OMG you guys comment or something! Tell me how bad it is if you have too! I'm just sitting here, alone with my thoughts, wondering what you guys think! Seriously, it's driving me insane! Also, how have the chapter lengths been? Too short? Too long? Just right? Yes? Maybe? No? Ok, I'm done. Read on. 😄😁

Percy's POV

Did that really just happen?

Did Annabeth really just break up with me? Well, obviously, but what did she mean about loving him? Who is him? ((HTTYD anyone?))

Annabeth left a while ago but I stayed behind to sort some things out. How could Annabeth think I don't love her? I do! Of course I do! I fell into Tartarus for her! I held up the sky for her! How could I love anyone else? It makes no sense...

I began looking around at the surrounding trees, not really focusing on anything just consumed in my thoughts when I heard a sharp intake of breath.

Oh no.

Either somebody heard us, or I'm about to become some monsters breakfast.

I stared toward the place where I heard the noise and started walking up to it. My fingers curled around the pen in my pocket and I heard the creature scramble back away from their hiding spot.

Okay, too light to be a monster. Unless they've started stocking miniature sized ones instead.

I used the hand not in my pocket to push aside some of the leaves and greenery that were blocking the area. If I stopped moving I could hear quiet gasps coming directly from my left. Obviously too quiet to be a monster, probably some lost first year.

I let my guard down, but only slightly. I'd been almost dead more times than I'd like to admit. Slowly turning to my left, I faced the direction I had heard the noise and sprang toward it, only to find a sprawled out Nico on the floor.

"Jeez Percy, there's no need to give me a heart attack," he called, obviously shaken up.

"Yes, because I'm the one sneaking around the bushes," I replied sarcastically.

"I wasn't sneaking," he mumbled, "I was resting." He got up and dusted off the dirt from his black, ripped skinny jeans and readjusted the sword strapped to his waist.

"Resting you say? Um, Nico... How much did you hear/see exactly?"

His eyes widened in shock and his mouth opened slightly, like he was trying to work up the courage to say something.

"W-well," he began, "you and Annabeth were having a fight, weren't you?"

I nodded.

"A-and she mentioned something about... About you loving someone," he finished.

It was my turn to stare in surprise. How much did he hear exactly? And why is he here to begin with? Didn't he swear he was never coming back to this place? I decided to just ask him.

"I dunno, I just felt like it," was his dismissing reply, like he was trying to sound casual but he was actually really panicked on the inside.

"Well," I said, choosing to ignore his obvious lie, "we should get you back to Cabin 13. You look exhausted."

"Gee thanks. You look like a bundle of daisies too! Glad you noticed," he deadpanned. He obviously wasn't in the mood for small talk.

"Right this way," I said, motioning in the direction toward camp. He looked at me suspiciously but followed me anyways, looking around tensely as if he expected a monster to pop out at any moment. It was entirely possible.

[Time Skip To When They Get Back To Camp Because Their Walk Through The Woods Is Boring Because Nico Is Too Embarrassed To Say Anything And Percy Is Being Awkward For Reasons]

Still Percy's Beautiful Mind

When we got back to his cabin he all but collapsed on the floor. Actually he did collapse but, me being the manly man I am, I caught him and carried him over to his bed in the farthest and darkest corner of the room. Gently setting him down, I was about to look around for a blanket to cover him up with when the door flew open and hit the wall with a loud bang! I whirled around to see Jason standing there with a panicked expression so I put a finger to me lips and I widened my eyes in the universal 'stfu! What the hell are you doing making so much noise!' pose. He held his hands up in surrender and then quickly averted his gaze to the sleeping boy next to me. Unconsciously I looked down too.

Still sleeping like a log... Well, more like a rock.

"What's he doing here?!" Jason whisper yelled.

"I don't know! When I tried asking him he just kind of shrugged it off. He was so exhausted I was practically dragging him into camp and then he just... Fell asleep I guess."

"Well, what're you going to do?"

"What are you talking about?!"

"Percy," he said in a low voice, "Annabeth told us what happened."

"Oh." I looked down at my feet. I had completely forgotten what happened in the time I was with Nico.

"Does he know?"

"Does who know? About what?"

Jason gave an exasperated sigh.

"Gods Percy, you can be so dense sometimes! Nico! Does Nico know about you and Annabeth!?"

I snuck a glance at the sleeping boy. Still snoring. He looks kinda cute. Like a puppy.

"Oh, erm, yeah I guess. He was sorta there, hiding in the bushes." Jason's eyes widened and then his face broke out into a huge smile. He kept on staring at me like he could see into me soul.

"Jason, dude, you're freaking me out."

He ignored me.

"Can you stay here and watch Nico? I gotta go... Do something."

"Sure I guess but why.."

He was already gone.

And so here I am, sitting in a really comfy chair at the edge of Nico's bed. Watching him sleep like a stalker.

This is not how I imagined today would go.

So, I've been waiting for someone to comment so I could publish this but... I've held it off for too long. Comments and votes make me post faster!!

Anywayyyys, there are 2 ways this could go.

1). Nico was awake during Jason's and Percy's loud conversation and "wakes up" when he's sure Jason is gone.

Or

2). Nico wakes up to adorable Percy sleeping with his face on the mattress.

You choose!

I actually have one that I like more but they're both adorable soooo.... COMMENT!

That is all
