~Percy's PO.V.~

We both jerked our heads away and our attention turned to the door..a smirking Jason was looking at us, his arms crossed over his chest. My  face went bright red "J-JASON!" I shout and Nico hid behind me slightly. I felt his head gently push into my back.

"woah, easy boy" he laughed, putting his hands in the air innocently "I only came to see if you two where okay".

"I didnt say you could come in" I snap.

"well no..you where to busy..erm...." he trails off, his smirker growing wider as I went dark red. "it wasnt like that!" Nico says from behind me. If it wasnt that then what was it?.

I dont even know why I told him to kiss me.. I just felt like I needed his lips on mine, wether that was because I missed Annabeth or not I have no idea... he leant in though.. he WAS going to kiss me until Mr. Im Going To Kill Later barged in. But.you dont go to kiss someone if you didnt like them..did you? Well I coudnt be any better, I TOLD him too.

Besides Nico  doesnt like me..not like that..infact I dont even know if he likes me at all. After his sister died I knew he hated me, blamed me for everything but to be honest I blamed myself too. I promised I would watch her then she got killed...

Well after that he became distant, every time we saw eachother I could feel his glare as I quickly walked away. I thought he was only being this nice becaue he felt sorry for me. I knew pretty much the whole camp knows by now and there all probably like 'oh, poor Percy' 'i hope hes okay' after my little tantrum yesterday.

"mmhm well it looked like you where about to kiss" he smirked, placing his hands back into his pockets as he walked over "so if it wasnt that then what was it?" he asks. I felt Nicos tight grip on my shirt and his head hitting my back again.

"dont you have a girlfriend to go screw?" I snarled, it hurt me to say but by the look on Jasons face it hurt him more. "I coud say the same about you and Nico" he snaps back. "JASON!" Nico growled, making us both jump "get. out." he said, no emotion but his tone was cruel and harsh.

~Jason's P.O.V.~

Okay, Percys little comment hurt but I didnt know wether to laugh or storm out. My response slipped out, I didnt mean to say it. I knew about Nicos secret and I hadnt told anyone, I was only messing with them.

I sighed "im sorry.."

There was an akward silence in the air for a minute or two until I heard one of them  let out a breath then Percy said "its fine..sorry about what I said".

Right..wasnt expecting that "I wont tell anyone, promise" I say, smiling a little as I lifted my head to look at them "it wasnt like that though.." Percy mumbled but he didnt seem confident with his answer at all. I saw Nicos head over Percy shoulder and as he ganced back at him I gave him a wink and his face flushed brighter "ill...let you two...." I trailed off since it aapparenlty wasnt a kiss ( which it totally was. Duh, like I was born yesterday) so I didnt have a clue what to call it.

I stepped backwards towards the bedroom door and slipped out, closing it "point two Pernico" I say smugly with a smirk as I walk out of Percys cabin and slammed the door a little so they knew I was gone.

~Nico's P.O.V.~

Oh.My.Gods.

My head was a mess so I couldnt think straight and my heart felt like it was on overtime. Me and Percy where sitting in silence. I had moved from behind him and was now sitting on his chair while he stayed on the bed.

My excuse would have been that he suduced me but that seemed crazier then the whole kiss itself, oh no sorry, ALMOST kiss. He did tell me too so that must means he feels something for me though right? I only said his name to ask him why he hadnt moved away, mabye to change the subject so he would snap out of it. I just didnt expect him to say 'just kiss me you fool'.

Yeah its kind of cheesy and I would have burst out laughing if I didnt want to crash my lips against his...did he actually mean it though or was he just testing if i would do it?...

I glanced over at him and caught him looking at me, he blushed and looked back down "Percy I-"

"No Nico im sorry, I dont know what came over me. You shouldnt have had to put up with that. You shouldnt have even been in that situation anyway" i stood up and slowly walked over "its okay if you want to go, I totally understand  just didnt want you to be mad at me. Honestly I dont even want you to go, youve helped me through so much and stayed by my side, I shouldnt have just threw that at you after all yove done" I stopped in front of him and sat down to his right "I believe that Jason will keep his word so no one has to know about anything-"

"Percy" I say softly "no Nico, just listen plea-" "Percy" I said a little more sternly but I still kept the softness in my voice "what?" he asked but he looked ready for me to hit him or something.

"did you mean it?" I asked quietly but I couldnt keep the hope our of my voice. It was a desprete hope for sure but it was still there. Since I first met him I fell in love with him and I honestly couldnt belive that had just happened...something just kept telling me that it wasnt real though. It was just Percy being confused because he lost Annabeth.

I loved him with all of my broken heart, but I wasnt going to kiss him, let him use me just so it took his mind off of her.

It was quiet for a few minutes and I felt my hope breaking a little "..yes.." he finally said, confidence overflowing in his voice. He placed his hand under my chin and lifted my head up so I was looking at him "I meant everyword"
