Dick's Pov
He stared at Nico in shock for a moment before he saw the blood.
He rushed over to him and did his best to put pressure around the wound.
"What the heck happened?!"
"I..." Nico was still staring at him in shock, "I don't know, I wanted to feel real."
"Next time come talk to one of us. Don't stab yourself!"
"Sorry." Nico mumbled, staring at the knife now.
Then he did something Dick was not expecting. He reached forward and just yanked the knife out of his hand.
"Nico?!" Dick rushed to move his hands to put pressure directly on the wound.
"Can you go into my room and grab the bag of lemon squares under my desk please?"
"This is kind of more important."
"Please," Nico looked up at Dick, "I don't want to get blood on the carpet, but I need them."
Dick looked at him like he was crazy. This boy was literally bleeding out, and he wanted lemon squares. But he complied, walking back into the room. Nico sounded like he knew what he was talking about, which scared Dick. What had this kid been through?
He checked under the desk and found a canteen and a bag of something that looked like lemon squared taped to the bottom. He grabbed the baggie and walked back over to Nico, who was applying pressure with a rag.
"Sorry, this is probably going to get stained." Nico lifted the rag up and grabbed the baggie. He stuffed one of the lemon squares in his mouth then tossed the rag in the sink, turning on the water as to wash the blood out.
A miracle happened right in front of Dicks eyes. Nico's hand slowly stopped bleeding, it looked like the skin was mending on its own. That wasn't possible.
"What the heck?" Was all Dick could say.
Nico chuckled, "Did you want to talk about something?"
"Um," Dick remembered why he had come looking for Nico in the first place, "Your cat came back. And it's time for dinner, but don't think we won't talk about this."
"My cat," Hope flashed in Nico's eyes, "She actually came back?"
Dick nodded, he had found the cat wandering the garden just a few minutes ago. He'd left it with Jason while he came to tell Nico.
"Jason has her right now. He's the only one that could get close to her without her lashing out or running away."
Nico smiled a knowing smile before shooing Dick out of the room to change, then he followed him to the dining room.
What the heck just happened?!
Nico's Pov
Nico had not expected the cat to return, he was honestly a bit shocked.
He grinned when he got to the dining room and saw Jason holding her. As soon as he walked in the cat perked up and jumped out of Jason's arms, running over to Nico.
He crouched down and rubbed behind her ears.
"We really have to get you a name, don't we?" He whispered to her in Greek.
The cat purred and jumped up into Nico's pocket. He chuckled and went to sit down at the table next to Jason.
"What's her name?" Jason asked.
