Luke/Percy's POV

"Luke!"

I groaned, rolling over.

"Get up!"

'I think your sister wants you up' Order said in my head.

"No!" I replied, my voice hoarse.

"Don't make me pull off the-"

"Let me sleep in for once!" I groaned "I'm always up early"

'You think I can do the contacts while my eyes are closed?' I asked in my head.

'I mean, the motion is clicking so I believe it should be-'

I clicked my fingers slowly under the covers and then opened my eyes.

I grabbed my glasses from the night stand and put them on.

I looked around confused.

There were so many people in my room.

By the looks of it the seven, my old band members, Reyna and Mayla.

All crowded in a small room.

"Um, what are you doing in my room?" I asked, and looked at my alarm clock "At 7 in the morning?!?!"

"I told you not to interrupt him!" I heard Andy snap, pushing past the demigods.

"Well we haven't seen our friend since what happened" I heard Annabeth snap.

"You friend has a job and hasn't had a good night sleep in years" Andy said, "Now get out his room or I will kick you out"

"But he doesn't mind, does he?" Mayla asked.

Everyone looked at me, making me really uncomfortable.

"Um...I-I..."

'Now they're playing your flaw boy! Don't let it control you' Order said in my head.

Andy also gave me a look which would have said the same thing.

"...I actually do mind" I said, shocking them all "I haven't slept in a very long time and I only slept tonight because Apollo got Morpheus to get me to sleep. I also have a job I need to do"

"Well, I guess" Annabeth said.

"And its really rude to barge in and wake someone up" I said "I have a lot of things to do as my album has been delayed by two weeks, and I can't spend it all with you guys"

I looked at them.

"Now isn't the right time" I said "I will tell you when I can talk-"

"But you were injured! You looked almost dead" Piper said. 

"That's because I was fighting Order on my own now wasn't it?" I snapped.

"Luke" Andy said but I ignored him.

"We helped you though" Mayla said softly.

"You try having no-"

"Percy!"

I snapped my head to Andy.

"Calm down, you don't need this emotional stress on you" Andy said and then looked at the demigods around him "This is what Chaos meant by emotional stress which could trigger PTSD; but it's not by his job its by his friends"

"Andy-"

"Please leave, I will not say it again" Andy said, cutting Mayla off "Luke has a job to do and unfortunately for most of you it doesn't involve you"
