Will continued walking with his friends, enjoying the feel of the march. He got a few compliments on his tattoo, and was taking in the details.
He glanced over at a very bright spot and saw a person in a black sweat shirt and black jeans. His inner doctor kicked in. The person was in direct sunlight, in dark clothing on a hot day.
They were asking for heat stroke.When he looked at the other person, his tattoos prickled again. He ignored feeling and walked over to them. They rubbed their arm and he tapped them on the shoulder.
They spun and raised their arm slightly. They had a mop of jet black hair and their skin was pale. They had bags under their eyes and under their black sweat shirt, they had in a shirt that said, 'I am useless and gay.'Will stuck out his hand. "Hi, I'm Will. He/him pronouns. Nice to meet you."
The person nervously shook his hand. "Uh, I'm Nico. He/him pronouns." Will smiled and then got into the reason he had come over.
"So, I came over here because I saw you were wearing all black, and it's really hot out, so I was worried about your chances of heatstroke."
Nico nodded, and said, "I'm fine. I wear black all the time." Will took in this information.
"Oh. Ok. If you wanna hang out, my friends and I are over here." He said, gesturing over to Kayla and Lou Ellen.
Nico's eyes widened. He grabbed his arm. When Nico touched Wills tattoo, it glowed. Will's eyes widened as he saw a light glow from under Nicos sleeve.
Nico hurriedly rolled up his sleeve to reveal a tattoo exactly like Wills. They stared at each other before Will weakly said, "Hey there, Bianca." Nico whipped around for a second before turning around again, a sad look in his dark brown eyes. Will touched his shoulder. "You ok?"
Nico nodded. "Yeah. That was just, that was my sisters name. Some times I forget that she's gone for good." Wills mouth opened in a silent 'o'.
"I'm sorry. That's what I've been calling you since you got the tattoo."
Nico softly smiled and waved it off. "It's fine. I've been calling you Solace since that day you scribbled it on your hand."
Will laughed. "I remember that! I was getting signed in somewhere and the person couldn't figure out how to spell my last name, so I wrote it on my hand." Nico smiled. Will grabbed his hand and dragged him over to his friends.
"Guys, this is Nico, formerly known as Bianca."
Kayla's jaw dropped and Lou Ellen grinned at Will mischievously before holding out her hand.
"Lou Ellen. She/her." Nico nervously shook it, introducing himself. He went through the same process with Kayla after she had gotten herself together.
He found himself easily befriending them, which was strange for him. For a person who had to socialize a lot, he wasn't very good at it.Will was happy that his soulmate was enjoying himself. Nico was really nice, and after they got to know each other better during that day, he came to know the story behind each of their tattoos. The skull on his ankle was a symbol of, what Nico had morbidly put it as, his soul.
Will thought it meant that he knew that life doesn't go on forever. Make the most of it. He gave his theory to Nico, who had seemingly liked it. He had at least smiled.
The vine on his arm was for his stepmother. She loved her garden, Nico said, and she was more of a mother to him than his mother had been.The name on his wrist was obvious. It was a memorial to his sister. He felt that her gravestone wasn't her. It felt dead and not personal. The name on his wrist was black, olive green, blue, purple, and red. Nico felt that it was more of a memorial than her name carved on a piece of granite.
