Helpless (Solangelo fic)

Help

"You feeling okay?"
"I'm fine." Nico responded more trying to convince himself over Will, he just hoped that Will would leave quickly. He managed to eat half a sandwich but he knew that it would only be minutes before he couldn't control it anymore and would throw up.
"Shit sorry Nico, Kayla wanted to talk to me, I'll be back after lunch. Something about scheduling I don't even know at this point."
"Okay." Will walked out of the infirmary and Nico silently thanked the Gods before running into the bathroom and throwing up, he washed the bitter taste out of his mouth before quickly cleaning up, it would be fine, Solace didn't need to know. Nico wandered around the room spotting a stack of blank paper, he took a sheet and started to draw with a ballpoint pen. He drew Will, with his so bright it's almost glowing hair, deep eyes that glittered with a kind of brightness only possible for a child of Apollo. The smile he always had, even when the world seemed to be at it's worst, the freckles that covered his face after spending so much time in the sun. Nico knew there was a very high chance Will would walk in soon and see the drawing, he folded it up and placed it in his pocket only a minute before Will walked back in.

"Hey Neeks."
"Do you not have anyone else to annoy?"
"No actually, Kayla and Austin are taking everyone else."
"Great."
"You're stuck with me, probably forever since we have a new system now. Unless it's an emergency everyone takes the same cabins, you can't escape me di Angelo."
"Please kill me now."
"My job is to prevent that."
"Dio mi salvi."
"I do actually need to check some things, can you take off your shirt?"
"No, why!?" Nico blushed,
"I need to check on the stitches."
"Oh, right. Fine." The Apollo boy traced along the cuts with his fingers, checking it hadn't gotten infected and none of the stitches had come out.
"Nico, are you okay? You're ice cold."
"Huh, what? Yeah I'm always cold, not everyone's a heater Sunshine."
"No, like you're colder than normal. You've never been this cold, are you sure you feel fine?"
"Yeah I'm fi-" Nico passes out, Will tries to sing the hymn but it wouldn't work. Of all times for it to not work this might be one of the most inconvenient. He checks the small boys heart rate, it was faster than normal. After about thirty seconds, Nico woke up.
"Don't try to get up quickly; Gods Nico you scared me." Will grabbed a glass of water and a square of ambrosia, handing them both to Nico, except they went right through his right hand. Will was shocked but he tried to keep calm, "Open your mouth." Nico obliged and Will placed the square of ambrosia on his tongue, as he chewed his hand began to turn solid. "Has this ever happened before? Being cold then passing out?" Nico shook his head,
"I didn't feel cold, I just felt normal then yeah."
"How do you feel now?"
"Fine, I just have a headache."
"Drink the water, it'll help." Will sat down next to him, placing a hand over his. "Okay, you're warmer now. Just tell me if you feel sick in any way, alright?" Nico nodded in response,"By the way, we have Jason and Reyna down as your legal guardians, were-"
"Wait what? How and why would Grace and Reyna be my legal guardians exactly?"
"Well we don't count godly parents since they're always hard to contact and they may or may not have threatened me into putting them down as yours."
"And you agreed because?"
"Jason threatened to electrocute me then get Percy to drown me, that didn't sound like much fun. I was going to ask were you aware of that but from that response I'm guessing no?"
"No shit, so what you have to tell them when shit happens to me?"
"Well I need to tell at least one of them and they need to approve on certain things." Nico scowled,
"It's not like they're actually my legal guardians Solace."
"Neeks at this point they are, Jason is probably planning to legally adopt you on his eighteenth birthday."
"Please kill me."
"No can do Death boy."
"What is with you and your obsession with nicknames?"
"You know you love the nicknames, Neeks."
"Perché questo." Nico muttered, Will glanced at the clipboard he was holding.
"Okay so there's so things I need to fill in, I probably should have done that earlier. Anything you've been diagnosed with that I'm not aware of?"
"Don't think so, dyslexia, ADHD, depression, anxiety and PTSD."
"Who do you want as your emergency contacts? Jason and Reyna are already on there."
"Hazel I guess."
"Okay great Hazel and Percy."
"What?"
"Take a guess."
"Oh my Gods they either think I'm their child or hate me, can someone please be fucking normal?" Will smiled and and patted Nico on the head receiving dagger eyes,
"Nope di Angelo. Okay height and weight, take off your shoes." Will was nervous for the results, looking at Nico now he could see all of his rib. "Neeks you're tiny; stand up straight. 5'6" Will patted him on the head.
"Oh shut up Solace, you're a giraffe."
"No, you're just really short."
"Oh fuck you." Nico said stepping on the scale, it read 84 pounds.
"Nico, that's dangerously underweight. Three full meals a day, no exceptions."
"Solace I'm fine, I've survived four and a half years barely eating, I don't need to start now."
"Nico di Angelo, it's an actual miracle you've survived this long. You need to eat, you're alive but just barely. Please...don't die on me, I just want you to be healthy." Will pulled him into a hug, but Nico pushed him away.
"Leave me alone, I've been just fine living like this. If I die so what? No one would care anyways."
"I would care, Reyna would care, Jas-"
"No he wouldn't, I heard him talking about me with Leo and Piper on the Argo II. He voted to leave me to die in that jar. As for you, you barely know me. You'll care for a day and then forget I existed, just leave me alone."
"Nico..." Will went to place his hand on his shoulder but he grabbed it and pushed it away.
"Leave. Me. Alone." Nico with tears in his eyes, "I don't care about any protocol either leave or let me leave."
"Okay Nico." Will said before walking out of the infirmary. Nico fell on the bed, slipped on his T-shirt and cried into his pillow. He wanted to cut, or drink, or smoke but he knew he couldn't do anything stuck in the infirmary. He wanted to shadow travel out but it was the middle of the day, someone would see him. He didn't want to be in the infirmary any longer than he had to, he wanted to get as far away as he could from Will Solace. Him and his blonde hair and blue eyes, that bright smile. Well, I'm doing a good job on pushing him away. Nico thought to himself, the sound of his crying being muffled by the pillow.
