Nico

Nico couldn't believe he was doing this. Of all people, HE was forced to tell Percy everything. He paced, and paced, back and forth. Finally the door bell rang making Nico jump up in surpise. "Per-" Nico started. But stopped quickly. "Octavian." Nico gulped and the blond smirked folding his arms and walking inside. "Were you expecting your little boyfriend?" He smirked and added three more words that made Nico's blood run cold. "Son of Hades." Octavian continued to stare at the shorter boy. They didn't move until Nico's phone buzz. He blinked and read the text message. Persassy: I'll be there soon! Just stopped for some coffee.
"Persassy? How cute." he sneered as Nico snapped his head up at the blond. "I could kill you if you didn't mean a great deal to Percy." the boy spat and Octavian looked taken a back a bit. "Surprised?" He added as Octavian rolled his eyes and shook his head. "No. I-" "What did you do to Percy last year?" Nico asked without a second thought. Octavian glared at him but Nico was being stubborn. "What did you two do?!" He raised his voice as the blond scowled and spat back, "Why does it matter to you? You don't care about him." Angry and not able to stay in the dark anymore Nico slapped the blond right across the face. "Did you just-" "Yes I did now fucking tell me or so help me I'll make you're trip to Tartarus a lot more difficult!" Octavian scowled and backed off a bit. "You wouldn't be able handle the truth." "Try me." The blond began to speak as the door opened leading in Percy with coffee and a cookie in his mouth. "Oh hey Tavi." Percy waved as he walked to Nico kissing his head. "Hi Percy." Nico smiled as the blond shifted uncomfortably. "Call me later Nico, I'll explain later." Octavian said excusing himself. "Awh you have to leave so soon?" The green eyed boy pouted as Octavian gave a sad smile. "Yeah." which the he left. Nico looked back at Percy. He was chewing on the cookie like it was top priority. Nico didn't want to take that away from him. "What's on your mind Nico? You seem like you're thinking too much." "Oh please you don't think at all Perce." "Rude." Percy pouted making Nico giggle. "Percy..." he began to say seriously as the boy looked at him urging him to go on. "I have to tell you something. It's going to effect everything we have and I don't want to lose you again." Percy rose a brow. "Again? Nico we never dated." the dark boy blushed and looked away. "Percy... you're a-" suddenly the wall came crashing down and everything was silent except for the roar that rang across the room. "Shit!" Nico screamed staring at the monster that just interrupted him. It was a cyclops a very angry one. "W-what in hades name is that?!" Percy screamed backing away slowly. "It's a cyclops!" Nico grabbed Percy's hand as the monster turned towards them. "Neeks! Why are we NOT running towards the door?!" The sea boy screamed terrified as they backed into a wall. "Trust me!" Nico shot back. Percy's eyes were widen than saucers. The monster ran towards them as Nico conjured every shadow they had. The last thing he heard was Percy screaming as they traveled to the one place he knew they'd be safe.
