Midnight Kisses (pt.1)
Elizabeth's P.O.V.
It was the night after I just got to camp half-blood; Poseidon had just claimed me. I was really excited to have Percy as an older brother and Annabeth acting as an older sister. I had just finished meeting all of Percy's friends (which was a lot of people), well all of them except for one. He was late cause he had been visiting his dad in the underworld. When he came to the campfire some people came up to him and said "hey Nico", or things like that. He looked in my direction and our eyes connected, and the only thing on my mind was those eyes. Percy snapped me out of it when he told me I had to meet one more person. He brought me up to him and he introduced himself and so did I. I mentally scolded myself, I had to concentrate on something other than Nico cause he definitely had a girlfriend, with looks like that how could he not.
About 2 months after the campfire, Percy and I were about to go swimming in the lake. Before we could, Nico jogged up to me and asked if he could talk to me real quick. I looked at Percy to see if it was ok, and he just stiffly nodded. As we were walking to the hidden clearing in the forest Nico was twiddling his thumbs furiously. When we got there he looked at me, fear coating his eyes. "Elizabeth, I know you aren't going to see me the same way after I say this, and you may even hate me, but here goes." And what he was about to say next was something I never expected. I thought it would be something mean, hurtful, or despising. But no what he said next was something I would never forget.
