2020:

"I'll go get us some drinks" Will told Nico. He walked over to the bar, Nico looking at him from afar. A woman approached the ghost king.

"Can I buy you a drink?" she asked. Nico just shook his head and looked back at his boyfriend, but the woman insisted. "Come on, just one. You look so lonely."

Will had gotten their drinks so he intervened. "Sorry, he's mine. We've been dating for almost nine years now and you're not going to change that."

The woman looked down, embarrassed. She took her phone out and opened it, and Nico noticed that her background photo was baby. She looked adorable, with tiny blonde hair and big brown eyes. "Is that your baby?" he asked.

"Yeah, her name is Eve. She's only a month old but she's perfect already."

Both Will and Nico thought the baby was the cutest. They both said aww and then the woman left.

Far away in the Underground lived a god. He was watching the events of the night unfold and had an idea. Nico had told Hades that he'd been thinking about having a kid and that little girl looked just enough like each of the parents. She had Will's dirty blonde hair and Nico's dark brown eyes.

He found the woman's car on the road and turned the wheels towards a ditch. He watched as the car toppled over and landed upside down in the ditch. It took a few minutes before someone stopped and called an ambulance. When they finally arrived, it was too late. She'd died.

He then travelled to the woman's house and took the child. To his surprise, she seemed to be a half-blood. 'Probably another Hermes child' he thought. He found the hose and sent an Iris message to the god. "Hey Hermes, is she your daughter?" The man looked at the girl and asked: "Why isn't she with her mother? And why is she in your arms?"

He explained his plan to the god, who agreed. As the Iris message ended, Hades called another god. This one, Apollo, was sitting in his chariot. "Hey uncle. What are you holding? Is that a child?"

He and Hades agreed to give some powers to the young one, as much as any half-blood would get. All the Hermes in the child would soon be gone.

Death himself set the baby on the doorstep on his son, ringing the doorbell. He heard Nico and Will walk toward the door, they had just arrived from their night out. Then, death's son opened the door. "Dad? Why are you here? And why... why is there a baby, dad?"

"Um, so I remembered you saying you wanted a daughter and I saw the look on your face when that woman showed you the baby. So, she... died. In an unfortunate accident. And Apollo and me have changed her powers from Hermes' to ours. She is officially a DiAngelo-Solace, you're welcome."

Then, he disappeared into thin air, leaving the shocked couple with their new daughter. "Eve is her name right?" Will asked his boyfriend. "I think so, yeah. But I think I'd rather her have a name like Thana." Nico answered.

"Nico... We are not naming our child death. And I like Eve. It actually means mother of all living, which is perfect for our daughter. And we already know what her middle name is right?"

"Of course. I've known the middle name of my daughter would be Bianca since, you know, and if you had disagreed, I would have thrown you into hell."

"Perfect. So hello, Eve Bianca DiAngelo-Solace, and welcome home." Will said as he entered the house with the adorable baby.

2020:

It had been only a few weeks since the couple had received Eve and it was the first time Nico had to take care of Eve for more than a minute.

She was in playpen, rolling around and smiling at her father. Will was trying to get a bit of work done for once and Nico was sat on the couch eating a double chocolate chip cookie, which was "as dark as his soul" as he called it.

Everything had been going very well as of then, and Nico was starting to dread the moment when Evie would stop being so cute and giggly and become the monster he knew babies usually were. It had only been an hour since Will had started working but Eve cried every hour or so and she was starting to look less and less happy.

Then, all hell broke loose. She started crying at the top of her lungs and Nico covered his ears. He tried to figure out what was wrong with her, starting by sniffing her diaper. He had never changed a diaper and wasn't planning to start doing so. Luckily, she only smelled of baby powder.

Still, she wouldn't stop crying. She was trying to grab for something, and her father didn't understand what. Nico put her down on the carpet and she managed to grab the cookie from the table and waved it everywhere. She had stopped crying so Nico picked her back up and sat her down on his leg.

He took the cookie from her and tentatively put it in her mouth. She sucked on the cookie, clearly very happy to be eating food. Then, he picked Eve up to go show that he had managed to feed his daughter.

He walk to their room where Will was working and said: "Look, Will, I managed to feed her!"

Will's eyes went wide when he realized what Nico was feeding the baby. "Nico, you're supposed to give her milk, not your cookie! She doesn't even have teeth, how is she going to eat that?" He took Eve from Nico's arms and removed the cookie from her mouth, which caused her to scream and cry again.

"I'll let her have it, just this once. But never again, death boy."

2023:

Toddler Eve was the cutest thing. She loved her fathers more than everything and loved running around with them. She loved giving hugs and had recently started gymnastics at a gym close to home.

Now she was trying to get her cartwheels right, doing them up and down the hallway while Nico watched over her with the biggest smile on his face. Will was in the kitchen, preparing some double chocolate chip cookies.

Over the last years, Nico kept sneaking some of his cookies to Eve, and she started getting addicted to the sugar. She constantly asked for cookies or candy and got mad when she wasnt allowed any.

That day, Eve hadn't realized yet that her papa was making some right now. So when he said "Ohhhh, the cookies are ready.", she stopped in her tracks and ran to her papa, pulling along her daddy by the hand.

She climbed on Will's leg and played with his apron as he used pink oven mitts to take the cookies out.

"COOKIEEEEE!!! Can I have some? Please. Please papaaaaa. I love youuuu. Can I get some cookies please?" she asked. Will sighed at the adorable sight of his daughter begging for sugar.

"Of course you can, sweetheart." That girl was definitely going to always love sugar.
