As the two gently let go of each other, Will could see that Nico was smiling. Smiling more brightly than he'd ever seen him smile. He remembered Percy's words, "You make him happy." as the door of the Hades Cabin swung open.

'Alright, Solangelo is cannon!!' Jason yelled, throwing a fist in the air. Nico and Will both turned to look at him as the rest of the group walked inside.

'What is what?' Nico asked.

'Solangelo. Solace+di Angelo.' Annabeth explained, smiling proudly.

'Oh gods, you guys are mad.' Will said, facepalming.

'Well...I suppose we are.' Percy said, shrugging with a smile on his face.

'Guys, we're mad? You two probably went mad keeping your feelings to each other.' Piper said, smirking.

'Talking about that, Kayla, you were in on this whole thing, weren't you?' Nico asked, glaring at Kayla who entered the room last, Austin at her side.

'If you mean I was in on the most romantic confession of love EVER...'

Austin interrupted her, 'And if you mean I was too...' 

Will chuckled, Austin had been the one to snatch the guitar from Ivory who'd protested that Will was a horrible singer and would immediately start blushing and wouldn't get through the song.

'Then yes, Nico. Yes I was,' The ginger continued.

'Well, it wasn't the best EVER-' Will started as Nico shook his head. 

'No, it... was the best, Solace.'

Will blushed as the group congratulated the couple and then came the threats. But not before, Mr. D came barging through the door.

'Nico di Angelo, William Solace and the rest of your little gang... All of you better be out of here in the next two minutes and back to your chores.'

'Hold up, Mr. D! How come you call them by their actual names while I'm stuck here being Peter Johnson?' Percy asked their camp director.

'Oh Perry, mind your own business,' The god of wine said with a dismissive wave of his hand. He looked at the rest of the group, 'Two minutes, understood?'

The demigods nodded as Mr. D left, but not without a final glare at the hoard of teenagers.

And now came the threats.

'You hurt my brother in any way, Will and I'll reserve a special place in the Fields of Punishment just for you.'

'Do not dare hurt my brother, or I will sic my dogs on you, Solace.'

'I said it before and I'll say it again, straight to Tartarus.'

'Don't break his heart, Will. I'm telling you again.'

'I am not aware when my boyfriend threatened you, so sorry about that Will. But I agree with Percy, do not break his heart.'

'Yeah, Annabeth's right. You don't want her after you. Also, I may have to remind you that I can turn into an elephant and step on you.'

'Just saying... It'll be the whole Aphrodite Cabin after you, not just me.'

'Nico, don't break our brother's heart because I will hex you with the worst rhyming curse ever. Understood?'

'Austin's right, so if a few arrows just seem to come your way...' Kayla trailed off, shrugging as Nico rolled his eyes.

'I think I can take care of a few arrows, Knowles,' Nico said, twirling his skull ring as Kayla smirked.

'Sure you can, di Angelo. Sure yah can...'

Percy turned to the son of Apollo, 'Will, I do mean it though. Don't break his heart because frankly, I don't want to hurt you. You saved Annabeth's life and I owe you one.' The green-eyed boy nodded as a sign of respect and Will smiled. 

'I don't know what's going to happen in the future, Percy but right now, I have no intention of hurting Nico.'

Jason sighed as Will and Percy wrapped up their conversation. 'Come on guys, let's leave before Mr. D turns us all into dolphins.'

'Or we become bottles of Diet Coke,' Piper added, snickering as the group of demigods burst into laughter, nodding and ran off, saying their goodbyes to Will and Nico.

Will turned to Nico, 'Well, I'm still going to supervise you for a month.'

'Looking forward to it, Solace. Looking forward to it.'

Will chuckled, 'Just because we're dating or whatever now doesn't mean you're off the hook. I'm still gonna ask Chiron when you can start your counselling sessions and who I can appoint to help you out, ok?'

'Right... counselling. That'll be fun,' Nico said, sighing.

'Nico, you need it. You know you need it. I know you need it. What else is there to it?'

The Italian shook his head, 'Nothing, it's just going to be a long road till I'm back to... being happy, I guess.'

Will smiled, 'It is a long road, but I promise that I'm going to be right there next to you, ok?'

'Ok.'

'Good, because we're going to do this together.'

'Do what together?'

'All of it, going on dates, talking, having fun, being in love...' Will cupped Nico's cheeks. 'Together?'

'Together,' Nico said, sealing the promise with a kiss.
