV."

Hera just nodded in understanding before turning back to the shelf. She looked through the movies hoping to find something that Percy would like. After a few minutes of searching, she saw "Finding Nemo" and decided that Percy would like it, seeing as he was a son of Poseidon.

Once she put the movie on she grabbed her tub of ice cream and plopping down on the couch next to Percy. They sat in comfortable silence as they watched the movie and ate ice cream, chuckling when something funny happened. As they watched their third movie Percy began to get tired. It was almost midnight and he normally went to bed early, so he could get up in the morning to train new campers.

Percy yawned and stretched before saying, "Thank you for doing this for me, it means a lot. I have to go now, it's getting late and I don't want to overstay my welcome."

Hera just shook her head and smiled, "You can stay here tonight. I have plenty of extra rooms you can stay in if you want."

Percy looked at her in shock for a few seconds before slowly nodding as a smile formed on his lips. "I would love to," Percy said.

Hera stood up and the ice cream tubs, that seemed to refill every time they were empty, disappeared and the TV turned off. She walked out of the room and Percy followed. They started walking down a long hallway that had many doors in it. After a little bit of walking, they came to a room with a wooden door. It had a sign above it that said "Guest Room 36"

Hera opened the door, revealing a large room. The room had white walls and tan carpet. It had a wooden dresser, and desk, with a queen sized bed. Hera turned to look at Percy and said, "You can stay in this room for tonight. The dresser has clothes that will fit you. On the desk, there are instructions on how to get to the dining room. I should have food ready by the time you are awake."

Percy nodded and said, "Thank you, I'll see you in the morning."

Hera just nodded and left the room. Percy sighed, tired from his long day, and flopped down on the bed. It felt like he was floating on clouds as he laid on the bed. A small content sigh left his mouth as he fell asleep.
