A to Z with the di Angelos
Parental Life of Heroes
16. S is for Schwarzwald [December 2028]
The most exciting thing was happening in the winter when Silly was five. She was holding onto Jimmy's hand and pulling him along. He stumbled along after his twin-sister, but never out of their parents' sight. They were spending winter break in Germany, because Nyssa and Kayla had invited most of their generation to drop by and check out their greatest achievement – Heldenheim, the European version of New Athens. Everything looked so different from New York, New Athens or New Rome. Such cute houses and so much nature, it felt so different, with such a different culture.
"The day trip was a great idea, love", declared Nico amused, pushing the stroller with Jack in it.
Percy Junior and Bianca Maria were window shopping at a store with expensive jewelry, while Donny and Thess were more interested in staring out at the lake. After exploring about every inch of Heldenheim, they had decided to explore all of the Black Forest a little more. Right now, they were on a day trip to Titisee, a large lake with lots of tourist shops all around it.
"Mommy, mommy, mommy!", exclaimed Silly excited as she hopped up and down in front of Percy. "This is all so pretty! All the mountains with the pretty, dark trees all around. It's like being all surrounded by forest! What's it called, mommy?"
"It's called Schwarzwald", answered Percy with a smile as he knelt down in front of Nico. "That's German for Black Forest, because all the dark trees make it look, well, black. It's also the place where your daddy asked for my hand, you know? Not exactly here, but in the Black Forest."
"Wow", whispered Silly in awe, tugging some more on Jimmy's hand. "S—Swartzwald?"
"Close", grinned Percy and patted her head.
"I wanna learn German!", declared Silly determined, locking eyes with Jimmy. "It sounds funny! And mommy knows it too, right, mommy? You can teach me! I wanna learn!"
"I learned it because after your daddy proposed to me in Germany, we decided to spend our honeymoon here too and I wanted to learn more about the culture and all and then I ended up learning the language", confirmed Percy fondly. "If you wanna learn, I can teach you?"
"They're already learning Italian", countered Nico unsure.
"They're not 'learning' Italian, they were raised bilingual. It comes natural to them at this point and you can learn languages better when you're younger and it's very valuable to know other languages", argued Percy and got up to pull Nico into a soft kiss.
"If Silly wants to learn, I wanna too", hummed Jimmy curiously, looking around.
"Oh! And I wanna drive over the lake! Can we get on a boat?", asked Silly next.
"That girl has too much energy and wants too much at once", pointed Nico out fondly.
"Well, she's my daughter and since I got everything", declared Percy with a teasing smirk and turned around. "Bia, Donny, Junior, Thess! Come, let's take a ride on one of the boats!"
The four instantly ran up to their mom and surrounded him. Nico snorted fondly and leaned against the stroller, Jack inside giggling and reaching out into the direction of Percy too. Nico took the chubby little hand to tickle it while watching Percy being circled by their kids.
"Those little ducklings would follow you anywhere", pointed Nico out and started pushing the stroller. "And since not-fond-of-water me just got outvoted by everyone, let's take a boat tour."
Percy grinned mischievously and high fived his children one by one. He then took Silly and Thess by the hands, each twin having their respective other twin on their other hand, while Donny and Bia ran over to walk with their daddy and the baby. Silly grinned brightly as they climbed the boat and got seats with the best view on the deck so they could overlook the entire beautiful lake. She was so happy, because she had the best mommy and the best family and this was an awesome vacation and she loved this Black Forest and Germany. And mommy was going to teach her and Jimmy this new funny language, which also meant more mommy-time. And wasn't life awesome?
Author's note: Remember how waaay back at the beginning of "Chasing Fireflies" I said that while Percy Junior and Thess are more inclined toward Italian, Silly and Jimmy learned German? This right here is the moment they decided that~
Next chapter is gonna feature Nicercy celebrating their Crystal Anniversary!
And in other news, I did some math and realized that with my current updating schedule where every story gets updated once a month, I'd be done with this in a year and that's just ridiculous considering the chapter lengths, so I decided to take it out of the regular Wednesday-Saturday-updating-routation and instead update this one every Monday from now on!
