Lost love (a thalico story)

Chapter 2

Chapter 2
Thalia's POV- Being a hunter has its ups and downs. I love all the other hunters so much, but I love hangin out with all my old friends back at camp halfblood more. To be honest I only became a hunter so that I wouldn't have to be the one mentioned in the prophecy. I know I know selfish but true. I had the best friends at camp half blood. Annabeth has been there for me forever and I love her like a sister. Percy and I have our ups and downs but I love him like a sister loves her brother.

And then there's Nico. When I first met him he acted like a complete child, talking about mythomagic, not knowing it was real. He truly has grown since then. Reality sunk in and he realized his actions were childish an he quickly matured. Not to mention he had gotten to be vey handsome. I know I'm a hunter and I'm never supposed to fall in love but I think I have. It took me a while to realize it but I was indeed in love with Nico DiAngelo. I had even thought about leaving the hunt now that the prophecy was over but thought better of it. I decided I would wait a few years and see what I thought then.

When the hunters Jason and Piper got the quest I have to be honest I didn't want to go. I wanted to hang at camp halfblood for a while longer but I knew I didn't have a choice.

I decided to plan a picnic with Nico to tell him about the quest. Once I had told him he said something I had never expected to come out of his mouth. He said he loved me and didn't want me to leave. I was happy yet I was shocked.

"Nico I...." but my words were cut off.

"No Thals you don't have to say anything. I know it can't happen between us but I just had to get it off my chest. Good luck with the quest" And with that Nico walked off.

That night I left my cabin only to go eat. The rest of the time I thought about Nico. If only he knew how much I cared for him. I finally came to the conclusion that if I wanted to be happy I would have to quit the hunt. So I head over to the Artemis cabin, which is usually vacant unless the hunters are visiting and go talk to Lady Artemis.

"Hello Thalia may I help you?"

"Actually yes. I know that I'm not supposed to fall in love if I'm a hunter but I think I have. So that is why I have decided that I think I'm going to quit the hunt."

She just stared at me with a disgusted face.
