I had skipped lunch that day because I was still trying to figure out what I should do.
Man, Boys were so confusing!
They drove me mad and still I loved
them
Or him for that matter.
I had been walking around camp all days trying to avoid both Leo and Nico.
And trust me it wasn't easy.
When ever I turned a corner it seemed they were always there.
I had to eventually hide in the lake just to avoid confrontation.
At about 4:30 I had made up my mid about what I was going to do.
----------------------------
I made my way back to my cabin and tried to make myself look good.
I wanted to look my best in case Nico had it in his heart to take me back.
I applied fresh makeup and straitened my sandy blonde hair.
-------------------------------
After I felt I looked good enough I made my way down to the Hades cabin.
I was feeling confident when I knocked on the door.
"Who is it!" I heard Nico's voice yell.
"It's Elise can we talk?" I asked him.
Nico opened the door and I stepped in.
Nico's hair was a mess but in a way that made him look even hotter than before his black t-shirt hung lousily on him.
God I missed him.
"Hey Elise I have something to tell you" Nico said sitting down on his bunk.
"I have something to tell you too, but you can go first" I said sitting next to him.
"Thanks, I just wanted to tell you I'm going out with Fiona" Nico said suddenly.
My heart was shattered all over the place.
I gave him a fake sigh.
"Few, That makes this a whole less awkward then" I said trying to sound relieved.
"I was going to ask Leo out but I wanted your permission first" I said trying to sound enthusiastic.
When I told Nico the news he seemed unfazed.
"Cool uh yeah I give my permission" Nico said casually.
I felt a stabbing sensation in my chest.
"Great!" I said putting a fake smile on my face.
"Uh yeah." Nico said standing up.
I stood up as well and headed to the door.
"Good bye Elise" Nico said normally.
I felt like I had been stabbed everywhere.
"Good bye Nico" I said trying to sound casual.
I would have if my voice hadn't cracked.
I hurried away from the cabin as soon as I could.
---------------------------
I felt horrible but what I was about to do would have been even worse.
I made my way down to the Hephaestus cabin and knocked on the door.
A little girl opened the door.
"Who are you?" she asked in a sweet tone.
"I'm Elise, I was wondering if Leo was here?" I asked her.
"Tell her I'm not here!" I heard a voice hiss from inside.
"Well that must be him" I said biting back a laugh.
"Um....." She started to say.
"May I come in?" I asked her.
She just nodded and I walked inside.
I looked around for Leo's bunk and saw him make his way for a door.
I quickly moved towards him and jumped into the room before he could say otherwise.
"What do you want" he hissed turning away from me.
"I wanted to apologize for what I said in the woods" I started.
He turned around and faced me.
I could tell he had been crying because his eyes were red and puffy.
"Why would you apologize, you made it clear you aren't interested" Leo spat.
"No Leo I am!" I said quickly.
He looked at me oddly.
"What?" He asked cooly.
"I want to be with you Leo more than anything" I lied.
I felt horrible doing this but I hated seeing Leo in pain. Plus I wanted Nico to see that I can move on as well.
"Your lying" he hissed.
"I'm not and I can prove it" I said.
"Then prove it" he spat.
I wrapped my arms around his neck and started kissing him passionately,
He broke away.
"I can't handle you toying with my emotions again Elise" he said quietly.
"I won't Leo I promise" I said quietly.
He smiled and kissed me again.
"Ser mi novia?" Leo asked me.
"You know I don't know Spanish" I said jokingly.
"Look it up, when you have your answer tell me" he said giving me a kiss.
He walked me out of the room and to the front door.
"Te amo Elise" Leo said.
I gave him a kiss.
"Te amo Leo" I said happily.
Leo shut the door an I walked away.
"Well" I said to myself.
"Lets find out what Ser mi novia means" I said walking off to my cabin.
Although I already had a pretty good guess of what it was.
