Nico POV

As soon as I step out I feel peoples eyes on me. Why do they have to stare? Can't they just , I don't know, not?!

I follow the nurse, who keeps looking back over to me, to a doctor.

(A/N I've never actually been to a physical exam, because I'm home schooled and I just get check ups every now and then, so I'm just going to skip over some stuff.)

The doctor finishes up and I almost jump for joy, thinking "It's finished!" But then the doctor, David, asks me a question that I really don't want to answer.

"If you don't mind me asking, how did you get all those marks?"

I try to find a good excuse. "I, uh, some guys started beating me up in the street one day." I saw that he wasn't satisfied with that answer, so I added, "I already got the scars looked at, and they're healing normally." As normal as a demi-god can get, I add silently.

"Alright," David says, "Then I guess your good to go."

I walk away, luckily no one asks me anything, but then, on the speakers, I hear something unsettling. "The building has been snowed in. we ask all students to remain calm. We have set up beds in the gyms if we can't get you all out before the night."

I know, it's really short, but I have an idea for the next chapter, so hopefully it will be longer.
