  Leo left early the next morning, before Nico could see him and it made him sad. "Hey Nico. What's up?" Annabeth tapped him on the shoulder smiling. "Hey! What are you guys doing here?" Nico said excited to see Annabeth and Percy. "We got a break from college. Its boring there" Percy complained. "It's perfectly fine for COLLEGE Perseus" Annabeth kissed him softly on the cheek. "You did not tell me it would be even more boring than high school" Percy argued/ "It's not that bad! Anyways Nico, you are literally the only one left here. Are you sure you don't want to come back with us?" Annabeth asked concerningly. "Nah, I'm good. I finally actually like it here. Settled into my cabin, besides Leo will be back soon anyways" Nico shrugged. "Okay then, we just came back to get my notes for a new building I'm working on" Annabeth told him. "Oh thats cool. Well I gotta head out to the forest. Mrs. O'Leary is feeling lonely lately" Nico warned before he ran out, glad he had an excuse. Nico ran deep into the forest where the only thing he could hear was his own thoughts. What if Leo is just leaving me? What if he is already sick of me? Is he going to leave me? Leo is not going to leave me. He loves me, why would he leave me? Maybe because your a whiny baby who needs constant attention? Shut up! This isn't me, just that stupid mental disease I can never remember the damn name of. No it's not. This is you. This is how you are. You are a child of Hades. You are supposed to be this way. You HAVE to be this way. It's not self deprecation or depression. You are this. This is who you are. You don't have a choice. No stop. I AM NOT LIKE THIS! I am not... not... I am this type of person. By the time Nico had finished his war with himself he was curled in a ball against a tree. Leo. He needed Leo. He couldn't tell Leo about these, he would leave him for sure. Nico felt his cheeks getting wet in his tears. Nico couldn't handle being alone but he didn't have a choice. Leo wouldn't be back for another few days. Nico took deep breaths and got up. I can handle this. No you can't. Its obvious you cant. Shut up. I can handle this. 

A/N

So Nico. Yeah. Pretty depressing chapter but it is mostly foreshadowing. I will be sure to write more tomorrow!
