I paced back and forth, brisk and fast, carving an imaginary path through the living room of the cabin; holding back tears.

"Hurry up, Annabeth, hurry up, " I muttered to myself. I knew I should've gone to meet her at my tree but I couldn't bear to see Him again.

After a few more minutes I heard a knock at the door, I nearly jumped for joy, but controlled myself.
I heard another knock, "Thals? You there?"
I froze. Nico.
"Thals?"

"Uh.. Yea?" I responded cautiously.
"Can I come in?" he asked through the door.
"Um,… Sure I guess" I answered. Extremely conscious that I was only wear a pair of short shorts and a t-shirt.

I averted my eyes as he opened the door and walked inside, "Hi,"
"Hey…." He greeted back.
"So, why are you here?" I asked quietly, looking up at him; his gorgeous eyes, his olive skin, his glossy black hair. I saw all of it through crystal eyes.
"I needed some stuff I left" he replied, giving me a once over.
"Oh, where'd you leave it?" his perfect lips.
"Your room I think" his aura of not caring.
"Okay" I told him, "Come on"

I felt an electric tingle pass through me as he brushed past me towards me to my room.

When we got to the room I waited by the door as he grabbed some things . When he got back to the 'door I grabbed his arm, "Nico" I began uncertain, "I.. I miss you" I said my voice almost breaking.
"I miss you too" he said quietly, and before I knew it, I was kissing him.
