Chapter Twenty-one

I was running down the stairs and pulling on my warm peacoat while I stepped. As I passed, a group of fifth year girls giggled and blushed, I decided to wink and consequently send them into little squeals, which put a grin on my face and set my mind at ease. I walked briskly from the building and found the bridge I could see from my dorm window. It was tall and stone, just like the rest of the school. I leant over the edge and rested my forearms on the ledge, my head dropped and brushed my hair with my fingers. I ran through everything that had just happened in my dorm room.
1. Ge and Glen are twins
2. Their parents reputation depends on them staying leaders of their segments
3. Their mother turned to alcohol when things got bad
4. And when things got bad, she took it out on them
I breathed heavily through my nose and closed my eyes, why can't my life just be freaking normal, you know checking out guys on a beach in Cali with my sister or something. Or maybe even having stayed in Italy, that would have been great. But no my mum had to screw around with a fucking God and now, Bam! My life's a wreak.
That's when I became apparent of something pushing into my sides, and I pulled out the letter that Persephone had given me as I boarded the train. The letter that was supposed to make everything about why my father had sent me to this place clear. I unfolded the envelope and saw my name in cursive, written beautifully in large black letters. I pushed my thumb underneath the seal and pulled out a single piece of paper. The same black cursive covered the page, I breathed out spotting my breath in the air and then began to read

Dear Son,
I don't believe you understand what an exceptional demigod and child you are, I haven't told you this enough but I do love you and I did love your sister. If you don't remember I was willing to risk everything to stay with yourself, your sister and and of course your mother. I am eternally sorry for what I did to you and how I have failed you as a father. Your life began under extreme circumstances and it never seemed to get any easier, that was until you met that Apollo boy. Now I'm sure you think that I'm doing you a terrible wrong by sending you to a school miles and miles from him, but I am trying to make up for the way I damaged your childhood. Nico, you must understand that we are worried about you, we fear that your life will end before you have been given a chance to live it, and that fear comes from the way that you approach your powers. This brings me onto the choice of school, many of demigods with powers like yours have attended Morrowgan and it will help. Morrowgan will help you to appreciate your powers and how to handle them.
I hope you see that I'm not being the bad guy here
Hades
Oh and PS. Please don't 'hook up' with any other people while your there, Solace is a good kid, Persephone and I approve of him.

I crumpled the letter and shoved it back into my pocket.
"Now he tells me!" I whispered, rolling my eyes and chuckling a little. It didn't help me with my choice at all, it seemed that I was all alone now.
"Nico." that's when a male voice sounded behind me. It was familiar and I smiled, welcoming the warmth it brought me, filling me with a sunny feeling.

I said all I needed to say in the last update apart from the fact that we are going to have some Solangelo after Christmas (in the world of Morrowgan High)!!!
Please stick with me because it's going to be a great ending!
I promise! Xx
