Hades Daughter

I woke up to the sound of knocking on my door. "Go away." I said. The sound went away, but was then replaced by a voice. "Leona, please let me in." Nico said. "Why? I asked annoyed. "Because I'm your brother." He replied. "That doesn't mean anything. You guys didn't come get me. You all left me in the water for so long, without giving me a second thought!" I snapped. He didn't say anything, instead he appeared from the shadows. "Seriously, stop using shadow travel to get into my room." I said. Sitting up, I gave him my attention. "I thougth about you, Ophelia." He said. When he said my real name, I felt something in the pit of my stomach. "I constantly kept asking about you, but everyone was too focused on Calypso." He said. I don't know if I can believe what he's saying. Does he actually care about me? "Ophelia, please. I have been here for you since I met you. To find out that I have another sister, was the highlight of my life again. It made me think that I could protect you and care for you, like a big brother is suppose to do." He said. Tear came to my eyes. Thethings he's saying are the exact things that I have wanted to hear. I jumped into his arms and cried into his chest. He held me, making me feel proteted and safe.
