"Hey death boy" someone said after kissing my forehead, waking me up. "Hey sunshine" I mumbled to Will Solace, my boyfriend. For the first since Bianca's death, I finally felt comfortable with another person."Breakfast time" Will said, interrupting my thoughts, Will's legs swing off the god awful coffin like beds in the Hades cabin. "You need to eat, doctor's orders" Will said, jabbing me playfully in the ribs. 'Doctor's orders' had been a inside joke since Will made me stay in the infirmary for three days after the war with Gaea. Shortly after, we had become boyfriends. It was a long, complicated story involving the Aphrodite cabin dumping them in the lake. Will and I walked hand in hand to the dining pavilion and we separate to go to our different table. As I plop down at the Hades table, I feel alone. I survey the pavilion. Jason and Percy both sit alone, the Aphrodite kids are gossiping, the Hespestus kids look dejected and sad, from the loss of their counselor. We all miss Leo, even with his annoying, stupid jokes. After he disappeared, I felt his death, but it was different, like he was somehow still alive. I am suddenly alerted by someone sitting next to me, shattering my thoughts. "Will!" I exclaim, shocked. "Chiron will punish you. You're supposed to be at the Apollo table. do you want to clean the dishes for a month?" I hiss. "Meh." He replies, shrugging his shoulders. "when the Romans were here, Chiron didn't punish anyone for sitting at different tables". "Yeah, Annabeth and I sat together for almost a week without anyone noticing" Percy said, sitting across from Me. "Besides, the kids of the big three must be getting lonely" Jason says, sitting next to Percy. Jason and Percy had become close friends after the war. I was glad that my friends had been so accepting of Will and I's relationship. Jason and Piper, however had started jumping up and down, squealing "OTP! OTP!" whatever that meant. Suddenly there was a large crash coming from the hill of Thalia's tree. There was a collective gasp and then stunned silence as everyone noticed the huge, steaming bronze dragon on the crest of the hill with a crazed, scrawny Latino boy sitting on top, grinning like a maniac. Behind him sat a pretty girl wearing a greek chiton. "LEO!!" Piper yelled, breaking the silence, running towards Leo. Piper looked at Leo for a moment, as if she were analyzing him,seeing if he was real. Then, she slapped him hard across the face. Of course, being his friend she gave him a bear hug, crying a little bit. The girl behind Leo looked a little bit uncomfortable as the campers started crowding around them. Leo then explained how he used the physicians cure and went to Ogygia to get Calypso, who was apparently his girlfriend. I was quite shocked with this whole ordeal. " C'mon Nico" Will says behind me, quietly, hugging me. "Yeah." I say, melting into his embrace. Later, when the whole commotion was over, there seemed to finally at peace, after so long of worry.
