A/N Hey y'all! Tell me what you think of the end of this one!

Chapter 3: Trouble in Death

It was nearly 7:10 when Percy and Seth got down to the beach, even thought the cabin was only about twenty yards from the shore. "Sorry we're late!" Seth called as they ran down to the water. "We were... uhhh... preoccupied. he muttered, grinning at Percy.

"Uh huh." Will complained. "I'm sure shoving your tongues down each others throats was very distracting!"

"Oh leave them alone, Will. You're the one that got them together." Annabeth chided gently.

"Whatever." Will mumbled, "come on you guys! Let's get going."

"What do you mean? I thought this was the date." Seth replied, confused.

"Nope! We're going to dinner and a movie in the city"

"Ooh! Fancy!" Percy commented.

~Four hours later~

When they arrived back at camp, Will and Annabeth went to the Athena cabin and Seth and Percy headed towards Poseidon cabin. They were passing by Hades when Percy realized that the light was on inside. Nico was back!

'Oh no!' Percy thought 'This is not a good time for Nico to be back!'

Seth noticed that Percy had tensed up. What's wrong, Perce?" he asked, suddenly concerned.

"It's nothing, Seth. Don't worry about it" Percy lied, walking faster. Suddenly, the door opened and there stood Nico di Angelo, looking much older than thirteen.

"Percy!" he exclaimed, suddenly very happy.

"Hey, Nico." Percy replied with fake enthusiasm. "I didn't think you were gonna be back 'til next month."

"I missed you guys too much!" Nico explained. "Plus I was starting to get on Persephone's nerves again." he muttered sheepishly. He looked down and noticed Percy and Seth's intertwined fingers. "So... uhhh... who is this?" he asked, skeptically, sizing up the sun-kissed boy.

"Ummm... Nico, this is my, uhhh boyfriend. Seth." Percy stumbled through the words.

"Y-your b-b-boyfriend?" Nico stuttered. "When? How long did you wait before you got with him? Is he the only one? How many-"

"Nico!" Percy shouted. "I waited four months! While you were gone, I broke up with Annabeth. That was two months ago. Seth and I have been together for about six hours. Me and you were over, Nico! You ended it before you left! I finally got over you and moved on! Now it's your turn to move on. Okay?"

Percy, I only ended it because I thought you were still in love with Luke! Even after six months. You never really seemed to be happy with me, so I assumed you still weren't over him. I thought that his death made it worse for you!"

"I got over Luke after a week or two! He never really loved me! You did! At least, I thought you did. I was never really happy because I wanted to tell everyone about us, but you wouldn't even let me tell my girlfriend that I was gay! I told her you know! And Will Solace! I'm not dead yet!"

"Well if you're so happy about it, go shout it to the rest of camp!"

"Fine! I will! Just watch me!" Percy yelled. He walked up to the Hypnos cabin door and knocked. When it opened, he shouted "I'm gay and this is my boyfriend!" pointing to Seth, at the poor girl who had opened it. He walked across to Nemesis and repeated the knocking and shouting routine. He continued this process until he had yelled at the entire camp. Even the Big House. He then looked up at the sky and shouted as if to the stars, "Hear that? I'm gay!" he turned to Nico and asked, "Happy? 'Cuz I am!" he grinned and took Seth's hand again. "I'm sorry, Nico, but I've moved on and so should you."

Nico glared at Seth and turned to a smiling Percy. He pulled back and swung, aiming for Percy's face with a closed fist. Seth pounced, tackling Nico to the ground. "Don't touch my Percy!" he growled, menacingly, getting to his feet.

Percy put his arm around Seth's shoulders, kissed his cheek and lead him on to the cabin. This was one of the only times that Percy was thankful of having a cabin to himself.

'What am I going to do about Nico, though?' he thought as he laid in bed next to Seth. He fell asleep with Seth in his arms, but Nico in his thoughts.

Percy woke up and Seth wasn't beside him anymore. He opened his eyes and scanned the cabin, but Seth wasn't anywhere to be seen. Percy got out of bed and pulled on jeans and an orange camp t-shirt. He left the cabin and went to look for Seth in the dinning pavilion and the Apollo cabin. He was about to head to the lake when he heard the scream. It was Seth's!
