Day 1: Still in the hospital

Thalias pov

I sighed. Why? Why couldnt Annabeth stay with me? Why does he have to be here? With tears in my eyes , I turned towards Nico. I could trust him, right? Explain to him that I have no idea what is happening anymore. He had a grim expression on his face as I looked at him. Before he could speak, I started.

"Nico. Look. The last thing I remember is you proposing to me , me being afraid and running off, getting hit by a car, and blacking out. I litterally just woke up on the side of the highway with a bone almost breaking through the skin of my leg. Im so sorry.. Im so freaking sorry.. I was just scared.. I needed to think.. I was go-" is all I managed to get out before Nico gentally placed his lips on mine. He pulled away, stood up, and walked to the window.

"Im sorry. I needed to do that.." He said softly.

"Nico.. Did you guys give up the search? I mean , where did I go?"

"After you were hit by a car, before we could get there, some guy picked you up. We weren't sure if he took you too the hospital or not. We gave his lisence plate to the cops.. but they said the guy it belonged to died a couple months back. No one knew where to look. You're father almost took everything out. Know one, not even the gods, could find you. My father made sure you wern't dead. No o-one k-kn-ew Tha-Thals.." He said, tearing up.

"The ring Nico.. Did you give it to Reyna?" I said, now clearly crying. A lot.

"Thalia.. Im sorry.. I just.. I actually thought you were gone. For good.I couldn't leave it in the box.. I had to move on .." He choked out.  He moved coser to me and tried to take my hand. I gently pulled away and pulled the blanket up to my shoulders. I turned to face to other way as he sighed.

"Look Nico. You moved on. I have to do the same. You are happy with Reyna. Fucking engaged. I gotta do the same. I have to move on. I really think it would be best if we avoided each other. Okay?" I said, now balling my eyes out.

"But Thalia.. I just got you b-back.. I-I can't .. I cant loose you again.. Pl-"

"Nico stop. You are making this so difficult. You think I want this? I fucking loved you Nico. So much. I wanted to say ye-"

"THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU THALIA?! WHY?!" Nico said , now on his feet screaming. I rolled over in bed and looked at him. The second he saw the tears on my face, he sat back down.
"Im so sorry Thal..." He whimpered. I looked at him and stopped crying. To think, this is the man I was with for so long. The man who saved my life so many times. The man who I could be having children with right now if I wasn't so ignorant. I took his hand into mine and sighed.

"Maybe one more night togather.. Wouldn't be so bad.. Right? Reyna doesn't have to know." I said sighing. He looked up at me and smiled. I scooted over in bed and patted the seat next to me.
I knew what I was doing was wrong on so many levels, but I kind of needed it. I mean , the guy that was the one , is getting married in a month. My last chance to say goodbye, is tonight. Reyna will not let me near him when she is with him, and I sure as hell know she will do anything to be by his side 24/7. So I mean , this is healthy right?

Nico climbed up in the bed and with me and wrapped his arms around me. I rested my head on his chest and sighed in contentment. He broke the silence.

"Hows your leg?" He said. I giggle a bit .

"I can't feel it thanks to the pain killers. Im just happy Annabeth found me. Id be dead by now .." I felt Nico tense up but he immediatly relaxed when I looked up at him. He smiled and kiss my nose. I smiled but then sighed, remembering this would only last one night.He noticied and frowned. No words were said after words. I fell asleep.
