NICO
We had just gotten back from the movie theatre (huehuehuehuehue 😏😏)
When Chiron clopped over to us.
"Nico, Will," he nodded his head in greeting and continued, "meeting at the big house in 5 minutes. I expect you both to be there." Before trotting away.
Will leaned to the side to dodge being hit in the face by Chiron's tail and said,
"What does he want me for?"
We walked to my cabin and I replied, "Don't ask me."
I quicky stripped off my tshirt in exchange for another one, then put my hoodie back on to cover up everything that happened in the movie theatre.
Then Will and I walked hand in hand to the big house.
When we arrived, a handful of people were already sat around the circular table, enjoying some cheese and crackers. It was all of the big seven, besides Hazel and Frank, who were in Camp Jupiter.
Will and I made ourselves comfortable next to Piper on one side and Leo on the other. Everyone faced Chiron and Mr.D expectantly, waiting for them to explain why they had brought us here.
Chiron, who was in his wheelchair form, clapped his hands and cleared his throat.
"You might be wondering why we have gathered here. We have come to discuss a very important topic. We have noticed all of you are growing to be more mature than this camp allows. You are our oldest campers and most of our activities and rules are set for younger kids, about ages 5-13. We have decided it would be a great idea for you to all move in together in a house not far from here."
Everyone's jaws dropped. We all stared at Chiron for a full 30 seconds until Percy yelled, "HELL YEA!"
Chiron scolded Percy about language, but he looked happy about our reactions.
Then Will spoke up.
"Mr. Chiron, do you mean me too?"
The centaur beamed at Will and replied, "Of course. Even though we would be loosing our best healer, you are one of our oldest campers."
Chiron continued, "we only have one problem. Will, you seem very attached to Nico. But unfortunately, Nico is still a minor. We would not be able to let him live alone."
My jaw dropped.
Will immediately cried,
"What?! But I'm a major! He could live with me! That's completely legal!"
Chiron smiled weakly.
"You mean you're a legal adult, Solace? You don't say major."
Will seemed too bothered to care. He gripped my hand tightly and said,
"Mr.Chiron, I know for a fact that it's legal, since we are all maj-legal adults, he could live with us!"
Percy spoke up. "Yea, he shadow traveled himself, Reyna and Coach Hedge around all of Europe in our last quest. He deserves it."
The centaur looked at Will. Something about his expression changed Chiron, as his face softened.
"It would be against camp rules, since you guys are not his legal guardians, but it isn't really against the law. I guess we could let it slide."
Will immediately shot up and went to give Chiron a huge hug. The centaur looked extremely miffed, but he let him hold on for a full 5 seconds.
"Well, it's settled. You guys move tomorrow. You have today to get packed and then we drive to the new House."

I didn't sleep a wink that night. And it wast because I was excited- it was because I had to pack.
Will helped me pack until curfew. He didn't have much to pack since he kept most of his stuff in a suitcase when he had to stay night shifts in the infirmary. So he aided me in putting all my clothes and possessions into 2 black suitcases I kept for my visits to the underworld and camp Jupiter.
But the entire time he wouldn't shut up. He rambled on and on about what room he would get, if it would be big, and the fact that we could finally sleep together. (No, not like that.) that part he seemed the most excited about.
"We can do whatever we want, and no harpies will catch us.." He winked at me, and I groaned.
"Will, zip it," I pointed to him, "and pack." I pointed to the half full suitcase.
He smirked, which made me raise my eyebrows at him. He leaned over the pile of clothes to give me a kiss, and I grudgingly obliged before continuing on folding my jeans.
At curfew, he bid me goodbye after a comment about how "the next night, there would be no curfew," and I finished packing. I grabbed a bag and put in my iPod, my toothbrush and toiletries and pajamas. It was everything I needed to stay one night there without my suitcases, until, as Chiron had informed us, Argus came the next day with the moving van and brought all our stuff.
Chiron and given us little information- but he did say that the Gods had pitched in a bit to provide us with a house with everything we needed, and even a little more. Including 3 floors, and a bedroom/bathroom/walk-in closet for everyone. I guess the gods really like interior decorating.

I awoke bright and early to pounding on my door.
"Death Boy, cmon, we have to go! The car is here to bring us to our new house!"
I slowly opened my eyes and stretched until the words registered in my head. Shit, I was already late!
I quickly pulled on some jeans and a sweatshirt that made sure to cover the marks on my neck. I pulled on some shoes while I brushed my teeth, then grabbed my bag and hopped out the door.
Everyone was standing around a black van, waiting for me. Will looked flushed and like he hadn't combed his hair, but it was extremely cute.
I jogged over to them, out of breath. "Sorry I'm late."
Once we were all piled into the van, Leo yelled, "who's excited to be moving! Whoop whoop!" And Jason and Percy cried back in excitement. I rolled my eyes, but I couldn't help but feel a little excited too.
