AN: Here is three of four. REVIEW!

Isabell and Annabeth ran to a statue nearby that Annabeth had activated to help fight in the titan war. The guys hung back and kept walking at a normal pace.

"Oh, gods!" said Percy sitting down on a bench, a thought had just occurred to him. Grover and Nico both looked at Percy, both of them were dealing with their first pregnancy. Percy was on his second. "If the girls are anything like Annabeth was last time, then we are going to have mood swings and other lovely things to deal with (not) times three."

"Oh, yeah, well, maybe since there are three of us, then we'll be able to stick together and we won't crash and burn as easily." Grover reasoned. Nico nodded in agreement.

"Gods, do ,I hope your right." Percy muttered as they caught up with Isabell and Annabeth.

After Nico got rid of the monsters and the furies delivered the message, Hades decided to do what Nico had said to. So, Hades showed up at the little run-down apartment his son owned, but when he knocked at the door he didn't find Nico, he found a fuming daughter of Zeus.

"What do you want?" Thalia spat at the god of the dead.

"Uh, I wanted to see Nico." He answered taking a step back; she was scaring the god of the dead!

"Don't we all!" she exclaimed, throwing her arms up and walking back into the house. Hades thought twice before letting himself in and sitting down on the couch.

Thalia paced around the living room muttering to herself. "Why can't he just call?" she asked Hades in exasperation as she sat down on the other end of the couch.

"Gee, if he knows what mental condition you're in right now, it's no wonder!" Hades muttered.

"What?" Thalia asked on the verge of tears. Hades rolled his eyes.

Suddenly the phone rang. Thalia pounced. "Nico, where are you? Where did you go?"

"Look, Thalia, I'm sorry I just disappeared like that. It's just I needed to talk to Percy, you know, he's good with this kind of stuff." Nico said over the phone looking at Percy. Percy nodded. Then things went south.

"Why in Hades did you stay out so long?" Thalia demanded.

"Hey!" yelled Hades "I really don't appreciate that, young lady!"

"Dad's there?" Nico groaned.

"Yes, he is." said Thalia, glaring at Hades, who immediately shut his mouth. "Now answer my question!"

"Well, I was going to talk to Percy when I discovered my LOVELY FATHER," Nico yelled "had sent his FURIES AND THE HYDRA, to attack him and his daughter. Oh and of course Annabeth, who by the way is PREGNANT."

The onlookers turned to look at Nico who was yelling into a payphone. Percy waved them off.

Hades again rolled his eyes. Thalia punched him in the stomach and yelled "HOW DARE YOU!" Nico and Percy laughed knowing exactly what she had just done without even seeing it.

"Hey, Thals. I'll be right over okay?" Nico asked.

"Okay," Thalia whispered and hung up.

"I don't suppose you can come with me, can you?" Nico asked Percy as he hung up the phone outside a jewelry store.

"Nope," Percy said, "This one's all yours."

"Fine." Nico said and shadow traveled back to his apartment.

Nico appeared in the middle of his living room. Thalia ran into his arms.

"Hey, Thalia, it's okay, everything is going to be all right." He mumbled into her hair as she started to cry. He kissed the top of her head and held her until she pulled away and kissed him. "Thalia," he groaned, "hold on I've got to talk to my dad." She nodded and left the room.

Hades looked like he was trying to cover up the fact that he was impressed by how well his son could handle this moody daughter of Zeus and look bored. "So, the furies told me you wanted to talk about my getting grandkids." He prompted.

"Uh, yeah, about that," Nico said looking skirmish, "Can we talk about something else first?"

"Like what?" asked Hades.

"Like," Nico lowered his voice, "Let me marry Thalia."

"A daughter of Zeus? I think not." Hades put his foot down.

"Oh, come on, please? Zeus agreed and he wasn't very happy about her leaving the hunters for me!"

"No." said Hades.

"Athena and Poseidon put aside their eternal rivalry and allowed Percy and Annabeth to get married!" Nico begged.

"Give me one good reason I should let you." Hades challenged.

"I'll give you two!" said Nico. "I love her and, and…"

"Ha!" Hades laughed, "You said two but you only have one!"

"She's pregnant." Nico added.

"Now that's a good enough answer," said Hades. "Go on! Go propose to her. I got what I wanted out of this!" and with that Hades vanished.

"Thalia! Nico called walking into the kitchen.

"I'm in here!" Thalia said from the bedroom.

"Come on." Nico said to her, "We're going for a walk."

"Where are we going?" Thalia asked as they walked out if the apartment building.

"Central Park." Was Nico's only response as he walked smiling in the direction of the park.

"But that's five miles away!" Thalia protested.

"Is it?" Nico asked as suddenly they were nowhere and then arrived in the woods at Central Park.

"Nico, what's going on?" Thalia asked as he let go of her hand and grabbed something out of his pocket.

Nico lowered himself onto one knee and opened the little box in his hand. "Thalia, daughter of Zeus, will you marry me?"

"Oh, Nico!" Thalia gasped as she put her left out and her right hand over her mouth, "Of course I will!"

Nico put the ring on her finger and stood up pulling her into his arms. "Oh Thalia, I love you!" He kissed her for a long time before she pulled back.

"Nico, how did you get them to agree to this?" Thalia asked looking up into Nico's eyes.

"Your dad was easy," Nico said, "Percy swears that Zeus knew what I was going to ask and would have said yes even without my asking." Nico kissed her again, "My dad wasn't so easy. I had to tell him about the baby."

Thalia nodded, "So that's why you took so long. Percy was on his way to Olympus when you showed up and saved him. Then you talked to him about us so, he convinced you to go talk to my dad."

Nico nodded, "Percy and Annabeth are willing to let us stay in their apartment until the baby is old enough for us to move."

"That's good." Thalia said, "Your apartment wouldn't be a good place to raise a baby."

"No, it wouldn't." Nico agreed as he shadow traveled them back to their apartment to pack.
