Memories

Leaving Camp

Will's POV:
Poor Nico I felt bad for him having to relieve every single bad memory in your life in front of your friends and I wanted to do was wrap my arms around him and hug him. I thought better of it though considering that he's sitting next to Rayna and Jason who are both extremely overprotective of him like he's their little brother.

His black hair kept falling in front of his beautiful onyx eyes and tear stained face he looked so broken, and so beautiful to me like nothing else matter except him in that moment.

The next memory began it was after the battle of Manhattan at camp half blood and Nico was looking as gorgeous as ever. He was sitting at his table alone as the only hades child at camp he was always alone.

He looked so sad and depressed his gorgeous dark hair falling in front of his beautiful face he always looked beautiful no matter what.

I remembered seeing him sitting at that table in person seeing him looking so gorgeous and all he had wanted to do that day was go over and kiss him. I hadn't though because he was twelve and he had just been made the head of cabin seven and he had so many responsibilities.

I had no time to grieve his brother Michael Yew who had died on the bridge in the battle of Manhattan they hadn't even been able to burn his body because they hadn't been able to find it.

Nico got up from his table he walked around camp for a while and he heard the whispers about him.

"Freak"

"Weirdo"

"Why is he still here"

"Why doesn't he just leave already"

"He never even talks to anyone"

"Look at him he's so creepy"

"He's always by himself"

"What's wrong with him"

Nico kept walking with his head down until he ran into someone who looked very familiar it was me. From Nico's memories point of view I looked like a literal ray of sunshine.

I looked over at Nico then I realized that everyone was looking at me strangely and Nico was looking like he wanted the couch to swallow him up. They weren't even looking at Nico they were all looking at me like they were deciding on where they were going to bury my body.

"Sorry I wasn't watching where I was going" he said "it's ok I'm Will I think we met briefly after Manhattan when I healed you after came up out ground with an army skeletons" I said. "Yeah I remember you also healed Annabeth after she got stabbed with a poison knife in the chest" Nico answered.

"Hey Will we need you the infirmary" my sister Kayla yelled at me "sorry I have to go I'll see you around" Then I left.

I wanted to yell at my past self to go back and talk to Nico, to stop being a dumb ass and talk to my crush.

Nico kept walking till he reached cabin thirteen and grabbed his backpack he wrote a note and left it pinned to his cabin's door.

He was making his way towards the woods when he walked by the lake and saw Percy and Annabeth sitting by the lake together and that must have been Nico's breaking point.

He made his way into the woods when he was tackled by the giant hell hound Miss's O'Learery "hey girl you're going to stay here for a while, I need to figure out some stuff" Nico told her.

"I don't belong here and I never will I don't belong anywhere" he said.

When I heard Nico say that my heart broke and remembered what he had said during the battle between camp Jupiter and camp half blood.

Nico shadow traveled away into the darkness away from camp half blood.

And away from me.
