They were right. The second half of the afternoon was way more fun than I could have imagined. There was music and people were throwing this weird colorful powder in the air. A few people already started drinking and offered us one, we happily accepted, and I guess the alcohol made it that much better.

I was having way too much fun. I honestly couldn't remember the last time I had this much fun. Before Will, the most fun thing I'd ever do would be going out back at Bailey's with Annabeth and Jason and just drinking and eating the leftover food. Will really brightened up my life, so much. 

Also, it was cold. Why was it so cold? Just earlier today it was like 80 degrees and now it's like 50. 

The sun was setting more and more, and me being the shorty I was, I could barely see it over the taller people. Will seemed to notice this and came up with the only logical explanation. "Get on my shoulders,"

"I'm not getting on your shoulders, Solace," I inform him whilst laughing.

"It'll be easy, you're like 90 pounds," he explained. I rolled my eyes in response but before I knew it, Will had managed to pick me up. 

"I'm not 90 pounds, for one, that's extremely underweight for a 22-year-old, secondly, don't drop me." I laughed. I was still cold, if not colder, but the sun setting was so pretty, not to mention how the colors reflected off of Will's hair. I started to not think about it and just braid the strands of hair.

"Whatcha doing Death Boy?" He laughed. I continued to braid his hair.

"What does it look like I'm doing and don't call me Death Boy, it's weird,"

"You're weird," Was apparently the best thing he could come up with.

"You're weirder," I replied and we just began laughing. What was in that drink? Couldn't have just been beer, I can drink a beer and not get like this, and I'm sure Mr. Sunshine can too. Thalia and Reyna have had like three of the drinks and they could barely stand.

"You're shivering," Will told me, I didn't realize that I was.

"No, I'm not, you are," I'm not sure where these great comebacks are coming from. *Sarcasm*

"Take this," He handed me the rainbow flag and I wrapped it around me. The flag was so big it wrapped fully around me, and then managed to go down to Will's shoulders, so it only left my legs out. I made sure to keep the front out of Will's face, which wasn't that hard to do.

"We're almost back, which means the parties about to start, but no ones ever allowed in until 8 o' fucking clock,"

"8 o' fucking clock?" I replied in a British accent, not sure why, but I did. I was just the right amount of drunk to remember and be aware of what I did, but it was always afterward, I have no filter at the moment.

"YEAH! 8 O' FUCKING CLOCK!" He confirmed in an Australian accent. I'm not exactly sure what was wrong with us at the moment.

"YEAH?!" I asked, still British.

"Yeah," He confirmed. He went back to regular Will and I realized his accent was even stronger. Never in a million years would I have thought I would find a country accent attractive. I mean I didn't, what? 

We had stopped walking and was now waiting at the building where everything was going to happen. We had around thirty minutes so the four of us tried to find a quiet spot, which we succeeded in doing so. We all sat down and just laughed. My face had hurt from all the laughing we were doing, I was laughing because Reyna and Thalia were so drunk, I think Will was doing the same, Reyna and Thalia were laughing because when you're that drunk, everything is funny. Will was now holding the flag, but I was sitting between his legs and he wrapped it around the both of us, it couldn't completely go around because it wasn't long enough, but I was warm because of how close Will was.
