I walked into the living room, biting my lip trying not to cry.

Will smiled, looking up.

"Hey Neeks," he said.

I grabbed his hand and pulled him up. I didn't say anything, just started to pull him towards my room.

"Nico are you okay?" Will asked, quickly following me.

I shook my head slightly pulling him into my room and closing my door.

"Hey, hey, sh," Will wrapped his arms around me, burying my head in his chest. I wrapped my arms around his neck and sobbed into his shirt.

I was scared. So very scared. I wasn't quite sure why but everything seemed to be caving in.

I pulled away, whipping my eyes.

"I'm sorry," I whispered, trying to breathe properly.

"Hey, it's okay, don't apologize," he whispered back, taking my hand, "do you want to talk?"

"I-" I paused for a moment then sat down on the bed. Will followed, sitting down next to me.

"Take your time," he whispered, squeezing my hand.

"I'm scared. And tired," I started, closing my eyes, "I was talking to Jason and I was thinking about how guilty that made me feel for lying to him. And then I started to think about how I don't even know what the Hades i would say cause honestly, i have no idea what we're doing."

"Nico, what do you want us to be?" Will asked softly.

"I don't know, I just- i want us to be like we were before Will," I whispered, my voice shaking.

"I want that to," he whispered back, taking my other hand.

"So what does that mean for us?" I asked, laying my head on his shoulder.

"Well, i plan to take my flight back to Texas but I'm coming back after that, i promise," he said, wrapping his arms around me.

"And after that?" 

"Well, do you want to tell people about us?" he asked, playing with my hair.

"Yes, no, i don't know," I sighed, closing my eyes.

"How about we figure that out once I come back?" he whispered in my ear.

"Okay," I said after a little bit, nodding my head.

"Alright, then its settled," Will smiled, "What about Jason?"

"Well, I'm not going to tell him to his face but if he finds out, he finds out," I smiled back, opening my eyes slightly.

"Alright then," he whispered, "now, you should probably sleep Neeks."

I groaned, pulling away from him.

"Nico you have to sleep," He laughed.

"No," I groaned again, slapping away his hand.

"Nico come on," 

"No, nope," I stood up, crossing my arms.

Will arched his eyebrows, standing up next to me. He picked me up slowly, throwing me over his shoulder.

"WILL!" I exclaimed, flailing my legs.

"You need sleep Death Boy," he whispered.

"I am the Ghost King, I don't need sleep," 

"Yes you do," He smiled, dropping me down on the bed.

"I hate you," I said, crossing my arms as I fought off a smile.

"Mhm, sure," Will whispered, laying down next to me. 

"Well if i'm sleeping, your going to be my head rest," I muttered, laying my head on his chest.

"Okay then," he laughed, playing with my hair, "Goodnight baby."

"Goodnight Sunshine Boy,"
