Ok this is my first fanfic ever so please leave helpful comments. This is a Percico fanfic told from Nico's POV. I hope you enjoy it and if you do be sure to say so!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Chapter 1
"I wonder if he will ever love me" I wonder to myself as I watch him practice sword fighting 'He' being Percy of course, who else could captivate the dark spots in my heart and make me feel light.
"Hey Nico, watch this," he calls out to me as his sword slices the head off the dummy causing straw to fly, a large grin spreads across his face as he looks back at me.
"Nice, where'd you learn such an impressive trick?" I roll my eyes as he makes his way to the smooth wooden bench where I had been sitting for the past hour while Percy trained.
"You didn't like it?" he pouts after he flopped down beside me hardly moving the sturdy yet comfortable bench.
"How do you plan to get stronger if you can't handle a little sarcasm?" I ask nudging his solid arm with my seemingly flimsy arm. When I compare the side by side my skin pale compared to his golden tan. Realizing that I'm staring, I quickly return my gaze to Percy. I jerk my arm away upon seeing the uncomfortable confusion in his green eyes. "How could I be so stupid" I mentally scold myself. "We should probably get ready for lunch." I say looking down as I kick the fake wood floor of the expansive gym.
"Yeah, we should" Percy hurriedly gets up and heads to the locker room. Not checking to see if I follow. After a deep breath I get up, and follow him through the door.
Chapter 2
After we were done showering, we made our way up to the dining pavilion. We parted ways as we went to sit at our respective tables, on either side of the pavilion. I so badly wanted to sit with him, to talk and eat together. I was hoping that maybe, just maybe Dionysus or Chiron would let me sit with him since I was the only one at my table since Hazel was at Camp Jupiter.
But no such luck I asked Dinoysus first, not really expecting a yes from him, because, well he hates all of us. Even Chiron said no, which came as a shock being that Chiron is usually the nice one, he said that Hazel might come back and then I would sit with her but, I don't think even he believes that.
Chapter 3
I head to the woods because earlier today Percy set a letter on my bed inviting me to have a mini campfire with him and some other people. I'm not sure who all is coming because, Percy wouldn't tell me.
When I arrive at the spot where the campfire is flickering away, a spark of life almost, I look around but I see no one. "Percy!" I call out but my voice goes unheard in the darkness. "He must be late" I say aloud.
"He's not late!" I hear suddenly and then a freezing wave of water crashes down on my head, soaking me from head to toe.
"AHHHH!" I scream as the freezing water saturates my clothes, "WHAT KIND OF SICK JOKE IS THIS!"
A funny one!" I hear from behind a large tree, I rush over there hot with anger and I see Connor and Travis Stoll rolling on the ground laughing.
"What is your guy's problem?!" I demand.
"Hey don't blame us" Travis is the one who spoke.
"Yeah it was Percy's idea" Conner says and it seems like he is holding back a laugh but I ignore that.
"This was Percy's idea?" my voice laced with hurt.
"Yeah" Connor and Travis both spoke together this time. "Why would Percy do that?" I wonder to myself while Travis and Connor stand there whispering to themselves.
