(How they met)
Things between the (*****) are flashbacks (...) passage of time
Will got back to his apartment building after a long day of classes and felt like his head was going to explode from all of the information he had to cram into it for the up-coming exam and trudged up the stairs to the second floor where he lived. Just as he was putting his key into the lock of his door he saw that his new neighbor was just coming home too. Will couldn't help noticing the beautiful dark haired boy whenever he saw him, his black hair looked so soft and his dark eyes which Will still wondered if they were black or just a really dark brown, seemed to hold a quiet intensity that made Will want to get lost in them.
His name is Nico and he had just moved in not that long ago and Will had instantly fallen for him the moment he first saw him. Okay so that seemed cheesy but it was true, Will had always been attracted to the dark and silent types and that described Nico perfectly. He dressed in dark colors all the time and his olive skin and dark hair and eyes were absolutely breathtaking.
Will had been down in the main entryway checking his mail after getting home when he noticed the stack of boxes by the stairs and the one propping open the door. He was curious who would be moving in so he watched as a guy maybe about his age came in carrying another box and adding it to the pile by the stairs, he seemed to be the only one so Will decided to go over and talk to him to see if he wanted a hand, after all that would be the neighborly thing to do right?
When he had gotten close enough to the guy he asked "Hey, would you like a hand with those boxes?" when the guy had looked up Wills heart almost stopped Good God he's gorgeous! Will thought to himself but managed not to let his shock at the strangers beauty show on his face and tried to keep his cool as he continued to speak. "I'm Will Solace, I live in the building and I know how hard it can be moving and you don't appear to have anyone to help so if you would like I could give you a hand." Please don't sound pushy or too eager, God please don't sound desperate! Will was silently freaking out in his head as the new guy seemed to think over his offer.
"Sure, I could use the help." God even his voice was beautiful! Yeah Will had it bad and they had only just met. "My name is Nico by the way, Nico di Angelo. Since you introduced yourself the least I can do is return the favor." His name is even beautiful! It really suits him too. But on the outside all Will did was give a friendly smile and offer his hand to shake, which Nico took and small as the gesture was Will could swear he felt a connection between the two of them pass over him like a shock running up his spine as their hands made contact. Stop sounding like a teen drama damnit! Will chided his inner voice. Because really did he have to be such a sap?
Nico oblivious to Wills inner battle with his thoughts turned back to the door and went outside to grab more boxes from the moving van he had rented, and once Will could snap himself out of his thoughts he followed suit. "I'm on the second floor, in 208. I wasn't really sure how I was going to do this on my own, maybe just unload all of my stuff into the foyer after getting it from the van and then hope for the best as I went back and forth bringing them to my suite." He was saying; that first part really grabbed Wills attention. "Well aren't you lucky I happened along then, I'm in 209."
He caught the slight smile on Nico's lips as he turned back to the building with a box in his arms marked kitchen. Will couldn't believe his luck that such a hot guy was going to be living so close to him. Okay cool it before you start sounding creepy. He chided himself again as he helped unload boxes and take them inside. When they had everything inside they took turns carrying boxes up the stairs to the door of Nico's new apartment until everything was there then when they got it all inside Will felt himself feeling brave so he asked "Well since you just moved in and all and everything is still packed how about coming over for a cup of coffee or tea or something and take a break for now? I'm sure you could really use something to get your energy back after all of that."
"Sure that sounds great actually. I could really go for some coffee right now." Great! Will thought to himself. "I'll put some on right away, come on over and relax for a bit." Will led the way to his place and left Nico to relax on the couch in the living room while he headed to the kitchen and started on the coffee. "If you want to watch something go right ahead, I have a good cable package but I don't really get to enjoy it much since I'm at school or stuck studying so much and I wok late on weekends." He said while standing at the edge of the kitchen. "Okay thanks." Nico said as he picked up the remote and started searching for something to watch. "So do you go to school nearby?" he asked Will. "Yeah I'm pre-med and I work part-time at the local animal shelter it's kind of hectic some days." Nico smiled at that but Will could only catch a glimpse of it from where he was standing.
It had been a week since then and Will still couldn't believe just how comfortable he was talking with Nico even though they had only just met, he really hoped that there could be something between them but he fought that hope with logic as best he could You don't even know if he's into guys! But that didn't stop him from trying to be friends at the very least.
As often as he could Will would talk to Nico when they passed in the hallway or on the stairs or at the mailboxes in the main foyer. He really wanted to get to know Nico better to find out if he even stood a chance of being able to ask him out but he just couldn't bring it up when they talked. But when people kept showing up at Nico's place regularly he wondered if maybe he had missed his chance.
...
Will had come to recognise a few of the visitors at frequented Nico's apartment. There was a blond boy with blue eye's like Wills own but with slightly different coloring, a boy with windswept black hair and sea green eyes that was clearly attractive and either of them tended to hang onto Nico, usually giving him hugs or draping an arm over his shoulder and laughing at something he said, there was a girl with the complexion of warm cocoa and golden eyes that went beautifully with her honey colored hair and he had seen Nico give her a peck on the cheek as they were saying goodbye one day, he had closed his door quickly but quietly so he wouldn't be noticed. There was also a girl with similar hair and eyes to Nico but they didn't appear related in any way, he had also seen them embracing outside of Nico's door and it was clear that whatever their relationship they were close. Will had no idea what Nico's relationship with any of them was but he couldn't help wishing that he could be close to him too.
Okay I was just blazing through this holy crap! So I was listening to my music (as many of these seem to start I know) and I thought that I might as well do a multi chapter story based on the songs I listen to.
I'm so sorry I keep getting distracted from my other stories but I promise that I am working on them it's just going slowly.
Sorry if you're not a fan of Nickelback but I am and have been most of my life and a few of the songs in this will be by them.
Please let me know what you think!
