I was attempting to play volleyball ball with Will but it proved impossible. He was overly excited to play and i felt the exact opposite, but I guess that's why we are dating. Opposites attract.
Everything was perfect. That was when I felt it. Another soul enter the underworld. But not just any soul. I fell down to my knees and began hyperventilating. This can't be real m. Will ran to me. He didn't ask if I was okay or what was wrong he just told me to take deep breaths and focus on his voice. But how could I when Jason was dead?

We went to Camp Jupiter for the funeral/burial. I swallowed my emotion and conducted it properly. I decided to say some extra words for him. Gods had shown up. Hades himself flickered an appearance. Hunters and Amazonian's alike showed up to pay their respects.
"Jason was a friend to many. A brother. A Conrad and a warrior. He-" I took a deep breath, and looked at Will who nodded me on through his tears. "He was the bravest of us. The strongest.the smartest, but most importantly the most kind. His life was too short. Rest easy my friend."

I had yet to cry about it. I had yet to sleep. Will had forced me to eat. He kept his distance but es their at the same time. Don't ask me how, I really have no idea. I was sitting in the temple of Jupiter, by myself. It was early in the morning. That was when it happened. Tears spilled out of my eyes and my sobs echoed through the small temple.
Jason, even though it was by force, was the first person to know about me, and he even was the one who got me to come out. He was more than a cousin to me, he was a brother. He was the one who got Will and I together. He saved my life more than once. He saved everyone more than once. He and Percy always came up with these plans and jokes, and brought me in on them because we are brothers. And one brother died.
The world should have been black and sad. But it wasn't. I lost a brother. A friend. A cousin. I kept asking Jupiter "Why. Why Jason." But it was less of a question. I curled up in a ball and cried, until I heard footsteps. I didn't turn around, I knew who it was.
"What do you need from me right now Nico?" Will asked.
"Just hold me Will."
