Well that's what happened so sorry.

Percy Pov:

I woke up in a room that smelled like sickness, sanitizer. And puke. Instantly I knew where I was at, a hospital. I was pretty confused. What happened?Groaning I attempted to sit up but I was stopped by a hand. I looked up and saw a smiling nurse with hazel eyes and pink highlighted hair.

She shook her head and started to say," Mr. Jackson, you should not try to get up. Your condition right now is sort of severe and if you try to get up you might make it worse."

Ignoring what she just said, I stubbornly sat up wincing at my shoulder. The nurse smirked and gave me a "I told you so" look. She walked out of the roommuttering something about kid not obeying and parents that didn't teach them properly. I rolled my eyes and scanned across the room.

I stopped and saw Annabeth Chase. She was staring at me speechless. Suddenly she got up and hugged me. I pushed her off of me gently and crossed my arms. I was still sort of annoyed at her and she was kind of the last person on earth that I wanted to see. I took a good look at her. Her eyes looked pretty red. Most likely for crying. Her hair was a mess and she looked like she'd been here for hours. I turned my head and saw Thalia, Nico, and Luke. My face broke into a grin however all of them looked pretty shaken up.

"What's going on? Why am I here? What happened...I...I forgot sort of." I said nervously. I began to freak out. I turned to her and said," And Chase, what the hell are you doing here. Shouldn't you be shopping with your little airhead friends?"

Annabeth looked up meeting my eyes. She opened her mouth angrily and told me, "For your in formation seaweed brain my friends are not airheads. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for your stupidity."

She sighed and muttered an apology and said something afterwards that I didn't hear because words were inaudible. She coughed then stated,"You sorta got shot...sorry it's all my fault..." She trailed of sighing.

I managed a weak smile and reassured her," Hey it's ok, I usually have it worse."

Annabeth nodded and returned a smile.

I cursed. Gabe probably sent that guy to beat me up. I guess it made sent because been while he was away, he still wanted me to know who's the boss.

"Hey um could you call down Thalia and Nico? They are kind of my only family. Oh wait don't forget Luke...I think you know him he's my best friend." I stated.

"Mkay..." Annabeth said as she took out her fancy little iPhone 5. "What's their number?"

"Um (408)398-1838 for Thalia and just tell her to call Nico and Luke." (A.N These are fake numbers...I think you know.)

I stared. I've never had an iPhone...nevertheless a phone. The only thing I've ever had was a...um...even I don't know. As she talked into the phone I stared at the ceiling. I groaned, Gabe was gonna kill me, no doubt. Well...he would torture me. No doubt about that. He may have sent the guy to beat me up or shoot me, but he didnt want me in the damn hospital...AT ALL. He only uses me for doing his dirty work. I sighed...I can't wait till I'm eighteen and old enough to leave. Just thinking about that made me smile a bit. I snapped back into reality as Thalia, Nico, and Luke came running into the room.

They completely ignored Annabeth and pushed her over. Annabeth glared at them as Thalia and Nico said in unison,"Percy what happened...HIM again? And why is she here?"

Luke laughed and I cracked a smile. You see Thalia and Nico claimed to have nothing in common at all. Once I stated that both their favorite colors were black and their personalities were similar, on top of that they were related...so yea...oh and they both have seriously bad temper...wait don't forget if they weren't related already the would be dating.

About that if you were wondering about my health conditions after I said that... (Thank you very much.. because I have a bruise on my leg and one where the sun doesn't shine, curtesy of Thalia...and I had wounded pride thanks to Nico." Note to self and you guys, don't have a stack of embarrassing pictures in your room that in the reach of little kids such as siblings or Nico)

Ok back to what happened after Luke laughed. Nico scowled and Thalia glared at Luke and punched him. Luke turned to me and mouthed 'See? Bad temper!' Then he smirked.

"Nice to see you guys getting along in the same room." He declared.

"Your begging for your death Castellan. How do you want it scrambled, boiled, or raw." Thalia exclaimed sarcastically.

"Any way you choose to kill me, would be great though I do preferred scrambled because I choked on a boiled egg before." Luke answered smiling at her and winking.

Thalia opened her mouth to say something but closed it in defeat. She turned away blushing. I snickered. Thalia had a crush on Luke for years and never got the nerve to tell him. I tried hinting Luke however...it never worked. But get this...Luke has a crush on Thalia for years and he is to big of a chicken to tell her no matter how many times I say"go get your girl", or "don't keep her waiting", or even "just tell her you LOVE her for goodness sake!" cuz I would always get the same stupid reply," She would think I am weird a and never talk to me again and wouldn't ever be my friend!" Humph...life is so complicated because guess what, when I tell Thalia," Cuz just get your guy!" I would always get the same reply. My head in the trash can.

I got annoyed," Ok stop flirting and help me out of this hospital bed. How many floors up are we? Could I jump down or do we have to call your dad Thalia?"

You see, Thalia's dad owned an air transportation company or what so ever so she could get a guy with a helicopter any time.

"Hmm?"

I rolled my eyes," I said before you started looking into Luke's eyes and daydreaming...help me out of this hospital bed... Now! How many floors up are we? Could I jump down or do we have to call your dad Thalia."

"Yeah yeah yeah don't have to get all mad at me Jackson." She said annoyed as she started taking off the wires and stuff. She turned to Nico, Annabeth, and Luke and snapped," We'll don't you dare to just stand there like idiots, help me!"

Luke waked up from his trance and stuck his tongue out but gave in. "We are on the second floor so we don't need some fancy helicopter."

"Wait what do we do if he comes back?" Nico asked nervously. "I mean Percy you can't live like this forever."

"I'm not"

Nico sighed in relief.

"I would live like this till I'm eighteen."

"Your not serious right?" Annabeth questioned.

Luke turned to me."Why is she here? Shouldn't she be filling her nails at Silena's house?"

I groaned and replied reluctantly,"We'll she was sort there're when the accident happened."

"Well then...you know that nowyou have to tell her right? I mean I may not be that smart but you know that you have to tell her now because she's involved in all of this."

"Excuse me?"

I gave Luke a loot that said,"I'm going to get you for this so watch your back"."

He just smiled in return and gestured to Annabeth.

"Um yeah hello I'm still here...what do they want to tell you seaweed brain?"

"Seaweed brain?" Nico snickered.

I gave Nico a look then sighed," So when I was little my dad left me for some unknown reason. My mom remarried this asshole named Gabe and he was umm...how do I put this in an easy way...oh yeah abusing us. My mom went missing a few years ago so I'm basically stuck with Gabe for now. And back to my dad...he was brothers with Nico and Thalia's dad so they are kind of my cousins. Their dads tell them that my dad went missing about the time I turned two of something. So now until I become eighteen or an official adult...I have to deal with Gabe and his daily anger issues. And those gang members you saw right? Lets just say Gabe mad me take some of their beer bottles a few days ago because he was feeling 'sick of me'. So he sent them to beat me because he couldn't do it himself cause he was out of town."

"Can't you escape? Call the police or live somewhere else? I mean come on he can't be that smart to find you unless you are that stupid to not fight back." Annabeth argued.

"He would find me! He always does. Haven't you ever thought that I tried that before little miss perfect. He may be lazy and abusive but he is also good at tracking me down and he would need give up on making my short life miserable!" I snapped. With that thought I opened the window and swung my legs and hopped on the fire escape. I tripped on something and rolled down the fire escape bumping into a tree. I groaned and cursed at the god of balance -'is there one? I don't think so' and the god of nature.

I got up cussing as I dusted off the dirt off of my pants as I checked my left arm that happens to be bleeding like Hades. (A.N. Percy was never wearing a hospital gown if you were wondering...because...well...yeah)

Thalia, Luke, Nico and Annabeth came running after me their eyes shown with worry.

"Holy Zeus...are you alright? Dude you could have broken another bone." Thalia exclaimed.

"Yeah yeah yeah...I'm alright it's just a bruise." I said gritting my teeth covering my left arm as blood started to drip out of my hands.

Annabeth lifted arm and pried off my fingers." Bruise? Really Percy? Your such a bad lier seaweed brain."

"Sure I'm the bad lier Wise Girl...because I remember clearly that you couldn't tell the teacher that you did your homework without feeling guilty immediately and confessing the truth." I retorted.

"Hey feeling guilty is totally different from being a bad lier." Annabeth defended.

"Whatever you say owl head."

"Owl head? Do I really look like an owl head? Seriously that is one of the stupid nicknames I've ever heard."

"Hey guys, I hate to inturupt a very important argument but Percy you do realize that your bleeding like hell right?" Luke said sarcastically.

I grinned," You bet pretty boy."

"Whatever."

We all walked to Luke's truck and he opened the trunk. Inside there was a box with old tee shirts and gum wrappers.

"Here." Luke said as he tossed me a black tee shirt. " Wrap this around your 'bruise' or as I like to call it, a fatal injury."

I rolled my eyes but obeyed. We got in the truck and Luke started the engine. Thalia turned in the radio and it started to play Justin Beiber.

"Ugh, Justin Beiber. Can't they play something good like Green Day? Seriously I could die listening to this." He exclaimed as she switched stations.

" You say that to everything, Thals." Nico pointed out.

"Please...I would rather listen to Taylor Swift."

(A.N. I love Taylor Swift btw I don't care if you don't but I adore her!)

"I got to agree with her, Justin Beiber sings like a maniac and looks like a girl." Annabeth said.

(A.N. I'm so sorry if you are a Justin Beiber fan...please forgive me, it's jut part of the story ok?)

"Just like you Nico."

"I never sing!"

"I meant in the shower...duh."

"Wait back up...so SEEN me singing in the shower? Gross"

"No Di Angelo, I HEARD you singing in the shower. By the way, your a fan of Neon Trees?"

"Thals."

"Yeah?"

"Shut up."

"Make me."

"SERIOUSLY SHUT UP!"

"You can't make me."

"Oh yeah? Wait till you big mouth meets my fist!"

"Hey! Oh you've done it now Di Angelo you'll bee sorry so take you phone out and dial 911 while you can!"

"Ok both of you shut up!" Luke, Annabeth, and I said.

"Whatever."

We drove around a few neighborhoods further away form the hospital. Annabeth was looking out the window looking at houses and muttering something about great architecture permanent? And surprisingly Thalia and Nico weren't making some lame argument on soap or the color of Luke's car. We stopped at a colonial style home;Luke's house, and got out of the car. Annabeth nodded in approval her startling grey eys examining the house saying that it was a nice home with good craftsmanship in bio idling it and blah blah blah blah blah. When we got to the front porch of Luke's house I was tapping feet nervously because I knew what he was going to say...well make me do actually. He was gonna make me stay at his house odor the night. Don't get me wrong, Luke's a nice guy and all but I don't want to hang around his mom. Lets just say she's pretty crazy. You'll see...she's going to come home soon I think.

"Hey Luke."

"Umm yeah?"

"When is your mom gonna be home?"

"Umm not sure but soon I think?"

"Great that helps so much."

"Your welcome" He replied not detecting any of my sarcasm. "Let's go."
