A/N: Sorry guys this chapter took so long I'm starting school in a few days and I've been preparing for it so I might update twice a week once school starts. So now on with the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Percy POV
I woke up this morning extra early so I could talk to my dad. I knew why him and Hades came I mean wasn't it obvious, it was about Thalia and Nico.
I walked out of the Poseidon cabin and to the mess hall, I saw Annabeth there. Dang, she's fast. She turned around and smiled. I walked over to her.
"Hey."
"Whoa Percy you woke up early, good job." Annabeth pat me on the head like a dog that just did a trick.
I pouted. "This is important to me, because it's my fault."
"Percy, I told you it's not your fault." Annabeth looked at me concern in her eyes.
"I know what you said. It doesn't make feel less guilty."
She looked at me and smiled. "Well I'll always stand by you."
I hugged her. "Thanks Wise Girl."
We stood like that until we heard soft talking at the entrance of the mess hall. We pulled apart to see Thalia and Nico walking in holding hands.
"Hey guys." Thalia said as she smiled at us.
"What's up?" I asked.
"Nothing much. Scared about what Nico and your dad are going to say today."
"Yea that couldn't be as bad as everyone seeing me in my underwear."
Thalia giggled. "Thanks Percy. You always know what to say."
Nico smiled jokingly. "What about me?"
"You always know what to do."
"Oh really. Like this."
I watched as he kissed Thalia. I so had to mess with them.
"Yuck. Get a room!"
Nico and Thalia blushed and Annabeth and a few of the other campers that were there with us laughed. I smiled.
We sat down outside the mess hall on a bench because we weren't a loud to sit together inside.
"So what's going to happen?" I asked.
"I don't know Seaweed Brain, I can't see the future."
"Well my dad's going to throw a fit like he always does Poseidon and Hades will calm him down and everything will go back to normal." Thalia said nonchalantly.
"Thalia," Annabeth said, "I don't think it's going to be that simple this time. This could turn serious. It may be already we just think so little of it."
"And it's all my fault." I said.
Everyone was going to argue with me.
"No it was my fault, I do stupid things. No wonder I'm a seaweed brain."
With that I walked inside.
When I walked in I saw my dad, Hades, Hestia, Demeter, Artemis, Apollo, and Aphrodite, who looked pee her pants happy, Ares, Hephaestus, Athena, Hermes, and Hera.
Mr. D and Chiron were there, too. I sat down at the Poseidon table.
"Well hello demigods."
"Lord Poseidon," some campers bowed their heads respectfully.
"You know why we're here. Lord Zeus is unhappy about Thalia and Nico's relationship status."
Thalia and Nico both blushed at that remark.
"But that's where you, the campers come in. if we find enough people to vote against Zeus maybe he will put aside this silly idea."
Everyone started murmuring among themselves.
My dad smiled he must have been getting the right reaction.
"If you will divide yourselves, right being for the Idea of Nico and Thalia together and left being against them."
Hephaestus, Ares, Dionysus, Artemis and Athena went to stand on the left side of the mess hall. A few campers went over there too.
Aphrodite, Apollo, Demeter, Hestia, Hera, and Hermes went to the right side. My dad and Hades stood on the right side too. Of course Annabeth and I stood on the right side. Travis and Connor stood on the right side, so did Katie and Malcolm.
I looked over to the left side to see Clarisse and Chris standing over there. Jake, from Hephaestus was standing over there too.
Thalia and Nico just stood in the middle. They didn't need t take a side it was about them in the first place anyway. I just stood there holding Annabeth's hand. All of a sudden Zeus poofed himself into the mess hall. Zeus glared at his brothers and took his position on the left side.
"So brothers, this is how you're going to handle the situation?" Zeus glared at his brothers.
"We wouldn't be here you would let your daughter be happy." Hades said back.
"Talking about bad parenting says the God who put his son and daughter in a hotel."
"I only did it because you killed their mother!"
Zeus didn't have anything to say to that so he just poofed himself away. Everyone on Zeus' side just stood there in shock. I guess they never heard that story before. The tension was too thick for the Gods because they all went their separate poofy ways.
Chiron was the first to the break the silence.
"Back to your activities."
Everyone did a double take before slowly going to their activities. Annabeth and I intertwined our hands and walked over to Thalia and Nico.
They both looked sad so I gave them a half-hearted smile. They smiled back but I knew they were still upset about their parents' outburst.
"Hey guys, wanna go to the beach?"
Everyone laughed at me which I wasn't sure why.
"Alright guys let's get Seaweed Brain here to the beach."
Thalia and Nico just laughed while Annabeth was pushing me out of the mess hall.
At the beach
Thalia POV
I couldn't believe my dad. He killed Nico's Mom! I'm so embarrassed now. I know my dad did some stupid stuff but he would regret it later or think about it. But when Hades said that my dad didn't even look hurt or guilty. I felt so bad for Hades though he sounded so sad. Who knew the Lord of the Dead could have feelings?
"AHHH!"
I looked up to see Annabeth running from Percy who was using his water powers to splash her. I felt Nico chuckle next to me and I couldn't help but laughing, too. Even if they didn't intend to Annabeth and Percy could always make me laugh with their antics.
Nico and I sat down in the sand.
"What's up Thals?"
Dang it, I was hoping we could avoid this.
"Well I was thinking about what your dad said to mine, about your mom. Why didn't you tell me?"
"The only reason I didn't tell you is because I didn't want you to feel guilty."
"But, why would my dad do that?"
"Well your dad was trying to kill me and Bianca. But my dad put a bubble around us to protect us, but unfortunately for all of us my dad was too late with protecting my mom."
I looked at Nico.
"I'm so sorry."
"It's okay, it wasn't your fault."
"No it's my dad's fault." I muttered to myself.
I turned to see Percy and Annabeth looking up at the sky. They were looking at the clouds, and they seemed pretty relaxed for people who were an important part of a war. I sighed.
"What's the matter?"
I looked up at Nico.
"Isn't it obvious, Nico we started a war. A war! Do you understand?"
I put my hands on either side of his face and shook his head a few times hoping that would get the info in there.
When I was done shaking his head he put his hands on mine. My hands stayed on either side of his face. His eyes wandered around woozily.
He blinked a few times then stared at me.
"Don't do that." He said trying to be stern.
I just laughed at him as he pouted.
I gave him a sweet kiss on the lips. He grinned.
"Can I do that?" I said with amusement.
"Sure." And I kissed him again.
We laid down in the sand.
"I love you Thals."
"I love you, too, Nico."
I smiled first time for everything.
