Sorry I broke my promise. My cousin wasn't able to complete this chapter because of how little time she currently has and asked me to finish the rest of this chapter for her. I apologize for taking so long. Now on with the story! And happy new years!
P.S. This fanfic is before Blood of Olympus
Nico POV:
The door slowly slowly open and a figure appeared in the doorway. I gripped my sword ready to fight the shadowy figure.
"Nico, you awake?" Whispered a familiar voice. Percy.
"Don't scare me like that!" I whispered sitting back down.
"Sorry, but I needed to talk to you privately and with the situation this afternoon and the whole mind reading thing," he moved forward and sat down in front of me.
"What are you talking about?" I questioned suspiciously.
"Well, it's about your crush." I gripped my sword again. "It's just awkward 'cause I thought we were friends." I was getting ready to stab him.
"Why on earth would you think that." I managed to say through grinded teeth.
"I don't know." He gulped, I guess he must've seen my death glare through the dim lighting. "Look I don't mind. I'm even flattered but Anabeth is mine."
The comment surprised me. He thought I liked Anabeth. How clueless.
"Why do you look so happy? I thought you would be offended or something."
"Percy, Anabeth is like a sister to me. I don't like her."
"So your saying she's not good enough for you," he accused pretty loudly standing up.
"That's not it either," I shouted.
"Nico, stop yelling." Leo mumbled half awake.
"Go back to bed." Percy I said in unison.
Leo started snoring again and Percy continued. "Nico I don't want to be a jerk but stay away from Anabeth."
"And if I don't" I said just to annoy him.
"I'll throw you back into Tartarus." He used this threat so lightly. It took a moment to process. Wanting to cry I let my bangs cover my eyes.
"Just leave."
"I will but stay away from Anabeth."
"As I said I do not want her." Percy stormed out of the room slamming the door behind him.
Alone. Again. I lied down and for the tenth time a tear slid down my cheek. Quiet sobs lulled me to sleep.
Leo POV
There was nothing around me but a blinding whiteness.
"Where in Hades am I?" I wondered aloud.
Just as I spoke the words a bright red door appeared about 100 yards in front of me. Before I could take a step towards it. Silent sobs were heard behind me. Turning around, Nico was sprawled, on the floor crying. I just stood in the distance. Suddenly a wave of sadness washed over me. Is this how Nico feels. How long has he been in pain? Each time he muttered something it got darker around us, eventually it became pitch black.
In the morning the two of us walked to the dining room of the ship. Nico froze and stiffened at the sight of Percy and Anabeth.
Nico POV
I cant believe Percy would threaten to throw me into Tartarus.
'What!?' Leo yelled. Man I forgot that Leo can read my mind.
"I can't believe you said that after so much he's been through!" Leo screamed at Percy. How would Leo know what i've been through?
"What did Percy say?" Jason asked coming in with Piper. Leo whispered into Jason's ear. As Leo pulled away Jason made a look of disgust. At that moment I was sure of one thing. This won't end well.
"Oh no you didn't!" Jason yelled snapping his fingers.
"Oh yes I did!" Percy yelled in waving his hand.
'This is an odd fight.' Leo though
'Well it wouldn't be odd if you hadn't started it.' I screamed back.
Jason grabbed Pipers cornucopia and launched pies at Percys face. A food fight commenced. Hazel an Frank soon came in and thought the flying food was a game and 'joined in' on the fun. Only Anabeth, Piper, and I remained out of the fight. Finally Hedge came in causing everyone to freeze.
"Why didn't any one tell me there was a food fight?" he asked also joining in. Really!? Even Coach Hedge?
'Yup!' Leo chirped. Soon every thing eventually died down. Percy and Jason were left to clean up the mess.
'Nico?'
'Ya,'
'What are we gonna do about clothes cause i don't feel comfortable being shirtless all day.' Leo stopped. 'hmmmmmm... I know!' He pulled out a sewing needle, and two sets for a zipper. Within a few minutes both of our shirts had zippers on them going across the shoulder. We tried the shirts on and the zipper worked. A few minutes later Leo tore both shirts seeing if the zipper could be better.
'Leo! The shirts worked fine why did you have to fidget with it!'
"Cause the zipper was annoying me!" He accidentally said aloud. The two of us were now heading to a closet with our shirts half on.
We soon reached the dark closet and I tried to learn against the wall as I wait for Leo to find what ever was needed. The closet turned out bigger than expected and I face planted into the floor hitting my back on the way down and Leo right on top of me. A painful gasp escaped my lips as my lower spine began to ache. Tensing up instantly I heard whispering.
Annabeth and Percy were to the right of us. She was pinning Percy to the wall. Annabeth stared at us with a mischievous look in her eyes and Percy smiled. Aphrodite if you are hearing this. This is your fault. Gahhh! This is going to be a long two weeks.
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT:
My cousin and I have read BOO. Now she ships Will and Nico and wants to change it to that pairing instead of Leo and Nico. I think it should stay the same. To avoid a fight me and her have decided to do a vote all who vote please put your vote in the reviews.
I appreciate constructive criticism.
Peace,
SAS
