(Willow's POV)

"Nico, help me stand up."

"What?" Nico said, dumbstruck.

"I said, help me stand up!" I insisted.

Nico looked like he was going to retort but I looked at him and he knew that there was no arguing. He put his hand on my back, "Does that hurt, Will?"

"No, and don't call me Will," I snapped.

Nico looked hurt.

"Sorry," I said, more softly.

I managed to stand up and Nico put his arm around my shoulders and I put mine around his waist and he supported me over to the door to the infirmary.

Chiron looked up as we walked over towards him, "Willow?"
"Yes?" I asked.

"Never mind, continue on," the centaur said.

"Thank you,"

We walked over to the Athena cabin and walked into the door, "What are you doing here?" Alleya asked, she looked awful, her hair was in a mess and her eyes were puffy from crying.

"Visiting you, you look awful!" I said.

"Thanks, I know," Alleya said.

"I saw you run out of the infirmary, I wanted to see if you were ok, also, I felt hurt!" I said.
Alleya laughed and turned away.

I sat down on the bed beside her, Nico was lingering at the door, "What's wrong?" I asked.

"Percy...and Gen..."

"But Gen has a - ohhh" Percy liked Gen and not Alleya, therefore Alleya was sad.

"Yeah,"

"I guess that I'll let you get dressed then, I'll meet you on the archery range," I said.

"Ok,"

I walked out of the cabin, to mine. I found Percy in there my anger got out of control and I slammed him up against the wall, "How could you?"

"What?"

''How could you hurt her like that?''

"Leave him alone, Willow, you'll hurt yourself again," Nico's face was deadly calm. I put Percy down and headed out to the archery range.
