𝕻𝖊𝖗𝖈𝖞 𝖜𝖆𝖘 𝖊𝖘𝖙𝖆𝖙𝖎𝖈. He had just received a call from Aunt Sally declaring she, Uncle Paul, Estelle, Jason (Jason!) were coming to visit on Friday to 2 Sundays after. 1 week! So waking up on Tuesday morning he was extremely excited. This emotion was similarly exhibited in his siblings as they all ate breakfast. Uncle Charlie and Aunt Reneé had already left for work. "Can't keep the bookstore waiting," Percy recollected Aunt Reneé's words.

"Hey," Percy uttered through the comfortable silence, successfully acquiring the attention of his younger siblings. "How 'bout we go help Aunt Reneé at the bookstore after school today? We might also be able to locate Greek versions of our textbooks while we are there too."

His siblings nodded excitedly both of them adoring books (that were of course in Greek and easier to read). That made his siblings liked among the Athena kids who constantly chatted about different matters with them. Percy glimpsed over at the yellow clock perched on the wall. 6:45. They had to get going.

He voiced this to the other individuals in the room and they all scrambled up the stairs to brush their teeth and get their shoes on. They put on their heavy jackets, as it was very cold outside (30°F). They trekked out the door and got into Bella's truck. Bella being sensible turned the heat on blast. Bella drove very carefully towards Forks High. Slow? Yes. Safe? Absolutely. Bella pulled into an empty spot a few yards away from the school.

The trio sat in silence absorbing the heat for a bit. Before long, however, they had to get out as Bella declared and I quote 'We're wasting my gas. Everybody out.' They got out of the car the frostiness stinging Percy's warm cheeks. They stood like that for a while talking about Estelle and how cute she was on the phone (a phone made monster-proof with the help of the Athena and Hephaestus cabins.)

They didn't notice a black car racing towards them or a frantic Tyler trying to navigate it away from its collision course.

Edward Cullen however noticed from across the lot. The trio turned a little too late as the car was virtually on top of them. Their eyes widened as they held hands, about to vapor travel, but before they could Edward was in front of them he shoved the three down and stopped the automobile, creating a dent in the passenger side. Harry, in his crouched position, leaned back against Bella's car and slid down into a sitting position his legs pulled to his chest.

Edward made eye contact with him. Harry gazed at him. 

Before long teachers, students and paramedics alike huddled around the group. Paramedics asked if there were any injuries, and Edward the tattletale told them that Percy had hit his head and may have a concussion and Harry had a scaped knee while Bella made it out unscathed.

The three were now in the back of an ambulance despite telling them they were fine on their way to a hospital. See Percy had a thing about hospitals. He loathed them and the only two "hospitals" he would even think about entering were in Scottland and Long Island. Even then they made him queasy. 

Entering the hospital he was tense. Before long Bella had put a hand on his shoulder and he relaxed some in the comfort of her presence. 

They had been waiting there for about 10 minutes when a strangely familiar person entered the room. This person had similar golden eyes to the Cullen-Hales. "Hello, I am your physician, Carlisle Cullen. How are we today?" He said looking down at the green clipboard in his hand. "A concussion huh? How is your eyesight?"

"Fine."

"Are you dizzy or nauseous?"

"No."

Dr. Cullen then put the clipboard down and felt his head checking for any bruising. No bruising. Good.

"Ok. You're goo-"

But Percy was gone. Looking for Bella and Harry. He heard voices down the hall and stopped. Inside the room were Harry, Bella, and Tyler all talking to Uncle Charlie. 

"Uncle Charlie, Percy, Bella, and I are fine. You don't need to take his licenses." Percy heard Harry say definitely.

"You could have died." 

"But we didn't." Harry retorted. 

"Let him keep his licenses."

"What would your parents say if you had died huh? We are responsible for you. We don't want you to get hurt."

Harry went silent. Their parents were a sore subject for all of them. True they might not have known their parents, but they were hassled in the Wizarding World a lot because of The Boy Who Lived stuff. Their parent's death was famous. It doesn't help that Harry remembers the entire occurrence. 

Neither Bella nor Percy remembered it, but Harry dreamt about it constantly.

Percy could see Harry stiffen. His eyes were closed and his hands were curled into fists.

"Yea? Well, you did a pretty horrible job at protecting us." With that, Harry shoved past everyone and out the door. 

"Harry wait-" Uncle Charlie tried, desperately knowing he screwed up, but Harry was gone. Uncle Charlie looked helplessly at Bella and Percy. 

"Let him go. He needs to calm down a bit and he won't talk to anybody until he is calm." Bella said quietly. 

"Um..what just happened?" Tyler piped up from his seat on the stretcher, his arm was wrapped in a sling. 

Harry was irate. He wandered through the white halls of the hospital. Stopping in a few rooms with other patients and talking to them. Talking about common things such as their name, favorite color, and so on. Seeing the patient's smile made him happy beyond conviction. His anger gradually melted away as he conversed with others.

He thought about when Hermione was in the hospital wing when she got petrified. Or when Ron was in with a broken leg. When Percy was poisoned by Luke in their first year at Camp.

He missed Annie.

He was surprised when he made a left turn around a corner and he ran smack into the Cullen-Hale family.'

He's only going to cause trouble for our family.'

'Rosalie!'

'It's true though.'

'Alice, what have you seen recently?'

'Nothing. They are too blurry to make out details.'

'Edward. Calm down.'

"Um..excuse me, but may I get into that room please?" He asked timidly as one of the larger Cullens stood in front of the entrance, arguing in low voices.

"Oh. Of course." They watched as he moved into the room. He asked the little girl what her name was. "Daisy." 

"Hello, Daisy how old are you?"

The girl held up 5 fingers. "I'm five, but I'll be six in June."

Harry took the stool next to the bed. By this time the Cullens had crowded around the door frame and watched the interaction. Still, arguing quietly. They watched as Harry conversed with the girl and passed her a stuffed dolphin, which she referred to as Ralph. "Well, Daisy it was a delight talking to you."

"You too mister." She said with the biggest smile on her freckled face. Harry held out his hand and they shook hands. Harry then got up and departed silently striding past the Cullens rather quickly in their opinion. 

Harry made his way back to his clinic room. He was calm now. The door was shut slightly so he knocked quietly. The door swung open to reveal Charlie. As soon as he saw Harry he tackled him into a hug. Harry felt tears stream down his face.

He felt loved something they never gave him. Just a dusty cupboard under the stairs.

Harry was shaken out of his reflections by Aunt Reneé "Come on let's go home." 

Coming home Harry trudged up the stairs. He flopped down on the bed after showering and brushing his teeth and immediately fell asleep.

"Y'know this would be easier if you talked to me," Harry said in Biology class on Wednesday. They were supposed to be taking turns reading the text, but Edward would not for the love of the stars read the dam book. Aunt Reneé had been so considerate as to bring home Greek versions of their texts yesterday. So his dyslexia was not horrible.

Edward stayed silent. Harry huffed and began reading again. In all reality, Edward liked to listen to Harry talk. It was somehow soothing even if he was reading about blood testing and DNA. 

Harry was not having it. "Read. Or I'm going to read in my head instead of aloud." Harry said turning back to his book.

"Why are you reading in Greek anyway?" Edward asked pointedly.

Harry was silent for a few beats before he said "It's easier to read than English. Now read." Edward commenced reading not wishing to anger the boy any further.

Percy looked at his sister who was listening to Jessica read. She looked extraordinarily bored. When she made eye contact with Percy he smirked and she rolled her eyes.

It was the end of the day and Percy was exhausted. All he wanted to do was go home and watch Nemo with Harry and Bella.

Of course what he didn't expect to see when he got home was Nico DiAngelo and his bright boyfriend, Will Solace sitting at the table, waiting for them. Charlie and Reneé weren't home from work yet. 

"Hey Neeks what's up?" Bella asked when they entered hugging the two boys who gladly hugged back. 

"Well..you see..camp kinda needs you guys." He said with pursed lips. "A cyclops with powerful water powers have invaded the camp. It said it was looking for you guys."

"Okay. Calm down."

Harry grabbed a Post-it and scrawled messily in his, haste a note to Charlie and Reneé. He stuck it on the fridge and with that, they joined hands and Harry apparated out.

Edward Cullen stared as 5 people disappeared with a pop. He had to tell the others.

When Charlie and Reneé came home to an empty house and a note in the fridge they knew what happened. They also knew they would probably not see the kids until tomorrow.

A little one-eyed issue see you tomorrow morning. Love you.

-Harry, Bella, Percy

P.S. Nico and Will say hi.
