Nico had a nightmare. Most likely memories of Bianca dying, or his stint in tartarus. Likely all of the above. He's awake crying in my lap now. I manage to do the heat trick while hugging him. He goes limp as he falls asleep, and I catch him and lay down with him on my chest. He's smaller than I am so it's not crushing me to do so. The heat trick wipes me out, so I'm glad I'm laying down. I'd pass out otherwise. He's muttering words of endearment to me, and his long lost sister Bianca. I get dizzy, and black out.Nico pov
Last nights nightmare was bad. It was Bianca, and tartarus. I look at will. He blacked out from the heat trick. He's now on his side, arms around me, unconsciously hugging me close. He mutters doctor stuff, then it changes to keeping me safe. Even in sleep he's overprotective,and adorable. He wakes up after I fall back asleep. Waking me up by holding me tighter. He mumbles about me being cute in sleep, then I pretend to be sleeping, and roll over. He croons and brushes hair out of my eyes. I mumble something about loving him, and consciously move closer. He embraces me in a hug and whispers that he loves me too. He's obviously awake because he does his favorite thing. The heating up cuz I bring coldness everywhere thing. I sigh with contentness as I actually fall asleep again. The last thing I hear is a soft chuckle from Hazel from the door, and a "shh, he's asleep" from Will. One of them, I'm guessing Hazel kissed my forehead. I guessed her because her lips were cold, wills would've been warm. I mumble my pet name for her. "Hazy"Hazel pov
I walk in Nicos cabin to check on him as I went to bed. Will is there too, Nicos dead asleep in wills arms, and will is softly glowing with heat. I chuckle slightly and will shushes me. Nicos dead asleep but there's a smile on his face. He sighs and moves closer to will. Aww, I walk over and kiss my brother on the forehead. He mumbles "love..Hazy" will gets a kick out of that. "Hazy??" " his pet name for me" "awwww".Nico pov
I hear part of a conversation but I'm too out of it to care. I know it's like nighttime and that was a goodnight kiss. Will kisses my forehead too, sweetly mumbling a goodnight before his breathing is steady, and he's asleep. Hazel is still in the room I can sense her. She mumbles how will just kinda fell asleep in the middle of talking to her, but she realizes that he's exhausted and passed out cuz of using his powers.----morning 6 am------

As soon as my fathers chariot races thru the skies, I'm awake. Nico, still asleep in my arms, is facing me. He mumbles something about Hazel and Me. Something about goodnight kisses and loving us both. Aww neeks being adorable. I'm dizzy because I used my powers. So I try to make it to the infirmary. I get out of bed ok without waking Nico up, but when I reach the infirmary I pass out just inside the doorway.
I hear my siblings rush to me, someone saying get Nico, then hands unceremoniously picking me up, bridal style. I'm laid on a bed, then Nico walks in and says "used his powers, he'll be fine in an hour or two"Taylor(wills half sister) pov
Will stumbles in and then he blacks out. Collapsing to the floor. He mumbles about Nico and heat. Nico walks in after I sent somebody to get him and explains that will used his heat powers to warm Nico up and that he'd be fine in like an hour.
----one hour 23 seconds later----

I wake up with my sister Taylor hovering over me, and Nico by my side. "You had quite the rough one , didn't you" he says sarcastically. "Yeah, yeah. I'm fine Tay. I promise" I grumble.
"Looks fine to me" she says as she walks off. "I told them to relax. They didn't" says Nico. "Thanks for trying"

Wills being attacked my a hellhound. I use my sword to make it gold dust, then like 5 more come and I use my underworld powers to banish them. Easy enough. Then mrs O'realy came trotting up. "Yay! Girl how are you!??!" I yell as will looks surprised and amazed at how I'm talking to, and PETTING a hellhound. "She's Percy's pet, she just likes me too" I say.
Suddenly another hellhound comes and joins the party. It lashes out on will and he's not prepared. Will goes down and I banish the hell hound that's not Percy's pet. I'm getting tired, I have mrs O'really carry me and will back to the infirmary. Neither of us stay awake long. He's worse than I am, I tell Taylor that this hell hound is Percy's pet, and she's a good friend, and that she's tamed. Then I tell her that another he'll hound that's NOT Percy's pet did that to will before passing out in her arms.Will pov
Nico got us back to the infirmary using his and Percy's pet he'll hound I'm assuming, I wake up five hours before he does, but he didn't use that much of his powers, he got hit by some hell hounds that aren't his pet too. His ribcage has a big scratch, he jumped in front of me when an extra large hell hound charged. It got him. It's now healing better than expected. He is a son of Hades tho, maybe that's why. He's mumbling about my safety, and mrs. O'really. When she heard her name, she comes over, and whines he perks up a bit and says "it ok girl" before rolling over to face her. He's not awake but knows she's there. His hand kinda flops in her direction. He hops on his bed and snuggles in. He smiles and mumbles about her being a "good girl" Percy walks in, and mrs. O'really doesn't move. He sees her and doesn't say anything. He knows she and Nico have a special bond. She's now asleep next to a smiling Nico who's out cold, but hugging her.Nico pov
I know I'm out cold, I can hear and smell Percy walk in. Mrs. O'really is in my bed with me. Sleeping I can feel will on my other side, I mumble about his safety. I hear him chuckle. I slowly blink away sleep and turn to will. "Have a good nap there?" He asks sarcasm dripping from every word. " yeah. You?" I answer with seriousness.
Mrs.O'really bounds off to find Percy, and tackle him with kisses.
