Thus is copy pasted from my whatpad. Its decently old like from before I edited my stories so its bad and pretty stupid but whatever.


They were all chilling by the beach at CHB the 7, Nico, Will, Clarisse, the sStolls, Katie, Grover and Reyna and Thalia came to camp with the Hunters for the weekend. It was the beginning of August, right after the 2nd Giant War. The conversation changed more times than anyone could count until someone, maybe Percy maybe not, brought up Sally Jackson.

"She is literally the best mortal Perce, Your lucky to have such a great mom." Annabeth said with a smile knowing Sally was really like a mom to all of them. Just lucky that she was Percy's real mom.

"Yea and Paul's a great stepdad. At least the Fates gave you something good." Jason added.

"Ugh can we talk about something other than Percy's perfect homelife it makes me depressed at least he has a living mom who cares for him and a stepdad that treats him normally unlike the rest of us." Leo said slightly annoyed, slightly mad.

Wait was that.. sadness the passed over Percy's face? "It wasn't always that good growing up leo. I know how you feel for the most part." He said almost murmuring.

Thalia being the pertective big sister over her "brothers" caught the sadness in his voice. "Well actually percy you never really talked about your life before you came to camp and I'm pretty sure I never heard about paul until the summer you went to the Labyrinth."

Percy rubbed his neck. "Well that's because he wasn't in my life until the christmas before." Everyone from after those days looked shocked. The older campers like Annabeth, Clarisse, the Stolls and Katie knew that Paul wasn't there from the beginning.

"Wasn't your mom single before then." Katie asks growing a little scared.

"No." Percy answered in a low wisper. He wasn't there his eyes glassed over like he was thinking about bad times. "No, mom used Gabe to cover up my scent... Grover said that he could smell him even after the weeks we were apart. He-he said it was for my good." Grover knew what Percy was talking about. They had an empathy link. Grover knew what happened to Percy and talked to him about it but he respected the fact that percy didn't want anyone to know. Now it was out, Percy was finally going to tell his friends about his trauma.

"Percy continue, its ok were all your friends we can all help you." Annabeth soothed Percy. She put her head on his solider to comfort him.

"Annabeth did you ever wonder where those first scars came from."

"Well no not really."

"They were from him, the times he broke my bones, my arms my legs. I had to hide it like i said i fell skateboarding or got into a fight at school, things like that. Or the glass buts from those beer bottles thise left some bad scares." At this point Percy was in his own mind, images showing themselves. "He always took my money-and when I didn't give it to him..." percy trailed off looking to the ocean. After a few moments he continued "I thought he just hurt me, but then I saw him hit mom. That was the end for me, that's when I gave her Medusa's head. We-we killed him."

"Oh don't go all soft here prissy that guy is no better that the monsters we fight everyday. I wish he got a more painful death than turning into stone. Just from that short description. I'm mad really mad. No one is allowed to hurt our prissy." To that everyone agreed with clarisse.

"I feel horrible for bringing this up. I'm really really sorry. I mess every thing ugh." Leo finished with a grown.

"Actually Leo I needed to get that off of me, for my friends to know. I've been pushing it off for years. Thanks for helping me."

"Uh no problem?" that earned a laugh from the whole crew, lightning the mood just like what Leo intended it should do.

"So is this another thing I should be adding to the Percy's horrible life list."

"NICO!"

"What I'm just saying will."

"I'll add it to the 'problems to work on with percy list'. 1) talk about the things that bother him. Seriously some of us have known you for 7 years and did not know this."

"Sorry guess its just hard to relive." Percy said hand at his neck again.

"Nah we understand perce, you do realize everyone here went through some sort of bad home life in some way and we know how hard it can be to relive." Annabeth assured her nervous boyfriends.

"Thanks, now can we please change the subject away from me and my depressing life."

The Stolls being experts at knowing when someone needs a laugh did the stupidest thing they could think of, tackle Percy in tickles. For the next hour you could hear the Son of Posiden chasing and dousing then in water. The demig-d group was just left to wonder 'If Percy was hiding this so well what could others be hiding, to scared to go back to those memories, to scared to even tell their closest friends.'

Authors note:

Ok I know this is horrible but what ever sorry for my horrid Grammer and let me know how i can improve my fanfics. And yes I know the timeline is messed up but lets just say Leo took 2 weeks instead of 6 months to get back form Ogigiya.
