WILLS POV

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I watched as Nico disappeared into a cluster of shadows, as I yelled at him about how he shouldn't shadow travel so often. But I swear I saw a tiny smile on his face, and I couldn't help but grin myself. The son of Hades looked cute when he smiled.

I said goodnight to Chiron, and wandered off in the direction of the Apollo cabin. I greeted my siblings, pulled off my Camp Half-Blood t-shirt and jumped straight into mu bunk, facing the wall and think about this upcoming quest.

*Timeskip till about 1am*

I was suddenly woken up by one of my brothers, who didn't even speak, just pointed outside, where the shadows seemed to be swirling around something, and I knew Nico was having one of his infamous nightmares.

I rolled out of bed and ran out of the door, not too pleased about having to go into the (currently) darkest part of camp, especially when my dad was the sun god. I saw the other kids huddled at the windows of their respective cabins, and Annabeth and Percy standing on the porch of cabin 3. Annabeth looked like she was restraining her boyfriend from running into the shadows, yelling something in his ear. I couldn't hear what she was saying, but it calmed Percy down, as shadows whipped past me, ruffling my blonde hair and making a high-pitched whistling noise.

An unearthly scream tore me out of my trance, and I sprinted into the cloud of shadows. Instantly, I felt the temperature drop, and I could see my breath cloud in front of me. I shivered, but pressed on, determined to reach cabin 13.

I burst through the front door and searched for Nico. It was incredibly dark, but I still managed to spot a small figure huddled in the darkest corner of the room.

"Nico?" I asked nervously, taking a cautious step forward, slowly extending my hand towards him. The trembling boy looked up, and I saw a shattered look in his eyes, filled with fear and madness, as if he was seeing something no one else could.

"Nico? It's me. Will," I repeated, taking another step towards him. He screwed his eyes shut and screamed again.

"BIANCA! No, no, no. Percy? Percy! NO! Wait, Will? What are you doing here? Will? LEAVE! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Nico screamed, tearing at his hair with his hands. I took another step forwards and Nico screamed, thrusting his hands out, fingers splayed, sending the shadows exploding away from him, throwing me like a rag doll backwards onto the ground and shattering the windows in his cabin.

I sat up, rubbing the back of my head where it had hit the ground, and saw several skeletal hands breaking and pushing through the ground around Nico. I let my emotions take over, and ran towards him, tackling him in a hug and forcing myself to glow, trying to dispel the shadows that clung to him.

I felt Nico's hands drop, and his body go limp. It got slightly warmer and lighter, but I ignored it and instead tried to focus on healing the broken boy in my arms. I rocked him back and forth slowly, and he soon opened his eyes and looked up at me.

"Will? Did I have another...?" Nico asked quietly. I nodded, and to my surprise, he put his head back on my chest. I thought about talking to him about his nightmares when I realized he had fallen asleep again. I smiled, and kissed the top of his head before I could stop myself, blushing furiously even though nobody could see us.

I carefully picked the son of Hades up and gently placed him back on his bed. I turned around to tiptoe out the door, when I heard Nico murmur my name.

"Will...stay with me?" he mumbled. I blushed again, and laid down on the bed beside him. He turned around and curled against me, breathing quietly. I gently brushed the hair out of his eyes, and noticed how calm he looked when he slept. No Tartarus, no lose of Bianca, just a normal 15 year old. Well kinda normal, for us anyway. I turned to face him, and considering it was like, 1 in the morning, struggled to sleep.
