Nico's POV
Percy came running up to us, with three other students in tow. Lovely. I had hoped to get by without people noticing me, but that idea was already down the drain.
"So this is Harry, Ron and Hermione. They are students here, and the ones we are supposed to protect." Percy said introducing them to us. "Guys, this is Nico and Will. Other campers. Come to take over half of our jobs."
"Hi!" Said the girl, "Nice to meet you."
"Hey, welcome to Hogwarts." Said a boy who I think was Harry.
"Hello. Sorry but if you don't mind me asking, can you tell us who your godly parents are?" Ron asked politely. He looked nervous.
"Yes! I am Will, son of Apollo, God of the sun, music, healing, and prophecy." Will said. The three students looked impressed.
"You mean the God of Bad haikus, stroppy attitude and annoying women who spout out quest instructions. Sorry Rachel." Percy said out loud.
Then they turned to me.
"I'm Nico." I mumbled, making my voice barely audible, "Son of Hades. God of the Underworld." The boy I thought was Harry, perked up at the last part of my sentence.
"God of the Underworld, like the afterlife?" He asked.
"Yeah, thats right." I replied unsure to where this was heading.
"You don't happen to know, Lily and James Potter. Or Sirius Black?" He asked.
"Hmm. I don't know Lily and James Potter, but I do remember Sirius Black. He made quite an entrance when he... Um died." I said thoughtfully. "Why?"
"They are my parents and Godfather." Harry answered quietly. I felt a sudden saddness for the boy. I knew what it was like to loose a loved one. For a gew long years I was alone. I mean I always had Percy and Annabeth, but even they were distant. I was alone until I met Will that was. I snapped out of my trance, and said to him.
"I might be able to arrange something." I looked at him, waiting for his reaction.
"What do you mean?" He asked confused.
"I am the Son of the king of the Underworld. I have certain privileges. But mind you they can only go so far." I replied. His friends looked at me in awe. Man I really hate when people look at me like I am part of a zoo. Though Will, Percy and Annabeth just smirked. Harry looked like he was about to burst with joy.
"Sorry. Need to go. Bye!" He said running really fast towards the castle. I swear I heard him whoop at one point. We talked about a bunch of things, for a few minutes. Well actually, Will talked with everybody else for a few minutes. I stayed in the background. Moments later, we heard a woosh over our heads. I looked up to see Harry doing loops, on his broom. Will came around and put his arm around my shoulders.
"You really did make that guy happy." He gave my shoulders a squeeze, and pecked me on the cheek. Ron and Hermione froze. Shoot. I forgot that we were in the past. They wouldn't be as accepting as people from 2018 would. Percy had forgotten about this, and he was used to us, so he looked at them funnily. Annabeth's face dawned in realization. Will oblivious just smiled at them.
"Is anything wrong?" He asked slowly.
"Uhh... I don't know how to explain whats wrong." Ron said shocked.
"Did you just kiss him?" Asked Hermione. Will froze as well.
"So sorry. I forgot that we were in the past, and that your generation wouldn't understand as much as ours." Will said jumping away from me. I felt my face burn. Percy had just clued in as well.
"We are dating. Yes we are gay. We had forgotten what year we were in. Sorry. We will refrain, from anything like that in public." I said, trying to finish the conversation. Hermione and Ron relaxed a little bit.
"Sorry for freaking out. We should have known that you were modern day demigods." Apologized Hermione.
"We should show you to your dorms. You are in the Gryffindor house too." Percy said. Annabeth nodded.
"See you later! Oh and you might want to calm Harry down. He is still flying around like a two year old!" Annabeth called as we walked away.
Sorry for not updating in a while, and for the shortness of the chapter.
Thanks for reading! :)
