Chapter 4: I Must Be Dreaming

Inside the cave was a place you could survive for days in. There was a fully stocked fridge, a bed, a sofa, a huge TV, about1m by about 50cm, a bed, covered in a thick bedspread and pillows decorated with suns, a cupboard and in a dark corner, there was a notice bored decorated with hand drawn pictures of Skulls, suns, and Nico.

'How did you get all of this in here, Will? I could bet you could not get all of this in here without anyone noticing!'Asked Nico, somewhat surprised.*ok that is an understatement he was very surprised, but that is not the point, OK*

'It all appeared in here as I needed it, like the Room of Requirement. 'Will said, doing a double take when Nico looked confused at Room of Requirement 'Oh of course, you grew up in the 1940s, you wouldn't have had time to read the HP books or watch the HP movies. That is one of the first things we are going to do here. Catch you up on modern movies.'

'What the Hades, Will?'Nico said as he crossed to the notice board 'And why Will Solace does this thing have pictures of ME on it evidently daring back to the titan war?'

'Oh....Ah. That. I knew I should have taken them down, but I kinda forgot. The ting is.... I-kinda-had-a-crush-on-you-since-when-I-saw-you-leading-your-dad-stepmom*do you have any idea how weird it is to be British and write 'stepmom'-like super wierd*-and-Demeter-and-that-army-of-un-dead-and-I-just-thought-he-looks-so-good-'Will was cut off by Nico saying:

'There is something I have been meaning to tell you as well- I have a crush on you as well' Nico in turn was cut off by Will pressing him up against the wall and kissing him. Nico was so shocked he did not kiss back, and Will pulled back.

'Who told you to stop, mi amore' asked Nico, pulling will right back in for another kiss, pressed up against the cold stone wall.

When Nico finally pulled back, Will pulled him onto the sofa and said,

'You know Nico; you are the first person I have shown this place since I found it when I was 10 and I was struggling to understand that I was the son of a Greek God, it was just a place I could go to get away. Over the years, I have used it more and more, with more and more things appearing in here, especially since I became head counsellor, and even more since the titan war, and yet you are the first person I have shown in six years.

Nico just shrugged and said'1, Solace you promised lunch and I have not seen a single scrap, and 2, what were you saying about movies, and three, we are not telling anyone, I am just not ready.'

'That's fine Nico. I don't mind. 'Replied Will, getting plates out of the cupboard, and bowls. 'Popcorn and pie sound good, Neeks and why not watch Hercules.'

'That sounds brill, Will',*Rhyming couplets? What has happened to my brain?*Nico ran across and grabbed a blanket from the bed, turned on the TV, and patted the spot next to him. Will walked across with plates of pie and bowls of popcorn, and snuggled up with Nico, finding Hercules.

'Movie afternoon, Neeks what you say? We'll head back around 8:30. We can have dinner here.
