A new camper had arrived at Camp Half-Blood. A son of Ares. About a year older than me, maybe two. He was pretty good looking, I had to admit: brown, soft hair and pale green eyes. Taller than me, of fucking course.

Chiron had asked Will and I to show him the Camp. We both had nothing to do so we agreed and soon started touring the newbie, Mason. It was OK at first, but things started to get annoying after a while.

You see, Mason had been being overly touchy with Will and it was starting to get into my nerves. He would "casually" brush his hand against Will's or hug him by the shoulders. He winked at him every now and then. It was making an uncomfortable feeling rise up my stomach.

One time, he even dared to run his hands through Will's hair with the excuse that it "looked really soft."

Bullshit.

It was SO OBVIOUS that he had found Will attractive and was now hitting on him but, I mean, who wouldn't? He was just freaking perfect! But it was MY Will the one we were talking about.

Ok ok, let me clarify. We were not a thing... Yet. Either way I saw him first!

The problem was not just Mason flirting with him, no. It was the fact that Will didn't seem to mind.

I couldn't help but feel utterly stupid for actually thinking Will Solace was going to like me back. I was just some weird, emo kid with temperamental issues. He deserved the best, and I was far from that.

So, with a sigh, I left the pair without saying a word and started walking towards my cabin.

'You are nothing compared to Mason. You are small, ugly and depressed. Will is a literal sun. You would never make a good couple.'

Thoughts like these invaded my head really soon, my insecurities hitting me like Apollo's chariot. I was never enough. I would never be.

I finally reached Cabin 13. Oh Gods how I wanted nothing more than to hide under the blankets for a few days and forget about this morning.

And so I did. I hid under my covers, squeezing my eyes shut. Tears started falling after a few seconds.

Why did Aphrodite have to be so cruel to me? I was actually friends with this amazing person, he understood me and I really enjoyed being with him. Then, out of nowhere, BOOM I'm catching feelings for him.

'But you actually thought he would like you back?' A voice in my head said.

'You don't get it, don't you? No one likes you. NO ONE.'

Stop.

'Remember what happened with Percy?'

Stop.

'Once Will realizes that you have feelings for him, he is going to abandon you, just like Bianca did.'

I said STOP!!!

"Nico?" What? Will? "Nico, are you ok?" The covers were lifted gently from my face and I was met by his stunning blue eyes.

"Oh gods Nico, are you ok? Why are you crying?" He whispered, eyes filled with worry. I blushed, embarrassed. Will, my crush Will, was here, at my cabin and I was crying my eyes out in front of him.

Well shit.

The blond then did something that made me blush even more. He hugged me.

Yes, we had hugged a couple of times before, but this one hug though, felt different. He was holding me like he was never going to do it again and it just felt so... Intimate and...

Right.

I felt right in his arms.

We stayed like that for a while. I had stopped crying by then and Will was now tracing small circles in my back with his fingers. The touch was oh so gentle that I had to make an effort to keep my eyes open.

"Will you tell me now why were you crying?" He spoke softly a few seconds later. I frowned. I couldn't tell him I was crying over him! I shook my head. He sighed and pulled away.

"Neeks, I worry about you, ok?" He said holding me by the shoulders and looking at me right in the eyes.

"I know." I murmured looking down to my lap.

"Neeks." He said, trying to make me look at him. I kept my eyes down beacause of the immense embarrasment I was feeling.

"Nico." He tried again, this time, lifting my chin up softly with his fingers. I had no other choice than to look at him.

My breath hitched.

He had gotten closer to me at some point and now our noses were inches away from touching.

"Let me take care of you."  That was the last thing I heard before feeling his lips on mine.

Everything had faded away. It was just Will and me, together. The kiss was slow and deep and I could practically hear Will's voice in my head telling me:

'I love you.'

'I love you.'

'I LOVE YOU.'

"I love you too." I said, pulling apart slightly so our lips would brush every time one of us talked.

"What?" He said with wide eyes.

"I love you too, Will." He froze and, for a moment, I considered the idea of Shadow Traveling to the Underworld and never come back.

But when I saw the look in his eyes and the smile in his face, I knew I wasn't wrong. He kissed me again, and again and again until I started giggling.

"You have no idea for how long I had wanted to do that." The blond said once we pulled apart. I laughed.

"I... I actually thought you liked Mason better." I said trying not to blush harder.

"Mason?" He asked confused. I nodded.

"What does Mason have to do with us?"

'Us?'

"Us?" I was now confused. What did he mean by that?

"Well, yeah, hehe. I would like to be your boyfriend. B-but only if you want, of course!"

'What?!'

"O-of course I want you to be my boyfriend, Solace!" Damn it, I stuttered!

He let out a sigh of relief and pulled me into a hug. I smiled and buried my face into the crook of his neck.

"Gods, Nico, I love you so much."

"I love you too, Will."
