Will's Point
I stood there holding the paper Jason had given me while watching him and Nico vanish into the crowd
"You're hurt!" Dad said bring me back to my senses.
"Uh? Oh yeah" I said as I looked down at my arm to my elbow bleeding a little, it was also red and it had started to swell.
"Let me have a look at it" Dad said
"Dad, I'm sure it's-" I started to say but the moment he touched my arm I winced in pain and pulled back
"Will. I barely touched it" Dad said with concern
"Maybe we should get you to a hospital" Percy said
"Excuse me" a woman said as she walked up to me.
"I couldn't help but over hear what happened" She said.
"Who are you?" I asked
"My name is Euterpe" Euterpe said.
"Euterpe? From Muse industries?" Dad asked
"Hello Apollo, it's good to see you" Euterpe said with a smile
"You know her?" I asked looking at my dad.
"Know her? I use to work with her. She amazing with music, especially the flute." Dad said.
"Coming from the guy who may as well have invented music" Euterpe said
"I'm not that good" Dad said but his smile said yes that's me.
"Anyway. I heard your boss fire you and I wanted to offer you a job" Euterpe said
"You want to hire me?" I asked
"We only care about talent at Muse industries and you are bursting with it." Euterpe said
"How about we take your business card and get back to you?" Dad asked before looking at me
"I'm sorry I got caught up with old times, you need to go to the hospital" Dad said
"Oh! I'm sorry I didn't realize you were hurt. Did you want me to give you a ride?" Euterpe asked
"I don't want to bother you, besides we have a ride" I said
"I wouldn't count on it" Percy said pointing to our ride as they drove away.
"Hades must have told him to leave" Percy said with spite
"Can you take five people?" I asked
"Five?" Dad asked
"Jason and Nico left" Dad said.
"Will's friends are here" Percy said
"Yeah, where are they?" I asked as I looked around. It took a few moments before I saw them walking our way.
"Hey" Cecil said with a grin. A mischievous he always had when he had tricked someone or done something he shouldn't have.
"What happened?!" Lou Ellen asked as she saw my elbow
"That doesn't look good" Cecil said as he also noticed
"Yeah, it's a long story. I'll tell you on the drive" I said
"Where did you two go?" I asked
"How about we all exchange stories on the drive?" Cecil asked
"Good Idea" I said as my elbow began to badly throb
"Where is our ride?" Lou Ellen asked
"They drove off" Percy said
"Wait, What?!" Cecil asked
"How are we supposed to-" Cecil started to ask before Dad cut in
"This woman here alhas offered to take us were we need to go" Dad said with a smile
"You definitely need to explain what happened" Lou Ellen said.
Euterpe led us all to her car and after we got in I turned to Cecil and Lou Ellen.
"I think it's best if you start" I said and they both exchanged a look of worry before they begin their story
"We had walked outside talking about how happy we were for you" Cecil
"And how brave it was of you to come out the way you did" Lou Ellen added
"And that's when some random reporter came over to us asking if we really know you and when we said yes" Cecil said with a sigh
"That when we were swarmed by a whole bunch of reporters all asking about you. It was only because of Cecil we fot away from them" Lou Ellen said
"How'd did you get away?" I asked
"I made a convincing look of pure shock and said I saw Beyoncé and they all went ran in the direction I had pointed" Cecil said with a grin.
"That dose explain" I said with a small laugh.
"So now it's your turn. Where did Nico and Jason go, why did our ride leave and who is the lady driving us to the hospital?" Cecil asked
"And how did you hurt yourself?" Lou Ellen added
I took a deep breath and slowly explained everything that had happened.
"That guy deserves a good punch in the face" Cecil said
"How could someone be so cruel?" Lou Ellen asked
"Hades has never been the nicest to Nico" Percy said
"We should do something" Cecil said
"No" Dad said
"No? Look at what he did to your son!" Cecil said angrily
"I know but he not someone you should cross he unfortunately has a lot of power and it could put you in more danger then it could help" Dad said
"Do you think Nico and Jason are going to be ok?" I asked
Dad went silent which honestly worried me but then Percy spoke up.
"They'll be fine, I've known them for a long time and they know how to handle themselves" Percy said making me feel better.
"I can't believe he fired you just because your gay, what a way to find out your boss is a homeopathic" Lou Ellen said
"Actually I knew that from the start. And I think that why it took Nico and me so long to admit we liked each other. I wss worried he wouldbe like his father and I think he was scared of that with me as well" I said
"So is that why your song was about a girl?" Cecil asked
"Yeah. He told me he wouldhire me only if I changed all hims into hers" I said
"Why did you even consider working with him when you already knew his views on gays?" Lou Ellen asked
"I had to, I need a way to pay for moms hospital bills" I said
"Besides, I'm glad I did" I said with a smile
"Why?" Cecil asked
"Because I some good friends and gained a boyfriend" I said with a smile
