SOLANGELOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

A/N: Basically how I think that Solangelo began. Begins in the three-day infirmary stay with Will. Done from a third person point of view, shows thoughts of main characters.

On the first day at the infirmary, it wasn't too bad. Basically, Will checked Nico's vitals, and did all the other normal doctor-y stuff. There were only small little awkward moments.

"Ugh. Why do I have to stay here for three days exactly?" Nico asked.

"Well, because you were almost turned into a puddle of darkness. And that would have been terrible for Hazel, Jason, the rest of the seven, me, Chiron, and pretty much the whole rest of the camps-both camps. Also, I wouldn't be able to stand seeing someone I cared for get hurt, possibly die." Will replied.

"Wait… Care for? You care. For me." Nico said incredulously.

Will blushed, and said, "Well of course. I care about all of my friends. Jason, Leo, Piper, Percy, etc."

"Oh." Nico replied.

'Was that disappointment in his voice, or was that just my imagination?' Will thought to himself.

"You know, the camp wouldn't be the same without our Death Angel."

"Don't call me that. And in what sense."

"Well, first off, everyone would be sad. Second off, we wouldn't have an emo who just sits in his cabin all day moping ador- err… annoyingly-"

"I am not an emo!"

"Third, the people who care for you the most would be depressed."

"Right. So Hazel."

"Nico, I said people, not person"

"Whatever. Who else, you? Lou Ellen? Drew?"

Will blushed a little bit, and hoped it wasn't too obvious.

"Well, anyways, it's almost 10 o'clock. The infirmary is about to close. And don't even try any underworld-y stuff, got it?" Will told Nico, and walked out of the room.

Will walked over to Chiron's office, and told Chiron about how he wanted to stay with Nico for the night, given his resistance at staying in the infirmary.

"Of course, Will. Any patient of yours is a special case." Chiron granted Will permission to stay the night.

Then, Will checked the camera in Nico's room. A dark shape was fading.

"I swear…" Will said, before sprinting out of the office.

"Nico di Angelo! What did I tell you! No more Underworld-y stuff!" Will exclaimed, bursting into the room.

On the bed where Nico had been, a dark shape slowly faded more. No response came. Then, Will heard it.

"Will… Help… I'm-I'm sorry for trying to shadow travel… I think I'm gonna pass out…" Nico whispered.

Will grabbed Nico, and his arm passed through him. Nico became just barely solid when Will tried tapping him. Will picked Nico up princess-style, and was about to go to Chiron, or maybe to the other doctors, when Nico and Will faded into the shadows.

Will was still holding Nico. They were now in the Hades cabin. Nico was barely more than a melting blob now. Will put Nico down on a bunk, and tried using his healing power. It worked, and Nico slowly became more defined, more than a blob. Once Nico was just barely solid again, Will used the rest of his strength and energy to carry him back to the infirmary.

Once Nico and Will were back in the room, Will chained Nico to the bed, the bed to a chair, and himself to the chair.

"You wouldn't dare try to teleport four things at once." Will said, before passing out.

Nico looked over. If he were to shadow travel, he would take the chain, the bed, the other chain, the chair, another chain, and Will with him. And that was too much for even the strongest descendant of Hades. It would take him, Bianca, and Hazel just to barely get them there. But Hazel was at Camp Jupiter, and Bianca was dead. Worse, she was reborn.

Nico's eyes started to well up as he remembered Bianca-her hair, her attitude, the way she scolded him. He tried to ignore the wall of remembrance, but he couldn't. It was like trying to dodge a charging, 50-foot-wide bull. It was nearly impossible. He started to remember the day that they had met Alecto. He told them their parents were dead. He remembered the day they went to Westover Hall. He remembered-Oh gods, why this memory-the day he met Percy Jackson, Annabeth Chase, and Thalia Grace. He had put up the image that he was over Percy, but he wasn't- not really, anyways.

-Flashback Begins!-

Bianca and Nico were escorted out of the dance by the headmaster. They were used almost as bait. Percy Jackson walked right into a trap. The rest was a blur- the manticore, the fight, everything- until he started asking Percy all those questions.

"Do you get into lots of arguments with Thalia because of her dad being Zeus and yours being Poseidon!? Can you surf very well!? Is Annabeth your girlfriend!?"

Looking back, it was obvious why Nico had asked Percy all those questions and basically ignored everyone else. Then, he remembered running away from Camp Half-Blood. He remembered seeing Percy again at Camp Jupiter. He remembered being trapped in a bronze jar. He remembered getting the Athena Parthenos, and getting it back to Camp Half-Blood to save them. He remembered admitting his feelings to Jason. He remembered getting hit with Eros' arrow.

"Ah. I see, you didn't forget that." A man said.

-Flashback Ends!-

Nico shot up, and reached for where his sword would be. 'Stupid hospital clothes.' Nico thought.

"What do you want, Eros." Nico said, with anger in his voice.

"Oh, just checking in. And don't try waking up your boyfriend. He's fast asleep, and besides, he wouldn't see me anyways. You can't wake up, either. Not until I'm done here." Eros replied.

Nico looked appalled. "He is not my boyfriend! I barely know him!"

"Oh, I see. Well, then, shall we venture inwards?"

"Is that not an invasion of privacy?"

"Just follow me." Eros created a reddish pink heart portal thingy.

Nico followed Eros through. After a moment of fuzzy red-pink glow, he could see, through a heart shaped clear glass like thing, Will and himself.

"Do you see now?" Eros asked.

"I see that Will is dreaming. And that this is an invasion of his personal privacy, and that you are completely ignoring that I couldn't give less than a flying piece of Hades' snot." Nico responded.

Then, Will kissed dream-Nico. It looked like Nico was surprised at first, but then kissed back.

"Okay, like I said, this is personal!" Nico exclaimed, covering his eyes and stepping backwards into the portal.

Eros followed. They were back in the infirmary. Eros had a smirk on his face.

"What can I say? I almost always invade people's dreams. As long as they have even the slightest bit of romance, I can." Eros said.

"I would smack you upside the head, but I think then I'd be cursed for life." Nico replied.

"No no, go ahead." Eros said, flying over to Nico. "I may be a rude god, but I have the decency not to curse people for one stupid thing."

Nico smacked Eros upside the head, hard. Eros flew backwards, and then vanished. A pink heart was where Eros had just been. Nico then started to see darkness all around. He remembered Tartarus perfectly, and here he was again. He ran away from the hole that lead to the place where Kronos was locked away. The ground worked against him. He slid into Tartarus. He fell. He saw images of the most painful things that had ever happened to him. Losing Bianca, watching Percy and Annabeth fall into Tartarus, being in the bronze jar, and worse and worse as he continued falling.

He then felt warm arms around him. He opened his eyes, and he was back in the infirmary. His chain connecting him to the bed was gone, as was the chain connecting Will to the chair. In fact, Will was nowhere in sight. Nico turned around and tilted his head up. He found that Will Solace behind him. Will was huddling close to Nico. Nico assumed he'd been shivering and yelping in his sleep. Nico fell asleep staring at Will's sleeping face.
