Chapter six
Piper's POV
I held my dagger in the palm of my hand. I looked at the blade, and saw a little boy hugging Atlas. I saw my son. "Why me?" I asked him. "What did I ever do to you?"
"You've done one thing, Piper." He stroked my cheek. "You've caught my eye." That was the first time I've been touched without yelling or suddenly crying. This time, the night didn't play in my head like a movie, it strangled it's self and let me smile. "I love your smile." He said.
"Um . . . Thanks but I don't think you should be here." I said. Atlas cupped my cheek and laid his hand on my sallowed stomach.
"If I'm not here, then you're coming with me."
"I've got work to do," I said. I forgot about everyone else behind me, and focused on Atlas, my baby boy and me. "You have to go."
"I'm not going anywhere without you and our child." He held my hands, squeezed then every few seconds and smiled. "I may be a titan, but I've always wanted a child of my own."
"Piper," Jason said behind me. I turned around to the gods. Chiron and the demigods and looked at all of them. "What's going on?"
"The night of Will's party, when I was walking home I . . . I got raped." Most people gasped. "And he's the father." Everyone gasped. "And the child will be born on the sixth of June, 2012." The gasps got louder and everyone started mumbling to each other.
"Wait! Wait." Percy stepped out of the crowd. "We defeated you and the rest of the titans –"
"We are immortals stupid demigod."
"Hey, don't be mean to my friends." I said. "Annabeth can only be mean to him."
"Fine." He grumbled. "We are immortals, demigod."
"That's better."
"We don't die, we just get sent to the depths of Hades hell and stay there until our mother decides that she wants to rule the world and you're all doomed."
Percy grabbed his sword, and started charging at him. It worked if only Annabeth and Leo hadn't held his arms pulling him back. Atlas laughed and crossed his arms.
"Hey, look at me." I said. Atlas looked at me with his beautiful golden eyes. "Promise me one thing, only one thing."
"Yes, Piper."
I took a deep breath. "Be there for him."
