Olympia high Chapter 7

Percy pov

Over the course of the week, my siblings and I met all of Will's friends. They all from different kingdoms and had some really cool powers. For example, Jason could fly and control the weather to a certain degree, Frank could change into any animal, and Annabeth had telepathy. But of course not everyone liked us at first. Luke and Thalia always had their eyes on us whenever we were around and sometimes Annabeth when we said something weird like the horse incident. And this girl, Lou Ellen kept picking on Elli for some reason. Her boyfriend, Connor and his brother Travis claimed that she was always like that.

My siblings and I invited everyone over for a small get together the Saturday of our second week at school. We were having a cook out and Will was already at our house to help get ready. We had to clean the house after we had finished placing everything where we wanted it to be. Beckendorf would be the one cooking on the grill as he was the only person who knew how to use it. Once we were done, we went to the backyard and decided to lay on one of the large round hammock beds. We all fit on the bed nicely.

Will texted Nico to tell them to just go through the gate on the side of the house. It was a pretty cool walkway that had an archway that have ivy growing all over it. He smiled fondly as he read his text. "He said ok and he can't wait to get out of the car. Apparently he's squished between Jason and Frank. Haha I feel bad for him."

Elli popped her head up on the side of me. "Man, you are so whipped. I wish I had someone to love me like that."

"Shut up, Elli. He just makes me happy."

"Whiiiiiipped!"

Will groaned and pushed himself into a sitting position. "Whatever. Anyway, I'm bored."

Mila opened her eyes and suggested "We can go swimming until they get here."

"I don't think that's a very good idea."

"Why?" I asked

"Well because of the hole hating Poseidon thing, no one ever learned how to swim so it would be kind of fishy if we were swimming like we did it every day of our lives."

Mila sighed, "This whole hating other people for no good reason is stupid. Well now that I got the idea in my head, I want to swim. What's the point in having a pool if you can't use it? If they ask questions, then we'll make something up. I'm going up to change, anyone with me?" She got up and started to head up stairs. We all looked at each other, shrugged and followed her up there.

I wore my green trunks, Kai had his orange and gray ones on and I let Will borrow my black pair. Mila had her one-piece purple and gold swim suite on while Elli had a teal and white two piece. We all raced to the pool to jump in. We had a pretty high diving board so we all took turns doing tricks. Elli had the best so far with a pretty cool back flip.

We were laughing at Kai who slipped on the board and had a face plant in the water when we heard the gate squeak. Will jumped out the pool and grabbed a towel from the rack by the patio bar. Elli, who was already standing by the pool edge called behind him, "Whiiiiiiipped!" We all laughed again as Will ran back towards Elli and pushed her in but not before she grabbed his wrist and pulled him in as well. They both gave some pretty girly screams. Just as that happened, those who came (pretty much everyone) saw the event unfold. Nico in the front look horrified as Elli and Will popped their heads up laughing and trying to cough out the water they swallowed.

Mila looked over at the group standing by the walkway. "Hey guys!"

Will stopped laughing and looked over at the group in embarrassment. We all swam towards an edge and pulled ourselves out and going towards the towel rack. Nico ran over to Will. "Are you ok? Are you hurt?"

Will looked confused, "Yeah, why wouldn't I be?"

Annabeth walked over, "Well we heard a scream so we ran over to see you and Elizabeth falling into the…. Water? Why is there so much water in that hole in the ground?"

Will blushed while Elli tsked at her name being called like that. "Oh no, we are fine, we were just swimming. I was coming to greet you guys when Elli said something so I ran back to push her into the pool but she grabbed onto me and dragged me down with her."

Everyone else looked so confused. "Swimming? Pool? Why are you swimming?"

"We got bored while waiting so we decided to take a swim while we waited." I said "And, you know its good practice."

"Practice for what?" Annabeth asked. Gods damn she was beautiful.

Elli gave me a smirk as if she knew what I was thinking and replied for me, "You never know what might happen if the god of the sea decides to attack. Have to be ready." Everyone one froze and slowly, one by one they all believed her. "Anyway, I'm hungry so let's fire up that grill and get this party started…. Right after I get changed cause I'm cold." Elli ran upstairs to her room.

I said, "Well we're going to get changed as well so make yourselves comfortable and feel free to go to the kitchen, its right through the double doors." We ran upstairs to get changed and met Elli on the second floor. "Good to see that you're already getting used to everyone."

"Well, I figured if we were going to be staying here for a while, I might as well get over my 'shyness' sooner rather than later." She said with a smile and then gave Will a smirk, "So, Nico seemed pretty worried about you. You think that'll give you some cuddle time later?"

Will laughed and shook his head, "It's actually pretty weird for him to be so clingy, not that I'm complaining cause I'm totally not. I don't know what's up with him."

Mila laughed, "I'm pretty sure I have a good idea."

"Huh? What is it?"

Kai sigh and patted his back. "You are so oblivious. He's jealous, of course?"

"That's ridiculous! What would he be jealous of?"

"Us, obviously. How close we seem. I don't think he would be able to handle to see how close we used to be when we were younger. But I think he's mostly jealous of Elli."

"Elli?"

"Me?" Elli looked as confused as Will did.

I rolled my eyes at the both of them. "He doesn't really like how easily you two can joke around each other or how touchy you can be. Especially the other day in gym when Will picked you up and spun you around. It looked like you two were a couple."

"It does make sense, every time I talk to you guys and I look over to him, he's always glaring. Haha he's so cute."

We all laughed at him. "Come on guys, we've been up here long enough. But Will, made you pick him and spin him around sometimes." We laughed again and walked downstairs and outside to the others.

We jumped right into the conversations with them and had a really great time. Just like Elli thought, Nico pretty much cuddled with Will the whole time, not that he minded. It was nearing the end of the day when Lou Ellen walked over to Elli who was talking to me. "So, how do you live with yourself?" That startled the both of us as we looked at her in confusion. "I mean, how can you not have any powers or gifts and still call yourself a demigod?"

By now, everyone was looking at us and Kai, Mila and Will stood halfway between us and the others. I took a step back as Elli glared at her. "Excuse me?" Elli asked.

"Don't get me wrong, yeah you have ok fighting skills but that's not going to be good enough to fight against a god or even a titan. You should have just stayed where ever you came from. Or did they not even want you?"

Connor took a step forward, "Lou?! What is wrong with you!? Stop saying those things!"

Lou Ellen ignored him and kept talking. "How can a legacy of Hecate, my mother be so weak? It's insulting! You should just disappear!"

I've never seen Elli so calm and serious before. "You know that's funny. Last time I checked, Hecate was a minor goddess. She must not be so great if she's not part of the council. I mean there is an open stop, is there not? You think you're something so great just because you have something others don't when in reality, you're actually the weak one with your delusions."

"You little bitch!" Lou Ellen pushed Elli hard almost making her fall.

"HEY!" Mila went to push Lou back but not before Elli recovered and punched her in eye, knocking her out. Everything was quiet for the longest time before Elli bolted into the house and slammed the door shut behind her.

"Um," I said "I think it's time to say good night." Everyone slowly came out of their shock and Luke and Travis carried Lou Ellen to the car while Connor came over to apologize for his girlfriend's behavior. I nodded and said goodbye. Soon it was just Kai, Mila, Will and I with Nico over by the arch waiting for Will.

"Well, that was something new. Never knew Elli could punch so hard." Will laughed softly

"Yeah, well, since she never had any powers, she always trained harder to keep up with us. I'm pretty sure what Lou Ellen said is really gonna get to her. She has always felt bad about not have any powers." I sighed.

"Well, I must be off, can't keep Nico waiting. See you Monday!" he waved and walked off. He grabbed Nico's hand and disappeared into the pathway.

A/N: Yes, Lou Ellen is very much OC, but it must be that way for this story. I actually very much love her. And this is the very beginning of all the drama, so check back in another six months when I post another chapter. No, I'm just kidding. Now that I got past this part, I'm going to be working on this as much as possible.
