Nico Pov
We made our way to the library in absolute silence, our feet shuffling slightly. Valdez looked like he wanted to start some sort of conversation but he hesitated and changed his mind. I couldn't help but feel a slight bit disappointed that he didn't try to communicate with me while walking to the library. When we got there nobody occupied the area accept the frail librarian who resided in the corner of her desk. She paid us no attention. We made our way to the table at the very back of the room where the shadows seem to accumulate. We found different Greek Mythology textbooks and one of the school's laptops. We started our research by ourselves first and then decided to discuss with each other.
"So Nico what god or goddess that you decide on?" inquired Leo
" Um, Hades."I whispered timidly.
" Okay, I decided on Hephaestus because he is the god of metalwork and fire and I love both." he said excitedly.
I nodded. We decided to use a power point presentation to do the assignment. By the time that the bell rang we had already finished our project and saved it on Leo's flash drive.
"Thanks for working with me." he grinned sheepishly at me. I tried to smile back but it came out as a scowl, he grinned wider at that.
"So I was wondering if want to be friends?" I was surprised that he wanted to be friends with me. i mean come on who wanted to be friends with someone like me. Maybe he didn't know better, maybe he just was taking pity on me. I don't need pity. Nobody would ever truly like me enough to be my friend. I just scowled at him and stormed out of the room leaving him staring after me.
A/N: Heyy lovies. Sorry I took so long to update. My updates maybe be short and long apart because of school and writers block.
