Author's Note: Alright I think we're done with the memories for now time to wrap up the plot for this one. This one is kinda short. I own nothing.
Memories: Final
Jason blinked up at the white celling above him. There was a feeling of comfort surrounding him. The empty feeling he'd had ever since he woke up on the school bus with no memories of who he was had finally vanished. Contentment had replaced it and a feeling a being whole at last. Someone was holding his hand and he turned his head and smiled at Piper who launched herself into his arms. He laughed and caught her planting a kiss on her lips. An exaggerated gagging sound drew his attention to Leo who was standing behind the chair Piper had been sitting in. The mechanic smiled wide and held up his hand for a high five. Jason obliged then pulled his best friend into a hug, ruffling his hair as the Latino laughed. Then Jason spotted the figure in the next bed over.
Nico would have looked peaceful if not for the tears streaming from her closed eyes. Will was sitting by her side, her fingers intertwined with Nico's. She was whipping away her own tears as the daughter of Hades muttered in Italian. Jason sat up abruptly his arm wrapping around Piper to make sure she didn't fall.
"What happened?!" The last thing he remembered was standing in the Hades cabin drinking the vial of water. He had no idea why Nico was in the infirmary, crying in her sleep with her girlfriend sitting by her side seemingly unable to wake her. Piper laid a hand on his shoulder and explained the appearance of the goddess of memory in Nico's cabin.
"So, she's got her memories back?" Leo shrugged.
"We don't know, she hasn't woken up yet. How are you feeling? Got your memories back?" Jason nodded.
"Yeah. I got them back." Piper pecked him on the cheek as one Will's sisters peeked in and smiled at them before giving Jason a quick checkup and pronouncing him good to go whenever he wanted to. Instead of leaving Jason plopped himself down in the chair next to Will.
"Any ideas why she hasn't woken up?" Will didn't look up from her girlfriend as she spoke.
"Well you had regained some of your memories already so it was just bits and pieces you needed to recover. She was washed in the Lethe, she didn't have anything of her memories besides what she has been told about her past." Jason's hands clenched into fists. He knew that Nico was from the nineteen forties and her sister Bianca had died long before he could meet her. There had been no one who could share secrets of her past except her father and somehow Jason had a feeling that Hades had been less than forthcoming with information. Nico muttered something else in Italian.
"I didn't know she spoke Italian." Jason commented as Piper and Leo settled around them, clearly none of them were going to be leaving until they were sure Nico was alright.
"She's actually a native Italian, she was born in Italy. But I've never heard her speak it before. I've heard her accent get pretty heavy though. When she gets excited about something she gets this really heavy Italian accent and has problems pronouncing my name right. She says it like Wheel instead of Will." Piper chuckled as Will grinned down at her girlfriend. They were quiet for a while waiting. It was almost an hour before Nico woke up. Leo had retrieved the cards from the Hephaestus cabin and started another round of BS, including Will this time though she wasn't very interested in the game. But it was her turn when Nico sat up and rubbed at her eyes. Will dropped her cards and leapt into Nico's arms. Leo glanced down at the fallen cards.
"I knew you were lying!" Will's laugh was muffled in Nico's hair. Nico rubbed her girlfriends back and pulled her in for a kiss. Piper grinned wide, Jason averted his eyes and Leo wolf whistled. The mechanic was promptly knocked off his feet by his own shadow. Nico chuckled as Will scowled and reprimanded her for using her powers.
"I know, mio caro. I know, I'll stop. I promise." Will was checking over Nico's vitals and looked up interested.
"What does that mean?" Nico blushed bright red and tried to hide her face in her hands but Will was still holding one of them taking her pulse. Jason couldn't hold in a snort of laughter. Nico glared. Piper smiled. Will still looked a little concerned.
"Well you seem alright. How do you feel?" Nico stared down at her hands.
"A bit overwhelmed. It's a lot of information. And I don't think I'll ever be able to unsee what happened to my mother. But I think I'll be alright." Will pulled Nico into another hug. Nico buried her face into Wills shoulder. For a few minutes, they just stayed there holding each other.
