WILLS P.O.V

After so many moment of silence, the taste of the son of hades still lingering, he got up, rubbing his eyes as to get rid of the remainder of the tears, putting on a 'scream' jacket.

"I'm hungry." He declared, slowly building his walls up again, so the image of a young boy, suffering, trying to piece himself back together, had disappeared from his eyes, and they became dark and emotionless.

"I'll take you to the pavilion." I replied, my thoughts still almost distant. He held out a hand to help me up, quite warily in fact, and I took it, surprised by his strength, for the amount of skin and bones that he was.

Sluggishly, both tired from an emotional roller coaster of a day, we made our way to the pavilion, my arm draped around Nico in a protective manner. I wasn't about to let anything harm him, I wasn't about to leave him alone again, for fear of what was to follow that act. He needed to know someone cared, he needed help, and I wanted to console him, to save him, to help him, to find the pieces of the young, innocent boy who once existed, an independent, yet obliviously struggling sister at his side.

As we walked past the Aphrodite table, we got a lot of 'awww's' and "Cute's' just eww, no. "About time." I heard that bitch Drew drawl. "I swear, it took you long enough." At that she tuned back to her food. That comment, didn't fail to annoy me though, whether she meant it to or not. She made if seem as if we were deemed incapable, failing some sort of test set out before us by Drew, the bitch of the pretty guys cabin.
Nico, obviously uncomfortable, struggled away from me, falling out of my embrace. What was I expecting? Nico was broken, and I was unable to heal him with a few words.

"Well not everyone's the snobby daughter of a love goddess." I retorted quickly, anger flaring in my eyes, before I turned and walked away, before any harm could come to me or Nico.

When we were far enough away for them not to hear, I heard some interesting notices coming from Nico, was he giggling? I couldn't believe it, the son of Hades was giggling. I then began grinning myself. But as quickly as the laugh had began though, it had ended. How lost I must have been for a moment, to at least consider the fact that one kiss and a few Aphrodite insults would magically fix a broken boy.

Soon, we had Jason upon us, grinning like a lunatic, Percy just a step behind him. "Nico, I can't say I could have done better myself, I'm really happy for you. Will's like you know, sun and arrows, good choice." We both went as red as a tomato at that, oh gods, how Embarrassing. And I had a feeling, obtaining bright red faces was Jason's every intent.

"Couldn't have done better?" Piper teased, suddenly appearing, "Is Will better than me now?" Jason looked flustered, but I just grinned.

"What can I say I'm hot." I grinned like a lunatic.

"Your the son of the god of the sun." Piper replied, a smirk playing at the ends of her mouth, grabbing Jason's elbow, and pulling him away, but not before whispering to me, "Nice job with Bitch haven over there."

"What has he got on me." Percy muttered to himself. "Not Nico's type, what am I then." Did he know we could hear him. Suddenly Annabeth appeared behind him,

"Does it matter seaweed brain?" She teased her grey eyes shimmering in the firelight, shaking percy from his short monologue.

"Ooh no, of course not wise girl," he kissed her passionately on the lips, how adorable, could I go now?

I looked beside me, only to notice the absolute discomfort present in Nico. Apprehensively, I whisked us away, taking us both the the sadly empty Hades table, stuff Chiron, I wasn't leaving Nico by himself ever again. Upon our seating, Nico's plate presented him with some fatty, unhealthy looking chicken nuggets, mine, a nice healthy garden salad.

"You should really try something healthier, it'll keep you going longer." I offered, taking a leave morsel of my food into my mouth. He sent me a death stare, that scared me into saying no more.

"I'm going to eat my chicken nuggets" he declared, officially declaring the end of that conversation.
We both sat there in silence following that, just each others presence enough to satisfy.
