Chapter 8

A/N well, I finally got this done, It took a little while, but I hope you like it. 

Percy's point of view

I was at Lisa's and we were still absorbing the latest surprising news we had received. At her most recent doctors appointment she had found out that not only was she pregnant, but she was apparently pregnant with twins. Of course that news surprised us both but that didn't change the fact that I was going to do everything I could to help her. Especially now that I knew we would not just be having one child but two. I may not have romantic feelings for her, but I still care about her so I want her and our children to be safe. I also want our children to have a good childhood before they will most likely get dragged into the dangerous life of a demigod.

I still plan to tell Lisa about what I really am, but I'm probably going to put that off a little longer now that we had been shocked once again after learning that she would be having twins. I hadn't told my parents yet that I was going to be a father, I wasn't sure when I was going to do it either. I wasn't sure how they would react to that news, Apollo was the only person I had told, and I mainly told him because I knew he would know if I lied to him. What he had said after I told him had helped me though.

After I left Lisa's I returned to Olympus, and I was looking forward to the evening when Apollo and I would be going out. We had planned it yesterday. This would technically be our first date and considering I'd had a crush on him for years, I was happy about that. Especially since I had thought it was something that might never happen.

When it was time for us to go, I met Apollo at his palace. Smiling at me he asked, "'How are you doing today Percy?"

I replied, "Good Apollo," Although the news that Lisa would be having twins was still pretty fresh on my mind, and it was still sinking in for me that I was going to have two children. I tried to shove those thoughts out of my head for the moment and focus on the extremely hot god in front of me. We shared one quick kiss before we went to the restaurant we had chosen, down in New York. We walked into the building hand in hand not caring what anyone else thought about us. Once we were seated we ordered our food and once the waiter had walked away we began talking again.

Now that I wasn't having training with him anymore we had to find other ways to see each other. We weren't really having problems with that considering that although we are kind of busy we can still make enough time to see each other. We talked about what we had been doing since the last time we talked, not much had changed. before too long our food came and we stopped talking until the waiter left again.

After we finished eating, and paid the bill, we left again. Once we got back to Olympus we were holding hands and smiling at each other. I was happy that we were together now, even if we were still seeing other people, and not just each other. I kissed him again, and he returned it. We stayed like that until we had to separate for air.

Soon after that kiss our lips met once again.

If someone had asked me a couple years ago what I thought I would be doing now, I certainly wouldn't have guessed that I would be a god, much less that I would be dating Apollo or that I would be having twins with a woman that I didn't have romantic feelings for. My life has certainly changed a lot over the past few years. I'd gone from happy with Annabeth, to miserable after she betrayed me, to happy again now that I had moved on from her and found someone else.

A month went by as I continued to visit Lisa often, and also often went on dates with Apollo. I would still sometimes get with other people, but I wasn't doing it as much now that I had started dating Apollo. Today I decided that it is time I tell Lisa the truth about what I am and what that will mean for our children. I teleported to her apartment building, and went in. She let me into her apartment and then I said, "How are you doing?"

She replied, "I'm fine,"

"There's something I want to tell you, you should probably sit down for this,"

she seemed curious and sat down on her couch.

I sat down as well, knowing that it would probably take a while to explain everything that I intended to.

I started by asking her, "How much do you know about Greek mythology?"

"Not much, I remember learning about it in school, but I don't remember much of it. I think I remember the names of some of the gods and heroes, but not much else. Why? what does that have to do with you?"

I looked at her, "I brought it up because those gods are real, and I am one of them,"

"What! That's not possible,"

"It is very possible Lisa, I understand that it's hard for you to believe, but I'll prove it to you if I have to,"

she was staring at me, I wasn't sure what she was thinking, was she just having a hard time believing me, or did she think I was nuts? I didn't know yet so I continued trying to explain. I considered ways that I could use my powers to show her that I was telling the truth without freaking her out more than she probably already was.

I thought about a few ideas before settling on one. I knew it was getting close to dinner time, so I decided to use a power that all gods have, most of them just don't bother using it. Hestia is known for using it the most , but she's not the only one who can.

Changing the subject for a moment I asked, "Do you want something to eat?

She was surprised by my sudden topic change, but she quickly got over it and seemed a bit relieved and agreed. I hesitated for a moment, but I knew I needed her to believe me if I was going to continue helping her, and keep her safe.

I made sure the mist wouldn't obscure what I was about to do, and then I willed a dish of what I knew was one of her favourite foods to appear in my hands, that food was Mac and cheese. Not the cheap stuff you make from a box, it was legitimately good mac and cheese. Anyway, I could tell she was shocked, because she seemed to be staring at the dish that had basically appeared out of nowhere. After a few moments she took the dish when I handed it to her. She was silent as she took a bite of the food. She was probably still trying to wrap her head around everything I had told her.

I couldn't blame her for finding it all hard to believe. from what I knew about her she wasn't a religious person, so she didn't believe in any sort of higher power. I knew learning the truth about me would be hard for her to take in, but I thought she would be able to handle it. Right now I wasn't so sure.

As those thoughts were going through my head, she was still eating, perhaps not sure what to say yet. I also sat there in silence, kind of concerned about what she would say once she does speak up. I was hoping I hadn't freaked her out with everything I said, and how I tried to prove I was telling the truth. I wanted to continue helping her, and I might not be able to if she stops trusting me.

Lisa's POV

I was shocked when the man who I'd slept with multiple times claimed to be a Greek god. I mean, sure he was hot, I won't deny that, but gods aren't real. Certainly not the Greek gods. They were just stories from thousands of years ago that the people of the time used to explain things they didn't understand. Yet when he made a dish of one of my favourite foods appear out of seemingly nowhere, I started to think he might be telling the truth.I couldn't come up with any other explanation for how he had just done that.

I thought over everything he said as I ate the food. He said he had only become a god a couple years ago, before that he was a demigod, the child of a god and a mortal. I put the pieces together and realized that if he was telling the truth, our children would be demigods. He had also told me what he was supposedly the god of. I put another forkful of mac and cheese in my mouth as I considered everything he had said and done so far. I decided that as much as I wanted to deny it everything he told me had to be the truth. I told him, "I believe you, but why have I never seen any of the monsters or gods before now?"

He replied, it's because there is something called the mist that prevents mortals from seeing things as they really are. Most mortals can't handle knowing the truth so we keep it hidden from them. I believed that you would be able to handle knowing the truth, and it seems I was right,"

I nodded, and to confirm what I already suspected I said, "So based on what you said, will our children be demigods?"

He nodded, "Yes lisa, our children will be demigods. I will help you as much as I can when it comes to raising them, and do everything I can to keep you safe." He explained that eventually monsters would find our children, so they would eventually need to be trained to protect themselves. He also mentioned a summer camp where they could be trained once they are teens.

Honestly I was still wrapping my head around the fact that Percy was a god, but I was just thankful that he was going to continue to help me. Having twins, and then raising them wasn't going to be easy. It would have been hard enough to take care of one child but two would be even harder. I was still kind of worried to be honest since I wasn't sure I could be a good mother. Maybe with Percy's help I can do it.

Percy's Point of view

I was thankful that Lisa believed me since I wanted to be able to help her and our children once they are born. We talked for a little while after that, since now that she knew the truth, Lisa had many questions for me about my past and the gods in general. I answered some of them before it was time for me to leave again.

I went back to Olympus and I was a bit surprised when Apollo showed up. We didn't have anything planned for today, but we went inside my palace anyway to have some privacy. That's when things started to get heated. It started out with just kissing, but that quickly progressed to more. I don't think anyone knows about our relationship yet, I knew I hadn't told anyone,and as far as I knew Apollo hadn't either. It wouldn't really bother me if someone finds out, I really don't care anymore what everyone else thinks, I was happy with my life now, so if someone else disapproves of anything I've done I really don't care.
