"That's it, your coming with me !" Will grabbed Nico by the back of his shirt, dragging him along. "Will, what the..." "I'm taking you to Kayla, she's going to fix your tooth." "What, no. I'm fine." "No, your not. You haven't eaten in two days because it hurts too much, yeah I noticed. So you're getting your tooth fixed, doctor's orders." It didn't take long for them to get to the infirmary, to be fair it was pretty close to where they ate and Nico wasn't strong enough to get out of his hold. He found Kayla sitting down in one of the chairs, thank the gods she liked to eat her lunch in the infirmary."Hey, Will. Uh...why does Nico look like he wants to murder you ?" Will ignored his boyfriend's glare "Because he's too stubborn to ask for help. One of his teeth is cracked and it's hurting him, can you help ? Please ?" Kayla nodded, putting down the clipboard "Sure, anything for my future brother in law." Both of them blushed harshly, but it didn't either of them that Kayla made this type of joke. It wasn't unusual for demigods to marry young, especially not after the wars that basically back to back. Will released Nico from his grip, he might have made a run for it but Kayla got to him first. She dragged him to the back of the infirmary and into a separate room "Shouldn't take too long to fix. Be back in a bit." She closed the door.

***30 MINUTES LATER***

Will watched Kayla slowly lead Nico out of the room and sat him down on one of the beds, he immediately flopped down on it face first. Will raised an eyebrow and looked at Kayla for an explanation. "I had to give him some mortal painkillers. They're pretty strong, you should probably watch him until they were off." Will got up from his seat and gently lifted Nico off the bed "Thank you, Kayla. See you later." "Bye." she went back to her lunch. They had only made it a couple of steps before Nico had suddenly regained his voice "Your pretty." his words were slightly slurred as he spoke. The sudden complement stunned Will but made Kayla laugh. "Your high" he finally responded as he hurried Nico out of the room before he could say anything else. He took him to his cabin, he would be like this for a couple of hours so he better keep him away from other people for the time being. Will moved him to sit down on one of the beds in the cabin, then went to set up the T.V. Nico spread out like a starfish and looked at the ceiling, Will wondered what was going through his mind. He put on Nico's favorite T.V show, Doctor Who, and sat next to him in the bed. "How did you know I liked this show ?" Nico asked, seemingly genuinely shocked "Because we watch it all the time." Will said, wrapping his arm around him. They sat in silence for a couple of minutes until Nico turned to face him again "Do you have a boyfriend ?" Will choked. What the hell did Kayla give him !? "Yes." That seemed to be the wrong answer, Nico pouted and turned away from him. He realized his mistake and attempted to fix it "You're my boyfriend, remember." Nico faced him again, this time smiling "Really ?" Will really wished he had a camera "Yeah, really." "How long ?" "For a couple of years now." "Are we going to get married ?" Will froze. He could not believe they were having this conversation now, Nico wasn't even his right state of mind. "I don't know, we haven't talked about it yet." "Why not ?" "I don't know." "Do you want to ?" "Yes, I do." Will almost face palmed himself, Really, I do, I say that when were talking about marriage. "Me too. We should get married." "How about we talk about this later. Preferably when the drugs wear off and you are actually aware of what we are talking about." "Okay." they went back watching the T.V. But Will could no longer pay attention to it, he was more into wondering what he was going to say to Nico after this.

***A COUPLE HOURS LATER***

Nico rubs his forehead, the drugs were finally wearing off. Will tossed him a water bottle "Feel better ?" Nico's tooth no longer hurt, but he still had a killer headache. "Yeah, just a headache. Ugg, what even happened ?" Will chuckled "You were pretty out of it." "Gods, what did I do ?" "You didn't really do much, it's what you said that you should be asking me." "Do I even want to know ?" "First, you told me I was pretty. Then, asked me if I had a boyfriend and pouted when I said yes. I had to explain to you that you were my boyfriend..." Nico shoved his face in a pillow "Oh gods, that bad." Will rubbed the back of his neck, a thing he did when he was embarrassed "What else ?" Nico could tell that Will hadn't finished. "Well...uh...you asked if we were going to get married." Nico's jaw dropped in disbelief "I what ?" "You asked..." "What did you say ?" Will paused before answering, he could see the fear behind Nico's eyes. But he couldn't tell if he was worried if Will said no...or yes." he took a deep breath before answering, he looked down as he answered, "I said that I do want to marry you." Now, Will looked scared, he waited for Nico's reaction. "You do ?" "Yes." Will looked to meet Nico's eyes "Do you ?" "Of course I do, I just didn't think that you would..." "What ? Want to ? Nico, I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you." Wow, that happened. Will couldn't believe that he just confessed that to Nico, this wasn't exactly how he pictured having this conversation at all. "I love you too." Will leaned in and kissed him, he kissed back. Nico was the first one to pull away "So, doe this mean..." "Nico di Angelo, will you marry me ?" "Yes." Later that day, Will had Piper help him pick out a ring (after she calmed down from Will telling her that he asked Nico to marry him.). It was a simple band of stigion iron, Will's was made of imperial gold. When Kayla found out, she marched up to him and Piper "Called it !" she yelled, then left.
