NICO 

   I awoke to Will snoring quietly beside me, shaking him awake, for I was always crabby in the mornings. He began to stir, turning around sleepily to face me. His smooth sky blue eyes met mine. He smiled at me, and I lightly smiled back. His blond locks brushed across his face, the light making him look more like a sleepy angel. I kissed him lightly, he drew me in closer. As we pulled away from the quick kiss he was grinning ear-to-ear, his freckles making his look like a boy with some candy. "You are crazy" I grumbled, but despite my words, I didn't move. He moved in and kissed my cheek. "That's what I'm here for" I stuck out my tongue, half annoyed, half flustered and hurled my legs over to side of the bed. 

            He yawned, throwing his arms up still laying on the bed. I heard the rustling to sheets and the thumping of his feet as it hit the ground.  I looked out the window of the cabin's room. "It's gloomy outside.." I smiled, no matter how old I got, I knew I loved gloomy days. It was a sigh my father was looking down on me 

Or Up....?

        Will walked over to the dresser with just about as much grace as a drunk elephant. Opening up the draw and picking out his orange Camp Half Blood T-shirt he had gotten a few weeks earlier to fit his larger figure. He slipped it on along with a pair of jean shorts. Looking back at me just before I realized I was staring. "What?" I barked, blushing.

He smirked in return, snickering.

        "Oh shut up!" I snapped looking away quickly even though my body didn't want to look away from the man standing in front of me. 


          I walked up to the dresser and grabbed a black loose FOB T-shirt  from when they had just started in about 2001, Along with some jeans. Quickly throwing them on, to tired to be self conscious about stripping in front of Will, having done it before....For....reasons not only because of the small amount of space in the infirmary.  "I have a class at 9pm today, so I can bring you lunch during the intermission between classes." I announced, it muffled by the shirt being pulled over my dressed body. "Okay Sweetie. My shift ends late, so I won't be back until about 10pm Neeks" I was afraid of that, but I just nodded. "Okay, see you than.." H kissed me before heading out of the doors, i sighed as I headed out to the Arena for my classes. 


          Kids already there, I drew my sword, yelling the words "Okay everyone! Grab a partner and divide up into groups of two!" This made them jump and scramble for a partner. I smirked as some tripped and scrambled back up. I calmly walked back to the front, inspecting the teens and young as they stood waiting for my instructions. "We will be doing the vs. Training!" I stomped my foot and they all got into positions facing one another. "Use the side sweeping and blocking techniques you learned from last lesson! Don't be lazy!" Some groaned as the others begin using it again. I walked around and helped out the ones who were having trouble.

          Time flew by fast, at 12am I ended the first class and brought Will his lunch, made by the Demeter cabin's cook. A sandwich made with greens from whatever garden they share with Apollo's cabin for medicine. Some carrots, and a drink...I think it's milk. Will is lactose intolerant so I believe it's soy milk. Anyways, I brought the meal to his work. Other Apollo children saying Hello as I past. Asking Evans where Will was "He was just finishing up a patience's surgery" I nodded to him and walked down to the infirmary's operation rooms. Sitting in the chair next to the sliding doors.
