Everything is Changing

The Secret

Nico's Point of View
I looked at the message. It was from Percy. He was making sure I wasn't with Maggie. I told him I was listening to music. He said to come to the dining hall. I was already in my pajamas so I didn't bother changing. I left my headphones and phone on my bed. I started to walk to the dining hall. I prepared myself for a lecture. You need to stay away from her. It's for your own good. We are just looking out for you. Honestly I don't care about what they say. I just want to see her so bad.
I walk into the dining hall and sit down. Percy and Jason sit across the table from me. Annabeth sits on my right. Hazel sits on my left. Jax and Frank must have been on watch right now. And Maggie, of course she wasn't there. She probably doesn't want to see me.
     "Nico. We want to make sure your okay." Percy said. I laughed.
     "Are you serious?" I asked sarcastically. Jason didn't catch on the sarcasm.
    "Yes." Jason replied.
    "One, that was sarcasm. Two, you're asking me if I'm okay. You just told me about five hours ago the love of my life is going to die. And then two hours ago you..." I pointed to Annabeth. "Told me I couldn't see her anymore. That it would be in our "best interest" to stay away from each other. And now you are focusing on ME WHEN SOMEONE ON THIS SHIP IS GOING TO DIE  AND SHE KNOWS ABOUT IT!! SO NO I'M NOT OKAY!!" I was yelling.
    "She said she would stay away!" Percy said. That broke my heart.
    I got up and stormed back to my room. When I was walking on my way to my bed I felt something on my foot. I looked down to see a blue Post-It note. I sat down on my bed and pulled it off my foot. It had writing on it.
Neeks,
     I'm sorry I didn't come after you today. They told me we should stay away from each other. I don't want to. But if you think it's a good idea then okay. But if you still want to have a relationship meet me in my room at 12:10.
                                       Love,
                                             Ghost Queen
   I looked at the clock on my nightstand. It read 12:07. I still wanted to be with Maggie. Even if we had to sneak around. I grabbed a hoodie and locked the door behind me. I could just shadow travel in later. I look at my phone. It was 12:10.
I knocked on Maggie's door lightly. Making sure no one would hear. I heard footsteps shuffle around in her bedroom. She opened the door and saw me. She smiles and pulled me in the door so no one would know. She locked the door and went over to her bed. She sat down.
    "I thought maybe you didn't want o date me anymore." She said. I throw my hoodie on the ground then went and sat down beside her.
    "I didn't think you wanted to either." I looked in her eyes. I could tell she had been crying.

           Maggie's Point of View
    "Have you been crying?" He asked.
    "Yes." I said. I didn't want to hide anything from him.
    "From what?" He asked. Then face palmed. "I'm sorry that was a stupid question after the day you've been having."
    "Well I found out I'm going to die. And that I'm going to end up hurting you. And I really don't want to hurt you. And that I should stay away from you but that I actually didn't have a choice. And I thought you were never going to talk to me after today because of them and because I didn't tell you about the dream. I was going to but I had to talk to Percy and Jason first about the vision and as it turns out, it's all connected." After I finished saying that I realized I had tears running down my face. Nico wiped them away.
    "I don't care about what they say. And I don't care you didn't tell me first. I care that you're okay and safe for now." He said hugging me.
"I need to tell you something." I said.
"Okay." He pulled away and looked at me.
"It's not that I did anything wrong but I think you should know." I looked at him. "When I shadow traveled earlier I ended up in a bedroom on the ship. It was Jax's. I woke up and he was there. We hung out for five minutes while he played a song on his guitars then went to the dining hall." He just looked at me.
"Okay. Are you two friends again?" He asked.
"Yes." I said.
"Maggie, that's great." He was genuinely happy.
    "You're not upset?" I asked.
    "No he's your friend. So he's okay." I smiled. I kissed Nico.
    "I love you!" I said to him.
    "I love you too!" He said.
    Nico picked me up and laid down on the bed. He started to kiss me. I kissed back. He rolled over so I was on my back.
    "Are we doing this again?" He asked.
    "Yes." I answered.
     He smiled and started to pull his shirt off. He smiled down at me.
    "Fair is fair." He said shrugging his shoulders.
     I took my shirt off. He took his pants off. And then mine. He started to kiss my jawline and made his way to my ear.
"I want to be with you. Even if we have to sneak around. If you're okay with it?" He whispered in my ear. He kissed it then nibbled at the lobe.
I flipped him back over onto his back. And started to kiss him. Then his jawline. Then I made my way to his ear.
"I want to be with you too. I don't care if we have to sneak around or shadow travel somewhere else. I will stay with you. But I don't want to break your heart." I whispered in his ear and kissed it.
He flipped me back onto my back and leaned down to my ear. He kissed it.
"I would be more heartbroken if you had died and we hadn't talked to each other because people told us not to." He kissed my ear again. Then went back to my jawline. Then my lips. His tongue ran over my bottom lip asking for permission. I denied him, of course. He pulled back a little then started kissing me again. He continued to kiss my lips for a little bit then he went down to my neck.
     He found my soft spot again with ease. He bit my neck and I gasped at the tingle sensation his teeth and tongue were leaving on my skin. I knew there were going to be marks in the morning. Again. He smirked and come back up to my lips. He ran his tongue on my bottom lip, again asking for permission. This time I didn't deny it. He explored every inch of my mouth with his tongue. I flipped him onto his back, still kissing him. I pulled back and looked at him. He was surprised to be on his back.
     I leaned down as if to kiss his lips but went to his neck. I kissed up and down it until I found his soft spot. I bit at it and ran my tongue over it. He gasped, I smirked.
     After that we both laid down on the bed. My head on his chest. He had his arm around me and was unknowingly drawing with his fingers on my side. I was drawing on his stomach. I wish we could've stay like that forever but tomorrow brought a challenge. We had to act like this never happened.
