Who is Will?
"Where am I? Who are you? And why are you touching me?" Nico said, as he pushed this strange guy away. Who was he? Like didn't he know he hated being touched? Well of course, looks like that, knowing the fact that he had just met this guy. He shook his head as he looked around, and then a second later, being tackle – hugged by someone. He was about to shout at that person, when… wait… is that…
"Bia? Is that you?" Nico asked, astonished… ok wait… hold on.
"Where am I? Is this heaven? That explains why I can see you… and mom? Did I die? Did the…" he took a second to recollect what was wrong with him… "Cancer? The cancer did, did it finally get too much for me to handle?"
Bianca nodded, with tears in her eyes, "Yes, soldatino. I am sorry, but I'm glad that you are with us now… where is Will?"
Nico felt so good to hear that endearment, it had been too long… but… who was this guy?
"Umm…. Who? Who is Will?"
"What do you mean? You know, Will? Will Solace? The angel who helped you with your cancer… lover boy? Sunshine?" Bianca said, but Nico's face just got more confused with each words.
"Bia? I have no idea what you are talking…?" His words were interrupted by a very heartbroken sob, from somewhere behind them.
All of them turned around, to find the same guy whom Nico had pushed down on his butt.
Bianca ran towards him, and enveloped him a hug.
"Will? Will, Darlin' are you alright?" Bia said as she ran her hands through his hair…
"He… He doesn't… remember me… Neeks doesn't…" He finally broke down, and Nico's heart strangely ached to see someone in so much pain, but that was before Bianca started singing "soldatino" to him.
"Hey!" he shouted, but was shot down by a look he had never seen on Bianca's face, "Not now Nico."
This sparked jealousy and anger in Nico. Anger because Bianca never… never shot Nico down. And Jealousy because, 1. That was Nico's song, only his. Bia always sang it for him and only him, and 2. Because, for some unknown reason, he was jealous of Bianca. He felt that he should be the one consoling the golden haired boy, not his sister. He was cute. He would give him that. Which raised a sense of Déjà vu. But anger and jealously was squashing them down. Luckily his mom led him away.
"Mio Caro. Come along. Would you like to eat some of my pasta?" His mom said. Nico nodded and started to walk away, but his mom wasn't walking along with him. He turned to find his mom, hug and pat, the other guy's head, and follow him, although his mom had this sad expression on her face. Who was this guy, who had captured both his mom's and Bia's feelings.
"Mom?"
"Yes dear? Who is this guy?"
His mom hesitated before deciding something. "I think time will tell you dear."
Nico nodded, before realizing something. "Mom, how's dad holding up?"
"He is… well sad… and heartbroken. He really misses you and Will." She said looking at him.
Again this Will guy comes in. Who was he? He knew dad too? What the hell?
As Maria, saw Nico's expression, she realized her blunder. "Come on, you have to go through judgement though. But I know you will be living with us."
"Judgement?"
"Yeah, there are three judges who decide your fate. Come on let's go to them."
Maria led Nico to three judges, who sat on a huge stage. They looked up when Nico arrived.
"Hello Nico Di Angelo." Their voices echoed in the empty hall.
"M...Mom?" Nico turned to look at his mom, but she was no longer there.
He turned back towards the judges. The judges' expression softened as they looked at him.
"This will hurt a little, but it will be done quickly if you try not to react"
"What will?" he said as he gasped out in pain. He tried to push the three voices prodding his brain, but remembered their advice and opened up. The pain receded. A bit. It felt like hours before they left him. He breathed a sigh of relief.
He opened his eyes and noticed that the judges' expression had gone a little sad, but it quickly turned a neutral expression when they noticed him looking.
"You have lived a great life Mr Nico Di Angelo. You will be living with your mom and sister. We will give you enough time to consider whether you want to become an angel, choose rebirth or continue living your life as a soul." The judges said as one.
Nico knew he wanted to stay with his families, and was about to say something, but his heart didn't agree. Something felt wrong with that decision. He also felt that this chance was rarely given to people. So he nodded and said, "I will get back to you shortly." He bowed and left.
His mom was waiting outside for him. He said that he would be living with him.
He wanted to rest for a while. This day had been strangely long, tiring and most of all confusing. He kept having small flashes of memories, just voices, but no images. He kept quiet and knew that he would get answers soon. Very soon. He promised himself that.
