Will

Will wasn't actually insulted by Nico, he knew the boy liked privacy and alone time. He just didn't expect him to be so cold. Immediately after leaving the Dining Pavilion, Will regretted walking away. He was afraid that Nico took that too harsh, and he didn't want to upset Nico. He was just irritated that Nico had blown him off.

After he stormed out, Will headed back to the Apollo cabin. Will wanted to take a shower, but they were all taken up when he got to the bathrooms. He would have to wait. That was a little annoying as he had worked at the infirmary all night, and didn't smell that great. He was waiting for the shower, when he looked out of the window and saw Annabeth Chase and Percy Jackson walking. Will wanted to talk to Percy, so when he saw that Annabeth left him, probably to go train, he took advantage of Percy's solitude. He ran outside and yelled, "Hey Percy, man can we talk?"

Percy turned around and looked at Will. "Yeah man of course, what do you need?" Percy had lipstick on his cheeks from where Annabeth had kissed him goodbye. Will caught up to Percy, and had to take a minute to catch his breath.

"I just wanted to ask you something about Nico." Will replied after a few seconds of breathing. "He always seems to be angry at me, like at lunch I walked up to him, and he snapped at me. I may be looking too deep into it, but I was just wondering if you think he hates me or something man?" Will had a very concerned look on his face, and Percy seemed to figure out why.

"No way man, Nico is just like that, it can take him a little bit until he warms up to you, but he definitely doesn't hate you. That I know for sure." Percy replied.

Will took a sigh of relief, he was glad to hear that. The 15-year-old couldn't stand the thought of Nico de Angelo hating him. "Hey, do you know where he may be, I wanted to apologize," Will asked, trying not to look too happy about what Percy had said.

"Uh yeah, he's probably in his cabin, taking a shower or something. Hey if you find him, try to get him to play Capture the Flag tonight ok." Percy smiled and went off to train, or whatever it was that Percy did in his spare time. Meanwhile, Will headed to the Hades cabin hoping to find de Angelo. He completely forgot about wanting to shower, this took precedent.
