Lydia
Lydia was quick to open the handbag considering it was a rare Chanel bag and only she knew how much the bag was worth.
"Dad told me to give that to you," Nico said as their eyes locked for a second and a mutual understanding was made . Their food order is called seconds later. Luckily for the trio one of the things Lydia pulled out of the bag was an infinite credit card considering they were all broke.
While they were eating Nico took his time explaining the prophecy of the seven, camp half-blood and eventually Camp Jupiter and his relationship with all them.
Nico felt vulnerable but relieved sharing what he did with these girls he barely knew. The redhead and her relaxed yet calculating eyes reminded him of a very familiar set of grey eyes he preferred not to think about. The Brunette hit much closer to home sharing many of the features of his late sister Bianca. Not only the brown hair and brown eyes but her warm yet fierce aura not unlike his sister's. If he didn't know any better he'd think she was an older version of his sister
"We need a plan, " Allison says jolting Nico out of his thoughts.
"More like we need to go shopping, these clothes have overstayed their welcome," Lydia added
Nico tried to remember the last time he went clothes shopping and sadly couldn't remember it.
"Let's go shopping then," Nico answered
"We're gonna need a car , L.A is a too big a city to just walk around ," Lydia says
"Just leave that to me," Nico says
Allison and Lydia look at Nico and decide to make no comment. They just got up and threw their garbage away then headed outside.
"Jules-Albert!" Nico screams
A cloud of green smoke reveals a zombie chauffeur with a French accent driving a limousine. The chauffeur rolls down the window.
"Lovely to see again Master Nico, and ladies," Jules-Albert says casually and bows as the backdoors open.
"Nice to see you too Jules," Nico replied before climbing into the limousine ushering the others to do the same.
The ride is pretty decent for L.A travel and they arrive at H 's per Lydia's specific directions.
"See ya later Jules," Nico says as they all wave back moments before the limousine disappears in green smoke.
Lydia entered the H&M store with a stride as the others walked at their own pace.
"Does she always do that?" Nico asked Allison referring to Lydia moving so quickly.
"You wouldn't be surprised," Allison chuckled thinking back on all the times Lydia forced her to go shopping.
Lydia didn't even bother looking for new outfits to wear. She piled the cart up with outfits she knew by heart and she and decided to revamp one of her outfits from high school given she was a teenager again. She ended up changing into a black lace trimmed tank top, A zipped up red faux Leather bomber jacket and a pair of slim fit black cargo pants and lastly black combat boots thinking of stiles favorite motto.
"Proper preparation prevents poor performance Lydia,"
Nico being Nico stuck to his regular color palette palette made his way through the men's clothing section and picked out a pair of black jeans, a black t shirt with black air force ones and lastly a black beanie with a skull on it. While Allison's outfit choice was simple and consisted of a black sweatpants ,white long sleeve shirt with a black button up vest and black combat boots.
They met again waiting in line since it was a busy day and the line was long.
"Where are we supposed to put all this stuff Lydia?" Allison asked curiously looking at how much clothes Lydia bought.
"In here," Lydia responded showing Allison the inside of the the bag.
Allison proceeded to look at Lydia with disbelief and Nico wasn't too far behind.
Lydia noticed the looks she was getting and shrugged and whispered "The bag has a lotta space "
"That much?" Allison asked sarcastically.
"We live in a world where gods exist Allison I'm pretty sure it is." Lydia answered back ending the conversation.
By the time they left the store the sun was already setting so Nico led them into a dark alley and shadow traveled.
The girls looked around to see that their surroundings had changed from a dark alley to an even darker room only illuminated by torches.
Nico walked to the obsidian black doors and opened them letting the chill sunset breeze blow through the cabin along with the last vestiges of sunlight.
"I'm gonna take a nap now, Chiron should be at the big house. Tell him I said hi and I'll see him at dinner. Close the doors on the way out too please," Nico pleaded as he climbed in his bed.
"Come on Lydia" Allison grabbed Lydia's hand and they walked out the cabin together the same way they did Derek's loft all those years ago hand in hand.
