Sunbeams And Shadows - A Solangelo Fanfiction {boyxboy}

"Doctor's Orders!" |1|Nico's POV

Nico struggled to break free of Will's grasp as he was dragged toward the infirmary. He didn't even use any Underworldly powers! Him and Percy Jackson were showing a bunch of new campers how to fight properly with swords in the Arena when a wave of nausea hit Nico, he stumbled backward. Luckily, Percy was there to catch him. One of the new campers had already raced to fetch Will in the infirmary to help Nico. Now, here Nico was, being dragged by his crush to one of his least favorite places in Camp Half Blood. Nico grunted in frustration as he twisted his arm trying to squirm free of Will's hand. Wait... Did that mean they were holding hands? "Ugh... " Nico mumbled as a small blush crept to his cheeks. "What's the matter sunshine?" Will asked, smirking. "Let go!" Nico said as he, once again, tried, and failed, to break free of Will's grasp. "Sorry death boy, don't want you running away from me! " Will said cheerfully. Nico grumbled as his blush deepened. He blushed even harder when Will looked over his shoulder to see Nico's blushing face. "Awww is little Neeks blushing?" He asked teasingly. "Don't call me that!" Nico exclaimed as they reached the infirmary and Nico was finally able to wrench free of Will's grip. But, Will just grabbed his other arm and spun him in through the doorway.

Will took him by the shoulders and steered him into, what was now to be know as Nico's personal room, since he was in the infirmary so often. "Sit." Will ordered, and started rummaging around in a supply cupboard. Nico sighed, but sat down on the bed. "Say Ah." Will said, after a few minutes , and held out a thermometer . "Uh, no way am I saying 'ah'." Nico said, inching away slowly. Will raised an eyebrow at him. Nico let out a sigh, but reluctantly scooted back forward and opened his mouth so Will could take his temperature. "Hmm." Will said after he took Nico's temperature. "What does 'hmm' mean?.." Nico asked, shifting into a more comfortable position. "It means your temperature is ten degrees higher than normal." Will said, his eyebrows scrunched together. "Aaaand what does that mean? Nico repeated, drawing out the a. "It means that your stuck in here for three days." Will responded, cooly. "WHAT?!" Nico practically yelled. "That's right death breath, doctor's orders." said Will. "UGH." Nico complained, and flopped down onto the bed. "I'll go grab you something to eat." Will suggested as they heard the conch shell be blown. Nico sighed and pulled the blankets up to his chin. Why did Will, of all people care about him? Nico barely even talked to him, which he kind of regretted, then was mad at himself for feeling that way, ugh. Why did he even like Will? I mean, after Percy you'd think Will wasn't his type, but nooooo Nico just haaaaad to fall for him. Did Will even like boys? Probably not. Nico sighed again, but this time sat up, for he heard footsteps walking down the hall. Will strolled into the room with a platter full of food, and Nico just couldn't help but get lost in his beautiful blue eyes.

Only after Will cleared his throat did Nico realise he was staring. Nico blushed and ducked his head, if Will noticed, he didn't say anything. "Bon appetit!" Will said, placing the platter on the side table. "Perché grazie, signor Solace." Nico replied in Italian. Will gave him an odd look and Nico chuckled. "Thank you." Nico translated. "Your very welcome sunshine." Will replied cheerfully. Nico started eating and within a few minutes the food was gone. "I'll let you sleep." Will said, Nico hadn't realized how late it was until Will told him to sleep, he also hadn't realized how tired he was. A yawn escaped his mouth. Will chuckled. Nico laid back down onto the bed and snuggled under the covers, Will have Nico a smile, a perfect smile that had Nico turning away to hide his blush. Ugh! Why does he have to be so cute! Nico thought as he tried to bury himself under his pillows and sheets.

"What's the matter with him?" asked Austin as he strolled into the infirmary, Nico groaned and buried his face under the covers to hide the blush that had crept onto his face. "Oh, nothing... Nico's just being a tsundere." Will responded, his mouth twitching with a smile. "What's a tsundere?" A voice said from the doorway, two of the new campers walked in. Their names were Marie and Ciara. It was Marie who asked the question. "A tsundere is someone who won't admit their crush on someone." Ciara explained. "I-i don't have a crush on anyone!" Nico said, defensively, but his voice was muffled by the pillows his face was buried in. "Sure." Nico could feel Ciara's eyes roll from across the room, Ciara was a daughter of Apollo but she was very viristale in the ways of love.

Austin and Ciara went outside to meet with Kayla to host the campfire song, while Marie sat next to Will to help him with Nico. "This is our most important patient, okay? Let's see who did this to our little death boy." Nico rolled his eyes and blushed. He didn't think he was important at all. Will said as they placed their hands on him, Marie on his back and Will on his legs. Feeling Will's touch made Nico blush even more. "I'm getting traces of magic. A child of Hecete maybe?" said Marie. "Me too. There is a new camper who doesn't like Nico that much, maybe it was her?" Will said, uncertainty. "It's a start," Marie noted. "Ciara and I will check it out! She seems very nice to us, so maybe we can extract some information from her." Will shock his head. "No, just be friendly. Don't be too hostile," Will said. "and she has a name you know, her name is Chara" Marie gasped. "Like the character from UnderTale?!" "Whatever floats your boat.." Will said, shrugging. They let go of Nico. Nico scrambled out of his sheet and pillow tomb and Will told Marie to shoo.

"Okay, until we figure this out you are staying here, Di Angelo." Will said as Marie shut the door behind her. "And I'll actually let you sleep this time." Will said and Nico breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay..." Nico said, relieved that no more people were going to barge in uninvited. "Wait, are you going to stay here?" Nico asked, nervously. "Yep!" Will responded. Nico groaned. "Really?! I'm going to call Hazel over here." Nico said, picking up a demigod safe phone that Leo had made. Leo was trying to make them for all demigods but gave them to the Seven first, but Reyna and Nico got them too. " You don't need to worry Hazel! She is very busy being a centurion at Camp Jupiter!" Will said, panic in his voice. "She at least should know." Nico said raising an eyebrow at him, why was Will was so nervous? "O-okay sorry." Will said, his face flushed. That night, as Nico fell asleep, he felt... peaceful, something he hadn't felt in a very, very long time...
