Hey did you know Nico is so adorable? I really don't think this is punishment, because I could do this forever. I bet you'd never guess what we were doing. Yes, we are...playing Mythomagic! I said to the imaginary audience in my head.
"Nico, you said you didn't play this anymore." I elbowed Nico as he placed all his figurines in a row on the floor.
"I know I did but, I couldn't give it up you know. It feel like the only part of Bianca I had left..." Nico said not turning around but I can tell it saddened him by the way his head hung. I wrapped my arms around him and buried my faced in his hair, it smelled of cinnamon and apples. I wasn't quite sure how to play this games but I'll do anything for Nico and yes, I mean anything. I turned him around so he was facing me and when I saw his face, I gasped.
"What? Do I have anything on my face or something?" Nico asked me, frantic.
I flashed him a smile "No, its just your eyes. They are so beautiful..." I said as I stared into the black orbs that seemed to go on forever. In only a few seconds I saw them start to water, but this isn't the kind of salt water I controlled. I thought I did something wrong until I looked and saw his smile along his face.
"What?"
"Its just... uh never mind" He said the last part fast like he thought better of what he was saying. So I gave him a questioning look, begging him to tell me but after a few seconds I could tell he didn't want to, so I let it go. What ever he wanted to say, seemed really important to him, so I respected that.
Nico quickly explained the rules and we started playing. At first I thought it was kinda confusing, but then I figured out why he liked it so much. I was having the most fun of my entire life. It was thirty minutes later when Annabeth knocked on our door telling us the van was here and we needed to leave so Nico packed up and we checked out of the hotel.
We were exiting the hotel and I saw the van parked outside on the curb. I opened the back doors and put in the small backpack we had. I closed the doors and turned around to find Nico there smiling. I swear I have never seen him smile so much and its just the best feeling in the world when only one person, can make someone who doesn't at all, smile. I take his hand and drag him toward the van and we get in. Annabeth sits up front with Argus and we take off.

Well, lets say the car ride was awkward. Annabeth sat for two hours staring at me and Percy, her eyes flickering back and forth. I glance over at Percy and I see he is just as uncomfortable as me. I glare at her for a few seconds before I clear my throat. She gets the hint and turns back around and thankful, Percy takes my hand. I see the camp coming into view over the green hills and I am so thankful to get out of this car. All of a sudden my mind flashes back to what I was about to tell Percy earlier. I stopped because I didn't think I should say it until I was sure. I really hoped I'd get the courage to say it anyway. I can promise myself I will though.
I look out from under my bangs to find Percy staring at me with wide eyes. I give him a look and he opens and closes his mouth like the seaweed brain he is, before saying "Damn...I have never seen you do that."
I give him another questioning glace and his eyes flicker to my plate. I had inhaled the whole thing. That was the most food I probably had eaten in my entire life.
"Hmm... I have never seen myself do that either. Maybe it was the blue food?" As soon as we got to our table Percy switched my regular food for blue food saying it could be a couple thing we could do. I was so hung up on him actually calling me his boyfriend that I ate without thinking. I guess that was just it. I was so self-conscious, I never ate. I look around the table and no-one is paying any attention. I take his hand and drag him away from out table and down to his cabin, its really comforting here. I sit down on the bed and pull him down with me. Another tear falls down my face wetting my cheek. I know this is the time I have to say it. I open my mouth and start rambling looking down into my lap. " I know it hasn't been along time and i know you probability don't feel the same but... I also want to thank you i have never eaten that much before and now look... I just want to say and-" I look up as Percy cups my chin, pulling my head to face him and making me look into his sea green eyes. My eyes water more and he grins sadly.
"Nico, just spit it out. Its okay." He reassures me.
I take a deep breath and say it "I...I love you Percy."
Percy looks down at his lap and when he looks back up there are tears in his eyes also. His smile is almost bigger than his face." Nico, there is a huge problem with that.." a big frown appears on my face and the tears start falling faster but stop as he finishes his sentence "I love you way more so you are just going to have to deal with it." He leans in and kisses my forehead while wiping tears from my eyes. The next thing he says almost makes my heart stop.
" And I promise to never stop..."
