Nico

Sally told us that they're getting a deviation from their flight, and trading the tickets to get ones that'll go to the Minneapolis airport. But right now they're trying to figure out his therapy.

"So I think I know the answer I'll get for this," Percy remarked. "But can Nico be with me when I go to therapy?"

"Um..." The nurse said as she looked at the form. "You know what, I'll see what I can do. Are you a part of the AL?"

"Yes!" He insisted, nodding his head. "A four year member."

"And is Nico?"

"Yes, a two year."

That was all she needed to know.

"I'm a part of the AL?" I asked my boyfriend, confused. I didn't know what that was.

"It's hospital code for a demigod." He explained to me as we waited on further response from his mom and Paul. They said they'd try to get a deviation. "Most people don't know what it means that work, it's a pointless question to them. But they hire certain people for each position that do know and yeah. Luke told me about it. When he was, you know, alive..."

I never knew Luke, so I never considered it.

"You miss him?"

He just nodded his head.

As I rubbed his back, he leaned into me and that's just how it was for a while. Until his mom and Paul showed up a bit later. But I might've fallen asleep by then.

Sally

He was alive. He was awake.

I mean, Nico wasn't awake, but Percy was. Nico looked ready to drop based off the bags under his eyes.

Percy didn't look much better, but he looked like he got sleep.

But he spent the next five minutes apologizing for scaring us and making us deviate and cut our honeymoon short.

And then I realized somebody was missing.

"Percy, where's your dad?"

They have his contact info. He should be here. And I guess that hadn't occured to my baby boy.

"Oh, um... I don't know." Percy told me, shrugging. "Nico said that it's just been him here because you guys were gone and I don't know. I haven't really thought about that."

That was a fun phone call.

Tyson

We we're out for dinner as a family tonight. Something that hasn't happened basically ever. Which kind of freaked out Triton and myself, because it hasn't happened in a long time according to him. At least twenty years.

And by as a family, I mean all of the Olympians were there. It might've had something to do with the war that just ended a few weeks ago. I think that's what it was.

We had gotten our appetizers when Dad's phone started ringing. Giving it a strange look, he hesitated to answer. It was Sally.

She's never called him before.

"Hello?" Dad said, very obvious confused. "Sally?"

Sally said something or another and I think she was mad.

"Woah, woah, relax." Dad said after a few seconds, even more confused. "What are you talking about? I haven't gotten any calls lately. What does this have to do with me?"

After telling him something, Dad nodded his head.

"Yeah, I haven't heard anything from Percy since he left Camp." He told his ex girlfriend, which is confusing all of us now. "Did he try calling?"

Dad's eyes went wide.

"Why would the Mayo Clinic call me?"

"Why is Percy at the Mayo Clinic?"

That had Apollo's attention. According to Apollo, aside his actual assistance, The Mayo was the best hospital in the world. It's half way across the country. There's no reason for Percy to be there.

He had to of seriously fucked himself up in order to be there. As in he wouldn't have lived otherwise.

Dad went pale.

"Dad?" Triton was now worried about what was going on. "Dad, what happened?"

"You're..." He was at a loss of words, which was something I've never seen happen. "You can't be serious, Sally. He was fine 3 weeks ago! Who... Are you sure?"

After a minute, Dad sighed.

"I'll be there in a little bit."

Poseidon

By the time I got to the Mayo, Sally and Paul we're leaving. They told me where they'd be staying and gave me his room number. Said Nico was still up there. He's about all that's keeping Percy sane right now.

That was another thing that I didn't know about my son. Him being gay, and on top of that, dating Nico.

It's okay, though. I was hoping that he wouldn't get with Annabeth, and he didn't. Most of Athena's kids are good kids. Annabeth isn't, though. She's very bossy, and she's also a bully.

Being they had to let Percy know I was here, I had to wait and I had messages from everyone at the dinner. I didn't tell them because there was kids and I didn't want to freak them out. Especially Tyson. I don't think he even knows what suicide is.

Unlike Tyson, though, Percy tried to kill himself last night. That's what got him here in the first place.

Zeus: What the fuck, brother? You can't just up and leave like that. What's going on? Is Perseus okay?

Me: I'm sorry, it was an emergency. Percy's in the Mayo Clinic right now, I'm waiting to be let into his room. I don't know how he stands right now, but according to Sally, he tried to kill himself last night. Hopefully that can answer your question.

Looking into his room, there was three people. Percy and Nico we're sitting on the bed, Percy anxious for one reason or the next as he held Nico's hand.

"Was this planned?" The doctor in the room asked Percy.

"Um... No." He told them, just seeming like a completely different person now. "I mean, I figured I'd do it eventually. But I didn't plan on like when or how. I just had to take my meds because I'm supposed to before bed and I just had an impulse, and took too many. It wasn't like... I mean, I've been suicidal before. I have been for years. But for a long time I just kind of said that it was dumb and I can't do that to my mom. She deserved better than me but she deserved way better than to lose me."

"And what made that change?"

"She got married." Percy was pretty calm about that. "They were home. They were on their honeymoon. I just... Stuff was hard, is hard, and I knew he'd be there for her because half the time I can't be anymore because of the fucking camp and it's dumb but I don't have a choice."

"Yes, it has written down here that both of you are Greek." The doctor goes on and looks at something in his clipboard. "We're you involved in the most recent incident?"

My son nodded his head. That spiked his anxiety.

"It's okay, I'm not going to make you recall everything about it." He assured Percy, who then relaxed. "it's just a note for later. But I received a message saying that you have a new visitor."

"I have a... Who would visit this late at night?" Percy was confused. "I'm from New York."

"It's your father."

"Oh."

That was about all that he said. He didn't sound too happy that I was here. Surprised, sure. But that was the extent of it.

"Would you like to see him?"

He thought about it for a minute.

"No... I uh... Not really."
