AN, PLEASE READ: Hey everybody. I know you all probably want to kill me for not updating, and I'm sorry. I've had a lot of personal things the that have been affecting me for a while now that has been preventing me, and I'm sorry about that. I would go into detail, but as I said, it's personal. I'm sorry that this chapter is so bad, it's just a filler chapter that showed a few things I wanted to happen but didn't exactly figure out how to type it out, as well as a chapter to get me back in the game, so PLEASE don't tell me how bad it was because I know. Thank you for understanding (:
Now, for those of you who skipped my AN and went to the story: PLEASE THE AN, thank you!
I woke up on the couch, alone, with the TV screen blue.
I sighed.
The kiss never happened. I fell asleep while watching videos, and the kiss was just a dream. I slowly got up and shuffled to my room. I need to get ready, Tyson finally comes home today.
Time Skip:
"Bye, Tyson! Bye, Percy!" the hospital staff waved after us. We smiled and waved back.
"Bye! Thank you so much!" we both said, tears brimming in our eyes. The staff just smiled and watched us walk away from the hospital. Before we reached the Proxima, I stopped and turned to Tyson.
"Ty, I need you to close your eyes, okay?" He looked confused but nodded. I grinned and led him to the Proxima, covering his eyes on the way there. Once we stood in front of the Proxime, I removed my hands from his eyes.
"You can look now."
Tyson opened his eyes and stared at the Proxima in shock, a huge smile blooming on his face.
"No way! No way! No way! You got a Proxima!" Tyson shouted. I grinned and ruffled his hair.
"Yeah, because you thought it was the coolest ride ever. Now get in, we should head home right now." I said, chuckling. Tyson practically lunged into his seat, and he wouldn't stop talking about the Proxima the whole way home. I couldn't get the grin off my face though. This was my little brother, and I'm so glad that he's finally back.

Once we passed the gates around the house, I stopped the Proxima and turned to Tyson.
"Ty, I need you to close your eyes again, okay?" Tyson just smiled and nodded. I quickly pulled into the garage and led Tyson out of the Proxima. Once we were facing the other vehicles in the garage, I told Tyson to open his eyes again.
"No. Fucking. Way!" Tyson shouted, his jaw practically on the floor. I laughed.
"It's cause I love you, bro. Now lets head inside, and close your mouth before you catch flies."
It's great to be a big brother again.

Time Skip, Next Day at Lunch:
"Hey, Annabeth!" I called after Annabeth as I walked to the cafeteria. Annabeth turned around, and when she saw it was me she blushed slightly.
"Yeah, Percy?" she questioned. I rubbed the back of my neck awkwardly.
"I have something important to ask you…" I started. Her eyes started to gleam hopefully, and she started to smile.
"Yeah?" she urged.
"My little brother just got out of the hospital, he's going to start school again. I heard that you have the highest GPA the school has ever seen. Would you mind coming over some time to tutor him?" I asked. Annabeth deflated. Her eyes lost that hopeful gleams, and her smile was a bit smaller.
"Sure, Percy. Just tell me when, and I'd love to come meet him." she said. I smiled and quickly gave her a hug.
"Thank you." I said as I let go. She smiled at me and nodded.
"Let's head to lunch." she suggested. I nodded and walked next to her, and it was a comfortable silence. Then, my phone rang.
"Hello?" I answered, giving Annabeth a look that said I would just be a minute.
"Percy, my boy!" Chiron greeted.
I smiled and laughed.
"Hey Chiron, what's up?" I questioned.
"You have a short notice interview with Z100 in about an hour. Ditch, get ready, and head over to the station. I'm so sorry I forgot to tell you!" Chiron explained.
"Don't worry about it Chiron, it's fine." I said with a laugh.
"If you say so, Percy. I'm still very sorry. Please tell Tyson I say hi! Bye, Percy!" Chiron said.
"Bye, Chiron." I said and hung up, turning to Annabeth apologetically.
"Sorry, Annabeth, I have to head over to an interview. I'll text you later, maybe you could come over?" Annabeth smiled and nodded.
"Sure! See you later, Percy!" Annabeth said, and then turned around and headed towards the cafeteria.
"See you, Annabeth. I owe you!" I said and jogged towards the car. As I was jogging, I got a text from Reyna.
It's a jointerview. Can I swing by your place and we head there together? ~Reyna
I smiled as I wrote my reply.
Sure thing, Rey Rey. You can meet Tyson! ~Kelp Head
Right as I hit the send button, I bumped into someone, sending us both to the floor.
"Watch where you're going!" a familiar voice snapped.
"I'm so sorry! I wasn't looking!" I apologized as I picked up the books.
I stood up with their books in my hand and finally looked at the person. Spiky black hair, pale skin, adorable freckles, and electric blue eyes. Yep, it was ex girlfriend and current roommate.
"Sorry, Thalia." I murmured as I handed her her books, not able to look her in the eye. It still hurt too much.
"It's alright, Percy." Thalia muttered, looking towards the cafeteria.
"I gotta go. See you later, I guess." I said, rubbing the back of my neck. Thalia turned towards me and nodded. I turned to leave, but she grabbed my arm.
"Percy…for what it's worth, I-I'm sorry." Thalia murmured, looking up at me. I looked down at her and smiled sadly.
"What for, Thalia? You're happy, that's all that matters." I said earnestly.
"How can you say that!" she exclaimed.
"Say what?" I questioned, turning my head to the side.
"Saying that I'm the only one that matters! Percy, I hurt you! I really hurt you, and I'm sorry! But you can't just act as if it's nothing!" Thalia exclaimed. My eyes darkened slightly and my smile became bitter.
"Thalia, a long time ago I realized that I would always get hurt. I'm used to it. Don't worry about me." I said, shaking her off and finally walking out of the school.

"DO YOU LIKE WAFFLES? YEAH WE LIKE WAFFLES! DO YOU LIKE PANCAKES! YEAH WE LIKE PANCAKES!" Reyna and I sang as we drove to the Z100 station.
"Oh my god, Percy!" Reyna laughed as I stuck my head out the window and screamed.
"No! HELP! A MANIAC IS STUCK IN THIS CAR WITH ME!" I screamed. Reyna laughed and hit my arm.
"Percy, the only maniac in here is you, now SIT DOWN!' Reyna laughed.
"Fine." I said with a sigh of defeat.

"And that was Percy Jackson and Reyna Ferus, singing a song from their musical, "A Very Potter Senior Year!" Thank you! Now, just a few more questions, and that'll be it for today everyone. Now, Percy, I think all of your fans want to know the answer to this: what happened with the mystery girl?" the interviewer asked. I swallowed and looked around. Reyna sensed my discomfort and discreetly slipped her hand into mine. I smiled gratefully at her and turned to the interviewer.
"Well, it was a really rushed and sloppy relationship, it was very confusing and still is. She needs to sort out some things, and so do I, so we broke up. It was a mutual decision." I said with a small smile.
"Thank you, Percy! You heard it here folks, now stop badgering the poor boy! Now, one last question, is anything going to happen between you two?" the interviewer asked. Reyna and I shared a look and then burst out laughing.
"U-us? G-get t-t-together? Hahahahahahahahahaha!" Reyna said clutching her stomach.
"Oh gods, no! Just brother and sister thing with us too." I said with a chuckle.
"Thank you for your answers! It has been great having you two here today!"
"Bye!" Reyna and I said, standing up and shaking hands with the interviewer before walking out.

Thalia's POV:
Oh gods, no. I fucked up.
As I said, TERRIBLE, filler chapter! I just needed to:
1) Get to a few things (Tyson coming home, Thalia realizing she was wrong)
2) Get my head back in the game
So, PLEASE don't tell me how bad it was, and how much of a disappointment it was, because I know! But the next chapter will make up for it, PROMISE.
Thank you for reading guys! Love you! ~NikiD1233
