Thank you to all the followers. I'm glad you're enjoying the story. I'm enjoying writing it.
"Piper, my beauty," Aphrodite says as she greats her daughter and Jason standing together waiting for the ceremony.
"Mother," Piper says hugging her and kissing her cheek.
"So, I'm waiting on an announcement from the two of you," her mom continues.
"Mom!" Piper says embarrassed.
"An announcement huh, how about we're pregnant," Jason says with a laugh.
"Really?" Aphrodite asks in shock.
"No mother," Piper answers rolling her eyes and smacking her boyfriend on the chest.
"Well I'm not getting any younger," her mother says with a smile.
"You're not getting any older either," Piper says.
"But you are and we shouldn't wait forever," Aphrodite says sweetly. Piper just shakes her head as Jason smiles and squeezes her hand.
"You made it man," Percy says taking his cousin's hand then hugging him.
"You bet," Nico says then shakes hands with Tyson. "I wouldn't miss your big day cous."
"How are things in the Underworld?" Percy asks.
"Morbid as usual," Nico says then laughs, "But it's gotten a lot quieter now that Persephone is up here with her mom. I love spring."
"At least your stepmom leaves some times," Tyson says with envy.
"Are you saying that Dad and Amphitrite argue a lot?" Percy asks his brother.
"Mostly just when the subject of you comes up, but you seem to come up a lot," Tyson tells him.
"Sorry bro," Percy says. Tyson shrugs his shoulders, after all it's not Percy's fault their stepmom is a bitch or that Percy is so famous.
"So anything new in your life," Percy asks Nico with a smile that means dating anyone.
"Not many breathing girls in the Underworld," Nico says.
"You have to spend more time up here with us Nico, or you're never going to meet anyone," Percy insists.
"I know but Dad needs my help," Nico tell him sounding a little unhappy about that.
"Come on, your dad has been running the Underworld for thousands of years before you came along. I think he can handle it," Percy's says.
"But he gets so stressed out when I'm gone," Nico says.
"He's just likes having you there and lays a guilt trip on you to get you to stay. Trust me. I've heard him whining and crying about his job. I think he wants people to think he's got it bad especially you," Percy tells him. Nico shrugs.
"You and Tyson need to stay at camp this summer and see what happens. I already have Tyson lined up on a date," Percy continues, elbowing his brother.
"You just said…" Tyson says thinking he never actually agreed to anything.
"Trust me. All I have to do is tell her you're ready and she will be too," Percy says with a grin.
"Well it would be good to spend some time with you guys," Nico agrees.
"And get some sun," Apollo says as we walks up on the three guys talking.
"Apollo," Percy says taking the god's hand.
"Percy, taking another beauty out of availability today," Apollo says with a sigh.
"Annabeth has been unavailable long before today," Tyson says thinking the god should know that.
"I know, I know. These two have been fated for some time," Apollo agrees.
"So are you every going to get married?" Nico asks Apollo.
"Me, noooo," Apollo says with a laugh, "Why by the cow?"
"That's not a bad idea," Nico says with a chuckle.
"Maybe, but you're not even getting any milk dude," Percy says giving his cousin a hard time. Nico shrugs then smiles.
"OK, who invited the hippies to this little shindig," Connor says to his brother and Leo.
"Maybe they're friends of Percy's mom or something," Leo says.
"You don't really think that, do you?" Travis asks, "I mean come on they have to be from our side of the family."
"Just because we're freaks, doesn't me we dress like that," Connor insists.
"You seriously don't think there has to be something godly going on there?" Travis asks.
"Why don't you go ask them who they are?" Leo asks.
"Cause one of them might turn me into something I don't want to be turned into," Connor says with a laugh.
"I bet one of them is a former teacher of Percy's," Travis decides.
"You know Percy and teachers don't mix. What makes you think he would invite one to his wedding?" Conner tells him.
"Fine, who do you think they are?" Travis asks.
"Maybe they're Romans," Conner answers.
"I've been to New Rome. Trust me, nobody dresses like that there," Leo says.
"Did you see that? The short one just waived at Hazel and she waived back," Conner says now pointing, "I told you they're Roman."
"I'm telling you they're not Roman. If the two of you don't have the balls to go find out who they are, I'll do it," Leo says then starts to walk away.
"Be careful!" Connor yells after him.
"Excuse me," Leo says greeting the mystery ladies.
"Hello," the shorter of the two says then giggles.
"My friends and I," he says pointing back over toward the Stolls, "We basically know everyone here, but I don't think we've met. I'm Leo Valdez." He extends his hand to the taller woman, "I'm a friend of Percy and Annabeth, well cousin actually."
"We're friends of Percy's as well," the shorter one says and giggles again, "I'm Fleecy and this is my boss, Iris."
"Not the Iris?" Leo says in shock, "the rainbow lady?"
"Yes, the rainbow lady," Iris tells him thinking that figures he would call me that.
"I'm sorry," Leo now tells her, "I promise my mom taught me better manners then that, My Lady.
I know your daughter Crystal from camp."
"Yes, I believe Crystal has mentioned you Leo Valdez," Iris now says with a smile.
"I swear I didn't really mean to grab her butt. I was…"
"She explained it all to me," Iris says now laughing.
"Do you think she'll ever forgive me?" he now asks, as his face is turning bright red.
"Time will tell," Iris says with a smile.
"Well, enjoy the wedding," Leo tells them, as he desperately wants to walk away from Crystal's mom.
As Leo leaves to return to the Stoll brothers, Fleecy says, "Grab her butt, My Lady?"
"It truly was an accident," Iris tells her.
"Is Miss Crystal OK?" Fleecy asks in concern.
"Yes, in fact she hopes he'll accidentally do it again," Iris says.
"So who are they?" Connor asks, as Leo gets back to them.
"Of all goddesses," Leo says shaking his head.
"I told you they were our side of the family," Travis says all proud of himself.
"Well?" Connor asks again.
"It's Iris," Leo tells them, "and the shorter one's her employee Fleecy."
"Iris, oh gods you don't think Crystal told her about you and the…" Travis asks.
"She knows," Leo says.
