I ran into his cabin and saw that Nico was asleep so I sat down against the bed and started to cry. I didn't even know why I came here in the first place. I don't even know why I am crying in the first place.

Then I hear movement come from the bed. I turn around to see that Nico woke up and was looking at me with concern. Then he asked, "what's wrong." I didn't reply I was just too overwhelmed to say anything. Nico came off his bed, and sat down beside me, and said "it's OK there's no reason to cry," I ignored him. "Do you wanna go for a walk?" I nodded my head and he grabbed my hand and led me outside and we started to walk into the woods.

I slowly calmed down. I wanted to ask Nico something, but before I could ask Nico said "I have to tell you something."

Then I said, "oh I got to tell you something to."

Nico replied, "oh well you can go first I guess."

I sighed and asked "does Leo like me?"

I looked at Nico for a reaction, I saw his eyes darken and his hands clenched mine so hard it started to hurt, so I said "Nico you're hurting me." He let go of my hand but made an evil laugh. I was starting to get scared. Nico kept coming closer and I kept backing away until I hit a tree. Nico wrapped his hands around my neck and started to squeeze, and I couldn't breath and for the first time in my life I was scared. I was scared of the one person I thought I could trust. Nico DI Angelo who was hurting me. I feared for my life and when I was about to run out of oxygen Nico's eyes turned back to its normal color, and then came his shock. Finally, he let me go I was so weak that I didn't even have the power to stand up by myself.

So I collapsed onto the floor breathing heavenly trying to catch my breath. I look over to Nico in fear. I saw a look of disbelief across his face then he stared at his hands. He looked at me and stuttered "listen... I...I didn't mean," but before he could finish talking I shook my head at him, hoping he understood he was not forgiven and that I was not in the mood to see him. His eyes suddenly found interest in his feet. Then he looked back at me and whispered "I'm sorry I hope you can forgive me."

He shifted his weight from one foot to the other, he bit his lip then I guess he made up his mind because he stood straight stopped biting his lip and turned and left. I watched his retreating form until I couldn't see nor hear him anymore not trusting that he was truly gone, afraid he'd come back and hurt me again. I sat in a ball on the floor crying again but this time for a different reason.

Then I heard footsteps I involuntarily flinched. I put my hands above my head afraid it was Nico, but I looked and saw that it was Leo. He took one look at me and said "what happened to you?"
