Disclaimer: I only own the plot, not the characters.
Chapter 15
Thalia's POV
I am so glad I came with Nico. By the time we were crossing the sky bridge towards Olympus, I was mentally freaking out. The fact there we were way up in the sky didn't help.
"Thalia, calm down, we got this. Hades didn't blast us to bits, and I'm hoping your dad follows his example." Nico said.
"But, what if he doesn't? There are too many risks. We have to go…" I said, before he interrupted me with a kiss.
Nico's lips crashed into mine, and I felt as if all my problems have been washed away, leaving me with a sense of peace. I finally calmed down, and together we walked up towards Olympus.
When we got there, Zeus was currently making a lightning storm somewhere in the world. Then, Nico cleared his throat, catching my dad's attention.
"Lord Zeus, Thalia and I have come here today to inform you that we are now dating, and there is nothing you can do to split us apart, and I swear on the River Styx that I will never break your daughter's heart. I will not betray her. I will always be there for her. You have my word," Nico said.
I was surprised. Nico didn't strike me as the type that would say all that. I thought he was more of a quiet type, only speaking when he has something to say. I braced myself for my father's answer.
"Is that so? Well, normally I would strike down anyone who wanted to date my daughter, but since you have such strong feelings towards her, not to mention that Hades is your father and he would have my hide if I struck you down, I approve of this relationship. I hold you to your promise," Zeus replied.
Whoa. I totally did not expect that to happen. I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding, and I hugged Nico, glad he was still alive.
"Now, off you go. I have some business to attend to. I shall return you to camp, as a favor," Zeus said, before snapping his fingers, sending us back to Camp Half-Blood.
When the light died down, we were indeed back at camp. In fact, we landed on the Big House's roof. I looked down, and paled. So high up…
"Thalia, calm down, I'll get us down," Nico reassured me. He carried me bridal-style, and he jumped off the roof.
"Nico, are you insane?! Do you want to…"I screamed at him, and then I noticed that we weren't falling to our deaths. A bunch of skeleton birds carried us down to the ground safely.
"Whoa, I never knew you could do that," I said, extremely surprised and a bit impressed.
"I just discovered that power a few days ago. Handy when you need to jump off stuff," Nico replied, smiling.
"Well, we should get back to the game. To kill Percy for giving us such a hard dare," I said.
"Alright then, lead the way, Miss Thalia," He bowed.
Everyone was surprised when we came back in, seeing us both in one piece.
"Alright, let's continue the game," Leo said.
Nico spun the bottle, and it landed on… Leo!
Nico then smiled, with that evil grin that was kind of cute.
"Alright Leo, truth or dare," Nico asked.
Leo, being the hyperactive idiot that he is, said, "Dare, Death Boy."
Nico then said, "I dare you to… dress up like a clown, go over to Rachel, and start dancing "I'm Sexy and I Know It" right to her face. When she tries to leave, you must follow her everywhere she goes, until the song is over."
Leo, being the hyperactive idiot (again) said, "Okay!"
Piper then got him a clown suit with a rainbow wig, and he walked towards Rachel's cave.
Everyone else, on the other hand, was following Leo, armed with cameras and camcorders. Then, he started dancing. Right in front of Rachel. Reyna was shaking her head, like she couldn't believe he was actually doing this. Rachel was, however, trying to get rid of Leo. For five minutes, Leo was just chasing Rachel, dressed up as a clown, dancing. And everyone caught it all on tape. By the time Leo was done, Rachel was panting heavily. Then she slapped Leo in the face. Hard. She then marched back to her cave.
Leo then walked back to Percy's cabin, with a still-fresh slap mark on his face. Then we continued the game.
Leo spun the bottle, and it landed on… Travis!
"Travis, truth or dare?"
Alright! Longest chapter ever! Enjoy! And review! I will be starting a reading of the books series soon, so watch for that! Peace out!
