Graces Pov

Lately I've been feeling sick, as in I'm really nervous sick.  It only happens when Nico is around and I find it really weird because I felt the same way for a boy that i always saw buy happy meals at McDonald's. I felt like there were thousands of little butterflies in my stomach.  I was walking around camp right now looking for something to do. Normally I would go talk about good books with Annabeth or do sword fighting with Percy but today everyone went to visit family but me. No one knew that i was a homeless kid for 5 years except Chiron. I went to the archery area and shot my bow that I had made from scratch. I had gotten used to making the camps armour and weapons but I usually worked on more advanced stuff like technology. I decided to explore the camp and found a secret doorway witch read,
The forges of Hephaestus. Only go in if you are a child of mine.
I got confused and entered only to find half made stuff that looked old. I soon found a map and next to it a toll belt exactly like Leo's except mine was black and purple with a skulls on it. I put my hand in it and got a gear out. It was bigger on the inside than it was on the outside.  I put it on and walked around until I found a dragon machine like festus but a girl. It was called festa and it was black with a long line of white. I looked at the mainframe and saw a bunch of switches that were off. I turned all the switches on and stepped back as the dragon turned on and looked at me with its glowing, yellow eyes. I heard it creak and moan as it got up. I pat it's nose and climbed on to the seat on the back. I watch as the roof opens up for my dragon to fly out catching a glimpse of the name on it, Festa. I fly around and see Leo with Festus. The two dragons creaked and groaned to each other as Leo stares at my tool belt. I grab his arm and take him to the secret forges of Hephaestus. I heard Nico yell at the entrance and I use the switches to stop the defensive mode letting Nico in. I looked at a pair of metal wings and look at the automations of animals there. Nico looked around amazed at what he saw in there before looking at my new style with the skulls on my tool belt. Oh crap, the feelings back and I'm pretty sure Leo noticed because of the highly inappropriate hand gesture, causing me and Nico to blush. Without warning i tackled him to the ground and we tarted fighting until he pushed me onto Nico, causing both of us to fall over. I got up and looked at Leo with the most hateful glare, one that would make Hades glare look like a smiley face with cupcakes and rainbow sprinkles. Leo noticed and ran for his life. I started chasing him until we both ended up in Percy's cabin." Get over here you little shit."" No your mean to me. You don't see Nico trying to murder me."" That's because he's not me, so stop shipping us."" Never gonna happen sis." We argued like this for hours, Percy holding me back and Leo hiding behind Jason. Soon I went to bed, got my monster proof phone out, and started listening to my favorite song, demons. I started thinking about the feeling before realising what it was.

I am in love with Nico Di Angelo.
