Don't drown (Nico di Angelo x OC) [discontinued]

III. - Pegasus Talk

Hellene's POV

Percy helped me climb on the pegasus which was extremely unnecessary. Nico already left us because he mentioned that he travels differently.

"That's Blackjack." Percy introduced his pegasus. "And that's Caramel." He pointed to the horse I was on.

"Good boy!" I let the horse sniff my hand.

"Hold on tight!" Percy ordered and I listened wrapping my arms around the animal's neck. "You ready?"

I just nodded and once the flying horses heard the command they flew up.

"So, Percy... how did you understood I was a - how did you call it - demigod?" I asked.

He turned his head to me.  "Grover told me."

"Who's Grover?"

"My friend. He's a satyr." Percy answered. "Plus, you've probably already understood that you're different from the people in a way you can't explain."

I put my head on the pegasus' neck and my thoughts started roaming around. He was right. I couldn't fit even thou I had friends. Here wasn't my place.

I deep sighed before I started talking.

"Look, I did knew that I was different but there was nothing I could do. I didn't have friends which I can truly trust. It was all a big mess. And you came..." I stopped waiting for his reaction.

"No need to thank me for coming." He said confident.

"Oh, I'm truly sorry. Thank you for coming and ruining my life even more." I stared at him with an angry glare.

"Oh, well it'll be good for you to know that me and Nico are risking our lives just so we can save you, princess." He glared back.

"I'm sorry again. But I was going to be much haplier if you've sat this one out." I crossed my hands on my chest like a little kid, not a 13 year old.

"I... I... look it's too complicated for you!" He almost screamed and I blinked a couple times not expecting him to be so angry.

"I crossed the line." I said and laid on the pegasus while my head was tilted to the other side.

"I'm sorry." He tried to touch but I waved his hand away.

*timelapse*

"Oh-ow!" I heard behind my back.

I opened my eyes after the nap I decided to took earlier. Before my vision got clear I heard another voice.

"But I thought he didn't have any more kids." Percy said to someone.

I got up and noticed the slight pain in my head. But I immediately forgot about my head when I saw the centaur in front.

"Shh..." He told Percy and turned to me. "Welcome, Hellene." He said nervously.

I looked around to see a big amount of children leaning closer to me. They were staring at something upon my head. It was already fading but I could tell the shape.

It was a golden trident.
