Nico's POV
Reyna's back! I ran over to her and hugged her. "Can't breathe!" She gasps. I let her go. "What do you want to do?" I asked. "Let's go to the training arena." She replies. "But, human interaction!" I shudder at the thought. "I don't want to have to do this but you leave me no choice." Oh No! I started running away. She ran after me. Oh no! I thought as my feet touched the ground. I ran down the street and into a corner. Leaning against a wall, I caught my breath. "Gotcha!" Reyna exclaimed as she wrapped me in her arms. I struggled under her grip. "We're going to teach a fighting class." I groaned. "Come on Nico!" "It will be fun!" I shook my head. She sighed. She shoved me against the wall. "You're going to do it." As I lay against the wall, suddenly, teaching a class doesn't seem so bad. "You're scary you know." She grinned. She released me. I feel to the floor. "Ow!"

Reyna's POV
I rest my back against the tree. Nico sat down next to me. "Hey." He said. "Hey." I answered. "Why don't we call the others?" Nico asked. I looked at him in shock. "Okay?" I said, slightly suspicious. He took out his phone and iris-timed them. Iris's smiling face filled the screen. "Who can I connect you to?" "Um Jason." Suddenly, six people's grinning faces filled the screen. Jason had his muscular arms around Piper. Piper, still beautiful, blushed. "Hi Reyna." She said. Leo sat on a couch, his long fingers moving as a blur. "Hey." He said, not even looking up. Calypso nudged him. He looked up, setting his project aside. He grinned. "Hello." His eyes twinkled. Suddenly, I was scared. Percy looked the same. So did Annabeth. Calypso turned her head back towards the screen, her long hair swinging. We chatted for a while.

"We gotta go." Percy said. "Alright." Nico replied. He put down his phone. We both stood up. "Nico! Who was that girl at the coffee shop?" He grumbled something. "Who?" I asked. "Bianca's reincarnation." I nodded. I know how hard Bianca's death was on Nico. I gripped his hand. "I'm always here for you, Nico." He nodded. He turned to look at me. I studied his face, which was suddenly closer. I looked at his dark eyes, and he looked into mine. He brushed a piece of hair out of my face.

Suddenly, I was very nervous. So nervous, that I almost missed it when I pressed my lips against his. It was a soft kiss. Slowly, he kissed me, gently deepening the kiss. Suddenly, I was pressed against the tree as I kissed him back. I backed away, needing air. I took a breath and kissed him again, needing to feel his lips again. I felt hungry for more. Another kiss. He looked scared. "Am I taking this to fast?" He asked me. "No." I answered as I kissed him again. I don't know how long we stayed there, just feeling each other. I pressed my lips to his. I was nervous to go further. He opened his mouth and let me in. I worked my way to the back. I stayed there for awhile, enjoying the feeling of our bodies pressed together. I slowly came back to the front and he gently kissed me back. Suddenly, he added more force, pushing me against the tree. We broke apart for need of air. I was shaking, nervous that we had gone to far. "What does this make us?" I asked him. He shrugged. "I don't know." he said as he kissed me again. I wrapped my arms around his neck as he put his arms around my waist. I lost myself in him. Nico's forehead on mine. One of my hands in Nico's thick hair. Nico broke the kiss. I sat down, gasping for air. "What just happened?" I asked him. "I don't know." He answered. Everything came spinning back into focus now that the adrenaline was gone. I was aware of a high pitched screaming. It sounded like it was coming from Nico's phone!

Nico's POV
What had I done? I just kissed Reyna! Oh gods! I looked over at her, my gaze stopping at her lips. I feel so guilty. But, I enjoyed every second. Agh! What do I do? I cleared my head and focused on a blade of grass. I was aware of a screaming. It sounded like it was coming from my phone. I picked my phone up to see Piper jumping up and down. "Oh my gods! They kissed!" She yelled, running around the room. Percy and Jason just stood there, shocked. Leo was grinning like a maniac. Annabeth was smiling and Calypso looked mad. She looked at me. "Nico!" She scolded. "You just.. Do that... With Reyna." "Agh!" She yelled out of frustration. Reyna came down next to me. "It's okay Calypso." She took deep breaths. "Nice!" Leo said. "Nico's got some moves." Percy finally spoke. "Just, take it slow buddy." I nodded. Piper was still running around in the background. "How was it Reyna?" She asked. Annabeth whacked her. "Ow!" She yelped, rubbing her arm. Jason shook his head, like he couldn't believe what just happened. "Nico, bro, what the hades?" He asked me. I shrugged in reply. "Nico! That was awesome!" Leo said. Calypso came up to the screen. "Reyna, are you alright?" Reyna nodded. "I just never expected Nico to... You know." I grinned. "I guess I surprised all of you." They nodded. "Watch it next time." Annabeth said. "Next time?" I asked. Piper ran up to the screen. "You just made out! You guys have to be in a relationship!" I shook my head. "Not really." I looked over at Reyna. "We were not in a relationship." She explained. "Are we now?" She asked me. "I have no idea." I said. I was certain that I was grinning like an idiot. "We will let you guys figure it out." Percy said. They disconnected. "What now?" I asked Reyna. She shrugged. "No clue." I took her hand and walked back to the grounds, probably grinning like an idiot the whole way there.
