A Percy Jackson Fanfic

Oneshot

Disclaimer; I don't own PJO (Rick Riordan) or Invisible (Taylor Swift). I'd be very happy if I did.

AN: HEYA! Just your ordinary oneshot, inspired by your average song .. psh, Invisible rules. But seriously, why does Leo always stand in the corner while everyone gets all the spotlight? UNFAIR. I feel bad for the dude, considering he is one of my favorite characters and THE best character in TLH.

Enjoys(:


Why is he always so left out? Isn't he important to anyone? No one cares about him. At least, that's what he thinks. It's been like this his whole life. Someone always uses him to get what they want. He found if he turned to the jokes, they would make him more ... likeable. It worked, in a way. He was always the funny kid in every school, every city, every foster home. But in the end, he was always so ... so ... invisible. No one really saw him for who he was. Except his mother. But what does that matter? he tells himself, She's gone. She's never coming back. And when he thought he had finally found a place where he was welcomed. Where he had true friends, he finds out his best friend never really existed. Well, he did, but all the memories they shared, the jokes, the fun times ... fake. All fake. And his other best friend, the one he was secretly in love with, she was in love with his fake best friend.

And then he found Camp Half-Blood, and for once, he kind of ... stood out. He went on a quest, survived (that's always important, right?), met pretty girls (Thalia, Khione, ... not that any of them actually mattered to him anyway. He just wanted to make her jealous.) and people found out about his awesome fire abilities. But who got all the attention? Jason. For being Thalia's brother. For being the leader. For being the son of Zeus. For being a Roman. And Piper, for being Tristan McLean's daughter. For being "just an Aphrodite girl" who accomplished many things. For being brave. Strong. For being beautiful.

And so they set sail. They got to the Roman camp, rescued Percy, and - hey! He was one of the 7 in the prophecy!- But did it even matter? If Jason or Piper weren't enough, now he had Reyna, Hazel, Annabeth and Percy to be compared to. Reyna was the smart, witty, daughter of Apollo. Not a daughter of Minerva, but one of the smartest in the Legion. Hazel was a daughter of Demeter - no, wait, Ceres, - and a great fighter. Annabeth was smart, full of wisdom, known among heroes, a good fighter, good at anything. And Percy, well, Percy was just Percy. And how could he compete with the Saviour of Olympus? With any of the 6? Once again, he stood in the shadows while they all got the spotlight after defeating Gaea. They got mentioned in the books, myths were made about them, and him? Well, he was used to being ignored.

And here he is. Married. But nothing has changed. Why does he still feel so ... invisible?
