Me: Finally got a chance to update.
Ambrosia: Whoa, this place is cool, I've never been in here before.
Me: Well, congrats on finally getting to come here. FYI everyone Ambrosia actually comes in right after they leave to get Percy from Camp Jupiter during the Giant War and she gets a terrible brain injury. If you want to know more about her read You Have Got To Be Kidding Me!
Leo: I don't like this story.
Me: To bad.
Percy: She writes story's about me all the time. It's your turn now.
Annabeth: Wow, Percy you sounded like something in a horror movie.
Thalia: Cool, welcome to the dark side Percy, here's your cookie.
Nico: Make sure his is blue.
Percy: Cookies!
Me: We are getting way of topic. Someone just do the disclaimer.
Percy: *chewing on cookie* candyland7 owns nothing but her OC's.
Thalia: Percy you just SPIT ON ME!
Percy: *gulps* sorry Thalia.
Ambrosia: I'm turning off the microphone now.
3rd person POV
Leo felt uncomfortable the rest of the way to Mrs. Blofis', his cheek still stung from where Tiana slapped him. He was pretty sure that it was red, but he couldn't tell. Tiana glared at him every now and then, but he did his best to ignore it. There had been an awkward silence ever since they found out.
"Well, this is awkward," Ambrosia said.
Piper shrugged and leaned her head on Jason's shoulder. Nico had fallen asleep on Tiana's lap, who was drifting off as well. Leo kept rubbing his forearms, but stopped when Jason gave him a look. Hazel was talking to Annabeth in the front seat and Frank was chatting with Jason.
"We're here everyone up!" Percy called.
All those who had fallen asleep jerked awake.
"What took so long?" Nico asked.
"We ran into traffic, ran out of gas, and then ended up going down the wrong road," Percy explained.
"Remind me never to let you drive again," Annabeth said.
Percy kissed Annabeth's cheek before getting out. He opened the door and everyone crawled out. Percy stopped Leo from getting out.
"Look I really don't want to talk about it Percy," Leo groaned.
"It's fine Leo, I just wanted to tell you I understand. I cut too when I was younger, but I stopped," Percy said.
"You did?"
"Yeah," he rubbed the back of his neck, "I had a terrible first step-father. A few weeks after I was sure he wasn't coming back, I managed to stop. We're here for you Leo. You're not alone. Whoa, I just realized how cliché that sounded."
Leo looked at Percy in surprise. Percy looked like a guy who could handle anything.
"Come on Percy! Your mom has cookies!" Annabeth called.
"Coming," Percy replied.
Percy grabbed Leo and they ran into the building. Percy's mom was really nice and treated Nico and Thalia like her own kids. She gave them all cookies. Ambrosia and Thalia ended up talking. Percy made sure that Leo was never left alone. He didn't know whether to be thankful or not. Leo knew that Percy was trying to help him, but yet he felt slightly overwhelmed.
"So, Ambrosia did you ever have a nickname because whenever someone say's your name I never know if their talking about the food or you," Jason asked.
"I had one, but Jay…" Ambrosia took a deep breath, "he gave me my nickname. I…I can't talk about it."
"It's okay dear, we'll just call you Ambrosia," Sally said.
Ambrosia smiled sadly at Sally. Percy gave Leo a look which he understood. Leo put an arm around Ambrosia and gave her a small hug. Percy winked at Leo who ignored it.
"Thanks Leo," Ambrosia said.
Time Skip to After They Leave Sally's House
"Alright Percy pull over," Jason said.
Leo groaned and leaned his head back. Percy pulled over and turned off the engine. Annabeth turned around her gray eyes seemed to dig into Leo's soul. Man, was Annabeth scary.
"Okay, Jason why do we need to pull over?" Percy asked.
Annabeth hit the Son of Poseidon in the back of his head.
"Seaweed Brain," she groaned.
"You know you love me Wise Girl," Percy said cheekily.
"Okay we are so getting off topic," Jason groaned.
"There was a topic?"
Jason ignored Percy.
"Leo, do you want to…" Jason started.
"No, I really don't want to talk about it, beside's Percy and I already did," Leo cut off Jason.
"Well…we need to get you to stop."
Annabeth had this thoughtful look on her face.
"I read something online about giving someone who cuts an alternative to cutting. Such as an ice cube to squeeze when he feels and urge, a red marker so that he can draw where he feels an urge to cut, rip up old newspapers, play loud music and dance, etc," Annabeth said.
Leo was happy they were trying to help, but slightly annoyed too. One minute their ignoring him the next they're trying to help him.
"I'm fine, I don't need help," Leo growled.
"Leo, we're your friends," Piper said.
"Well, you sure didn't act like friends after the Giant War!"
"Leo…"
Leo didn't wait for the answer; he jumped out of the van and started running through Central Park.
"LEO!" Piper yelled.
He ignored Piper and ran down an alley way. Leo heard the van start and groaned. He knew he couldn't outrun the van. Leo found a service ladder and started climbing.
"LEO!" Hazel called.
Leo looked back and saw the van turning into the alley way. He grabbed the next rung, but it was rusty and broke. Leo tried not to scream, it didn't work.
"Leo!" Jason exclaimed.
Leo managed to grab the next rung and kept climbing.
"Jason," he heard Frank say.
"I've got him," Jason sighed.
He felt someone grab him from behind. Leo struggled.
"Come on Leo, I don't want to drop you," Jason said.
Leo continued to struggle and felt himself slipping.
"Leo…" Jason said.
"Let. Me. Go!" Leo exclaimed.
"Leo, stop I'm going to end up dropping you."
"No…just let me go Jason please."
Leo's voice broke and he felt tears starting to stream down his face. He stopped struggling and fell limp in Jason's arms. Jason sighed in relief because Leo was starting to slip. Leo started to sob and Jason set them on the ground. Leo collapsed at Jason's feet.
"Help me…please," Leo whispered.
Me: Oh my gosh, I cried writing this chapter.
Leo: I really don't like this story.
Me: I looked up how to help someone stop cutting and that's where I got the ideas on how they will help Leo stop cutting.
Leo: *bangs head against dashboard*
*Wedding March Plays in Background*
*Lady Screams*
*Beep*
*Random Guy talking in Spanish*
Jason:*grabs Leo and pulls him out of recording room*
Me: And that is why I don't let you guys touch the buttons.
Ambrosia: Please review.
Percy:*pouts* Hey that's my thing.
