Hey friends, pals, and amigos! I just figured out that I'll always be awesome! On with the story!
Disclaimer: I know you all wish so badly that I did but I do not on PJO.
Nico POV
Oh Hades. Really, right now? Poseidon was gentle gliding our boat back to shore. It was much faster but I wasn't sure I wanted to get anywhere quickly.
Thalia sighed unhappily.
"What's up?"
"Nothing'" she said.
"Yeah, right Thals. You know everything is up."
"It's my dad he's just so stupid. I wish he could just leave me alone so I could be be happy."
"Yeah. But after this is all over we can go back to being us whether your dad likes it or not." I said sternly.
"Nico you know it's not gonna be that easy. It never will be for us or for any demigod."
"Hey, a guy can hope," I said.
The boat shook slightly signaling we were back on the shore. All along the sands of Fireworks Beach were campers preparing for battle. I couldn't believe we were putting this many lives at risk. We're such bad people. Some of the gods were there already too. Aphrodite was there reapplying her make-up. I honestly don't know what help she'll be, but we could use all the help we could get. Apollo was there too. I looked up into the sky. Cloudy. Ehh, what good is driving the sun chariot if you can't even see the sun? Demeter was also there discussing something with Katie. Probably something about plants, boring.
I hopped out the boat and helped Thalia out like the gentleman that I am. Pshh, yeah right. But I did help her.
"Hey guys," Percy said walking over with Annabeth. They brought us battle armor to put on too. We put it on as they continued talking.
"Hey," Thalia said smiling.
"Why are you happy?" Annabeth asked.
"Cause I have Nico duh."
I smiled at her and she laughed.
"I love you," I said. I leaned into kiss her but we were rudely interrupted.
"Hey guys," I looked over to see my sister Alie.
"Hi," I said.
"Nico? Who's that?" I slapped my hand over my forehead. Thalia and Alie had never met.
"Thalia, this is my sister, Alie. Alie, this is my girlfriend, Thalia."
"Ohhh. So this is the famous Thalia Nico never shuts up about," Alie said smirking.
Thalia blushed as I elbowed Alie in the ribs.
"Owww, Thalia your boyfriend's abusive."
"Bad boy," Thalia said smirking mischievously.
"Ew. That's gross. I'm leaving."
We laughed as Alie went over to Connor and they hugged. And me and Thalia were the nasty ones... yeah we were.
"Well isn't it my two best masterpieces since Romeo and Juliet," Aphrodite said.
"Why do you call us masterpieces?" Annabeth asked.
"Because, silly girl, love is like a masterpiece. Each is different but beautiful, in its own way." I looked at Thalia and she took my hand. I knew she was thinking the same thing as me. We were different but together we were perfect. Ugh, I think when you know "THE END" is near you get all mushy and sentimental. "THE END" needs to come a little less often, children of Hades aren't supposed to be mushy.
"Aw. You two," Aphrodite said, "are super cute. I did good with you guys. I'm proud of myself." The love goddess walked away not saying anything else.
"Come here," I whispered to Thalia. I walked over to Apollo holding Thalia's hand.
"Mister Apollo... dude... sir," I didn't know how to say this. "Thank you, so much."
"Heyyyyy, Nico my man. No worries. Some one who makes my little sis happy is cool with me. You break her heart though, I break your face."
I swallowed. "Understood."
"Alright, run along you little rugrats."
"That was very nice of you,"Thalia said.
"Thank you." She snuggled into my shoulder while still walking. We walked into the woods and climbed up our tree. We sat closer to the trunk for more support and on the top branches. I looked up into the sky.
"I wish I could see the stars," I said.
"I see one," Thalia said. I looked down at her confused. "You," she whispered in my ear. Our noses brushed against each other and soon we were kissing.
"Ewww," Percy said on the branch under us.
I kicked him in the head and continued kissing Thalia. Percy whimpered and Annabeth being a softy kissed his head where I kicked him.
"Thank you Annie," Percy said. Thalia and I busted out laughing. It was so weird, and we were not expecting it.
"Come on let's go back to camp." We climbed down the tree one by one and went back to camp being as normal as possible. As normal as you can get before "THE END".
I was getting sick of this. Why did it have to be us? I just wanted to be a teenager, to be in love. I guess its okay that I'm a demigod because 1. I never would've met Thalia and 2. I would probably dead with how old I am (Thank you Lotus Casino).
Some of the campers were setting out sleeping bags on the beach. The soft sounds of the waves were putting me asleep already. Thalia and I crawled into a two person sleeping bag. She snuggled her into my chest and I put my chin on the top of her hair.
"I love you, Nico."
"I love you, too, Thals." A few minutes later she was sleeping. I fell asleep too listening to her steady breathing.
"Morning sleepy head."
"Uhhh," I grumbled. "I don't wanna!"
Thalia giggled. "If you get up I'll give you a good morning kiss."
I hopped into a sitting position and puckered my lips. Thalia kissed me and walked away. I stared at her while she walked.
"You're whipped dude," Percy said patting my shoulder.
"At least we're engaged. You don't even have the guts to ask her to go on a date to her face. You have to ask her over the computer, and you guys are already dating."
"Don't judge me," Percy said dejected.
"Its cool, dude. The things we do for our girls." We started laughing together.
"Percy! Can you help me with the rations?" Annabeth said.
"Coming!" I put on my armor and head over to Thalia and helped her move some fire wood.
"Where does this go?"
"In that pile over there," Thalia said pointing. "Sorry about tricking you."
"It's alright, but can I get a real kiss now?"
"Fine," she leaned in to kiss me. Before she could the ground shook and thunder rumbled. The sky darkened. Everyone turned the heads to the sky. Descending was Zeus, king of the gods. And his army.
"PREPARE FOR THE FIGHT OF YOUR LIVES!"
A/N: Sorry I haven't updated. Hope this helps. And sorry for the OOCness.
