Solangelo short stories

MINE part2

Nico was going to talk to Will after dinner but the campfire was starting early and the Apollo cabin was crazy busy.

Finally Nico got a hold of Will right before he went on stage to perform his campfire song.

"Will, can we talk. About...um, before." Nico said nervously.

Will let out a sad sigh,
"Listen Nico, I know my story does sound fake but I swear it's-" Nico cut him off.
"No Will, I believe you. I just-" but Nico couldn't finish because Will was called to go on stage.

Nico sat down at an edge of the seats when some Aphrodite girls approached him.
'Oh boy' Nico thought.

The girls stood with there arms crossed smirking. The leader of the group was a 16 year old girl with dyed Blonde hair, a cake face of makeup and had thick fake nails that were pealing.

"What do you want." Nico asked bluntly.

"So, I heard you and Will got into a fight today." Said the leader.
'Oh my gods, how many people know.' He thought.

"So?"

"So that means he's single."

"You do know he's gay right?"

"So you agree that you too are know longer an 'item'."

"What? No, I don't know. It's complicated."

"It really isn't Neeks, he's just confused. It's normal for teenage guys to question their sexuality and think that they're something they are not."

It took all of Nico's will power (pun intended) not to slap the schist out of that chick.

"Oh my gods, can you just leave him alone please. He's had enough, and so have I." Nico was not in the mood for this.

"Well that's all we wanted to ask you. I'm sure there's someone else out there for you Nico, well maybe not. Toodles."
The girls giggled as they left.

"Yes there is. And his name is Will." He mumbled under his breath.
Nico groaned and pulled at his hair in frustration.

-----------------

Will sat down on the stool on stage.
"Hey everyone." He said shyly.
The group of girls from the Aphrodite cabin squealed and giggled.
Will blushed red from embarrassment. He started to stutter and had clearly gotten stage fright.

This was the last straw. Nico got up on stage and grabbed the mic off Will.

"Sorry Will, but this is important.
Hey everyone how's it going." Nico said into the mic in a stand up comedian kind of way.

Unlike Will's introduction, Nico didn't get any squealing girls, thank the gods.

"For those who don't know me, my name is Nico Di angelo, son of Hades.
I'd just like to come out clean to all you guys and say that I'm Gay. Save your unnecessary sympathy for someone who gives a crap. But more importantly, I have a boyfriend who is constantly being sexually harassed by a certain group of slutty teenage girls at this camp that will not be named because I don't know or care what their names are." The campers gasped and looked around at each other.

"You see this handsome fella here-" Nico pointed to Will.
"-HE'S MINE. So I'd appreciate it if you recognise that and stop flirting with him.
That means no charm speaking him, no slipping him phone numbers into his pockets when he's not looking and definitely kissing, hugging or touching him in any intimate way. These lips-" Nico squeezed Will cheeks.
"- ARE NICO TERRITORY ONLY. If your not happy with that I am more than happy to write 'Property of Nico Di angelo' across his forehead so you get the message.
And I know what you're all going to say. 'Let Will have a say in this.' And I'm going to let him." Nico turned to face Will.

"Will, do you enjoy being harassed by these girls?"
Will gulped,
"Um, No."
"Do you want them to stop?"
"Yes."
"Are you gay?"
"Yes."
"Do you want me to be your boyfriend?"
"Obviously."
"Good, problem solved.
Oh and also, if I catch any of you flirting with MY boyfriend again, I will personally send you down to my fathers domain and you will get to experience the field of punishment first hand."

"Oh please Nico, you are way too weak to be doing any sort of underworld magic even if you wanted to." The daughter of Aphrodite from before called out.

Nico shadow travelled and reappeared right in front of her with his arms crossed.
"You're right whatever your name is. I am tired from shadow travelling  the Athena Pathenos, an adult satur and the Praetor of Camp Jupiter half way across the world."
Every time he started a new sentence, Nico took a step closer to her until he was all up in her face.

" But I am more than capable of kicking your flat ass off this campus if you lay a finger on my boyfriend.
If you so much as touch him I will shadow travel you to the middle of the Pacific Ocean and leave you there to drown. That goes for any of you. Have I made myself clear?"
The girl gulped and nodded.

Nico grinned evilly. He shadow traveled again and reappeared next to Will on stage.
"Sorry to all the innocent people that I just yelled at, that wasn't directed at you.
Have a nice night."

Nico turned around to hand the mic back to Will, but instead he took Will's face gently in his hands and kissed him in front of everyone.
The display earned them some groans in disgust, but majority of campers clapped and whistled.

When they pulled apart, Nico asked,
"I'm sorry Will, Are we good?"
Will nodded,
"Yep." He agreed, smiling.

"Settle down now campers. Thank you Mr Di angelo but I think I will take it from here." Chiron's voice boomed out from the other side of the camp fire.
"After these announcements we will be getting back to the sing along.
Tomorrow there will be a capture the flag game-" Chiron went on making the announcements for about 10 minutes.

Nico stood next to the chair Will was sitting on.
"Psst." Nico heard Will say,
"What?"
"Thanks."
"It's alright"
"No really. Thanks for understanding. It means a lot to me." Said Will taking Nico's hand.
Nico blushed a little.
"We have to look out for each other, right?"
Will smiled and kissed Nico's hand.
"Right."

*Awwwww*

"Wait a minute."

"What?"

"You can't shadow travel to the middle of the Pacific Ocean. There are no shadows you idiot."

Nico chuckled,
"I know, I just wanted to sound intimidating."

"Well I mean you could shadow travel onto a boat that is sailing there. Or you could use a shadow of a fish, but then you would drown. Ooo or you could..."

"Don't dwell on the details Will."

"Sorry."

Nico laughed again.

"I missed you."

Will smiled at this.

"I missed you too idiot."
