Hello again! Sorry it's been so long but I was busy writing a medieval romance of English class. It's about Travis and Katie. Might post it, so look out for it!

And I'm not going to be whiney, but I only got a few reviews, I think, on that last chapter and I would like at least 5 or so before the next one. Thanks!

Here's Part Three! The final part of the trilogy.

Disclaimer: I am not Rick. I do not own PJATO!

We both smiled at each other and we untangled ourselves. We intertwined our fingers and just looked at each other. Perfect.

But, of course, the universe hates me. Cause guess who decided to pop up next to me as I stood up and unhinged my hands away from Nico's:

Artemis.

"Good evening Lieutenant Thalia. Miss me?"


I stared, openmouthed at Artemis. Did she have to come at that exact moment? Did she always have to ruin everything?

Of course she did.

"Lady Artemis! I did not know you would be arriving so soon." I said with nervousness in my voice.

"Well, I decided to join my Hunters for dinner," She looked over at Nico. He had a straight face on. Absolutely no emotion was shown. Good. "And, what are you doing here with a son of Hades?"

I glanced between the two before selecting an answer. "I was saying goodbye. I had not gotten the time to do it earlier so I did it now."

"And why did you skip dinner for this?"

"I had a large lunch. I am very stuffed." I answered…err, lied back. I was very hungry, but Nico was way more important than hunger.

She nodded and gestured for Nico to stand. I thought she was going to send him away. "Mr. Di Angelo, you may say your final goodbye. Then Thalia," she turned to me, "I would like you to accompany me to the dinning pavilion."

I nodded. I walked closer to Nico, who still had a straight face on.

"Well, goodbye Nico. I h-hope to see you soon."

"Same with you, Thalia."

I extended my arms and wrapped them around him in a warm embrace. I moved my head to the right and up to his ear. He shivered a bit as my breath touched his skin which made me smile.

"Meet me at Zeus' Fist in ten minutes," I whispered, "Well, figure something out then."

Nico gave the slightest of nods and I let go of him. We just stood there, looking at each other, afraid this would be the last time we could do that.

"Goodbye." I whispered.

I turned my back to him, just like the oath says (I turn my back on the company of men) and walked to the dinning pavilion with Artemis.

As we both arrived at the entrance, she went to go speak to Chiron. I nodded and she left me. I glanced back from the entry way to see Nico by the bench. He was just a blurry blob because of the distance, but I could still see his powerful eyes. The eyes that made me fall in love.

I love Nico di Angelo, son of Hades, one of the saviors of Olympus. And there was nothing Artemis, my father, Hades, or Athena could do about it.


After an excruciatingly long ten minutes, the Hunters were leaving. I said a quick goodbye to everyone and then put my little plan into action.

I slipped Aegis into my pocket. Then I looked down at my wrist "noticing" that it was gone. I told Artemis that I must have left it at Zeus' Fist and she said to go quick and retrieve it. I smiled inwardly. The plan worked like a charm.

I bolted to Zeus' Fist and saw Nico there. Almost immediately I ran up to him and hugged the life out of him.

"Woah, Thalia!" He laughed.

I broke away from him and looked at him, sadness dripping from my eyes. He wiped a stray tear and I smiled at the touch of his skin.

"So, Nic. I have an idea. I can drop out of the hunt, but then I would automatically become 16, since I became a Hunter a day before I was 16. But, I would rather do that the day before my actual birthday, December 22nd. "

Nico nodded. "So basically, we keep this love hidden till Christmas, and then tell Artemis before your birthday, so you will be back on track with your life, and we can be together without it being illegal?"

"Yeah, pretty much!"

"I like it, except for the waiting part," he stepped closer to me and I put my hands on his shoulders, "I want to say that you are mine now, Thals."

"I am yours, and you are mine. That will never change. I love you Nico, always will and never wont. We just can't…tell anyone. Not even Annabeth or Percy, ok?"

He nodded once again. I tightened the grip on his shoulders by wrapping my hands around his neck. He placed his on my waist. And we closed the gap between our faces, signaling our second kiss.

This one was not as long, but just as much passion was put in to it. He was the one to break it off, and pointed towards a moving blob.

The Hunters and Artemis were coming, and fast.

"Nico," He faced me once again, "I will iris message you and then you shadow travel ok? Got it?" He nodded frantically. I took my arms back and he did so with his. I looked back to see the Hunters coming closer. I kissed his cheek and ran off to them.

As I approached, Artemis looked sternly at me and said, "Well, you took long."

"Sorry! It had fallen between two of the rocks and I had to get it out." I came up with.

She nodded, believing it and told me to come along. We began walking farther and farther away from camp, and Nico.

Nico. Oh how I would miss him. I would iris message him that night, of course, but physically see him… possibly not for a while.

This was going to be the hardest six months of my life.


Yay! They're together officially! Ohh this is gonna be hard for Thals and Nic. Why do I make it hard? Because, I'm like Aphrodite. I love a good romance! Lol Review!
