Lost love (a thalico story)

Chapter 4

Thalia's POV- So my meeting with Artemis actually went really well. I kinda had assumed she would be mad at me for wanting to quit the hunt and love someone she hated, but it didn't seem like it. So now all I had to do was confess my love for Nico in front of the godess of love herself, Aphrodite. Don't get me wrong I was nervous, but was eager to do it and proceed to live a normal, or as normal as possible, life.

That night I had told Nico to meet me by the water so that I could fill him in on what was going to happen tomorrow. When he got there I had butterflies in my stomach. I haven't had those since I like Luke 5 years ago so the feeling is scary. I don't want anything bad to happen to Nico like what happened to Luke. I don't want another heartbreak.
Yet for some reason I have decided to love again even after what happened. My emotions are to strong and I can't control them. But I'm going to have to try.

When Nico shows up he looks amazing with his dark black hair sweeped perfectly to one side, his dark eyes just staring me down. We are polar opposites but like they say opposites attract. We lay there for a while just taking in the beautiful night sky. I lay my head on his chest and we look up at the stars and at that moment everything was perfect and I wish it could stay that way forever.

I tell him about what I have to do tomorrow and he seems excited. I can te he wants to be with me as much as I want to be with him. I truly do love my bestfriend.

Eventually it was time for us both to get some rest so we head back to our cabins. He leads me to mine and we say good night but before we do he leans down and lightly puts his lips against mine. The feeling made my heart beat so fast I thought it would explode. This feeling that is explained in movies and books about having the perfect kiss is true. And I experienced it with my best friend and true love Nico DiAngelo. He hugs me and part of me doesn't want him to ever have to leave but I know he has to. Once he leaves I sit down on my bed fall asleep and dream about our perfect kiss.

The next morning I wake up and realize that today is the day that I will quit the hunt and be able to freely love Nico. I was excited. I head down to the big house and sit at the Zeus table along with my brother Jason. Normally I would sit with the hunters but alot of them have been shutting me out because they know what I'm about to do today.

Artemis stands up and announces that a ceremony will be held today and I know that it's for me and I am downright nervous. I look over at Nico and he gives me a reassuring look and I proceed to listen to what Artemis is saying. She says the ceremony will be held at 3 o'clock today. Great now I have to wait even longer. I just want to get it over with.
