Warning: This chapter talks about suicide and suicidal thoughts.

(Percy's POV)

I could feel myself start to wake up. I heard the beeping of different equipment's. 'Why is there beeping notices? Am I in the hospital?'

I tried to see if I could remember what happened. I remember Nico and Chiron telling me something. I got really upset. I walked to my cabin and then everything goes blurry. I reached up and put a hand on for my forehead. My head was starting to throb. I rubbed my eyes and then I slowly opened them.

I looked around the white room. 'Yep.' I thought to myself. 'I am in the camp hospital.'

I started to remember what happened. After a few minutes of not coming up with anything, it was like I was hit with a semi truck. Everything came back. Mom and Paul was killed and then I tried to kill myself. I watched the door.

After what seemed like hours, Nico walked into the door. He watched me. Before he could say anything, I started talking, "Look, I am so sorry I shouldn't have done this. I know I fucked up pretty bad."

I watched Nico. His face was blank. He had no emotion on it what so ever. After a few minutes, he walked over and hugged me. I was shocked. Nico never lets anyone hug him. He doesn't even let Hazel and that is his sister. I gently hugged him back. I noticed he was being careful of my chest. 

After a few minutes, Nico started shaking. That's when I noticed that he was crying. "Nico move on my lap so I can rock you."

Nico moved on my lap. I wrapped my arms around him and rocked him the best I could. I still didn't have a lot of strength, but I had enough that I could gently rock him. "Shh, its okay. I am alright. I am still alive. You are not going to lose me."

After a while, he slowly stopped crying. He tried to get up, but I didn't let him. "No stay. I like holding you like this."

When I noticed what I said, my face got beat red. Nico looked up at me. "You know, I am trying to be mad at you, but I just can't be for some reason. Now Annabeth, that's a whole other story."

I watched Nico give me a smirk. I knew that smirk all to well. "Nico, what did you do?"

He faked being hurt. "Hey! Now, I never said I did anything!"

I gave him my seriously look. "Now you and I both know that when you smirk like that it means you done something so spill the beans."

With that he explained what him and the seven done to Annabeth. When he was done, I laughed a little. I started coughing so I stopped laughing. Nico started to pat my back. Once I was done, I nodded at him. "Thank you for helping me breath and also what you done to Annabeth. I really didn't want the camp to find out about my attempt that way, but they was going to find out either way."

I gave him a smile. Nico got off my lap and sat on the chair. I noticed the way his eyes would light up when we would talk about certain things. I blushed and looked away. I have had a small crush on Nico since before Annabeth and I broke up. I just ignored it  and kept being with Annabeth. Now that Annabeth and my relationship was over, I could feel my crush for Nico growing. 

I wasn't going to hold it back anymore. If Nico rejected me so what? I lost so much it would hurt but I would get over it. I looked over at Nico. He looked at me in confusion. "Hey are you alright, Percy? You looked flushed."

I nodded. "Yeah but will you lean this way. You got something on your face."

Nico leaned over and started wiping his face. "Did I get it?"

I shook my head. "No, but I will." 

He nodded and looked down at my lips than back up at me. I gave him a smile and leaned over. I gently pressed my lips up against Nico's. Nico seemed shocked. When he didn't kiss back after I a couple seconds, I started to move back. Right when my lips moved off of his, he leaned forward and kissed me. I happily kissed him back.

We kissed for a few minutes. This kiss was the best kiss in the world. When we was done, we both sat back. Our faces was blood red. We both was out of breath. Once we caught our breathes, Nico looked over at me. "Do you like me?"

I nodded my head. "I had a crush on you before Annabeth and I broke up, but I ignored it. I regret doing that now."

He nodded his head. "I like you too, but I think we need to wait before we get together. You just got out of a really bad break up and you just about died. I think we should wait to get together."

It hurt to hear that he wanted to wait together. I knew it was for the best. I smiled at him. "If that's what you want than that is okay with me."

-_-_-_- six months later -_-_-_-

After being in the hospital for about two days, Chiron had me stay in the big house with him for about three weeks. I also had to start having therapy sessions with Apollo twice a week. Since then everything has been good. My life has gotten a lot better. The seven, (We put Nico in Annabeth's spot. So instead of Annabeth being the seventh person, it is Nico.) and I are as close as ever. Nico and I are even closer than anyone else. My crush on him hasn't went away. It has only gotten stronger. 

Nico has been acting weird lately though. Every time, I tried to talk to him about it, he just shot down that he acting weird I just let it go. I didn't want to invade into his privacy to much. I watched Nico pace around the room mumbling to himself.

"Nico, are you okay?" I asked. 

His head shot up at me. "You know what. Fuck it."

I looked at him confused. Nico walked over and sat on my lap. He leaned in and kissed me. I was shocked but I didn't waste a second. I kissed him back. We stayed like that for a a hot minute.

When we was done, he looked at me. "Do you still like me?"

I kissed his forehead and nodded. "Yep. I never stopped."

He smiled at me. "I never stopped likely you either. Everything has calmed down now, so do you wanna get together?"

I nodded happily. "Yeah. I have been waiting forever for us to get together."

He smiled at me. "Also, you wanna know why I was acting so weird?"

"If you wanna tell me than you can. You don't have to tell me."

He smiled at me. "I wanna tell you. I know how close you your mom and Paul was. So I went to see them. I asked them if it was okay if I asked you out. They was okay with it. I was acting weird because I really wanted to tell you. I just didn't know how."

I looked at him in complete shock. "You asked my mom and Paul if you could ask me out?"

He nodded his head nervously. "Yeah."

I looked at him still in complete shock. I grinned from ear to ear. I leaned forward and kissed him. We kissed for a few more minutes. "I am guessing that you are okay that I done that?"

I laughed. "No one has ever done anything as sweet as that. Thank you so much, Nico."

"Your welcome." He smiled at me. "So does that me and you are boyfriends?"

I smiled. "Are you kidding me? Of course!"
