"Wake up, Death Boy," I hear Will whisper "I can leave now, it's morning. Maybe next time we get stranded overnight in a cabin, it can be the Apollo cabin rather than Hades okay? This place gives me the creeps."

"Right." I say in response

"Let's go." He says and pulls me out of the cabin in yesterday's clothes.

"Will!" I hear someone yell. It's the dark haired boy with the flying horse. Percy. "Will where were you? Your siblings are freaking the fuck out"

"Hey Perc, I got stuck in the Hades cabin overnight."

"Oh, I see." Percy says raising an eyebrow at us.

Will looks at him confused, "what?"

"Your hair is messy, you're both in yesterday's clothes... please, Will. I'm not an idiot." After which he makes an awkward hand gesture.

"Woah," I say "Percy, right? Yeah, no nothing happened in there. He just answered questions. That's all."

Percy raised an eyebrow, "alright man, chill."

After a moment of awkward silence, Will says his goodbyes and walks away.

"Look man," Percy starts "I didn't mean to offend you. I was only teasing Will. It is easier for him to get away with that stuff considering he's into boys and all."

"How so?" I ask him, arms crossed.

"Boys and girls of different parents aren't allowed alone together in the same cabin. Boys and boys are," He replies.

"I see," I reply.

"I've seen the way he looks at you Nico. He likes you."

I nod and turn away.

Do I like him?
