i'm sorry in advance. this is super choppy.

"What the-- wait what? How did you--"
Nico's state of confused irritation was temporarily interrupted by Will's laughter, the very one Nico had come
to fall hopelessly in love with. "Can't you take a hint for once in your life? Would it kill you to stop following me around like I'm going to drop dead any second?"

"Not all of us are as unhealthy and malnourished as you are, di Angelo," Will countered, his voice having a surprisingly edgy side to it. "You really aren't eating enough."

"Stop treating me like there's something wrong with me. I know that already. You don't have to remind me of how meaningless my life is every chance you get."

Will groaned, his face in his hands. "I'm sorry Nico. I can't help it. It's just-- every time I see you, the condition your in--"

"So is this all I am to you now? A hopeless nutcase?"

"Oh gods, Nico. That's not what I meant. You know that, right? Right?" His voice sounded desperate, though Nico had no idea why.

"I can't believe I ever thought we could.... you know what? Forget it."

"What? Be what," Will questioned eagerly.

"There's no point in telling you. For that too happen, it's all a meaningless fantasy. I can't control my feelings. I want to so much, but I just can't stop liking you, and--" Horror crossed over Nico's face as he realised what he just said. "Oh Styx," muttered Nico. He stared up at Will's face, which was full of shock.

"Nico--"

Glaring, the son of Hades growled, "If you repeat this conversation to anyone, Solace, I will make it my personal mission to make sure you find yourself a place just for you in the Underworld." After a moment's hesitation he added "And don't you dare try following me. And don't ever strike up a conversation with me again. If you do, then I will make sure that I exhaust myself out to the point that I turn into the shadows."

He started to walk away, ignoring Will's pleas.

"Nico. Nico, just listen for a second..."

Nico turned back, looked at the golden-haired boy, and then he was gone, deep within the shadows.

"Oh gods," Will questioned, as he sank to the ground. "What have I done?"
