Chapter 52
The day before his biggest concert, Percy is sulking at the corner of his dressing room. He was sprawled along the couch, his right hand holding his phone and his left arm covering his eyes. He just talked to Charles and confirmed that indeed Nico was telling the truth when he told him that Hestia, Charles, Leo and Reyna are the only ones who can come to see his concert. The rest of his friends texted him and told him that unfortunately they can't come to see his concert. They just wish him good luck.
Of course part of him knows that it can happen but it doesn't hurt to be hopeful at least that what he was thinking. When he learned the news he poured all his attention on the rehearsal but it didn't help that much. He was disappointed and distracted at the same time.
Today will be his final rehearsal and he doesn't have the heart to do so. They've only been started 2 hours ago but he keeps on messing up. Their director call a half an hour break when he sees Percy's state. He talked to him and told him to take a rest and pull himself together. So he thanked him gratefully and head towards his room to compose himself.
"Are you okay in there Buddy?"
It was Nico. Of course he's going to check up on him. He was watching the rehearsal and he knows something is off.
"Yeah." He lied of course. "Just a little tired but I'll be fine in a couple of minutes."
Nico snorted. Of course he knows why his cousin was distracted. He knows it was his fault but he's just following his plan. But it was better this way since he didn't also know that Annabeth made it to the flight.
"Cheer up. At least Charles and Aunt Hestia will come and they can finally meet your family." Nico offered.
"I guess so."
"Listen I need to go ahead. I have a few businesses to attend to. If there's a problem just tell it to Allie or you can call me."
Percy lazily got up and tossed his phone at his side. "Okay."
Nico went to sit beside him. He ruffled his hair much to Percy's annoyance. "Pull yourself together. Your aura is affecting the others. Cheer up will you."
Percy just nodded his head. Nico patted his back before heading to the door. There are people who are waiting for him back at his house.
LINEBREAK
Nico arrived at his house an hour later. A house? Yes, Nico decided to buy a house in New York since he mostly stays in there right now. He and Percy decided to buy their own house. Percy's house was a couple of blocks away from his.
Nico entered the house. He immediately went straight ahead to the living room where he heard the TV blasting some sports channel. They didn't notice him enter because they are currently arguing with each other on whose team is better. Only three people are on the living room, Travis, Connor and Leo.
He can't help but smile.
"Hey guys!" He said a little louder so that they can hear him.
All three heads snapped at his direction.
"Nico!"
Immediately the three rise from their seat and tackle Nico with a hug. He almost falls back by the sudden force.
"Dude your house is so big!"
"I can't believe you guys have your own private plane!"
"You guys are so rich!"
The three blurted out after attacking Nico with a hug.
"Okay calm down you idiots. Stop smothering my boyfriend." Thalia smirked while leaning against the door with her arms crossed.
Nico gave her his best smile. Thalia walks towards him and hug him. Nico hug her back and peck her on the lips. Thalia deepens the kiss though.
"Arghhh that's disgusting!" Connor complained.
Thalia broke away from Nico and smirked at Connor. "You're just jealous because you.." She pointed at him. "Doesn't have a girlfriend."
"Awww burn!" Leo and Travis exclaimed.
Connor glared at them. Travis and Leo just laugh at him and went back to watching TV.
Thalia chuckled and put her arms around Nico's neck. He rests his forehead against her.
"I miss you." He stated.
"I miss you too." She caressed his cheek. "You look exhausted."
"Yeah." He rested his head on her shoulders. "I didn't have enough sleep for a week now."
"Aww poor baby."
"Nico."
Thalia and Nico turned to look and standing behind them was Hestia.
"Aunt Hestia." Nico smiled. He broke away from Thalia to greet her.
He kissed her on the cheek and hugged her. "How was your flight?"
"It was fine." She smiled. "You just got home?" She asked.
"A couple of minutes ago." He answered. "Where's Charles? Where are the others?"
"They are upstairs in their room probably resting." Hestia answered. "Have you eaten already?"
Nico shook his head. "How about you guys?"
"Yup a while ago, come on let's fix you something to eat." Hestia ordered.
"It's okay Aunt. I'll just ask Martha to do it." Nico declined.
Hestia waved him off. She went to the kitchen and gestured him to follow.
Thalia chuckled on her boyfriend's reaction. 'Come on, you can't stop her."
She pulled Nico towards the kitchen.
While Nico was eating, Hestia and Thalia joined him in the dining room.
After a couple of minutes Charles entered the room. "Hey man!" He patted Nico's shoulder.
Nico smiled at him.
"Nice house you got here." Charles commented.
"Thanks."
"You stayed here a lot?" Charles asked.
"Not really. I always travel so I rarely stay here. I just bought it a month ago."
"You didn't tell me." Thalia pouted.
"Sorry." He squeezed her hand. "I wanted to surprise you."
"You surprised me alright."
Nico laughs. "Do you like it?"
Thalia nodded. "It's homey"
"Homey?" Nico asked amused. "Since when do you use that word?"
Thalia rolled her eyes.
"It's beautiful but don't you think it's too big?" Hestia asked.
"Big? You should see Percy's house. It's bigger than this." He chuckled.
"You know." Charles butted in. "You should have heard what Annabeth and Reyna said about your house."
Nico choked on his food. Thalia rubbed his back. "Careful." She scolded.
"Annabeth?" Nico asked.
"Someone called me?" Annabeth entered the dining room followed by Leo.
Nico eyes got wide. He stood immediately and went to hug Annabeth.
She was shocked by Nico's outburst.
"Oh my God! I thought you didn't make it to the flight." He blurted when he pulled back.
"Thalia didn't tell you?" Annabeth asked amused.
Nico turned to look at his girlfriend and Thalia was smirking. "Surprise." She teased.
"You don't know how happy I am that you made it." He stated.
"How come you're more than happy to see Annabeth than your girlfriend here?" Leo commented grabbing some food on the table.
Thalia hit Leo's shoulder. She turned to her boyfriend and crossed her arms. She questioned him by raising her eyebrow at him.
Nico glared at Leo before walking towards his girlfriend. He kissed her cheek and put his arms around her.
"Of course not, I'm just happy to see her because I know Percy will be happy when he sees her."
"Of course I know that dummy. I'm just teasing you."
Nico hugged her tightly and kissed her ear which tickled her. She tried to break away but Nico just hold her tighter.
"Okay lovebirds that's enough. Let Nico finish his food." Hestia scolded.
Nico and Thalia blushed and broke away from each other. Nico went back to his food. Thalia sits beside him.
After eating, Hestia demanded that Nico should get some sleep. He willingly obliged.
Before he went to his room, he reminded them that they will be having dinner tonight and that they will be expecting someone. They questioned him but he said that it will be a surprise.
"Feel free to explore around." He said to them.
Travis, Connor and Leo have glint in their eyes but Charles glared at them.
Nico went to his room followed by Thalia of course. The others teased them but they just smiled at them. Annabeth and Hestia went upstairs a little later to get some rest too.
Charles joined the three in the living room.
"Who do you think will join us tonight?" Leo asked.
"I don't know." Connor answered. "Wait! Will it be Percy?"
Travis smacked his brother. "Idiot!"
"What!" He complained. Leo and Charles chuckled.
"Don't be stupid. If Percy comes tonight then what's the point in surprising him at his concert." Travis said pointedly.
"Oh, you've got a point there." Connor said. Travis just groaned at his brother's stupidity.
"I don't know about you guys but I'm going upstairs to take a nap." Charles stated and stands up.
"I'm coming with you." Leo informed him. "How about you guys?"
"I'm not that tired." Connor said but Travis rose from his seat.
"Where are you going?" He asked his brother.
"Obviously I'm going to take a nap too."
"Hey don't leave me here." Connor whined but they just ignored him.
"Jerks." Connor was left alone in the living room.
LINEBREAK
At around 7 in the evening Nico was running down the stairs. His hair was dripping wet. His shirt was not yet fully buttoned.
"What happened to you?" Thalia asked amused.
"You didn't wake me up." Nico accused. He saw that everyone was already ready for dinner. The others who didn't see when he comes home greeted him.
"Now come on let's go back to your room. You look like a mess." Thalia scolded. Nico protested.
"They will arrive any minute now."
"So?" Thalia raised her eyebrow. "Now come on before I drag your ass back there."
Their friends snickered at them.
"Go ahead. We will just wait for them." Hestia said.
After a couple of minutes the two headed downstairs. Nico was looking better than minutes ago. Just in time they heard a car pull over.
"I'm going to check it." Nico said. He takes a quick glance at Hestia before heading outside. Hestia just smiled at him.
"Any idea who are they?" Annabeth asked. "Thalia?"
Thalia shook her head. "He wouldn't tell me."
They were all sitting comfortable around the living room when Nico entered followed by two people. It was a man and a woman, dress in simple but elegant clothes.
The man looks like in his early forties. He's quite tall, maybe 6 feet tall or more. Despite his age he still looks handsome. He has raven black hair and green eyes which reminds them of someone. He has this powerful aura, the way he carry himself.
The woman was younger, maybe in her late thirties. She has a warm smile. She has a long straight brown hair with a few gray strands in it, but, otherwise, doesn't look old. Her eyes are sparky blue. Overall she is beautiful.
Instantly Hestia got up from her seat much to their surprise. Charles stands beside her. The others followed suit.
"H..Hestia."
"Poseidon."
Poseidon immediately went to her side and hugs her. "Is it really you?" He asked once he released her.
There were tears in Hestia's eyes. She nodded. "It is me."
Poseidon hugs her again and this time Hestia finally breaks down into tears. He just holds her for a while. The people around them were all confused except for Nico and Charles. They wore smile on their faces.
Sally cleared her throat. "Poseidon, what's going on?" She demanded.
Poseidon pulled away from Hestia. He brushed away the tears in his eyes. He gestured his wife to come near them.
"Remember Hestia? The one I told you before. It is her, my sister." Poseidon declared.
All their jaws literally drop. "What?!"
Sally ignored their question. "Sister?" Then it hits her. "Oh my God! Your missing sister? You mean it is her?"
Poseidon smiled widely. "Yes she is."
Sally hugged Hestia. Hestia was shocked when she hugs her but she let her be.
"Hestia, this is Sally, my wife." He beamed.
"She's beautiful." Hestia praised Sally.
"Wait, how did you know Nico?" Poseidon asked Hestia.
Hestia looked at Nico smiling. "Guess we got a lot of explaining to do huh?"
Nico chuckled. "Looks like it Aunt, look at these guys faces." He teased.
"Wait, you mean you knew?" Poseidon asked Nico. Nico nodded his head.
"Why don't we all sit down so that we can explain?" He suggested.
They all obliged.
"By the way guys, I want you to meat Uncle Poseidon and Aunt Sally, Percy and Kelsi's parents." Nico introduced.
"I knew it!" Leo exclaimed. They turned to look at him.
"Oh sorry, it's just that I can see the similarity." Leo explained gesturing to Poseidon.
Poseidon smiled at him. "So I guess you know my son?"
They all nodded.
"Uncle P and Aunt Sally, I want you to meet everyone." One by one he pointed at them as he mentioned their name.
"These are Travis and Katie, they are a couple. Right next to them is Connor, Travis' brother. Beside them is Chris and Clarisse, they're engaged. That's Leo and his girlfriend Reyna. And that's Annabeth and right next to her is Silena, your nephew's girlfriend."
"Nephew?" Poseidon asked.
Hestia smiled. "Meet Charles my son." Charles smiled timidly at him.
"And this is Thalia." Nico put his arm around her. "My girlfriend."
"Girlfriend?" Sally asked a little louder. Then she realized her tone so she spoke gently. "How come you never told us that you have a girlfriend? How long are you two dating?"
Nico rubs the back of his neck. He gulped before replying. "Approaching 4 months."
"That long and you never told us?"
"Sorry, it's… complicated." He answered.
Sally shook her head. "Anyways it doesn't matter. I'm happy for you both. Is he treating you right?" Sally asked Thalia.
"Aunt Sally!" Nico exclaimed which caused everyone to burst out laughing.
"Now come here young man and give your Aunt a hug." Sally demanded to Charles. He stands up and hugs her then Poseidon hugs him too.
After that Nico told them the story how he knew that Hestia was his missing Aunt for years. He told them that he only learned the truth when he came back to Greece and stayed at their house. Hestia explained the whole thing to him.
Hestia only found out the truth when Percy confessed his real identity to her and to Charles. But before that, Hestia already has a soft spot for Percy, the moment he saved her. So when she found out that he was Poseidon's son, she loved him even more. She treated him as her own son.
Charles learned about it a couple of weeks after Percy moved in with them. Hestia didn't want to keep it from her son so she told him the truth. Charles was overwhelmed by the truth. At first it was surprising to him how his mom easily accepts Percy in their home but right then even he was already fond at him. So everything pull through when he learned that he was in fact his cousin, oh right step cousin to be precise.
But Percy didn't know about it. They never got a chance to tell him.
The group was too shocked to learn the truth. Now it all makes sense to them on why they chose to help him hide his identity.
Poseidon and Sally thanked her and Charles for taking good care of Percy back when he was in Greece.
"So I guess I should be the one telling you how we are related." Poseidon started.
"She is the youngest from the four of us. Hestia is actually our step sister. It was never an issue to us. We all love and adore her. So when our parents die we swore that we will protect and take good care of her. I was the closest to her."
Hestia smiled at Poseidon.
"Then she became a teenager and then she fell in love. We were all so protective of her when we found out that she was dating some college guy. We demanded her to leave him when we found out that he was just some regular guy and that he was working part time at Starbucks to pay for his school. We did everything we could to make him stay away from her but they were too stubborn. We even bribed the guy a large amount of money just to stay away from her but he never gave in.
We didn't stop from trying to break them apart. And it comes to a point that we never let her out of the house and that's when she loses it and she ran away with him. We did everything we can to find her. Even with all the money that we have, we never find her. We all regretted the things we have done. For years we searched for her but then we gave up.
Her disappearance shocked our family. But what hurt the most were the rumors that were spreading. They said that we got rid of her because of the money. It was too painful for us. Eventually it all died down. They forgot about her but we never did. We were still hoping that someday you'll come back to us and you did."
Poseidon explained teary eyed. "We're so sorry from what we did in the past."
"It's okay. I've learned a lot of things from what I chose. You never found us because we went to Greece to hide. One of his friends helped us."
"Where is he? Where's Carl? That's his name right?"
Hestia smiled sadly. "He passed away when Charles was 12 years old. He got in a car accident."
"Oh my, we're very sorry to hear that. It must have been hard for you." Sally said.
"My husband was very hard working and intelligent. So by the time he passed away we were already stable. We managed to run a small business that provides us well."
"Good to hear that. But it was sad that we never get to know him because of our stubbornness."
Hestia smiled. "It's already in the past. We can all start a new one."
Poseidon grinned. For a while he looked like Percy. "I can't wait to see Zeus and Hades' faces when they see you."
Hestia chuckled. Poseidon stands up and sits beside her. He put his arm around her shoulders. "Glad to have you back Sis."
'Me too."
Nico's phone started ringing. He reaches out for it and saw that it was Percy who's calling him. He saw that everyone is looking at him. He mouthed Percy before answering the phone so they all kept quiet.
"Hello."
"Where are you?" Percy asked straight to the point.
"Why?"
"Can we hang out at your place even just for a while?"
"No!" He exclaimed. They shot him a look but he just told them to wait. "I mean I can't, I went out."
"Went out? Aren't you too tired to go out?" Percy asked suspiciously.
"Yes but I can't cancel it though." He lied.
"Wait, are you on a date?" Percy teased.
Before Nico can answer, he heard Kelsi on the background. "Nico's on a date?"
"No I'm not. What are you two planning on anyways? It's already late." He asked changing the subject.
"He said he's not." Percy told Kelsi. "Yeah that's what I thought. He's too chicken out to ask a girl to go out with him."
"Hey I heard that!" Nico protested. He heard the two siblings laughing at the other line.
"Well then we opt for option 2." Percy stated. "Okay."
"What's option 2?" Nico asked.
"We are going out to find something to eat."
"Eat? Why? I'm pretty sure you have a lot of food in your house."
"I know. It's just that I wanted to go out." Percy stated. "How about we go to McDonalds?" He suggested to Kelsi.
"Then McDonalds it is." Kelsi second handed.
"McDonalds?" Nico blurted out. Poseidon looks at him asking a silent question.
"What's wrong with that?" Surprisingly it was Kelsi who was talking on the other line now.
"Where's your brother?"
"He went to change." Kelsi replied quickly. "So where are you really?"
"I told you I went out. It's not safe for you two to go out alone. Eric is not there to accompany you."
"Jeez Nico, Percy and I are both old enough to take care of ourselves. We're just going to go get some food then we will back. It's not like we are going to show ourselves there. What's the use of a drive thru?" Kelsi whined.
"Does Uncle P know about it?"
Even if Nico can't see her she rolled her eyes. "I'm going to call them if that will shut you up."
"Hey!" Nico protested. He frantically gestured to his Uncle that they were going to call them. Poseidon can't understand him.
Kelsi shoved Percy's phone on him. "Talk to him, Nico's being difficult. I'm going to call Dad."
"Hey Nico, got to go okay. See you tomorrow." Percy ended the call.
"Uncle P they're going to call you." Nico said immediately.
Just then Poseidon's phone started ringing. "Hello?"
"Dad?" It was Kelsi.
"Yes honey?"
"I just called to tell you that Percy and I are going out."
"Where are you two going?" Poseidon and Sally looked at each other.
"Just going to the nearest McDonalds, we will be back as soon as we can."
"Just the two of you?"
"Yes Dad."
"Okay then just tell your brother to drive safely."
"Thanks Dad. You're the best." Kelsi grinned and gestured an okay sign to his brother.
The call ended.
"Where are they going?" Sally asked to his husband.
"She said they're going to McDonalds." Poseidon chuckled.
"Fastfood, how many times do I have to tell them that it isn't healthy?" Sally scrunched up her nose.
"McDonalds?" Leo asked. All heads snapped to him. He felt a little uncomfortable from all the looks he received.
He scratches his head. "Did Percy suggest it?"
"Yes." Nico answered. "Why?"
"Well I just remembered that back then when he felt so down he always asked me to go there with him. I find it amusing."
"So you mean he's feeling down right now?" Sally asked. She looked at Nico.
"Oh I might have something to do with that." He confessed.
Poseidon and Sally looked at him and he explained it to them.
"Oh I see."
"I think I know why he made it a habit to always go there when he feels so down. " Poseidon realized something. "Well.." He grinned. "I might have bribed him a couple of times during his childhood."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Well you see, when he was a child, he was so clumsy. He always ends up hurting himself. So in order to make him stop crying I promised him to bring to McDonalds." He admitted. "So I guess, he kinds of carry it through.
Sally smacked his arm which causes everyone to laugh.
"What?" Poseidon defended. "It's not like it is a bad thing."
"That's why they never listen to me when I told them not to." Sally scolded.
"Are you guys ready to eat?" Nico changed the subject. Everybody nodded.
Everyone started to go to the kitchen when Sally called someone.
"Annabeth."
Annabeth turned to look at her.
"Can I talk to you for a minute?" Sally asked.
"Yeah sure." She answered uncertainly. They gestured the others to go ahead.
When they were alone, "I heard a lot about you." Sally started.
Annabeth kept quiet not knowing how to react.
Sally hugged her which shocked Annabeth. "Thank you." She said to her.
"I.." Annabeth started.
Sally pulled away from her. "I know my son loves you and I'm happy that you came. It will mean so much to him."
Annabeth just smiled to her.
"Now come on. They're waiting for us." Sally said with a smile on her face.
LINEBREAK
After an ear breaking scream from the crew of McDonalds they finally managed to drive away with their orders. Kelsi kept laughing the whole time.
"Did you see their faces when they saw it was you? That was so hilarious. I wished I had it in video."
Percy scowled at her. "That's not nice you know. I thought my arms going to break."
Kelsi snorted. They caused quite havoc back there when one of the crew recognized him. Good thing they got out real fast.
"So where are we going next?" Kelsi asked while munching on fries.
"You'll see."
Minutes later, Percy parked the car not far away from Madison Square Garden. Kelsi throws him a questioning look.
"You know, it was always my dream to perform in there." He started.
"And now it's finally going to happen." Kelsi smiled at him. "And we are so proud of you."
Percy weakly smiled. "Yeah, it is finally happening." He quietly mumbled. It was like he was reassuring himself.
"Something wrong?" Kelsi asked when he noticed his brother.
Percy glanced back at the stadium. He has this far away look in his eyes.
"Hey you can talk to me." She touched his arm and gave it a squeezed, urging him to open up to her.
"For the past months I've been working really hard to prove to someone that I can be better that I can do this, that I can fix everything that we will someday be together again."
"Wait, I don't think I can understand you."
Percy let out a deep sigh. "I guess what I'm trying to say is, she will never come back to me."
"Annabeth?" Kelsi realized it a little later. "What do you mean? Did you talk to her?"
Percy shook his head. His eyes were rimmed red. "No."
"Then why are you so sure that she doesn't want you back?"
"Travis told me."
"Wait what?"
"No actually, he just kind of slipped. He never wanted me to know in the first place, scratched that, they never wanted me to know, Charles, Leo and everybody else kept it from me."
"Are you sure?"
Percy brushed away the tears that streams down on his face. "Yeah."
Kelsi hugged him. "I'm so sorry to hear that."
"I was hoping she will be here tomorrow to watch me. I was working very hard to make it perfect if that's possible but I guess she will never know."
"Hey, there is still time. Maybe Travis didn't really know what's going on in her mind. Girls can be very secretive you know."
"I don't know." Percy buried his face in the steering wheel. "I don't know if I can still hope."
"Hey don't be like that. Never lose hope."
Percy snorted. "You're very hopeful."
Kelsi rolled her eyes. "You just kill the mood." She teased. "I thought I can give you more of my awesome advice."
"Yeah right like that will help." Kelsi throws a handful of fries at him.
"Hey! Not inside my car." He protested.
"Serves you right. Can we go home now?" She asked.
"What? We just got here."
"Oh I don't plan on wasting my time staring at that thing. Besides we need to practice you know."
"Oh right I forgot."
"So better stop sulking. There's still a day left. You'll never know what's going to happen."
"Yes ma'am." He chuckled.
LINEBREAK
After Poseidon and Sally left, the group decided to hang out at the veranda with the exception of Hestia. She already went to bed.
"Do you think Percy is alright?" Silena asked.
"I hope so." Charles answered.
Travis nervously shifted from his seat. Much to his dismay Nico noticed him.
"Is there something you want to talk about Travis?"
"W..what?"
"I can't help but noticed that you seemed very nervous when we are talking about Perce." Nico pointed.
Travis shook his head instantly. "Nothing, I don't know what you are talking about."
Katie eyed him. "I think you're not telling the truth. Spill it out before I make you."
Travis pouted at his girlfriend. "Oh don't give me that." Katie stated. "Just spill it out. I also noticed what Nico was saying, so you better tell it."
Travis surrendered. He will never get away from this. "Before I say anything, I wanted you to know that it was never meant to happen. It was purely accidental. "
"Just spill it out." Clarisse demanded.
Travis huffed. "Fine! I may have accidentally spilled out to Percy that Annabeth was back."
"What?!"
"Are you insane!"
"You're an idiot!"
"You were not supposed to tell him that!"
"We've talked about this!"
They all exclaimed it to him. Travis raised his two hands to surrender.
"I know and I said I was sorry. It happened so fast that I didn't have time to take it back."
"So that's why he looked so more depressed the whole time." Nico realized. "You should have told me. I may have done something."
"Like what?" Travis asked. "Look I'm sorry what so odd was the moment he learned that Annabeth was back, he only asked one question."
"And that is?"
"If Annabeth asked anything about him."
"And what did you tell him?"
"The truth, I told him no. Hey I never heard her talked or asked about him." He immediately defended.
Annabeth let out a deep sigh. Travis was right. She never talked or asked about him but it doesn't mean she never think about him. Being here is the proof.
"Hey guys look at it at the bright side. Percy will never expect Annabeth to show in his concert now. And for that his reaction will be better." Leo suggested.
"I guess you're right." Charles stated. "But if Percy will mess up tomorrow it will all be Travis' fault." He chuckled.
"Aww don't be like that." Travis whined. Katie smacked his boyfriend in the head.
"Hey!"
"Okay come on guys, let's get inside." Nico suggested. "Tomorrow is a big day."
"Big day alright, for Annabeth at least." Thalia teased.
Annabeth glared at her.
"O yeah, she was going to finally see Percy and they will kiss each other like there's no tomorrow." Connor teased while doing kissy faces.
"What?!" Annabeth threatened.
Connor gulped. "N..nothing" He stuttered. Annabeth's glare was terrifying.
"I will count to three and you better run for your life."
"One." She started. Connor already sprinted inside the house screaming like a little girl. The others laugh at him.
"Your brother is stupid." Clarisse said to Travis. Travis only chuckled.
"Well they're brothers what do you expect." Katie pointed out smirking.
"Wait.. What? Did you just insult me?" Travis asked.
Katie laughs at him shaking her head. "I really don't know why I managed to put up with you every single day."
"Hey!" Travis whined. "That's not nice you know."
"Oh quit it Stoll. Just accept the truth. You're lucky she loves you." Leo teased.
"What did you just say?" Travis threatened.
Leo stuck his tongue out at him. Travis rose from his seat ready to tackle Leo. But Leo anticipated it. He immediately stood from his seat and run inside the house.
Reyna and Katie face palmed.
"Face it girls, you're boyfriends are idiots." Thalia mocked.
They decided to follow them inside before they cause destruction inside the house.
I know you were expecting something on this chapter but wait the next chapter is up too. I don't want you guys to hate me so I posted two chapters today.
