I don't own Percy Jackson or Simple Plan.
Chapter 3: I'm Just a Kid
Nico didn't show up for breakfast that morning, I didn't blame him. He's been through a lot. Shortly before lunch was when he showed up. His eyes were puffy and red, I wondered if he slept at all.
Nico gave us a bow as he walked in, I gave him a small nod in acknowledgement, but Hades seemed to ignore it.
"Are you finally over it?" Hades asked.
"Hades, husband, he just lost his sister again, he may need time to… cope." I said.
Nico stared dumbfounded at me, like he couldn't believe I was be nice and defending him.
Hades rolled his eyes. "Go to your pathetic camp today."
Nico bowed and shadow traveled.
That night when Nico came back, he went straight to his room, looking like he wanted to cry again. As far as I could tell, he didn't know I knew he was here, and I don't think Hades knew he was here either.
Soon enough the music started.
I woke up it was 7
I waited till 11
Just to figure out that no one would call
I think I've got a lot of friends but I don't hear from them
What's another night all alone?
When you're spending everyday on your own
That might be another reason he stays here, he has almost no friends at camp, just that Percy Jackson.
And here it goes
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me tonight
Does he really feel so along?
And maybe when the night is dead, I'll crawl into my bed
And staring at these 4 walls again
I'll try to think about the last time I had a good time
Everyone's got somewhere to go
And they're gonna leave me here on my own
I don't want to leave you along, Nico, what was I thinking hating you before. I guess I just hated the fact Hades had an affair.
And here it goes
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me
What the hell is wrong with me?
Don't fit in with anybody
How did this happen to me?
Wide awake I'm bored and I can't fall asleep
And every night is the worst night ever
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid.
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid
I'm just a kid
He is a kid, barely 13, and has seen more than some in Asphodel that have lived to be 50.
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Nobody wants to be alone in the world.
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that it's not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Nobody wants to be alone in the world
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me tonight
I'm all alone tonight
Nobody cares tonight
Cause I'm just a kid tonight
I will not leave you along Nico, ever.
