This is a short story over how percy came to live with his father and step dad after coming from an abusive home. Sally is not alive in this story and her death will be brought up often. Please don't read if you feel are triggered by the loss of a parent, drugs, abuse, and alcohol. This is not to dark of a story considering I plan for it to have a happy ending; however, I am trying to add angst into the chapters as well.

I update at random and hope the chapters are good. Please leave a good comment below and thanks for your views.

Chapter 5: Come home

third person:

Triton took it the worst. He was always the one who helped look out for his siblings. being the oldests he felt he had to because he loved them all. However, triton was always the one who asked about more about him than the rest of the kids. so when dad always promised Percy was okay and was happy where he was at he believed it. Now he was just plain upset at poseidon, and himself. He had stormed out right after they had told us about it. He came in later that night drunk, and angry. Him and poseidon had choice words and Triton had went to stay at a friends house. Still not home the next day.

Poseidon Pov:

It was breakfast and today it seemed a bit quieter than normal. Hades even let me have peace this morning and stayed home from work to deal with the younger kids. I know everyone is scared and this is a new turn of events with Percy, but maybe it shouldn't be happening like this. I understand that Percy was here for closer and I may never see him again, but I do wish that his siblings had met him differently. Maybe him and triton would have gotten along real well. Percy didn't get to learn anything about them either. He would have loved to know about how much him and his siblings have in common.

Speaking of siblings I need to figure out if trton came home. "Has anyone heard from Triton?"

Everyone shook there heads not knowing where he had went. Letting out a sigh I moved over to the living room to watch the news.

Tritons Pov:

It only took me an hour or so to contact my dads friends and have them locate Percy. It was rather easy Artemis was working today at the station and I had her to look up Percy figure out his number and track im once he used it. Percy had stopped at a little motel that took me only half an hour to get to. I bribed the clerk with 50 bucks and prepared myself to meet my brother.

I knocked on room 12 and waited for him to open the door. "

"Hold on," A voice called from inside.

Once Percy had opened the door he tried to slam it right in my face. "I don't want to see any of you."

"Please just let me talk to you." I pleased with my hand holding the door open to keep him from closing it.

"No."

"Your my baby brother, please."

He stood there thoughtfully for a moment and finally after what felt like eternity moved aside to let me into the dingy hotel room. I followed him over to a small table in the corner. "Why did you come here?"

"Because dad told us about what happened. For years I thought you were happy and living with your mom. we all did. Then we find all of this out."

"So your here to what..?"

"I don't really know."

We sat there in silence for a minute "I guess I didn't really have this planned out. I spent so long trying to find you that I never thought of what I was going to say."

"There really isn't anything to say."

"No percy there is. You were hurt all of these years and I know you're angry, and gods probably still upset. But you have to understand none of us wanted that for you. We all asked about you, we used to get cards from Sally, and pictures of you at your swim meets. Percy we thought everything was okay. Please believe me."

"I have no reason not to." percy mumbled. "I do believe you, I know that there really isn't anything you all could do. But I was a kid. Whose father never showed up once to say hi or to even see me. I was waiting hours for him at every birthday party, and every swim meet. I would cry for him after every beating!" Percy had gotten upset and was shouting and crying.

"Oh percy." I quickly stood from the old chair and grabbed for my brother, who easily leaned in to me and let his sorrys out. He cried and clawed at my shirt until there really wasn't any fight left in him.

"How about we check you out of this hotel, and we go back to the house Percy?"

"I don't want there pitty." he sniffled.

"Well you wont get it, just a bunch of love from all of us. Even dad."

"Okay."

Percy Pov:

After I got myself back together Triton helped me pack some of my things for a nights visit with my new family. He was calm and helpful, and completely supportive when I told him that I would rather stay checked in in case I needed to come back. We drove our separate cars as well. and he even assured me that I could stay in his room instead of being alone tonight. Which I was grateful for.

I feel like a lost child. One who has run away from home without so much as a second thought. I never really call Gabe's house home after mom died, but every bit of my life happened there. Its hard not to feel something towards that house. Even if most of it is just burning hatred. I cant even stand to look at the place without the flash backs and the burning memories that crawl underneath my skin, and still burn my eyes. I feel like i've made it farther than I thought I would and even the world knows it. And i'm certain that at some point everything is just going to come crashing down on me and collapse all the progress that I have made.

After a quick drive triton and I pulled into the drive way. Its late and he already told me no one would be up. So we made or way up stairs and into his room.

"I have a cot that will be quick to put together if you would rather sleep on that then in my bed."

"It would be weird if I didn't sleep on it."

"Not t me." Triton assured.

"I would like to lay with you then."

I don't really know why. I feel scared and out of place and he's been so nice to me I don't really want to be alone. once we got into bed I felt tense and needed to lighten the mood. "I feel like you just lured me into your bed so you didn't have to work to put that cot together."

He laughed softly. "Yeah maybe. Good night Percy."

"Goodnight."

The morning will come early for me, and I don't know if i'm ready to face the family.
