"Nico ," I heard someone call my name so I looked over my shoulder at my sister Hazel. Then I turned the rest of the way once I noticed it was her.

"yeah hazel," I said.

She looked extremely nervous "I really need your help." It confused me what could hazel possibly need my help with she had everything if anything I should ask her for help not the other way around," but I'm her brother I need to at least listen to her problems even if I doubt I'll be of use.

I nodded my head "I would be happy to help you if anything."

She looked down at her shoes as if they were the most interesting thing in the world and blushed "could we I don't know talk somewhere a little more private." I looked around at our surroundings. We were in the main room of the Argo II and everyone was staring at us.

I nodded my head "sure of course we can." We walked in silence to my room or well Percy's room that I'm using since him and Annabeth are in Tartarus. We stepped inside and hazel took one last look at the hallway we just walked down and made sure nobody near and locked the door. I was getting suspicious of what she was going to ask me it's pretty big if she's taking such extreme measures to make sure nobody over hears.

Then she looks me dead in the eye with little to no confidence and said "Nico what do you do if you like a boy." I stood frozen with shock, I looked at her and said "what."

She blushed and said "I ask because I like someone."

I gazed and her softly "I know Hazel everyone knows I mean come on you guys are dating."

she shook her head "no not Frank I like someone else."

I was dumb founded with this revelation but somehow found myself still able to speak "that isn't fair to Frank then you need to break up with him."

Hazel stiffened "oh no I can't do that I love Frank too much."

I gave her a blank look "I don't think I understand."

She took a small breath in and out "here let me explain the situation in more detail you see I love frank I really do, but sometimes he is a little too serious and it's all the time, but he's there and he's stable he's my rock he keeps me safe, than there's the other boy Leo I don't know him very well and its nothing but a crush, but I have a feeling that if we do start dating we could be so much more. he's fun he's courageous and he takes life to the fullest, but sometimes you know I want that rock I want that routine and I don't know what to do."

I stared blankly "and your asking me for love advice wouldn't that job be better suited for someone like piper."

Hazel blushed "well I guess but I was hoping you would help me I mean you're my big brother and I trust you."

I smiled "hey I trust you too."

Her smile brightened when she heard that, "So got any ideas on how to help me."

I thought intently what could she do in such a predicament "well I said what do they think of each other."

Hazel smiled "they're good friends."

I nodded then said "do you know what Leo thinks of you."

"yes he has made it very clear that he liked me but he's not happy because he says I'm leading him on which is unfair to him."

I nodded then looked Hazel in the eyes "I can't tell you anything about your heart or what you want however you do need to pick one of them because its unfair to both"

She smiled "thanks Nico for... trying I'll go decide for my own now I guess."

he was about to leave when I grabbed her arm so she couldn't and said "Hazel."

She looked at me confused "yeah." I

I smirked "you're thirteen stop making such a big deal out of it there's plenty of time to think when your older when there's no more time for having fun." S

She rolled her eyes "says the boy who never has fun."

I smiled "just because what I do isn't fun for you doesn't mean I don't enjoy it" Hazel gave me one last smile "whatever Nico just take your own advice sometimes." "no promises," and with that hazel closed the door
