The seven plus Nico were sitting at table 21, Chiron had made a special table for the heroes of Olympus. Hazel, Annabeth and Piper were talking about girl stuff while Frank, Leo and Percy were talking about Hades knows what. As for Nico he was staring at the very handsome son of Apollo, Will Solace as he was talking to Jason. "Nico!" the sound of his half-sister's voice woke him from his daydream. "What?" Nico responded. "I asked you what you were staring at" Hazel was curious. Piper had noticed that Nico looked like he was staring at something, or rather someONE. Piper wanted to know who the child of Hades liked so she called Jason over. Nico responded to Hazel with "I wasn't staring."
Jason went over with Piper and she asked him who is was that he was talking to. "Oh, you mean Will, yeah he's a son of Apollo. He works at the infirmary. Why?" "I think Nico likes him, I saw him staring in your direction so unless he likes you...." Piper said. Jason just started smiling and went back to the table. Frank sat across from Hazel, who was sitting next to Nico, who was sitting next to Piper, who was sitting next to Annabeth. Percy was sitting across from his girlfriend and the same goes for Jason who was sitting next to the devilishly handsome Will Solace. Nico liked Will, a lot. The son of Hades wanted nothing other than Will, he wanted to soak up his essence. Piper noticed that Nico's face had a little tinge of pink creep up his cheeks when Will sat down across from him. "I think your lying. I think you do like someone." Hazel stated to her brother. "I'll tell you later Hazel, but only because you are my sister" Nico whispered to Hazel. 'Nico isn't a very good whisperer' Piper thought. "Your going to tell me too because you love me and you know I will figure it out if I have to charmspeak it out of you" Piper told Nico. Nico immediately cursed himself for being a bad whisperer then nodded. The rest of the meal was silent for the son of Apollo and the Ghost King.
After the meal when everyone was going back to their cabins Piper pulled Hazel and Nico aside and told him to spill the beans. "Okay but you have to guess" Nico said. "Fine, tell us one thing about him." Hazel said. "He is-" Nico was cut off by Piper saying "Will Solace". Nico's face turned a bright shade of red. "How-How did you guess?" Nico was dumbfounded that she knew. "Well at dinner you were staring at Will and Jason talking and I figured that you would be smart enough as to not go after an Aphrodite daughter's man." Piper's rationalization made sense to Nico so he went with it. "So you were staring! I knew it! You little liar!" Hazel said. "Sorry" the son of Hades squeaked out. The three went to their cabins. Hazel, Frank,Reyna and Jason had a separate cabin because they are Roman. When Nico was about to open the door to his cabin a voice nearly scared him to death "Hey". It was Will. "I heard what you just said to Piper and Hazel." Nico wanted to shadow travel to china because of embarrassment.
"And you're still talking to me?" Will was steadily walking closer to Nico, he was on the porch now. "Yes, I'm still talking to you. I wanted to tell you something Nico." Will was glowing and Nico gelt his nerves calming. "And what might that be?" Will gestured to the door. Nico let him into the Hades cabin, it was black everywhere. "Now what di-" Nico was once again cut off but it was not by words but by Will's lips smashing onto Nico's. Will pulled back only to be pulled into a kiss by the son of Hades. "'Will you be my boyfriend' is the question I am going to ask you." Will said. "Uh-duh." Nico said then pulled Will into another kiss before saying "Goodnight Sunshine" Will left cabin 13 in a daze as he wandered over to cabin 7.
The next day when Hazel came to cabin 13 to wake Nico what she found surprised her. She proceeded to go get the rest of the 7 to come with her to see Nico.
