Just forget the world

"Don't you have a wedding to go too?"

Will pov

"Will?" My father pulled me out of my thoughts. I lean forward and touch his arm reassuringly.

"I am here Pa." I said. It had been two days since the incident with Bryce and Octavian. Nico's father and his men caught him and put him in one of the private prisons that Hades owns.

Pa has been in hospital recovering from his injuries. Yesterday Hades came sweeping in and offered to pay for my father to attend rehab. For the first time ever....... he said yes.

I should of been mad at him but after reading the doctors report on his injuries. I was actually a little in awe at his strength. He went through hell and he refused to give up where I was.

"I can see your here. Why? Don't you have a wedding to go too?" He asked. My stomach twisted. Nico had left for the wedding. We still had not talked. Between police, doctors and fathers we couldn't seem to get a moment alone. I still wasn't sure where we stand.

"Nah Pa. I wanted to stay with you." I said.

"I appreciate that but .......you sure it's not because of Nico?" He asked. I looked up in to his bright blue eyes. I forgotten about how receptive he could be.

I felt tears come. "I don't know what to do! I have screwed up so much lately. He saw Bryce for what he was. I just thought he was being over protective again. I don't know where we stand or how to fix it! I don't wanna lose him! What if he doesn't love me anymore"

"Oh William. Ofcourse he still loves you." My father patted my hand. "If you don't wanna lose him then don't. Take it from the god of all screw ups..... you have to hold on to those you love. Especially through the hard times."

"But what if he doesn't want me anymore?" I asked. "He was so......... distant."

My father shook his head. "The man nearly lost you twice in one week. That is hard for a man who has lost so much already. Maybe he is just as scared and confused as you are."

I thought about that. Maybe he was right. "What do I do?"

"Go to him son. Tell him you love him.  If he does reject you then at least you know you did everything you could."

"What about you?" I asked."I wanted to see you off to rehab." I said.

"I will do that." I jumped and turned. My Ma was standing behind me. "There is lady called Meg outside. She will escort your father when he is well enough to travel to the rehab centre. You can go visit him there Will."

"See I will be fine." Pa said. I nodded. I stood up and embraced my father for the first time in years. "I love you William." He said softly.

"I love you too Pa. I will visit you. I promise." I pulled away and turned to my Ma. "Thank you." I said before kissing her forehead.

"Always my son." She said. I then left. I had a wedding to go too and my man too get back.
