After the war (Solangelo)

Chapter 8: Nico and Bianca

"Nico," poke, "Nico," poke. "Nico," poke." Nico," poke "Nico," poke. "Nico," poke "Nico," poke. "Nico," poke. "Nico," poke. "Nico," poke. "Nic-" The person was cut off because I slapped them. "Shut up Percy!!!" I yelled. I didn't open my eyes, since I hadn't seen him since I had confessed to him, I didn't know what he would act like. I finally opened my eyes and looked to the side. I shot backwards, and almost fell off the bed. I sighed. Percy had his chin resting on the side of the bed, and his mouth had been right next to my ear, which explained why he had been so loud. "Hi." He said grinning. I sat up, and yawned, blinking. The door opened, and in came a worried Will. He immediately grinned when he saw I was awake. Percy leaned back in the chair, rubbing his cheek where I had slapped him. Will turned to Percy. "How'd you wake him?" "I have my ways." Percy said mischievously. A flash of jealousy shot across Will's face, but it disappeared as fast as it came. "Now that Nico's awake, can I talk to him privately?" Percy asked, directing the question towards Will, and for some reason that bugged me. Before Will could answer, I butted in. "You can ask me you know." I said to Percy, ignoring the hurt look on Will's face, that I saw out of the corner of my eye. I looked at Will as I answered. "And the answer is yes." Will's face was free of expression as he left the room. I sighed and turned to Percy. "What's up?" "Well," Percy shifted uncomfortably. "I'm confused." "Of course you are." I muttered, to quiet for Percy to hear. "About what you said the other month." I froze. "M-month?" "Yeah," Percy looked at me weirdly. "Did Will not tell you how long you've been passed out for?" I shook my head as I answered. "No, you just woke me up, and asked to talk to me before Will had the chance, remember?" Percy looked sheepish. "Oh, right. So anyway, you were out for about, um, four months I think. . . . Anyway, I was confused about what you told me. What did you mean you're 'over me'? I mean, we never dated. . . ." I laughed. "You don't have to date to be over someone. I meant that I didn't have a crush on you anymore." "Oh." I smiled at Percy, and he ruffled my hair, making me scowl again. There, better. I was getting tired of all this smiling. Percy laughed at my change in expression. "Back to normal huh?" I swatted at him, and he jumped out of the way laughing. "I have a date with Annabeth, I got to go! Bye Nico, be safe!!!!!" I turned red when he winked at me, confirming that he meant it inappropriately. I was proud of myself though, since when he mentioned Annabeth, I felt no jealousy whatsoever. I flopped back on the bed, and Will came back in a couple seconds later. "You heard everything didn't you?" I asked. Will was shocked. "H-how'd you know? He stuttered. I laughed at him. "When Percy said he had to leave, I heard you rush out of the way of the door, and when it opened, I saw your unmistakable hair rounding the corner!!" I was laughing really hard now, tears streaming down my face. I stopped laughing as soon as I heard Will lock the door though. Will came and sat on the bed next to me, his head in his hands. I only realized Will was crying when his shoulders started to shake. I pulled on his shoulder, and made him lie so he was facing me. Tears were streaming down his face. "Hey," I asked gently. "What's wrong?" The answer I got was not at all what I was expecting. "WHAT'S WRONG? OH, I DON'T KNOW!!!!" Will shouted sarcastically. "MAYBE I JUST FOUND OUT MY BOYFRIEND HAD A CRUSH ON SOMEONE ELSE AND DIDN'T TELL ME!!!!!!!" He bellowed, his glow was not bright and sunny, but more red, and dangerous. Will was getting off the bed, but using all my strength, I pulled him back down, and onto his back. I straddled him, keeping his arms above his head, so he couldn't get away. I bent down, and kissed him forcefully. At first he resisted, but slowly he calmed down, embracing the kiss. I lay down so my legs were on top of his. I let go of his arms, and they slowly wrapped around my waist. We pulled away. Stupid need-to-breathe. I looked into Will's eyes. "I don't like Percy like that anymore. And I asked him to keep it between the three of us, and he agreed." "T-three of us?" I cursed. "Remember the first day you told me to come to the infirmary, and you asked me what I told Percy? Well, I told him I used to have a crush on him, and at first he thought I meant Annabeth!!" I chuckled and Will's tears had dried by now, his hand resting on my cheek. I leaned into it, closing my eyes then continued. "Annabeth was there, which is why it's three, also, since when did we decide we were boyfriend and boyfriend? We haven't gone on any dates!" Will brought my face down, and kissed me slow and sweet. When we pulled away, I rested my head on his chest and closed my eyes. "Sunshine?" He asked me, his voice rumbling through his chest. "Yeah?" I said. "Will You be my boyfriend?" In reply, I kissed him again. "Of course Sun-baby." "Sunshine, can I see the picture of you?" "Sure." I said, and I got off of him, crossed to the drawer and unlocked it. After digging through my drawings and sketches, I found the picture. I started to tear up as I looked at it, then I shuffled back to Will. I handed him the picture and he gasped pointing to me. "YOU HAD TAN SKIN!!!!!!!!!!!" I laughed at Will's reaction. Will grabbed my waist, and pulled me onto his lap. His muscular tan arms wrapped securely around my waist. I leaned into him, relaxing as Will held the picture out in front of us. "Who took the picture?" Will asked in my ear. "I-I don't know." I furrowed my eyebrows. "My father dipped us into the river Lethe, so I don't remember." "Oh." Was all Will said. He probably felt awkward because of my answer. "Don't worry Will. I forgave my father, he was trying to do the right thing. Doesn't mean he did, but. . . . At least he tried." Will nodded, his head resting on my shoulder. I looked back at the picture, and took it from Will. I started to get up, but he took the picture back and started walking towards the desk. I rushed next to him, grabbing the picture from him, and shoving him back onto the bed. Will raised his eyebrows at me. I just shook my head and didn't say anything. I put the picture away, and made sure Will wasn't watching and locked the drawer. I put the key back on the chain that I always had around my neck, and went back to where Will was lying down on the bed.
