Chapter 23: Nico's Secret
Hey every one this one is going to be a short chapter. But the next one will be longer. Let me know what you think of this one and I hope you like it.
Nico's POV
I saw Teresa ran over to Poseidon and the others. I sat in the woods to think.
I didn't know if I should tell Teresa about my feeling for someone. But this was before I meant her.
Beside the person I had a crush on is with someone and is happy.
"What's wrong Nico?"
I jumped to see Jason walking over to me alone.
"Just think if I should tell her or not."
I said not know if he would pick up on what I was saying.
"About your little Crush?"
He guessed. I nodded and he sat next to me.
He was the only one that knew about it.
"You should tell her you know."
He said and I looked at him.
"What if she doesn't want me after she finds out who? She might just think I like people like that."
I knew she loved me but this was different.
"If you really love her you will do the right thing. Beside this was years ago and you even said you were over it."
He was right.
"But how do you tell them about that? When is a good time to tell her?"
What if she understands but she feel that I don't want her and that's why I told her? So she could leave."
I said in a shaky voice. I wanted to cry but I wouldn't cry in front of him.
"If she is like Percy she wouldn't do that to you. She would stand by you and love you no matter what."
Jason smiled at me again. I looked down at my feet.
"I'm scared of telling her."
I said after a while. Then I felt him put his hand on my shoulder.
"Fear is normal. We need it, it makes us how we are. There is nothing wrong with some fear in your life. I was scared when we went to Greece. Piper was the one I was afraid of losing but everything turned out ok. Nico just take your time. The right time will come and you will tell her and she will still love you."
He said. Then he stood up.
"If you need to talk more I'm here for you. And think about if you didn't come back to camp and left forever you wouldn't have meant Teresa or have that beautiful baby boy."
Then he left me alone to think. I pulled out the little black box and opened it.
As I stared into the box I smiled. I really wanted to ask her.
But would she say yes? Cause she was a goddess now and I am just a demigod.
I know we wouldn't have a lot of time. But what if she said no?
I closed the little black box and put it back into my black jeans. I wait to ask her till she knows the truth.
I got up and walked out of the woods and headed back to my family. I looked over that them and my heart was hurting for the old love that I felt.
But it burned with happiness when I saw Teresa and Jacob in the water. Jacob was floating and laughing.
I sat on the beach. I really didn't like the water but I was having fun just watching them.
Then Teresa came out and she was in a black tight bikini. Her breast are huge but in that bikini make me want to take her back to her home.
"You ok Nico?"
Teresa said as she got on her knees in front of me dripping wet. I'm so glad my pants were really baggy.
"Yes I'm fine. You look really sexy and I want to have some alone time with you."
I said with a smile. Cause she turned blood red but she was pleased.
"Yea me to. Come join us in the water."
She said and I shook my head.
"I don't like the water. Besides I cant swim."
I said and she smirk.
"I wont let anything happen to you."
She said and I shook my head.
"Ok but if you want we can go and have some fun. Let me ask them if they wouldn't mind watching Jake for a while."
I smiled and watch her run back into the water. It didn't take long and she was back.
Teresa put her pants on and grabbed my hand and we ran into the shadows. We stepped out of the shadows.
"You thing we should move here?"
Teresa said to me. I looked at her.
"Do you want to?"
I asked. I never thought about it.
But this place was hidden the ocean was right there. We could go to the camp any time we wanted to.
"If you don't me I was going to have kid a few years ago. I would say you were crazy I would never want to come back. But now I think it would be a great place to raise our kids."
Teresa said. And I could feel my face go red.
She said kids not kid. Teresa wanted to have more kids made me smile more.
My hand went into my pocket and grabbed the box. Its now or never.
"Teresa I need to talk to you. Then if everything go right I have something to ask you."
I said and she looked at me as he pushed her wet hair out of her face. The smile faded from her face.
"Ok let go inside and I make some tea."
She said and we went in side. After she made some tea she looked at me with a scared look in her sea green eyes.
I took a deep breath and slowly said.
"What I'm about to tell you this was before I ever meant you. I love you more then anything and I love Jacob and I wouldn't want to change anything for us. But when I was younger I had a crush on some one. But that person would never love me back."
I said and she put her hand on top of my shacking hand. She smiled at me and I went on.
"The person I had a crush on is Percy."
I said so low that I didn't think she heard me. I was to scared to look up at her. "You fell in love with Percy. But he's in love with Annabeth. That must have been very hard on you. I'm sorry to hear that. It hurts when you cant have the one you want."
I looked up at her and she was looking down at her cut of tea.
"Your not mad or disgusted of me? For falling in love with a guy but worst he is your brother."
I said I wanted her to yell at me or give me a dirty look. Then she looked up at me with the same eyes that Percy has.
Maybe that's why I fell for her. The eyes are so beautiful and I can stare into them for the rest of my life.
"No I'm not I know I dated a god but I did fall in love with a girl that use to run by my house. I never talked to her and she's a few years older them me a the time. Then she just stop coming around. She was killed by a drunk driver while running at night. I never had the chance to talk to her or anything. But you got to know him and other things. But we both stayed away form every one. That's how I meet Anubis."
She said in a low voice. I didn't know that she like a girl.
But she never got to know her or even talk to her.
"You went to see her grave and that's when you meet him."
I said and she nodded.
"At the time I didn't know he was a god. But every thing happens for a reason." She said as she kissed my hand.
"Was there something you wanted to ask me if things went ok?"
Teresa said as she gave me a loving smile that made my heart beat faster. I pulled my hand back and walked around the table and pulled her away from the table.
Then I got on one knee and pulled out the little black box and opened it.
"Teresa I love you so much and I know you are my soul mate. I would be honored if you would be my wife."
I said but her eyes turned to sorrow and blood tear started to fall from them.
