Nico spotted Andy a few times during the next day. It seemed whatever free time he had was spent reading the book she gave him. He would pull it straight out of his back pocket right after he finished tasks and chores he was given. She didn't talk to him at all preferring to wait till he finally finished the book. She also kept her distance to avoid looking over his shoulder when he was reading. She always hated it when it occured in her life and wouldn't wish that great discomfort on anyone.

She finally got his attention when he closed the book. He had been so engrossed, so determined he hadn't noticed her presence at all." You decided to read the entire thing in one day?" He shrugged a little embarrassed.

" I don't really have that much going on. I thought you would want your book back eventually. Plus my mom for the home schooling wanted me to read and describe what i read.Besides it got better and better with every page I turned. The twists and the great betrayals. I couldn't believe half of what I read. You have the best taste in literature Nico."

" At least one of us got to finish it. And one of your old hopes finally came true." He was a literally perplexed at her comment and couldn't quite remember what she was talking about.

" You used to talk about wanting to be home schooled. How is it anyway? My friend Chase has been complaining but mostly bitching about it and dreading it. My other friends are a little curious about it as well."

" Some contributions my mom made along with really assisting with the infirmary. I even once donated blood to help save someone. Universal doner." He said proudly handing her the book. " Could I show you some drawings? I was working on this one. Only wish I could have brought over some copies of my best work. You know the pictures I always used to send over."

Nico smiled seeing once again one of his wolf drawings. In the past she occasionally used them for the background and wallpaper on her phone. They was always ferocious and unqiue. She couldn't turn down the chance to see another one. " Is this from before or after you heard about Fenris?"

" Kind of both. I already knew what I was gonna draw then I heard about Fenris the wolf Andrea and Andreas. It's awesome how me and my sisters powers come from them. "

" Don't have blind admiration or heroic assumptions about them. Just a warning Andy." Nico told him. She didn't want to crush his hope of being related to someone with power snd influence but hid heroic fantasy could blow up in his face. " We could do more research on both of them together."

" That's great. But I gotta so you one more thing." He led her outside near some junk and trees. He cracked his knuckles and obliterated a couple things around them. He was smiling and trying to shower off. Nico had a small smile as she observed the rubble and fragments that remained of his targets. He tried to finish it off by getting rid of a large tree but his devastating slightly unfocused action sent splinters and small branches toward them.

" Nico!" Nothing was life threatening or too damaging but he felt so stupid. Ashamed that he got them hurt for trying to impress her.

He had his face in his hands as some blood went down his hands and arm from losing some skin on his knuckles and palms. A cut on his cheek and neck. " I'm an idiot. So stupid and excited. "

Nico actually was better off then he was. Most likely a bandage on her leg and to clean the cuts on her face." It's nothing. Your not some jerk who msde excuses. Your Andy aka Chaos someone who isn't perfect. Now maybe you could be someone who accompanies me to getting some medical treatment. "

She helped him up putting her arm around him. Nico knew now Andy was afraid of messing up and ruining or taking someone's life. He didn't look his mother in the eye." I screwed up mom. I messed up." Catlin Strucker helped out Nico as well.

" This is t-t-he friend I told you about. I tried to act like I was in better control of myself. Got her hurt."

" Nico Minoru. Me and Andy knew each other from online." Nico told her." He's beating himself up over nothing. Blowing it out of proportion. "

" Online?" Catlin waited till after watching Nico calm down and relax her son. " Your the friend he was telling me about." Andy looked away in embarrassment. "I think I could use a few more details. And a little talk with both of you. Well a couple of them. She said looking at both of them.
