Broken Together

ONESHOT FOUR

Reyna quickly braided her thick hair.  "Come on!" A voice cried out. She spun around to face Piper. "I'm coming!" She said angrily. She hurriedly put on her shoes. She clipped a small SPQR pin into her hair. "Who are we getting all fancy for?" Piper questioned. "You going out with Nico?" Reyna's face heated up. "That's none of your concern." Piper nodded knowingly. "You're right." She sighed. A knock rang around the room. Reyna opened the door to reveal Nico, dressed in ripped black jeans and a black Panic! At The Disco shirt. "I knew it!" Piper declared. Reyna, deciding that it was best to ignore her, walked forward.

Piper was ecstatic! They had just left for a date. Okay, friendly get together. Who cares! She had been secretly shipping them for months. Yes, they where "just friends" but after that kiss, who believed that crap? Certainly not Piper. As soon as she saw the chance she causally invited them over to Camp Half-Blood. On the last day, she had finally convinced them to go out together. She said it would be great for the two camps to connect and a ton of political crap to get them to go. She sat by the window, waiting for them to get home. In the meantime, she Iris Called Jason. Suddenly, she heard voices. "I got to go." She said hurriedly. "Love you!" She peeked out the window. Nico  shrugged off his black CHB hoodie and draped t over Reyna's shoulders. She straining to hear the next words. "Keep it." He whispered and disappeared into the shadows. Reyna walked in and fell on the bed, quite obviously tired.

Nico walked in 30 minutes later. He lent over Reyna's sleeping form and kissed her forehead. "Goodnight my Queen." He whispered in her ear. "Goodnight Ghost King." She said back. Nico looked startled. "Come here." She muttered. Nico came closer. "Stay with me?" She asked, half awake. "Sure." He answered, climbing in the bed. And there they laid for the rest of the night, their legs tangled up, Nico gripping Reyna's hand. A small smile on his face.
