(Leos POV)
"Aw shit...." I muttered, "Neeks!" I screamed as I ran out the door. I turned and gave Percy an apologetic smile, but then we heard Nico scream, and fear was displayed all over my face. I turned and ran. "C'mon Nico, I already lost Festus and Mom. I don't need to lose you too." I muttered as I ran. I saw Nico lying on the ground, blood seeping out of his wound on his back. I fell beside him, and curse it I WAS crying. Will was going to so punish me for this one. I picked Nico up and ran, tears streaming down my face.
"C'mon Neeks. Hold in there. For me." I decided now was the time to tell him in case he died. So I buried my face in his hair and sobbed soft. "Neeks I love you." I muttered. I saw him smile.
"Me too, Repair Boy, me too..." he whispered softly. My heart flipped as another sob tore through me. I ran into the Infirmary.
"WILL!" I screamed. I continued to sob as I set him on a bed. He was so pale. Will ran in and saw him. He rushed over and grabbed Ambrosia and Nectar. Nico groaned as Will dabbed the nectar on his wound. I could see Nico was crying.
"WHAT THE HADES WERE YOU THINKING LEO VALDEZ?!" Will saw me flinch. "Sorry..." Will muttered. I saw a tear roll down Will's face. I was frozen in fear and hurt. Percy, Jason, and Hazel ran through the door. They all looked at me and froze. Will stood up.
"G-guys were g-gonna need a s-shroud for the son of H-H- "Will was cut off. Hazel screamed a heartbroken scream.
"NO!" She sobbed. Frank ran in followed by Piper and Annabeth. Frank held Hazel. I sat there. Shocked and broken. I just broke out in tears. The tears worse than the ones I cried the night Festus died. I shook. It was my fault.... wait no it was HIS fault. I stood and pulled my dagger out of my belt.

 
(Percy's POV)
"L-leo...?" I asked as he held the dagger to my throat.
"YOU killed him! YOU ARE GOING TO PAY ASSHOLE!" Leo screamed at me tears rolling down his face. I was so absolutely shocked.
"I... I..." I gulped.


(Nico's POV)
"D-dad?" 50 ish feet in front of me stood Hades. I gasped as I realized I wad dead. "Dad... no no no! Dad why?" Hades looked really surprised, sitting there in a robe,  eating his Ambrosia sandwich. He swallowed.
"I-You are not supposed to be here.... you can't be dead yet... here let me send you back." His tone turned cold, "If you come back again like this though, I will have Persephone turn you into a dandelion... again." I gulped.
"No dandelions please..." I said. Hades nodded. I woke up.... and Leo was holding a dagger to Percy's throat. I gasped, and I winced.


(Leo's POV)
Nico gasped. I dropped the dagger. Nobody except Hazel moved. I was still in shock. Hazel was muttering something and crying. She then left, and the rest followed her out, including Will. I pulled out Ambrosia.

(Wills POV)
I followed Hazel out, my hopes about getting Nico fading. Leo was better for him anyway. I stalked over to the Apollo cabin, got in and ran to my secret room, and began to cry. It hurt to see Nico go.

 
(Nicos POV)
"L-leo..." i whispered. He put his finger on my lips.
"Shhh,"he crooned.
"S-sing for me....please..."I said. I curled up against the shocked Leo. It still hurt to move, but my back was healing. I chuckled as I heard his heart.
"H-how did you know I sang?" Leo asked, embarrassed.
"I-I was in the w-woods... I h-heard it.... s-so I stopped..." I said. Leo laughed lightly. I grinned as he wrapped his arms tenderly around me and began to sing Fix You by Coldplay. I began to cry, and Leo kept singing. Leo finished, stood up, and carried me back to the Hades Cabin, getting strange looks from the campers.


(Leo's POV)
I walked into his cabin, holding him. I didn't care what the campers thought. I just wanted to be by Nico. I set him on his bed.
"L-leo there's something I... need to.... to show you..." he muttered, sitting himself upright. He rolled up his aviators jacket sleeves, and my breath hitched. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
"Neeks...." I was speechless. There were tons of cutting scars, from old to recent, and there were at least 7 that I could count that were from this morning at earliest.
"L-leo I...I-" I kissed him, knowing he would probably push me away, but it surprised my when he kissed back, hesitantly. When I pulled back I grinned. He was redder than red. He grabbed a box and pushed it at me.
"Its in there." He simply said, looking away. I understood and plopped the box in my toolbox.
