Later on in Life.
Nico Di Angelo:
It was over fifteen years ago and my mind still keeps drifting back to when the gods had disappeared. I was thinking about it even tonight in, my office, in the back of DOA Records.(A/N: Dead on Arrival, its mentioned in the Lightning Thief. ) Los Angeles, beautiful city/town though far from Camp Half Blood, nothing was wrong with L.A., we easily use Pegasus or the grey sisters cab, to get there, I had everything planned out. I personally thought it's a good arrangement, but my kids..fell in love.
"Dad!" Amanda yelled from the intercom. Oh hey did I mention that we've made DOA apart of our Mansion, except the studio/works stay below "our house" and everything else stays above.
"What Amanda? And why don't you use the private intercom?"
"Sorry Daddy." She said but, anyway. "I know how you say that, fourteen year-old girls shouldn't have their boyfriends over when their parents aren't home. But, I'm almost fifteen and last year Jake always had Melanie over. And you know and I both know even Mrs. And Mr. Jackson know that they were not "only studying".
"I say this because I love you." She sighs.
"No,No,No,No. Max can't come over."
"But- Dad you know they live in Greece and I promise we'll be safe. And you do know I can shadow travel there. Right?"
"Nope you can't if I ground you."
"You wouldn't!" She screamed. "Gods I hate you"
And that was the end of that conversation.
-Other Places in the World-
Greece:
Annabeth Jackson:
"Hold on Max, let's just think about this for a minute."
"Mom! I know what your thinking. Well their just fourteen, they don't know how they really feel and they should just enjoy the time they have being young, because I didn't get that."
"Why do you have to be so smart?" I said
" I'm so smart? Why don't you think, I'm smart enough to make my own decisions with Amanda?"
"Because I don't want to see you grow up too fast."
"Gods. Mom." He groaned. "When does dad get home from the Caribbean? "
"Two days. And then you, me, him and Melanie will go to Los Angeles."
"So, I'm guessing me and Amanda will never get any alone time."
"First of all it's Amanda and I and nope."
" Why do you want to ruin my life. Ugh" He yelled as he ran to his room and slammed the door.
New York:
Travis Stoll
"Dad, why do we have to go to Los Angles you know how I hate it there." Lexi asked.
"You'll love it this time." I said trying to lighten the mood. That really didn't work.
"I don't want to go Melanie just called me saying that, she won't get to be alone with Max and she won't-"
"She won't what?"
"Never mind, but it's not fair I'm in love with Max too, and he kissed me last summer, but then he asked Mandy out in the winter. Amanda gets everything. But I have a fantastic plan. But I'll need Jeremiah's help." She said with a smirk.
"Okay hold, up I thought you like Justin?"
"Oh. Please Daddy. You have to keep up.
"I'll try sweet heart." I promised to try. Oh why did I promise to try?
Other side on NYC: Clarisse
"Don't be such a softie." I told my son.
"Me? Mom really. The next time, I see Max I'm going to rip his head off for taking Mandy from me."
"Atta boy, Justin."
"Mmmhmm. But it's easier said than done. I'm going to need help with this conspiracy."
"What about Jeremiah, Travis' oldest." I suggested.
"Yes. He'll be a great help."
That's my boy, I thought the only child I raised right. Haley might as well be a granddaughter of Aphrodite. So conceited. What a shame.
Amanda:
My dad pissed me off so, much. So I had decided to call Lexi, but she was no help. I decided to give confiding in someone else one more try so, I texted Max.
Me: When are you coming?
Him: Two days, until I get to see your beautiful face. Long brown hair. Light brown eyes and beautiful olive skin.
Me: I'm not beautiful. I'm… average.
Him: Oh please stop.
Me: What?
Him: Nothing. I just hate that we won't get any alone time.
Me: What? Do you want to test out your skills?
Him: Maybe..
Me: I want you to, too. And we'll find away trust me.
Him: I know babe, I drifting. Call you tomorrow sweetheart.
Me: Sure.
I knew he was about to send me an I love you text so I quickly delete all my messages, just in case my parents or brother want to come lurking around. And then turned my phone off. So, that him saying I love you would be the first thing I saw in the morning. I sure hoped that Max would do the same and delete his. All I had to do was wait to day and until August 22. When that day, would finally arrive, Max would rock my world.
Lexi:
I hate her, I really hate her. I need a plan. My dad doesn't understand. Why me? Why this life? Sigh Does everyone hate me? I don't care. I'll do anything in my power to get Max back. I thought about this as I wiped my eyes on my pillow case, no more tears with be wasted on Max Jackson. None at all. He's mine now. My plans were interrupted by my older brother, Jeremiah opening my door. Great. Just Great. He can read my mind a benefit only the eldest of the children of the gods get.
Me personally, I hated it but, it was just a filler I swear the next one will be better.(I thought it was way too weak.) Because it will be staged in L.A. So leave your hate/love comments and I'll keep writing. I know it makes no sense right now but it will later on :)
