Nico

Now that the war with Gaea was over the demigods from camp Halfblood had little to do. Since they had no "quests" no "save the world from evil" they had much more time for other such as romance and dating and, well, you get the idea right? Anyway I hated most of those things because I could never have them. I was madly in love with Percy Jackson, but Percy was not gay and was taken by Annabeth Chase, and what was even worse he thought that I was in love with Annabeth. He was so oblivious.

Percy

I was walking down to the archery range when I saw a pale boy with raven black hair. "Nico?" I inquired. "Oh um Percy, I-I was um g-going to the woods." Nico managed to stutter before turning around and walking back to his cabin. But before he could leave I muttered under his breath "Oh no you don't" and grabbed Nicos wrist. Nico flinched and said "Let go Percy" but I held his wrist tight and said "Why have you been avoiding me lately?" Nico glared at me and said "Maybe I don't want to be around you!" I was getting mad "Why do you hate me so much!?" Nico didn't even respond he just walked away!

I couldn't sleep, I tried to roll over and close my eyes but I was wide-awake. So I decided to go clear my head I walked down to the beach when I saw someone standing in the water before I realized who it was. Nico was awake and at the exact place where I was going I was going to call out his name when I heard him talking "Stupid son of Poseidon he so oblivious and annoying, and good-" I didn't hear the last part because I tripped and when I got up Nico had his sword in hand and was staring at me. He suddenly paled and said "How much did you hear?" I got up and held my ands up in a sign of defeat "Not much, could you please put your sword away?" he sheathed his sword and started to walk back to the camp when and tackled him and pinned him to the ground. "Tell me why you are avoiding me!" I exclaimed "I already have!" He shouted. I looked at him and knew he was lying "Tell me the truth." But before I could get the answer two skeletal figures pulled me off of Nico and threw me down to the ground. "Percy I-" tears brimmed in his eyes and then he turned around and shadow traveled away. The skeletons melted back into the ground and I brushed myself off and went back to my cabin.

Nico

"Percy I-" tears where about to pour out of my eyes but I decided to shadow travel away.

I was mulling over what happened last night. I almost told him. What If I did tell him? I could just imagine his look disgust if I told him. But I didn't, so I was okay right?
