*This isn't the happiest chapter. ^^Take that^^*

Hazel's POV

She evened her breathing so she wouldn't wake Nico. Her eyes were burning, but she went through strong.

Bile collected in her throat. Not now!

She ran to the bathroom and threw up. The contents of yesterday's meal spilled out. She felt like crying. 

"Hazel?" Someone asked sleepily, she turned around. Nico was rubbing his eyes, in his pajamas.

"N - Nico?"

"Why, are you crying?" He asked looking up at her with his big eyes.

"I'm just a little sick Neeks. I'll be better in the morning." She said cleaning her face and leading him back to the bed.

Nico smiled at her, and laid down, "Night Hazel, Love Ya."

She bit her lip before replying with, "Love you too Neeks."

Watching his peaceful sleeping form, she wanted to cry. How long could she keep this up? How long before everything snapped?

Flushing the toilet and using mouthwash, she laid down next to her little brother*

She clenched the blanket and stared at the ceiling. It wasn't fair that she had to be like this with Nico.

Her sweet little brother* and she was going to put so much pressure on him if she got worse.

Tears leaked down her face, as she fell asleep.

_______________Time Skip______

Hazel woke up, to a little ball cuddled up against her. "Hey Neeks, wake up. We have to get to school."

"Mhm. I don't wanna," He whined.

"Wake up Nico!"

"Nooo!"

"10"

"9"

"8"

Nico jumped up

"7" 

"6"

"5"

He fumbled around, trying to get the blanket off.

"4"

"3"

"2"

He ran to the bathroom.

"1!"

After a few minutes later, she realized Nico still wasn't out.

She opened the door slightly, to see Nico leaned against the sink, toothbrush in hand, and sleeping.

Stifling her laughter, she shook him awake. "Wha-?"

"OH!" He quickly finished brushing and jumped out.

She took out Nico's uniform and handed it to him. Covering her hand to cough.

"C'mon Nico!!"

"Coming!" She saw him stuffing cards in his pocket.

"Nico~ what's in your pocket?"

"Nothing!"

She put her hands on her hip, "Nico." 

He took out the cards.

"Nico, you know you can't take them to school. The teacher's gonna take them away."

"Fine," he sighed sadly, putting the Mythomagic in Hazel's hands. She, in turn, gave him his uniform.

He took it and quickly changed into them.

Hazel changed into her uniform and took Nico's outstretched arm. But then quickly let go.

"Nico, go outside for a minute, I'm coming" He looked at her puzzled, but listened nonetheless.

When he closed the door. She erupted into a coughing fit, grabbing the counter for support. After a few minutes, she went outside to see Nico talking to a tall guy with a close-cropped haircut. When he turned, she saw his baby face, there was only one person she knew who looked like that.

"Frank!" she waved eagerly. 

"Hey, Hazel!" He replied, he smiled and waved back.

They all started walking towards the school, Nico holding both of their arms.

After dropping Nico off at his class, ("Bye!!!") They both made their way to their own class.

After saying bye to Frank she left to her class. Before she entered, she coughed again into her hand. Feeling something warm, she looked down to see.

Blood.

What do you guys think?

**I know the age thing doesn't make sense. But I'm making Nico younger than Hazel. and Hazel's older.

What age and grade do you think Nico, and Hazel should be??
