A/N: Came up with this while listening to Hello by Evanescence. Then Lithium, as obvious by the title. so THALICO! Is depressing.. I had to let go of pride and write this...

I don't think Rick Riordan is a depressed teenage girl *fails at imagining it* Nope, too hard. Plus, I live on the other side of the country. Also, this is partially based off of the Lithium lyrics vid by ty0kroitoru1, the comment made by Michael Huskey


Thalia's POV

I began to use the Lithium.

As I had to.

Without it, I began to envision crazy scenes, scenes where I was everything I'd wanted.

Of course, Nico barged in the one day the Hunters were visiting and I wasn't using it.

I began to scream, scream for Luke.

As I was screaming Nico came in...


Nico's POV

I was confused as to were Thalia was, so I (naturally) barged into her cabin, only to hear her screaming.

"What in the name of Zues?" I screamed as I saw her, in her pajamas, huddled on her bed, eyes red and wide, screaming for Luke.

"Thalia!" I said, rushing over to hug her. "Sh..." I muttered as I stroked her hair.

She cried into my shirt.

"Hey Thals," I whispered, "I'm here. Don't think about Luke."

She finally understood what had happened.

"Please don't tell anyone about this." She said to me, so vulnerable.

"Never, Thali," I told her.

"K, good. Now leave so I can get ready!"

I left and changed into my other black shirt (What? Black ROCKS!) and waited for her.

She was taking forever, so I knocked.


Thalia's POV

I was writing on the wall when Nico knocked. I dropped the pen and yelled, "COMIN!"

As I went to the door and opened it, Nico walked in, looking.. Different.

"Thalia," he said, serious, "it's about earlier."

I panicked. If anyone knew, I'd get given special attention and-

"I want to help you."
I was shocked. What did he mean?

"W-what?"

He looked at me, then snatched my hand in his.

Somehow it was warm.

"You need help; don't hide it"

I sighed. "Nico, how'll you help?"
"I can-" He cut himself off.

"What?" I asked.

"We have to go. Percy'll be worried." So he dragged me out of the cabin, and then we realized we were holding hands.

We blushed like crazy and let go.

I immediately missed the warmth.

"Race ya!" I called over my shoulder racing towards where we were going.

Nico just chuckled and ran.
