It was a cold day, and Nico felt absolutely stupid in his new clothes. Will had insisted that if he was going to help out with the wounded he would have to wear medic's uniform. Frankly, he thought it was embarrasing. It was lucky none of his freinds could see him - except Jason.
Nico's dark hair and eyes were the only black things you could see on him, and for once, he looked like a happy demigod. His white shirt had an image of a sun on it, and the jeans were stiff. Yup - he looked ridiculous. He didn't really know why he was happy to do what Will said. All he was he wanted to please Will.
On his way out of the cabin, Nico asked his father for some help - whats happening to me? He knew his father was too busy to listen to one of his many children, but since Bianca died he hadn't had anyone else to talk to.
Bianca. Nico missed her so much, but he was happy to know that she was reborn into a loving family. Well, that was what his father told him.
As Nico walked out of his cabin, Jason spotted him. Damn Jason! He braced himself for the bombard of questions.
"Going to see Will?" Asked Jason, practically all of the camp knew that Nico was in love with Will. He turned into a blushing mess every time Will so much as looked at him.
"Yeah,"
"I'll pop by later then," He said. Nico looked at his friend.
"Thank you," He replied, and he meant it.
The parted, and Nico continued his journey to the Apollo cabin, many people stared at him as he walked. Who wouldn't? It wasn't everyday you say death's son in a nurses costume!
He arrived at the cabin and knocked softly on the door. It opened to a smiling Will Solace, and Nico couldn't help but grin back at him. Will pulled him in and set him to work right away. He was to fetch items that Will needed when asked. That would be harmless, Will had said to him, I'm sure people would feel a bit uncomfortable with death's son putting a bandage on their arm. They set to work, and they made a great team. Will would ask for something: 'Hey Death Boy, pass me a bandage,' or 'Death Boy, water please,' and so on. Nico realised that there was no point asking Will to call him Nico. In fact, he was actually beginning to like the name. What about for Will he thought. Sun kid? Sunshine? He didn't now.
It was time to swap shifts, Nico thought Will had done a fantastic job, when he had first started working, Nico had smelt death in the room, but now it had left. Will had saved so many people's lives today. Nico couldn't help but think about how his powers could help people. It was a simple question with a simple answer: He can't. Death was all he could deal with. He could even save Leo when Octavian catapulted himself up, but he didn't. He let his friend die.
"Nico? NICO!" Shouted Will, "You were fading..."
Nico froze and looked at Will. Fading? Nico had overexerted himself when he had to carry himself, Reyna, Coach Hedge and a giant statue of Athena to Camp Half-Blood using Shadow Travel, and now he was fading. He tried to put his hand on Will's shoulder, but it went straight through.
This is it. He thought, the end.
A/N: Don't forget to review! If you are going to, I would love to hear any idea's on what Nico will call Will.
