No one's POV

The council of the gods peered down at the two teens and their young baby with concerned faces. Or, in Ares' case a scowl as big as a titan.

"Oh, I don't know how they think they can do this... their just teenagers!" Hera exclaimed, shocking most of the council room. She had no hate towards either children, and the baby was simply a baby, how could she hate something so small unless it was the work of her husband's unfaithfulness.

"Have faith, Hera, they'll get the hang of it" Aphrodite smiled down happily at her grandson, he was so handsome. Though, not a single clue why his hair was blonde. Silena had black hair, Charles and his mother were both of another race- she could never remember which one- and one of her many lovers had black hair as well. Odd.

"Certainly, my son is very clever! And Kat obviously knows what she's doing" Said Hermes, he had stopped by to deliver a new spear to Ares and had just got caught up in his adopted grandson.

"But they are just so young, what will they do for jobs?" Questioned Hestia, all eyes flickered to her; it wasn't often she spoke, so they knew it was a very pressing matter.

"Just give them another couple days! I'm sure they'll get the hang of it" Aphrodite smiled at Zeus; he pondered for a minute before sighing.

"Alright, just another couple days, now on to more pressing matters..."

"MY SPEAR HAS A HOLE IN IT HEPHAESTUS! YOU DID THIS ON PURPOSE, FIX IT NOW!" Ares shouted standing up and glaring at the smug looking Olympian.

"You were saying, before you were rudely interrupted, Zeus?"

Chris' POV

"There we go, you've got all the skills to take good care of little Charlie" Kat smiled, tickling Charles' tummy with her dark skinned piano fingers.

"Thank you so much Kat, we really appreciate you helping us..." I told the nine year old, my lips stretched out into a warm smile. She had probably saved our asses from being beat by Beckendorf when we died from mal treating his only son.

"Yeah... Um, T-Thanks" I Clarisse scratched the back of her neck with the arm that wasn't holding Charles; she was looking everywhere but at Kat. I smiled at her, the apology probably tasted like acid on her tongue, but she loved Charles enough to thank Kat.

"Anytime, I put my number in your phone if you ever need me, don't be afraid to call" With that there was a light nock on the door, I was planning on driving Kat home, but I'm guessing that was her mother. When I opened the door I could honestly say I did not see this coming.

This woman had my features. She looked like me, and she looked like Kat. She had Kat's warm liquid caramel eyes, but my ears and nose. My lips, but Kat's darker skin tone.

Was this woman my mother?

No, no it couldn't be.

But, what if she was?

"Chris?" The woman asked lightly, her hand was on her heart and tears threated to fall from her eyes. I looked behind me to see Kat smiling up a storm and Clarisse looking like she was trying to solve a complex math question. I turned back to the woman, so this was my mother.

"Mom?" I asked, and she let out a sob then pulled me in for a long hug. It was so nice, and I felt so much safer. This was the woman who had tried to care for me, but who had loved me enough to let me go. My real mother. It was a great feeling.

"Oh, mijo, it's really you..." I pulled away and saw tears running down her beautiful face, I saw that she was only in her mid-thirties, with the only wrinkles on her face were smile lines- She was happy with her kids now, would she want me too?

I had asked myself that question so many times in the past, when I had considered trying to find her. My fear had always gotten the better of me, and I never ended up trying to find her. But by her tears I didn't think that she wanted to let me go just yet.

"Mami?" came a small voice from the back; Kat was addressing my mother... Her mother. She was my sister! I had known that she looked familiar; I was just too stupid to put the pieces together. "So, this is my big brother you talk about in your stories?" She had told stories about me? I knew she hadn't wanted to let me go, but had she loved me that much?

"Si, Kat. This is your brother Chris." She smiled at me and smoothed out my blonde locks carefully. Clarisse shuffled in the background, trying not to glance at me, or my mother. I had known Clarisse for a very long time, and I had never seen her feel awkward, ever.

"Mom, this is my girlfriend Clarisse and our adopted son, Charles" Clarisse's lip twitched lightly, as she addressed my mother. But Mum was having none of that, she walked over and gave Clarisse a big hug and then a kiss on the cheek.

My eyes widened in shock, I was worried that Clarisse was going to rip her head off, but she kept calm as my mother fawned over little Charles just as Kat had.

My mother, Kat, Clarisse and I talked for hours. We caught up, but she never pressured me into talking about anything I didn't want to. I found out I had two siblings, Kat and Jade. Also that her name was Natasha, and she was married but neither of her kids were his. When she began to mention Hermes I got a little worried though.

"So Chris how's your father?" Mom sat on the lumpy bed across from the equally lumpy couch that Clarisse and I were seated at.

"Oh you know, a lot of travel, I don't see him that often" I tried to brush it off and move on but I saw a look in her eyes that scared me a little bit. It was like she had this aura about her that not only calmed you, but when she wanted to make you scared at the same time.

"Shame, Jade and Kat haven't met him yet..." She said, I stared at her for a moment, my voice had just up and left, and Hermes was their dad too?

"Hold up, Kat and this Jade are Demi-gods too?" I thanked the gods for Clarisse's ability to never be shocked by anything- ever. She would see something or hear something strange, and then just move on with her life while others would gawk and be mentally scarred for life- like watching a zebra and a horse mate, I had seen that once at a petting Zoo and my brain had never worked the same way again.

"Yes, but our days of fun are long over... I'm in love with Dennis now, and he doesn't mind at all, right Kat?" Mum turned to Kat who was playing with Charles on the floor, she looked up and smiled.

"I'm lucky since I have two daddies, even if I don't meet daddy Hermes, I always have daddy Dennis"

This day just kept getting stranger and stranger.

Heya, I know this chapter is really sucky, but I have writers block and the ideas have just stopped. But this idea has been in motion of two chapters, so I finally got to reveal it. Next chapter will probably be In Clarisse's POV, now I want YOU to decide what happens in the next chapter.

They go visit beckendorf and Silena's parents to let them meet Charles

They go visit they're own parents to let them meet Charles

BACK TO CHB.

Thanks to the all of you for reading and sticking with this, I have no plans to abandon this story.
