A/N I don't know what to do I just hope you enjoy my first chapter of hopefully many.

Nico

Nico was infuriated but oh so very relieved at the same time. He was very pissed at that son of Apollo, Will Solstice, or was it Solace, how could one expect him to remember after all he'd been through. Although, he had just been with him for three days so he really should – NO! Nico would not let some boy distract him. He was pissed because Solace, I think it's Solace he thought, for not letting him participate in capture the flag, and dammit he wanted to play and by the gods he would. But despite being enraged at Solace he also very glad to get his normal life back. Well not normal, but you get the point.

When Nico went back to the lonely Hades cabin, he found a little surprise for him. It would seem that all his friends had been eagerly awaiting his return he saw a bunch of little gifts from his friends. Jason and Piper had gotten him a little plush skeleton.

"Like that'll never get old" he mutters, annoyed, but happy they thought of him.

Leo had made him something that looked very dangerous, but didn't have an instruction manual, so Nico was gonna have to find out later. Reyna, sent him a little stone he guessed he was supposed to carry around to comfort him. Gods bless her he thought, he was glad he told her about the nightmares, and she really cared. Hazel had gotten some balloons that said, "Get well soon". Annabeth bought him a sketch book with the following note attached

"Nico, if you are worried or scared, just doodle to calm down."

He loved these people so much. Oh, Percy had gotten him a new hoo – Oh no, he thought, Oh gods, I told Percy that I – and now he – and we wont be friends – Nico sat down and started hyperventilating, the facade of the steely dark Nico dropped and he curled up, tears coming up. He grabbed the notebook and started drawing. He drew until he calmed down, then almost cried again thinking about the thoughtfulness of his friends. My only friends he thought bitterly, but then smiled because things were looking up.

After a long shower Nico prepared to go out and thank his friends, but then there was a knock at the door accompanied by a voice saying,

"Nico, you home?"

Nico's heart skipped a beat. That's Will now. Wait why I am so nervou – Oh gods, does this me – Not him, he's not – He's stra – Is he? Dammit! Can't hope.Nico was freaking out, he knew who he liked for, like, 80 years, (literally) but he couldn't deal with it, not now, not ever, he was freaking out. He was so used to the oppression and hatred from where he was from he couldn't deal with it. He curled up and tears started threatening to break through. The knocks grew more frantic, he must have heard Nico, Oh gods, oh gods help me he thought desperate for aid.

"NICO" came Will's stressed voice "I know you're there and the showers not on, are you ok?" The panic was very evident. Will started throwing himself against the door, he couldn't break it, not after Nico reinforced it after Jason broke down the door by accident.

"I'm getting Jason and Percy" Will yelled "I know you're there stay put help's coming"

NO! Not Percy! Nico wanted to scream, but he couldn't, he started sobbing at the hopelessness. The knocking re began, with Jason's and Percy's voice joining Will's, they were freaking out, Nico wanted to just fade into the shadows. He looked down and realized he was, he tried to scream for help, but couldn't. Oh Gods he thought, HHHEEEELLLLPPPPPP
