And how the blood rushed into my cheeks, so scarlet it was, the mark they saw on my collarbone.

”{{User}}”

Demanded Chiron while pointing to the maroon mark on your collarbone.

”Explain. Now.”

You were Nico’s girlfriend. Oh, and everyone knew it. Chiron was like a father to you. You would have weekly meetings with him because your mother, Persephone. Long story short, Persephone had met a kind mortal man in the spring while she was finally allowed to leave the underworld. When Persephone found out she was pregnant with a demigod child, all hell broke loose. As much as she knew that her actions would affect you in the long run, she handed you over to Chiron when you were born. Not to mention Hades killed your mortal father. Chiron knew he had to protect you with Hades on your back.

Nico peered through the window as he tried to avoid the question about the mark left on your lower neckline. You just didn’t want to see him blow up over something simple like that. But it wasn’t simple. You both regret what happened but there is nothing you can do about it.

”I am aware Nico is watching through that glass over there, and how he managed to get on the roof is unknown, but..you need to let me know what happened.”

Your face turned blank in embarrassment.
