Lucky

Poseidon's POV

It had been a while since one of my daughters had gotten married, so I had to make it special somehow. I had already prepared a gift, but let's just say that, Zeus is going to be REALLY made at me, maybe even Hephaestus. But, when is he not.

While we're talking about Hephaestus, Hephaestus had wanted to create something for HIS son. The one he had with the woman he couldn't and can't stop talking about. I could see why Hephaestus had a thing for Esperanza Valdez, she loved to build and she was very kind.

Sadly, she didn't live for too long and Hephaestus went through a small period of depression. He would still keep an eye on Leo, as he traveled from foster home to foster home.

Hephaestus was talking to Leo, clapping him on the back a couple times. He took a swig of his wine glass and smiled at his son. Leo chuckled lightly took a small sip before continuing with his conversation. I smiled, Hephaestus and Leo reminding me of how Percy, Charlotte, and I were.

I looked around for two of my favorite children. I had already seen one, Tyson was playing outside with his girlfriend Ella. I looked for her when I suddenly heard her laugh. Her laugh was adorable, reminding me of Sally Jackson.

I was getting reminded of a lot of things tonight... gods.

I pushed through the crowd where I found Charlotte laughing along with the other Heroes of Olympus. "Charlotte, dear. I have something for you, as a wedding gift..."

"Dad?" Charlotte asked, placing her hand gently on mine. "Hephaestus, bring the boy..." I called for Hephaestus. He brought Leo over and made him stand by Charlotte. He stood by and smiled up at me. He moved Leo's hands into a specific position, like if he was going to hold something.

I waved my hands around Leo's hands and a puff of light blue mist exploded on the spot. After a couple coughs from the Heroes and Olympus, the mist cleared.

Charlotte gasped, covering her mouth.

"Ma! Pa!" cried a small voice.

"Litleo!" Leo and Charlotte cried. Leo hugged Litleo and Charlotte tightly. "Leonidas Milo Valdez, don't leave me! Ever again! Okay?" Charlotte chuckled, tears falling. Litleo giggled and hugged Charlotte.

"Thank you, Dad..." Charlotte smiled. "Gwampaa!" Litleo cheered. I pat his head, softly and lovingly. Leo smiled up at Hephaestus "Gracias Papa..."

Thanks Dad...

Hephaestus understood and smiled down at Leo, rubbing his shoulder. "Ah! 'Buelito!" Litleo laughed.

Ah! Grandpa!

"Enough mushy stuff! Time to finish this party!" Charlotte and Leo whooped. Litleo cheered.

Everyone hurried to the dance floor. Some were slow dancing, others were rocking out, others were REALLY enjoying themselves.

Cake Time!

Leo and Charlotte were standing at the cake. "Psst! Leo!" Charlotte called to Leo, who had his head turned. He looked at her and flinched.

"You've got a little something on your nose..." she snickered, moving her hand away from Leo's nose and licking her finger. Leo chuckled, playfully evil.

"Valdez! You're gonna get it!" Leo laughed, dipping his finger on a piece of the cake, getting a dollop of frosting.

Charlotte yelped and tried to run away.

They chased each other around the party, laughing, leaving everyone else to stand and watch. After Charlotte got a dollop of frosting on her face, she stood up and walked back with Leo, licking frosting from her mouth.

They walked back, laughing and looking at each other lovingly. And they finally got to cutting the cake.

Blue cake! Yes!

Everyone was full, enjoying the cake.

Thank you, Sally Jackson.

After The Party

Everyone was walking away, the other demigod campers returning to Camp. The Heroes of Olympus and Litleo, however had decided to stay and chat for a bit at their personal Big House.

I stopped Charlotte, before she left and asked to speak with her. Leo looked back, holding Litleo, but smiled at me and continued walking.

"Charlotte, I'm so proud of you and your brothers. You demigods have been through a lot, mainly because of Zeus... But don't tell him I told you," I chuckled. "I would like to give you all a special place on Olympus. All you demigods, those who have passed and those who have yet to come. Hephaestus and I have designed and created a mystical board on Olympus that allows you to write the names of demigods on it. Let's just say, they'll have their names somewhere on Olympus... And when the time comes, you can elect someone to take your place in writing down names of the future demigods. We will also make sure that all of our demigod children are found and claimed. It's the least we could do," I chuckled nervously.

"Wait. What about Zeus?"

"Ah, he'll forgive me later!" I chuckled, rubbing the back of my neck.

She jumped up and down and tackled me in a hug, causing me to stumble slightly. "Thank you, Dad! I love you!" she laughed. I laughed and ruffled her hair carefully. "Now, go on, enjoy the rest of your night..."

"I'll get you that list! Pronto! Asap! I swear on the Styx!" she promised. I laughed as she ran off towards her house.

"Bye Charlotte. I love you!" I smiled softly. I disappeared in a puff of light blue mist, the last thing I could hear was about 10 people laughing and celebrating loudly and a baby cheering.

And so...

I waited on Olympus, getting an earful from Zeus, but eh whatever!
