The Things That Tie

Deathbed

A/N all titles are inspired from songs. I will also put the song in each chapter. Either normal version or nightcored. I write some pretty cheesy stuff btw and I don't mean the food.

WARNING: the beginning chapter is a bit depressing don't like it then leave ... please.

Nico's P.O.V.

Finally the war is over. there is a peace in camp half blood that has become unknown to everyone here. everybody will be celebrating tonight (at least I think so I'm not sure, I can't keep track of time anymore) meanwhile I'm stuck here in the infirmary. why I'm complaining? I am not really sure, I wouldn't have gone anyhow. I'm not much one for parties...or any social interaction for that matter. at first I was only stuck here for three days. the time was prolonged due to the fact I could not walk and refused to speak or eat. they believe I'm so depressed as well as so deprived of food and water that my body is shutting down on me. When I can walk again and eat normally they'll let me out. I think they've realized I'm choosing to be unresponsive. I shall admit I am choosing to do this, though I don't know why I can't walk. Maybe I just don't have the energy to. What's left of the seven walk in but I continue to stare blankly at the infirmary wall.
"Nico?" ~Hazel asked her voice cracking.
This isn't the first time she's visited me yet she always has the same reaction. Her eyes filling with tears and her voice breaking. I didn't like the reaction but what am I to do at this point? My mind and body are weighed down with the weight of the past. I have no motivation not even the tears of my sister could make me budge. It was to late the shadows though unable to make me one have claimed me.
"Di Angelo if you can't eat on your own we're going to have to give you a feeding tube."~Will
I tried to move tried to just look at him but I couldn't make myself do it. I'm to weak to do anything. I need to move if I can't they'll give me one of those damned feeding tubes.
"*sigh* sorry bout this Di Angelo but it's for your best health."~Will
Damn that healer. Will has them leave and laid me down on a cot. I was dragged into a room filled with all sorts of machines. I was hooked up to a tube and fed through it for a week.

*one week later.*

After eating through the tube for a week I could move and even walk. Will along with a few healers are still very worried and are constantly checking on me in my cabin. Nobody felt like celebrating a week ago so it was pushed forward till today. Will also insists on me going to the celebration. He says it will be good for me. I don't know how and I don't think he does either. Will, Jason, and Percy have actually gotten pretty close to me though I don't know if I could quite yet call them my friends. Hm, I guess I should change into some clean clothes. I grab a pair of ripped skinny jeans and a shirt with a blood red skull on it, jeans and shirt both black of course. After I change I wait for will to come get me. I hear him knock and quickly pull on my jacket.

*at the party*

This is so boring everyone is giving little speeches while I sit here like a mentally challenged raccoon. There has been quite a few looks from other campers thrown my way. Honestly I think I need to leave camp. Not forever but I need a break from everyone. I look around to make sure no one is watching. With the shadows as my camouflage I leave the camps borders. I have no clue where I'm going and it's not really important.
"NICO DI ANGELO! The fuck do you think you're doing!?!"~Will
I stop dead in my tracks. Crap.
"Di Angelo get your ass over here I know you hear me!"
I knew I couldn't out run him so I jumped into the nearest shadow praying I wouldn't become one myself. I started to look around for a sign to tell me where I am before I passed out. That didn't work out well as I could feel my head hit the ground and world blurring. I was only half asleep and I could hear footsteps crunching on the freezing snow. I'm picked up into a pair of arms but I'm to tired to react. A door closes and the howling wind ceases. I'm put down and wrapped in something soft what I presume is a blanket. When I woke up who knows how long later I'm greeted with a pair of soft green eyes.
