It was just about to get dark in Camp Half-Blood, the sun was setting and a gentle breeze was dancing in the air. Percy had just gotten out of sword fighting practice, even though he didn't need it. Nico knew this because he had been stalking Percy since the battle with Gea had been won. Percy walked over to the bench were Annabeth was waiting for him with a cup of water. Oh how Nico loathed Annabeth. Percy peeled his shirt off of his sweaty body and took the cup of water and splashed himself with it. Nico, who was hiding in the shadows couldn't help but feel a little turned on.

It wasn't that Nico was obsessed with Percy (ok maybe a little bit) but Nico had this gut feeling that he needed to watch over Percy. To protect him. To love him secretly. Nico was not shy when it came to love, but the only thing that stood in the way of Nico confessing his feelings to Percy, was Annabeth. Little did Nico know that their relationship would soon come to an end. Nico went back to his cabin and dreamed about his wild fantasies with Percy.

Nico had woken up in the middle of the night to a sound that sounded like a little puppys whimper. He looked into the bunk across to him and saw Percy bundled up in blankets. Nico could see that Percy had just finished bawling his eyes out. 'What is he doing in my cabin?' wondered Nico. "Hey" said Nico "are you ok, why are you crying?" Nico climbed into the bunk in which layed Percy. Nico took Percy's head and held it against his chest. Percys cries began to get softer. "What are you doing here.?" asked Nico in a silvery voice. Percy managed to talk without crying. "Annabeth and I broke up…" Percy said sniffling. Nico put on a face of sorrow, but inside he was bouncing of the walls with joy. "Oh my god Percy, i'm so sorry. But why did she break up with you?" asked Nico Percy let a sod escape from his mouth and went on. " Well, I broke up with Annabeth actually. So it was the middle of the night and I couldn't go to sleep, so I went to Annabeth's cabin. I saw that someone else was there so I took a look through the window. And I saw Luke there. They were both laying down on her bed…. kissing. I guess Annabeth learned how to summon the dead.
