storycat12, I love ya! And I'm just assuming you're a girl, so thanks, sista! You're reviews are nice and just… :)

Anyways, here's chapter 3.

PS-I kinda got tears writing this

PS2-"Fudging" is an alternative for…ya know…yeah

Mori's POV

I didn't slap him…I BITCH slapped him. All the memories and feelings I've had for the past year make me explode. "What the hell?" I scream. "What the fudging hell, Nico! You think you can just be all, Oh, I'm Nico, and I'm not dead! Well, you can't! And why the fudge did you take my place?" I yell. Tears threaten, making me angrier. "Huh? There's a reason I dove, Nico!"

Anger flares in his eyes. "Then what is it?" He yells. "Tell me that, Mori!"

I look around at all the confused campers around us and growl. "That's it," I mumble. I step forward and grab Nico's arm. "Clearing. Now,"

He shadow travels us to our clearing and I immediately begin to yell, "Why did you take my place?" I scream.

He fires back, "Why did you take that knife?"

I throw my hands in the air, pacing. "For you, ya jackass!"

He grunts. "Why? I almost died when I lost you!"

I yell. "Ah! I died because I loved you, ya jackass! You freaking jackass! But no, then you have to go play hero and take my damn place!" Angry tears fall freely. "You left me! You left me! I was about to kill myself!" I sob. "I lost everything! My mom. My aunt. You. I hate my dad now, if you didn't know. I haven't talked to him in a year! All because you left. You left me all alone!" I sob again, quietly.

Nico's eyes soften and he takes a step forward. "Baby," He whispers.

I shake my head, backing away from him. "Don't. Don't."

Nico rubs his temples and sighs. "Loved?"

I nod. "I thought I had lost you," I admit. "I loved you. You were my world…" I cock my head. "How are you back, anyways?"

He shakes his head. "It's a long story,"

I shrug, my back already sliding down a tree. "I'm not going anywhere,"

He smiles.

"Hypnos swore he wouldn't harm any of your friends and family." Nico explains from the other side of the clearing. We had agreed being next to each other wasn't the smartest thing to do right now.

I nod. "But he didn't. He killed me,"

He returns the nod. "While he was trying to kill me. He broke the oath. I don't know all the details; just that he broke the oath and when I woke up, you were gone,"

I swallow hard. "I lost you, my mom, my aunt, and my dad. I thought I was a burden. That no one wanted me around. So I left,"

Nico shakes his head. "We'll talk about this later. But I'm almost 100% sure you need to talk to Annabeth about being in the wedding."

I cock my head. "Wedding?"

He nods, smiling. "Percy finally asked. Didn't you notice the ring?"

I shake my head. We both stand and start to walk out of the forest, me whistling, 'Here comes the bride' along the way.

Nico's laugh echoes in the forest.

Wellll? Review!
