Mending the Sea Percy was in Elysium. No, he was in the Isles of the blessed. No, he was in-well you get the point. It's been months since the break up with Jason. He moved out of Rachel's appartment. He made amends with Nico and Jason, who were now officially a couple. He's now living with his boyfriend Leo, in a loft in Manhattan. But they won't be staying there for long. Annabeth, being the official architect of Olympus, has decided that since Romand got a safe haven for demigods, the greeks should get one, too. She's naming it New Athens. They'll be moving there for college. They often visited Sally and Paul on Paul's demand. They're expecting a baby soon. A boy. But they haven't come up with a name yet when he visitted. He suggested Festus, in honor of Leo's friend/dragon, meaning happy. Because that is what he is. He couldn't be happier. But he was soon to be mistaken. "I'm home!", he anounced, but was not answered,"Leo?" Was this it? Had Leo really left him? No, Leo wouldn't do that to him. He saw a letter on the bed. He read the note-for quite some time being dyslexic-and it said: "Meet me in The Big House at midnight-Leo" He was curious. He looked at the clock. 11:30pm. Great. The one time he get's home early. What was he supposed to do, wait? No, being ADHD, he ran out to camp. He grew exhausted and slowed down to a jog as he passed camp borders. He came to a full halt as he reached The Big House. He checked his watch. 11:45pm. Oh come on. "Excited huh?", inquired a far too recognizable voice, "Figured you couldn't wait till midnight" "Leo!", he came up and hugged him and leaned in for a kiss. But stopped halfway as a voice interupted them. "If your done groping each other, come in", snorted Pipper. "We're coming!", groaned Leo. "I pray that you meant coming inside The Big House and not coming inside Percy" Percy turned bright red and Leo's hair caught fire, "Shut up", they chorused. Percy stepped in and froze. All around him were his friends and family. As in all the family. Among the campers, four monsters-Tyson, Ella, Mrs. O'Leary and Blackjack, three mortals-Sally, Paul and Rachel-stood two rather disaproving looking gods. Poseidon and Hepheastus. "Perceus", Hepheastus snarled, annoyed. "Leo", Poseidon sneered, irritated. "Hey, either you two play nice or you can just go!", Sally growled. They grunted in apology. "Sorry for that boys", Paul said, though he did glare slightly at Leo, irked. "Leo, seriously, what is the meaning of this?", Percy asked quizically. "I'm pretty sure this answers your question", Leo smirked. He got down on one knee, kneeling before him, and got out a box. Oh gods. "Perceus Jackson, may I have the honor of being your husband?" "What?" "Percy, will you marry me?" He threw his arms around him and wrapped him in an embrace,"Yes", he breathed. "Shall I then call you Percy Valdez?" "Why? Can't I call you Leo Jackson?" "Whichever, as long as you're with me" All the guest cheered. Sally tried-and failed-to not cry. Tyson and Ella whooped. Mrs. O'Leary barked. They all congratulated him. This was pure bliss. (Years Later, Jackson-Valdez house, New Athens) Percy was breathless. It was taxing being a mentor in Camp Half-Blood, instructing all those new comers alongside Chiron. He offered Percy the role after Mr. D retired. He accepted it, since he chose to be a teacher. Plus he had to do something while his husband walked around New Athens as a landscaper. And speaking of said husband, he came in and climed the bed and snuggled close to Percy. "Sorry I'm late", Leo yawned. "You don't have to apologize", he said. "I'm too sleepy for sex tonight" "It's alright, let's just cuddle", but he was already snoring. This is perfect. The End. A/N: I apologize for the delay but I was held up. I'm also sorry for the format of the last two chapters but something went weird and I'm using an ipad. Peace out!
