"hello" Nico opens the door of his and Hazel's house wearing a my chemical romance shirt and skinny jeans.

it's like he wants me to die! Will screams internally "hi, uh is Hazel home?"

"no"

"no? but..." Will opens his phone and checks his calendar "she told me to come over today, we're going to study for Wednesdays biology test"

Nico frowned "I'll call her and ask what happened, for now come in"

Will enters the room and sits down. Being in Hazel's house without her is awkward. It feels rude to take out his phone and weird to sit around without doing anything.

"So she says she forgot about you two meeting and is at a cheerleading meet. Apparently they're going to dinner afterwards to, she's really sorry "

"oh... ok , I guess I'll go then" Will says as he stands up to leave

"why?"

"cause Hazel's not here?" Will attempted to say, but it sounded more like a question than a answer

"you don't need hazel to study " Nico says with a smile "come on stay, I already started dinner and it's way too much for one person. "

"I guess?"

"Great!" Nico pats Will on the shoulder "I'm going to work out, call me when the timer to put in the noodles beeps"

"mhm" Will mumbles, looking away. The shoulder Nico had patted somehow felt warm and yet super cold at the same time. unfortunately the warmth was spreading to his face too, stupid genetics making him blush so obviously!

Will actually gets a lot of work done, this house was much quieter than his own (he has a looot of half siblings). It's less distracting than the library (why study when you could reread Harry Potter?) and unlike studying with Hazel, no goofing around.

Will finishes studying and decides to search for the bathroom. As he walked around the literal mansion he started to hear faint music. He followed the sound cause he was completely lost and music=civilization.

Will walks into a gym-like room to see Nico lifting weights .

"Will! is the water boiled?" Nico walks over, shirtless, with sweat dripping down his face- if Will didn't know better he'd think Nico was doing this to him on purpose.

Will opens his mouth but nothing comes out. Nico smirks "I'll go check " he heads towards the kitchen and Will follows, still speechless the timer begins to beep the second the two walk in, and Nico adds the noodles.

"I'm going to shower, turn off the flame in three minutes,. kay?"

"okay!" Will says, internally cringing at his own enthusiasm.

Nico returns 10 minutes later and took the noodles out of the water, he began to mix in the sauce he had made before will came.

"want to try some?" Nico hands will a spoon with some sauce on it

"this is amazing!" Will exclaims astounded by the deliciousness of the sauce "you're so talented"

Nico turns around "you're so kind" he retorts with a smile

"you're so hardworking"

you're so friendly"

"you're so creative"

"you're so positive "

"you're so inspiring "

"you're so smart

"you're so cool

"you're so humble "

"being around you makes everything better"

"you light up the room"

"the people you love are lucky to have you in their lives"

"our community is better because you're in it."

"you're a gift to everyone around you "

"you're so beautiful"

"you're so beautiful"

"wanna hear something stupid" Nico says, his face inches from Will's "I hate lifting weights, I prefer running and dancing. But I lifted Hazels weights for 45 minutes straight because I wanted to impress you"

"I would love to see you dance" Wills voice was almost a whisper

"can I kiss you?"

"please"
