TailsDoll13: I will… Soon…

It was a cold, snowy day in Camp Half-Blood. Chiron and Mr D had decided to let the snow in, so the demigods were either staying inside, or playing with snow. Leo had just came back from the dead, along with Calypso, and everyone was thrilled.

"Hey, Nico, can I talk to you for a sec?" Leo asked. Nico raised an eyebrow. "Okay…" They got into Nico's cabin, which was empty due to Hazel being at Camp Jupiter with Frank for some last minute check.

"Are you all right?" Leo asked. Nico was kind of surprised to see Leo concerned, since he thought that Leo thought he was creepy.

"Yeah, why?" Leo looked unsure now. "Are you sure?" Nico chuckled.

"Dude, what is going on?" Leo put his hands on Nico's shoulders.

"I saw you on the ship. I didn't know what was going on then, but now that I think about it, I'm clear that you had the look on your face." Nico couldn't help but smile.

"What look?"

"You know, the look I had when I was back from Ogigia. Heartsick." Nico stared at the floor.

"I was," he admitted. He couldn't care anymore. "I had been heartsick for years then." Leo frowned.

"You okay now?" He asked. Nico nodded. "But I don't get it," Leo continued. "Why were you that angry? Why were you that… scary?" Nico slowly closed his eyes. He knew what was coming.

"I was… uncomfortable with myself. Knowing from when I've come from and what had happened since, it was okay, I guess." He looked at Leo. "I felt abnormal. I felt out of place and out of my skin." Leo smiled.

"Dude, I don't get it. Were you possessed or something?" Nico gave him a big sad smile. "No, Leo. My preferences are different, that's all."

"In which area? I personally think that you prefer lots of different things."

"I my preference in genders, you idiot. I'm… gay." There we go. He'd said the word which had bothered him for a while.

"Oh. Okay, I mean it's no biggie." There was an awkward silence, and Nico appreciated that Leo actually hadn't teased him about it.

"Does that mean you're flirting with me or…-"

"Leo!"
