The Sun and Moon

Infirmary (Part 2)

Nico's PoV

If he doesn't want to be friends with me I'll just leave camp maybe I could move to dads palace I already have a room there I just have to move my stuff.

Yeah thats what I'll do, I hope it didn't come to that though which is weird cause that's what I originally planned to do guess that my visit to the infirmary really did change me.

My thought bubble was burst by Will who had just entered the room with my steak, and fresh non blood covered clothes wow I must have been thinking for a long time if he had had the time to change.

I was so nervous should I tell him about the magic thing he would probably be upset that I had let so many people die without even trying to save them like he did. Maybe he would forget about it and not say anything.

"Nico, hello?" Will said waving his hand in front of my face which made me snap out of my trance.

"Sorry just zoned out"

"No problem, now are you gonna tell me how you did that cool death sensing thing or whatever? Was it like a one time thing or can you do it whenever you want? Wow you must've saved a lotta people if you have that ability." He rambled on

Oh gods how was I gonna say this. I hadn't ever tried to save anyone I just sensed them and let it be. I mean death was not that bad right? Maybe to some people.

"Well I can do it whenever I want but...I never really used it t-to like s-save anyone."

Oh gods the look on his face he looks so disgusted and hurt.

"So you could've saved so many people but you didn't even try? You just let them die?!" He screamed

"Y-yeah k-kinda."

"What's wrong with you why wouldn't you save people?!"

"I never thought to use it that w-way?"

"Your disgusting!" He spat and stormed out of the room.

Tears pricked my eyes and I covered my face with my hands. Why did I have to ruin everything why couldn't I just be normal and not ruin everything I touch!?

I pushed my uneaten steak to the side of my plate kept it away and lay down waiting for sleep to take me.

It was the worst sleep I had in ages I tossed and turned while the nightmares came one by one. The worst part was when I walk up though.

I woke up to someone shaking me.

"It's to early Will." I croaked out

"I'm not Will. I'm Rose and before you say anything just know that I'm not happy about treating you Freak!" some one spat at me.

"It's afternoon so I just came to wake you up and get you some food." She said while keeping a plate near me.

"Eat the whole thing otherwise I'll come and shove it down your throat." She threatened and then left the room

Gods what had I ever done to deserve such a life!

I picked up the plate and choked down the food since I wasn't really used to eating by the time I had finished the huge plate I felt quite sick.

I ran to the bathroom and promptly threw up the entire meal washed my hands and went to sit on the bed.

I waited for Will, praying that he would still pop by for a chat.

I waited for two hours I think before finally giving up and going to sleep.

Will's PoV

Ok I know I was kinda rude.....maybe a lot rude but how could I not be! He was literally doing the opposite of what I did! How could you have such a power and not use to save people and just let them die?!

I ran my hands through my hair in frustration, my siblings and sensed something was wrong and didn't tell me to go to my shift, I worked the hardest and they knew I sometimes needed a break.

It was almost 12 and I knew someone had probably checked on Nico and given him breakfast. I just hoped it was not Rose she was pretty mean to him that day.

I shook the thought out of my head, he deserved it if he got Rose I didn't care anymore he was disgusting.

I was glad this was his last day in the infirmary I didn't want to go there tomorrow and see his face. I got out of bed washed my face and went for lunch, I had missed breakfast and I was starving.

I took the long route since lunch didn't start until one. I passed the infirmary and peeked inside to see how they were coping without me. The view unfortunately was into Nico's room, he was sitting on the bed waiting for someone? Who could he possibly be waiting for? Jealousy burned in my veins. Then I realised I was being ridiculous why in the world would I be jealous of someone who Nico was waiting for, very eagerly I may add?

I walked around for another half an hour or so before heading for lunch I squeezed in between Kayla, my favourite half-sister and Rose who was looking annoyed

I scanned the neighbouring Hephaestus and Demeter tables for new kids but my eyes unwillingly flicked t the Hades table where Nico was supposed to be sitting. Wait a minute, NICO WAS SITTING THERE WHAT WAS HE DOING OUT OF THE INFIRMARY!!

I turned to Rose and asked "Why is your patient out without your consent?" as calmly as possible which was not very calm.

"I dismissed him from the infirmary he was perfectly fine except for his freakiness but I can't really cute that can I". She said loud enough for him to hear. The whole table burst out in laughter while I glanced at Nico who was just staring at his plate without moving.

He hadn't eaten anything but he got up and walked towards his cabin. I was the only one who noticed how his knees and buckled when he stood up and how pale he looked, the rest of the table was still laughing at Rose's joke.

I couldn't believe how mean my siblings could be, I guess I didn't really experience it much cause I only saw their nice side in the infirmary treating sick patients.

I went back to my cabin and lay on the bed to think. I had only come here last summer and never met Nico before but I didn't really understand why they were being so rude he seemed ok, so why did
everyone hate him so much? What had he ever done?

I decided to find out more about Nico and why he was hated. I got up and went to his cabin to talk to him. I stopped at the door. What if he hated me and didn't want to speak? I did leave him and got Rose to look after him my train of thought suddenly stopped when I realised that the door was half open.

And there were people inside, who could possibly be meeting with Nico and why did it sound like they were breaking everything?
