    "I'm sorry Percy, please forgive me." He said before backing away and running. Percy only looked confused.

   "What did that man mean? He never hurt me, or did anything." He looked confused.

  "Don't worry about it. We are staying the night here, I don't want to risk being out at this time. Let's go inside." I said. I climbed into a bed and Percy lied down next to me. He was out like a light, and to be honest, so was I.

    Percy and I sat on the beach. It was around 1 in the after noon and we were going in an hour, but Percy wanted to go swimming.

   "Percy, I have to tell you something." I said. I had to tell him about Piper and I before he comes back and talks to her about her and I getting married one day.

  "What is it Jasy?" He asked looking up at me with sparkling sea green eyes that make me happy. I couldn't hide the tears.

   "Piper and I aren't gonna get married." I said while I looked to the water that sparkled under the light of the sun.

    "Why not?" He asked, sitting on my lap and leaning his back against my chest.

    "She is in love with someone else." I sobbed and Percy hugged me.

   "She mean lady, if she doesn't love you, than who cares? You deserve better!" He claimed and I smiled through my tears.

   "Thank you Percy. I needed that. Now, let's head back to camp." I smiled and Percy jumped up, excited to see other people again. It has only been a few days, but he already trusts us so much. He was so afraid of us but now he trusts us and loves us like family.

    We walked into the highway, the side of the road, what? I'm not going to teach this kid to walk in the middle of the road. We walked until a car came into view, and it looked like it was heading for half-blood hill. It slowed right by us, stopping at a complete stop.

    "Are you guys heading to half-blood hill?" The father asked there was a 13 year old boy sitting in the back with headphones on.

   "Yes we are sir." I said, holding Percy close to me.

   "We'll give you a ride. If you are fine with that." He said. I looked at Percy, as if asking if he wanted to go. He nodded and smiled.

    "Yes please. Thank you." I said.

   "I'm Mr. Secret, by the way. And my son in the back is Aidan. What are your names?" The man now identified as Mr. Secret asked.

    "My name is Jason, and the little boy is Percy, my brother." I said, to make sure he doesn't think I'm his father or anything. He raised a eyebrow.

    "You two don't look like your related. I'm a son of Hephaestus, my son is a descendant of Hephaestus and son of Aphrodite." He explained. I nodded, shocked. Aphrodite has a child with a son of her husband. That must be rare.

   "I'm a son of Jupiter, Roman. And Percy is a son of Poseidon. We aren't really related. Percy is meant to be the same age as me but lady Hecate casted a spell on his and made him 5 years old again." I explained, knowing he wasn't paying attention cause Aidan was playing with him.

    "Ah. Now come on. Hop in the front, Percy can sit in the back with Aidan." He said and nodded. I opened the door for Percy and lifted him in, putting the seatbelt on for him before shutting the door. I hopped into the front and buckled up. We had started driving.

     "What did Percy do to have Hecate cast a spell on him? She is usually passive and doesn't care for demigods." He questioned. I explained what happened. He nodded as if he understood.

    "Why were you out of camp? Did something happen? It seems like you just left than returned." He asked. Wow he asked a lot of questions.

    "Percy was kidnapped yesterday, but he wasn't hurt. It was a guy named Luke, he is on our side but he needed to warn me about something and stealing Percy would have been the only way to get me." I explained. It was a few minutes of silence, other than Aidan and Percy playing in the back, talking about random things.

    "Are you alright? You look like you have been crying." He asked. I blushed and instinctively raised my hands to cover my face and he chuckled.

   "Um I'm good." I said, but he gave me a look as if to tell him why. He looked back to the road before I sighed.

    "I caught my girlfriend cheating on me, and that was only a little bit after I found out Percy was gone. I was mad and upset. I still don't understand why she cheated on me." I sighed and rubbed my eyes. He nodded as if he understood.

    "I've been there. But I'm married to an amazing woman, and she is loyal. Now you know who you can trust in a relationship. I'm still friends with the woman the cheated on me, she said she didn't love me anymore. I thanked her for her honesty, after I caught her cheating." He chuckled. I smiled. I looked back at Percy, seeing him smile.

   "Do you like him? I mean before he was turned to a kid." He said.

   "What?" I asked with a blush, a very deep blush blush. He chuckled.

   "Did you have a crush on him?" He repeated. I blushed.

   "I did like him like that at one point. But I had a girlfriend, and he has a girlfriend. And he has always been my best friend. I didn't want to ruin that. And I didn't think he liked guys also." I explained.

   "I think you two would be cute together, when he turns back to normal of course." He chuckled.

   "Either way, he has a girlfriend." I protested. This made him laugh.

    "Then wait. It took my wife 3 years to fall in love with me, 4 years to break up with her boyfriend. All I can say is be patient. If he feels the same, then things will work out itself. If the fates want you two to end up together, then it will happen. Maybe his girlfriend will break up with him." He shrugged.

    We eventually made it to half-blood hill, luckily no monster coming after a son of Poseidon and son of Jupiter. Everyone but Mr. Secret got out.

   "My son knows everything he needs to know. And he is different from Aphrodite children. I wish you luck." He says to me and winks while I blush.
