Eva wasn't ready to go into the Athena cabin.
So instead, she went around back and collapsed, leaning against the building, and cried quietly into her hands.
After a little while, she felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up to see a boy, who's skin was milk-white and hair raven-black. She recognized him as Nico di Angelo, son of Hades.
"Are you okay?" he asked gently.
She nodded shakily.
"Dunno why I asked, you obviously aren't," he said, mostly to himself. "Let me take a wild guess: you're in love with someone who has no interest in you, or is in love with someone else."
She sniffled a little. "I wouldn't say love. But I've got pretty strong feelings for him."
"I get how you feel," he said softly. "I'll tell you a secret you can't tell anyone. I'm gay, and I used to be in love with Percy Jackson."
Her eyes widened. "R-really?"
He nodded, smiling a little, which was not an expression she'd ever seen before on the face of the son of Hades. "Yep. It'll get better."
She smiled into her knees. "Yeah, yeah."
Somehow, she got the feeling she and Nico would be great friends.
