nellius or artellius? the ancient love triangle

•lover• 💗

narrator's pov:

Gellius trained for a compulsory 9 months for the pankration and then set off the Olympia where he hoped more than anything to find Nic.

Gellius's event wasn't  for another 2 days from then. That was 2 days, 48 hours, that he had to find the beloved Nicasylus.

He started to worry once he realised how many people were there, just how slim his chances were of finding Nic. He had a gut feeling that he would find him though, he just knew it.

Gellius searched around everywhere and after a long 30 hours of searching he finally had some luck.

Gellius's pov:

I'm so tired. I havent slept in days because of how stressed i've been over finding Nic. I had to find him. I searches around for ages and finally, i saw a glimpse from around the corner, a boy who's hair glistened in the sun. I started to wonder if maybe Artemis wasn't the only one i had my eye on. After all, I hadnt seen Nic for a whole year. And I'd only really known him for a few hours before his capture. Was i... falling in love with Nicasylus? This whole time i didnt know why i was so drawn and felt so connected to someone that i barely knew. His eyes are so blue just like deep down in the ocean. His hair, so luscious. His eyes, oh his eyes, i need a map cos everytime i look deeply into his eyes i seem to get lost in them. Wait, am I inlove with Nic? I had never felt this way about anyone before, (Artemis, Nic's sister is a close second however). I need to chase after Nic, the boy who i hope is Nic that is, and tell him just how much i truly love him.
