Nico POV

"Crap, where are my clothes?" I can't find them anywhere and I'm only in hospital gown. You know the one's with the front coveed and the back...not so much. 'When I get my hands on Solace I'm going to throttle him.' I would have to do that later since Percy was on his way and I have no way of escaping.

"Why did I even decide to stay?" Pausing, I start to wonder exactly why I'm staying at Camp Half-Blood. I didn't get very far since I heard voices approaching. I grab some slippers that were left out for me and head jump in the nearest shadow.

SMACK! Face meets wall and butt meets floor as I my attempt on shadow-traveling fails. My ears ring and there's a pounding in my head. The world starts to spin as I ty to rise. I immediately fall to my bum again much harder than the first time. "Ouch." is the reconition I give to the pain. I grit my teeth through it and stand, grabbing the bed. Finding my balance I head to the curtain.

I grab the cutain and pull it back, but lose my balance and fall...on top of someone...someone tall. I stare into beautiful blue eyes. Not sea green. Blue. I can't breathe. Or think. Only hearing my name shocks me back to reality.

"Nico, what are you doing?" I scramble to get up and I run. I run faster than I've run ever in my life with no clear direction. Soon I'm in the woods lost, weaponless, and only in a hospital gown. "Things can't get worst than this."

Well the fates love to prove people wong espacially demigods and thats what they did. Something huge roared just a few yards and it was coming my way.

Line Break


Crap. Crap. Crap! I just lost one slipper and my gown is stuck on a branch. "Come on you stupid thing." Tugging it free I begin running again and find myself at a cliff. Looking down at the water, I think about jumping but I remember how much I suck at swimming. At that moment I vowed to learn how to swim if I made it out was a rustling in the trees to my left and something came out.

"How stupid can you be di Angelo? I mean come on! You may be the son of the Lord of the Undeworld and what not but doesn't mean you're invicible!" huffed Will as he came towards me. 'Will looks kinda cute when his mad. What the...!? Where did that come from? Instead of pondering what in gods name that was, I roll my eyes at the son of Apollo and tease, "Awe, where you worried about me? How sweet?"

"I-I..you..ugh whatever. Let's just go back so I can make sure you didn't hurt yourself even more." He grabs my hand and starts pulling me back to camp but I dig my heels into the dirt. "Nico you need-"

"I'm not going back." I mumble and free my hand.

"What?"

"I said I'm not going back! You can't make me!" I stare wide-eyed Will shocked by my outburst. I started to take a few steps back but Will grabs my arm. "Will...l-let me go." He doesn't. Feeling a little more confident I say, "Let me go, now."

"No."

"What?"

"No I'm not letting you go."

"Will please. Just...just let me go. I can't be here."

"Why?"

"I'm not welcome here."

"Yes, you are."

"What do you mean?"

"I mean that you're welcome here. So stop being such a baby and lets go back to camp. Doctor's orders." He gives me one of his thousand watt smiles and I fight the tugging of my lips. I nod and he grabs my hand again. I can't help the blush that comes to my pale cheeks.

Line Break


On Olympus sits the mostly lovely, goddess Aphrodite watching the two demigod walk hand in hand back to Camp Half-Blood.

"Now isn't this interesting. A son of Apollo and son of Hades. I guess opposites do attract." The love goddess says from her palace on Olympus. She snaps her fingers and there is puff of pink smoke and an impossibly beautiful man rises from it.

"Yes mother," His kneels and kiss her hand, "What is it that you need?"

"Ah, Eros are you fimilar with the demigod Nico di Angelo?"

"Yes I am."

"Good." she says and whispers something into Eros' ear.
