The Shadow of the Sun in Gotham

I can't stick too a topic

Hello.

Nico's POV

When Nico Woke, the other side of the bed was empty. He shot up and froze, Immediately thinking the worse. He heard shuffling in the kitchen, and sighed.

He got up and streached his hands over his head. He stepped over the boxes and out of the bedroom door.

"Morning Darlin' How'd you sleep?" Will said, glancing at Nico over his shoulder. He was in the kitchen cooking eggs, a sweet gesture. The only problem is that they're burnt.

Nico walked up beside Him and leaned on the counter. "Morning Amorè" Nico whispered, he didn't know why Will was up so early, Will normally woke up with the sun.

"Why are you awake at like...4 in the morning?"

"It's seven Neeks" Will sighed, going back to his now burning eggs.

"Where is the sun!? It looks so dark out" Nico said peeking out fron the curtains. The Sky was dark, the clouds blocking most of the light.

Will hummed in acknowledgement. Turning off the stove.

"Dad's going to be upset he can't spy on us" Will chuckled as he took the wonderfully burnt eggs and put them on two plates. And sat on the ground. They didn't have a table yet.

Nico sat next to him and took a bite of the blackened egg, ot tasted how you would think it would.

"School starts Thursday you said?" Nico said, trying to keep his mind off of the egg.

"Yeah. And you start Work tonight, going to be digging a grave on the first day?" Will spoke, gulping down the egg.

"Maybe, it might just be doing whatever they tell me though" Nico chuckled, it was weird. Six years ago, if you told Nico he would be living in a city with weird Vigalntes supposedly running on roofs, he would have rolled his eyes and call you crazy.

"It was weird when Mr D laughed when we told him we're moving to Gotham, right?" Will asked, staring at the sunless sky. "Like, we know that there's crazy mortals who dress up in spandex and fight evil clowns, but...In the few times we came, have you seen a single monster?"

Nico thought about it, He hasn't seen a hellhound, or a griffin, nothing. And there normally would be at least a few monsters in a big city like this. Always is.

"No, I haven't seen anything...think somethings wrong with the city? It also might just be that they stay away from us" Nico reflected, Monsters did tend to stay away from older demi-gods.

Will finished his egg (read: charcoal) and put his plate in the sink, Nico followed after he choked down the egg. He made a mental note to never let Will cook anything that wasn't Ribs or sandwiches.

"So...Do we have any plans for today?"  Will asked, then looked at the boxes on the counter, and the floor.

Nico followed his gaze "Nope"

Will groaned, this was the last thing he wanted to do "Do we atleast have the radio?"

"I think it's still in your truck" Nico Called, getting his shoes on.

"Where are you going?" Will accused, dramatically "your not leaving me to do this alone!"

"We need food, our house has eggs, and cheese. Nothing else" Nico answered "there's a store not to far from here, I'll be back soon" Nico closed the door behind him before Will could say anything. He did NOT want to put the boxes away.

He started walking down the hallway, their Apartment was on the fourth floor, So Nico just walked down the stairs.

Did he feel bad that he left Will? Yes,
