Nothing Like The Rest

True Love

Nero's POV

The memories have become hazy, too hazy. I can't even clearly remember Dino again. It's all become a blur.

Why?

"You look like you need a little help."

The air around me suddenly felt cooler, it felt different. It was like the first warning before something horrible happened.

I turned around to look at him, "Chrys."

He still has the same smile he wore that day, full of mischief and trouble. The only difference now is that the only thing he wants for us is death.

"How've you been?" He asked

I sighed and turned around to continue at gazing at the sky, "Ever since you abandoned us? Things have been going as well as they could. Alon lost more than half of his strength, Savanna deserted Olympus, Dino is basically M.I.A and I became so out of control that my strength was taken and hidden at the bottom of Tartarus. Things are great."

He didn't say anything after that, until he did, "It's not my fault, it's hers," His voice was shaky and uneven.

I shook my head and sighed, "When you manage to make yourself believe that then I'll believe it too."

"I don't care about what you think, I just wanted to ask you something before it all starts.," he said.

"Shoot."

"Do you think he hates me?"

Of course that's his major concern, who else has he really cared about? Why not just be honest? There's no way I could lie to him anyway.

I shook my head and answered, "He should hate you by now but he doesn't, he still cares and if you asked me I'd say that he cares too much about trash like you."

He nodded before adding, "One Week." He teleported right before Hermes, Alon and Orion opened the door to the roof.

Hermes, Alon and Orion, for some reason, felt his lingering presence because they all asked the same question with a worried tone, "Chrys?"

~~~~

"Alon stop crying, please," Apollo pleaded to no avail. "Please, for me."

Alon cried harder into Apollo's chest. I looked at Hermes and I could tell that he also wanted to help but if he so much as touched Alon right now then...yeah.

"Wait, so the guy who's girlfriend got cut off by his crazy ex-crush was here?" Alex asked.

"Yes Chrys was here," I answered shortly.

"What did he want from you?" Hermes asked.

"Nothing actually important, he just wanted to know if Alon hated him," I said.

Alex scoffed, "So he came here just to ask if his ex-boyfriend hated him?"

This apparently caught Apollo's attention, "What I'm hearing is that Chrys is going to die by my hands in the most painful ways possible."

Alon pushed himself off Apollo, "You didn't even bother finding out if what Alex said was true but you're already planning on murdering Chrys because he "dated" me. That seems to have become your main hobby."
