A/N: Oh my gods I am so sorry! I literally had all but the last two sentences written like, almost a month ago! I'm mostly moved into my dorm now and last night while my roommate and two of my other clustermates were eating dinner I told them all about how I was writing this and they all were so excited and proud that I was actually writing fan fiction and that spurred me on to at least post something this morning.

Chapter 7: Misunderstandings Clarified

Frank's POV:

'Oh gods this was a terrible idea. What if he doesn't want anything to do with me? I mean he moved out with Jason to get away from everyone right? And then after that IM the other day...' I think while standing on the front porch of the very person my thoughts are centered around, Tatiana gumming my thumb from her position cradled in my arms.

After laying Tatiana down for her nap that day I called up Fleecy and told her about what had happened. After taking one look at my face, I suppose she got all the answers she needed because next thing I knew she was giving me the address of Leo and Jason's home. It wasn't too far away, only about a day and a half's drive, so I packed up all of mine and Tati's stuff (always kept easily packable in case of a monster attack or some other reason to need to leave quickly) and as soon as she woke from her nap, I loaded her into the car and we took to the road, only stopping once on the side of the road for a quick nap (as well as once for a monster attack but that was quickly taken care of by shifting into a bear-which apparently Tati took great glee in if her bubbling laughter was anything to judge by).

Which leads me to now, where the door was now opening. The face behind the door however was not one I was expecting. Heck! Any face other than Leo's or Jason's would be one I hadn't been expecting! The door opened revealing Hazel. When she saw it was me she opened the door wider and stood there staring at me in shock.

"Who is it Haze? Oh- You know you've got a lot of nerve showing up here after all that! You couldn't even let us know about your wife or girlfriend or whatever? Are we just that distant of friends to you now? Do you not even think of us as friends anymore?" an angry Piper rattles on without even pausing for answers.

Finally I had had enough. "Please! If you just let me explain! It seems there's been some pretty big misunderstandings!" I shout in desperation.

"Misunderstandings! I'll give you 'misunder-'" Piper shouts as she starts to stomp out the front door before being cut off.

"What kind of misunderstandings?" Hazel cuts off her girlfriend as she also discreetly leans her arm against the doorframe, halting any forward progression of her girlfriend.

"Well for starters I'm not in any sort of relationship, nor have I had any sort of sexual relations with anybody," I stated firmly with a pointed look.

That certainly made Piper pause. "Then...how do you explain her?" she asked with palpable confusion. As I answered her Jason and Percy joined the two at the door, silently listening as well.

"She's my adopted year old demigoddess daughter that I'd found abandoned in a snow bank, and there was NO way I was just going to leave her there!" I answered. The four occupants of the doorway shared a silent conversation before simultaneously stepping aside to allow me entry with my daughter. I saw Tati's eyes glint and tried to give a shout in warning, but was half a second too late as suddenly everyone in the entryway-yes myself included-now looked to have had a rainbow drop on them. With a shout all the tie-dyed folks (including Nico, Reyna, and-surprisingly-Octavian who had just been coming down the stairs) turned to look at me with varying degrees of accusation. I sigh. "She's started experimenting with her powers. Often she'll mimic me with my animal shape shifting, but other times she's flooded, frozen, or burned sections of our house," I explain. At the confused and/or incredulous looks, I blink "Oh...I guess I forgot to mention, she's a daughter of Hecate. Hecate had set up a barrier to protect her from the cold when she saw little Tati's dad abandon her in the snow bank since she couldn't directly interfere. The barrier disappeared and was replaced with a note explaining everything…"I trail off at the end. I notice everyone staring at one spot, somewhere behind me so I turn around to see what's going on.

"So...she's...not your daughter?" Leo, who is standing in a doorway leading to another room, whispers, but it's so silent in the room it nearly sounds like a shout.

Swallowing past the lump in my throat I speak up. "No, not by blood, but legally she is. I took her directly to the nearest adoption center after I had found her," I choke out. Suddenly I feel my arms heating up and yelp before half-shifting my arms so that they are covered in thick reptilian skin as Tatiana bursts into flames in my arms-giggling maniacally, of course. "Really?! Two tricks in such a short time?!" to which I only receive more giggling, accompanied also by a few tentative chuckles, and some less tentative but more fond giggles from the male in front of me, who had come closer and extended his arms in silent question. Looking him up and down to be sure it really wouldn't do any damage, I nod and hand him Tati when he comes closer.

'They look so beautiful together,' I think as I get lost in my thoughts. Not long after I get broken out of them when I hear laughter and I notice Leo is blushing and it is then that I realize I'd actually vocalized my thoughts on his beauty. I find myself blushing fiercely myself at this revelation.

~break~

The three of us walk into the living room and sit on the couch while all the others seemed to disperse and silently leave to go elsewhere. We spoke for a long time until we finally understood why the other had left.

A/N: I know that wasn't the best ending, but I'm' hoping to make up for it in the next one by telling Leo's perspective of this? Hey if you have any ideas please feel free to share them because I'm coming towards the end of this story and am not sure how to finish it off.
