So I finally updated. Yeah, sorry about that. I hope you like and please review. I'll give you an imaginary hug!

OMG, she likes me (but as a friend)

Nico's POV

A few days after the Capture the Flag game, the entire camp had already started to make ideas on how to make the Helios cabin. Apparently Gwen was in it as well, but she didn't want to be consoler, so she gave the job to her younger sister, Selena. Poor Selena. But now she was suddenly really popular. I thought maybe we could be friends, but now that she had tons of people trying there was no point. Uh, my life sucks. No friends; and the one person I thought could be my friend probably does not want to be in a fifty-mile radius of me.

This was how I had been since the Capture the Flag game, stuck in my own thoughts. That was, until I heard a knock on my door. I sighed and ignored it.

Then whoever it was knocked again. Why do these people never leave me alone. Maybe if I ignore them, they'll go away.

Well guess what.

My plan didn't work.

Why is it so hard to leave someone alone? Why did this person have to keep knocking? Finally, after ten minutes of knocking, I opened the door to glare at whatever son of Hermes had some bad idea to try and prank the Hades cabin.

But lets just say, as you saw earlier, not everything is as it seems and not everything you try work.

As I yanked open the door, Hades death-glare on whoever was standing there, I saw who was standing. There. In front of the Hades cabin, in her usual jeans and t-shirt was Selena Pevensie in the flesh looking really annoyed.

'Can I come in?' she asked. I shrugged not really caring. After a minute of both of us just standing there, I got a bit… impatient.

'Well, are you going to come in?' I asked, annoyance dripping into my voice.

'I would, but you're kind of standing in the way,' replied she in a casual manner. I blushed and stepped quickly out of the way. She walked inside, looking quite at home.

'Nice place,' she stated, not looking a bit nervous by the black and the skulls and the eerie green torches.

'Thanks.'

'I haven't really seen you around lately,' she said again, as though trying to start a conversation.

'I know.'

'Do I really smell that bad?' she asked trying to crack a joke. But I didn't smile. No, now she was one of them, the people with friends and family and popularity. The rarity that was preferred, like how Percy was a son of Poseidon, but I was a son of Hades.

'No,' I said before I could stop myself.

'Then why are you avoiding me?'

'Because, you have other friends now, and you would probably prefer to hang around them then the awkward son of Hades.'

She was silent for a few minutes before she continued.

'You mean you thought that I considered those imbeciles following me around my friends?' she asked me in an amazed tone. 'I thought you were smart!'

'What are you talking about,' I couldn't help but ask.

'I only really have one true friend at this camp Nico di Angelo,' she continued. 'It's you.'

I blinked hard before pinching myself, then cursing.

'Why the hell did you just pinch yourself for?' asked Selena.

'Making sure I'm not dreaming' I answered. 'Because that would really suck.'

She started to chuckle and I soon couldn't help but laugh along. Her laugh, it was contagious, I swear. After around fifteen minutes of us laughing for no apparent reason, we both calmed down.

'You know,' I started. 'I was thinking-'

'Oh gods,' interrupted Selena, 'someone call 9-1-1 we have an emergency, Nico di Angelo actually thinking! It's the end of the world!'

And then we started laughing again, and everything just felt right; the feeling that somehow, everything was going to turn out okay. Hadn't felt this way in a long time, not since Bianca had passed away.

And I suddenly knew that everything was going to turn out okay.

PLEASE REVIEW!

I'll give you an imaginary hug!
