Thalia's POV

I walked into the house and sat down, still shaken up from Luke. Everyone tried to comfort me and tell me he got what was coming to him. 

That's the thing. 
Luke was cursed with multiple personality disorder. He would never, ever hurt me. We loved each other. We were close but we constantly fought. Sometimes they'd make him do.. bad things to either me or something of mine. It just happens. 

Nico's POV

Thalia just sat and stared at the wall. I mean, I know she just killed a man, but that used to be her job. After all he had done to her I would think she would of enjoyed putting a bullet through his head. I sat next to her and reached for her hand.  She didn't move. She just continuously looked at the wall. I picked her up and carried her off to the bedroom. If she needed anything, it was sleep. 

She almost immediately fell asleep as she hit the bed.  I laid next to her and closed my eyes, hoping she would be okay.

~Thalia's dream~

I opened my eyes and looked around.  Am I at a palace? Everything's so nice. I slid off of the bed and got to my feet. I cautiously walked to  the door and peeked out.

Nothing. 

I walked out into and through the hallway. This place is strange. I heard crying. Instinctively I walked towards the crying and was brought to a door. The door was locked, but there was a window. Although there were blinds on the inside, I could hear people talking. I gently placed my head against the glass, careful not to make a noise.

"She's hurting.. You have to wake her up. I am not sure how much more she can take it." 

"She need's to face her decisions. She said no. She needs to be with him Her-''

"Sh.. I feel someone close. Maybe shes close to waking." 

"I doubt it. She was hit hard."

"Thanks to your brother, who sent that car." 

"I know.. he did it for the best okay? She is my girl, I can decide what I want to happen to her. She will recover."

She will recover? Who's his girl? Why is she asleep? 

Everything faded to black. 

The darkness dissipated and I was in a room. A hospital room. Nico was there as well. I looked at the hospital bed and nearly screamed. I saw own, almost lifeless body. I was pale. My hair looked frail, and you can see fading bruises all over my body.  Nico looked almost similar -- but awake. He obviously hadn't slept in a while. The bags under his eyes looked as if he hadn't slept at all. He stared at m- well.. my body and sighed. He  squeezed my hand and took a deep breathe.

"Thalia... please wake up.." His voice cracked. He stared at my body sadly.

"Wake up.. Wake UP.. THALIA WAKE UP!"

~~~~~~~~~~

I shot up to Nico sitting next to me. He was smiling for some reason. 

"Thalia.. You okay baby?" I scowled at him and playfully shoved him.  He picked me up and threw me over his shoulder. He took off running up into the other room and out the front door. He kicked open the passenger door and gently placed me in. He slammed the door shut and ran around to the other side of the car, jumping in and starting the car. 

"NICO WHERE ARE WE GOING?!" I dramatically yelled at him.

"To go meet Percy at some park or something."

He started up the car and took off. I reached over and turned on the radio and turned it up. He looked over at me and smiled. I laid back in my seat and reached for his hand. He took my hand looked over me, smiling.

"What..? Whats so funny?" I said laughing.

"Nothing.. I just love you. Like a lot." He said chuckling.

I leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. We pulled up at a dog park. Confused, I looked over at Nico. He avoided my gaze and got out of the car. I stepped out and followed him in the park. He walked over to a gazebo where Percy was sitting, with a Australian Shepard puppy sitting in his lap. I squealed and ran over to him, taking it out of his lap and bringing it close to my chest.

Nico laughed and followed behind me. 

"Why the puppy man?"

"Guys this is serious.. I want to marry her. She is the one man." 

My head snapped up as he spoke. 

"Well do you want us to help you with it? Like what's the plan because you know she isn't someone simple and not a lot shocks her." I said, laughing. 

"Nothing fancy and public Thalia. She really calmed down a lot when.. Besides the point. Just bringing it in , simply. I need you guys to make her day hell."

"Nope.'' I said.

"Deal." Nico said.

I shot a dirty look at Nico. He just smiled back at me. 

"Listen Thalia. Just.. Trust me?" I sighed and nodded at him.

"Nico. I need you to tamper with her alarm clock. You know how she is always on time for everything. Just.. Set it later. her and I have Breakfast scheduled tomorrow, at 9:30, 30 minutes after she wakes up. It'll be like she stood me up. Next, Thalia , It is gonna be a busy day for you. I need you to remove something from her car or something to where it doesn't start. You know more about cars then Nico and I trust you more with her baby. Nico, The puppy. Not puppy actually. He is a stray, but he does have a liking to Annabeth. I found out she feeds him a lot in the streets and junk. So the dog will do what the dog does best, get stuff dirty. Not only will we have a beautiful dog'' - He paused to pat the dog on the head, ''He will lead us to our next situation.. Thalia, Your father is going to keep you off record and stuff but I need you to rob Annabeth."

"YOU WHAT?!" I whisper yelled. 

"Just run by her and take her purse. I will have Ryan there in an alley with his truck. All you have to do is Take it, Run, Because she WILL chase you. Jump in the back of the truck and he will drive. Make sure you stay low in the truck and please for the love of god do not get hurt or she will literally kill me." 

I slowly nodded as he continued.

"Then to top it off you know how much she hates lakes. So you, Nico, will be taking her to the lake. Down to the docks where You, Thalia will be waiting. I want you two to make her excited or something like big news or something or get in a fight or argument with her and then push her in the water."

"BOY why so you can jump in and save her? Nope. That's to plain for my best friend." I said scoffing.

"She isn't wrong Percy, that is a tad 80's movie, don't you think?"

"You didn't let me finish. Normal skater boys or Jock-That-Turns-Out-to-like-nerdy-girls, or Jocks-that-aren't-actually-jerks can't do what I can. I'll be in the water. Probably in a tux. SO MAKE SURE she dressed up nice. When you push her in the water I can make sure nothing on her, or her in general. It'll be fine. Trust me. Okay? Please? Are you guys in? "

Nico and I exchanged glances. We looked back at Percy and nodded.
