Wake Me Up Later

22. Happiness


Happiness didn't mean smiling or laughing. It meant having please emotions – well according to Wikipedia that Nico checked. It was hard having 'pleasant' emotions when you were a demigod – monsters constantly out for you, you're probably never going to have a normal life, and it's really hard to get a boyfriend.

But happiness was when Nico's head was light and he felt like rolling through a hill of daisies or something stupid like that. Nico wanted to puke at the thought. But Nico was happy when he ate a happy meal or when he breathed air so being happy wasn't that bad.
