I hadent seen Nico all day and I was starting to worry, sure he'd been annoyed at me but he normlay comes out for at least one meal. So i take it apon myself to see what happning.

The hades cabin sticks out like a sore thumb so I start there. I knock on the door calling Nicos name and im met with no response. The cabins dont have locks but in the cabins with one or two people in them its become custom to not really enter without them letting you in. But I didnt really think as I was becoming more scard for Nico.

I banged the door down and am met with a empty cabin. Im about to leave when i hear a small wimped commiing from the floor next to nicos bed. "Nico hon?" I call out still silance greets me. I walk over to the side.

And thats when I see him.

Curled into a ball his shirt sleeve soaked in blood while nico violently vibrates. A steal knife layed on the floor next to him.

"NICO" I gasp before rushing to his side. He looks at me with glassy teary eyes and i almost break down at the sight. Gripping his arm to stop the blood I try to rember if hes had any other meltdowns like this but none come to mind. I knew Annabeth was autistic but not as high as nico and she was t here now so he started wining it. "Nico breath with me please baby." I ramble placing his hand on my cheast showing him my breathing. On his bed a weigted blanket lies and i breifly let go of his arm to grab the blanket and place it on his legs

lesson number 27: during the stage of a panic attck or a meltdown the person will often resort to self harming as a way to hold themself in place and 'grounding themselves' to try to stop this place sonething weigted(blanket stuffed toy anothing with weight) on ther lap wich shohld calm them down.

I replayed that section in his head as I slowly rocked back a forward still showing Nico his breathing trying to get nico to rock with him.

*okay quick break im reverting to second person as idk how many times i've had to correcr what i've written to be first person so if that annoys you idc i cant write in first anymore now back to nico and will!*

Will had his fair share of ADHD meltdowns some in wich nico helped him through. He knew rocking really helped him and he hoped it would belp nico.

After what seemes like hours Nicos breathing went back to normal and he stoped shaking tears still streamed down his face but will knew he was over the meltdown. "Nico baby im so sorry so so sorry you had to go through that I cant belive how scary that must have been." Nico just nodded and fell into wills arms. Smiling will held him in a tight embrace. Nico shifted and will brushed over nicos cut arm winsing as he did. "Oh baby how could you" will said breaking down. It hurt will so much to see Nico like this and was determined to try and help
