- Will-

His death gift?!?!!!?!?? What?!?!

One, OH MY GODS I THINK THIS MEANS HE LIKES ME!

Two, he thinks he's dead.

Wow.

I starred at Nico for a few seconds before realizing what I was doing and getting back to work. Now that he was solid I could fix him up.

I worked furiously, letting out all if my pain, my fear, my hope, pouring it all out into my work on Nico. I had put myself into a trance.

" Will, Will!" I heard.

I looked up, hoping Nico was awake. He wan't. It was Sam.

" I thought I told you to go to bed." I told her.

" Will" she said looking at me. " That was hours ago."

She looked at Nick and whistled. " Wow. It's a miracle that you kept him alive."

She looked sidelong at me. " You really like him don't you." She said. More telling than asking.

I swallowed. " Yeah. I-I think I do."

Sam smiles at me. " That's all well and good but you need to sleep."  She said.

" No" I tried to protest before she cut me off.

" Rest!" She said firmly. " Or you'll be no good to Nico or anyone else!"

Slowly my eyelids dropped. " Just for a while." I answered. " Wake me up in three hours. Okay?"

" Yes, Yes," Sam said.

" And clean and bandage the last of Nico's cuts." I said.

" Will do boss." Sam said.

I nodded. " wake me up if he wakes up before the three hours." Sam nodded.

I left. Headed for the Cabin yawning.

Percy caught up with me on my way.
"They won't let us see Nico and they won't tell us what happened." Percy said. " Is he- will he be okay?"

A surge of jealousy came over me.

I pushed it down. It wasn't like I had even asked Nico out yet. Besides, Percy and Annabeth we're together, and everyone talked about what a great couple they were. How much they loved each other.

" He'll be fine." I said. " But you still can't see him he's still not completely stable."

"That doesn't sound like fine." Percy interjected.

I silenced Percy with a glare. " I'm the doctor. He'll be fine."

Percy didn't look happy but he walked off.

I made it inside the Cabin. Nobody else was in there which made me feel a million times worse about my nap.

Not three hours. I decided, setting my alarm. Just one, then I'd get back to Nico and the others.

I lasted my head down on my pillow. Stretching my body out, my eyes closed and I could feel myself slip away into oblivion.
