Starts at the same time with the last chapter except with Nico's point of view on third person.
Hogwarts was great. The classes weren't boring, nobody avoided him because his dad was the Lord of the Underworld and now, some people were actually starting to accept him. All good and all, Nico decided, but he still missed camp. Nothing could change that.
At least there, no girls would jump out at him like rabid hyenas on a body.
"Elena," He said, taking the girl's hand off his shoulder where it rested. "You mind? I'm trying to eat here."
Elena Atrocia pouted at him, sticking out her lower, thick, dark red lip at him which was, in no absolute way, seducing. "Oh, come on, Nico!" She cooed. "Have some fun with me for a sec. Maybe we can go back to the common room, you know. I have a free first period..."
Nico shoved her off his back. "Don't care." He muttered. "Lay off."
She didn't back down yet. "Come on, hon, don't be so..."
Completely annoyed now, Nico turned to her with his eyes smoldering in his worst glare. In a second, she was off him and had ran to the farthest aside of he table. Sighing, Nico just continued eating while rubbing his temples. Some girls just can't take a hint, can they?
Scorpius slid in next to him with an eyebrow raised. "Not that it doesn't amuse me but, what did you do?" He asked him.
"I just glared at her." The boy answered with a shrug then turned to look at Scorpius. "How do you handle them?"
He smirked. "Something tells me you're not used to this kind of attention."
Nico wasn't amused. "You think?" He said. "In my...school, people usually avoid me because I'm weird and they have a thing against my father. Not all of them, mind you, but...you know."
"Why? What does your father do?"
Nico knew that his was just genuinely curious. There was nothing in Scoroius voice that hinted that he needed information from him or something. If anything, he could hear sympathy. He hated sympathy if it was directed towards him, but he was too grateful for his friend being not nosy.
He thought for a while. "He manages the bank and the prison." He said easily.
Scorpius looked impressed. "The bank AND the prison?" He asked. "Your father must be really influential. Why would they have a thing against him?"
"Because he personally manages the prison." Nico explained, adding more to his half-truth. "And the prison there isn't really...er...normal, I guess?"
"So, like Azkaban?" Scorpius asked him with a thoughtful look.
"Azkaban?"
"Our wizarding prison here. In the middle of nowhere on an unpenetrated fort where Dementors guard the prisoners." He peeked at Nico. "You know what Dementors are?"
He just frowned. "Big scary gliding things with black, tattered cloaks, no faces, sucks out your happiness and soul?" He asked.
Scorpius nodded.
Nico turned back to his meal with less of an appetite. "Yeah, I do."
It was true. He'd met them too. It comes with usually being in the Underworld and hanging out with Thanatos. Naturally, they're his minions, not his father but Nico and Thanatos were civil with each other - he even invites him over in some cases and there were always a couple of those dudes hanging around the gates of his castle. It was as if they were his own personal body guards,
