Now on with the story.
Poseidon's POV
I stood at the door, shaking.
I promised myself I wouldn't do this. That I wouldn't involve myself with her again other than to watch and protect her.
But here I was standing outside Sally Jackson's door.
"You aren't here because of her" I told myself mentally "you are here to see Perseus."
So I took a long, deep steadying breath and knocked gently on the door.
"I'LL GET IT" yelled a young voice, my breath hitched in my throat as the young boy grabbed the handle and pulled it down, opening the door enough so he could see me but enough so he could close it if needed.
"Ummmm hello" I said, forcing myself to speak, "is your Mummy home."
"Hold on I'll be right back" Percy replied with such a grown up voice I almost laughed, he was clearly copying what he had heard others say and it was pretty adorable.
I could hear Percy talking to him Mom and Sally coming towards the door. I absent mindedly found myself fixing my hair and straightening my shirt "stop it! You are hear to see your son, not have your way with Sally" I scolded myself.
She peered her way round the door, when she saw me her eyes widened.
She stepped outside, closing the door behind her, "Hey!" protested a Percy. I could see him jumping up and down trying to see what was going on through the glass.
"What do you want?!" spat Sally, a little more coldly than I had bargained for.
"I just want to see my son, I want to talk to him." I told her calmly, keeping eye contact with her whether she liked it or not " I have watched over him for 3 years, all I want is 5 minuets to speak to him." I pleaded.
She seemed to consider it for a while before gently easing the handle down, opening the door and letting me inside.
During this time, Percy had gave up on listening to our conversation and had went to his room.
"You have 5 minuets" Sally reminded me, motioning towards our sons bedroom door.
I knocked before entering my son's room, I found him sitting on the drawing and colouring in.
"Hello" I said gently sitting down beside him, Sally also came in but stood far enough away to give us space.
"Hi" Percy said, clearly not knowing why I was here but not really caring, "want to see a picture I drew?" he asked I smiled and nodded, and I honestly meant it.
He turned his paper around showing me the picture of a beach he had drawn. There were dolphins leaping out of the water as well as , if I was not mistaken a face peering out of the water. I smiled a bit more knowing that those in my court were keeping an eye on my son like I had asked.
"Who are you?" Percy suddenly asked after we had discussed what was in his picture, the question startled me, after all it is not the sort of thing you would expect a 3 year old to be concerned about.
"Perseus" I said seriously, "I am your dad" he looked at me for a second before looking behind me to his mom who must have nodded because Percy turned his attention back to me
"You...you're my Daddy" he said a near emotionless expression on his young face.
I hardly had time to nod my head before he threw his arms around me and I held him just as tight.
I glanced at Sally who was watching with an emotionless expression she simply tapped her wrist but I knew what she meant.
My 5 minuets were up.
"Percy, what I'm about to say is very important and I never want you to really forget it." I looked him very deeply in the eyes, begging him to understand despite his young age, he was a Demi-god, so he would mature earlier than most children " I love you and I will always be proud of you."
With that I placed 2 fingers on each of his temples and closed my eyes, not because I had to concentrate but because I was afraid I might start crying if I didn't.
My son then fell back , his memory now nearly clean of the last 5 minuets. I got up holding him gently and pulled back his covers. I then lay him down gently and tucked him in.
I then lay a hand on his forehead and spoke a quick blessing before smiling down at him and whispering quietly "And I will always be there for you, whenever you need my I'll be there."
Possibly my best so far, also my longest so far. Hope you enjoyed it, I tried my best so please Review it honestly does make my day just to get 1 review.
