Wills POV
"Oh god" Will exclaimed "please don't give us a ship name."
"Oh but it must be done" said Michael "it is a family tradition"
"How about Nill" suggested Kayla.
"Maybe Wico" said Austin grinning.
"No I've got it" shouted Lee "Solangelo. That sounds good"
"Oh my god, that's sounds adorable" squealed Michael.
Will buried his face in his hands. He felt so embarrassed by what they were doing that he had no doubt that Nico was probably going red faced from Wills embarrassment. "What's wrong Will" said Austin "you've gone a bit red"
"I'm gonna go upstairs now before you lot can say anything else." Replied Will before getting up and exiting the kitchen.
As he walked up the stairs he bumped into his father. "What was going on in the kitchen." Said his dad "I could hear lots of yelling. Especially from Kayla."
"They were trying to decide my ship name for me and my soulmate." Will replied.
"Well it is a family tradition. What did that come up with? His father asked.
"They decided on Solangelo."
"Well I hope I get to meet him one day" he said before going to the kitchen.
Once Will got back to his room Nico started to speak to him again. "Hey, what happened with your siblings then. I could feel your embarrassment really strongly."
"Hi Nico. Well they found out about you and it's a family tradition that we have to come up with a ship name for soulmate couples."
"Oh god, what's ours then. Don't tell me we're called Nill or something."
"They did consider that but that decided to use our last names instead so ours is Solangelo."
"That's not too bad. It translates to sun angel which is quite cool. Anyway I've got to get ready for my party at my friend Jason's house later."
"Actually that is a cool na... wait are talking about Jason Grace?"
"Yeah, do you know him?"
"He's part of the same junior basketball team that I'm on. I heard about the party that he's having today. I didn't realise it was for you birthday."
Will suddenly felt excitement that must have come from Nico course through him before Nico replied.
"Why don't you come to my party later. Then we could meet."
Will then also felt excited. He would be able to meet Nico and he could find out what he looks like.
"Are you sure. I wouldn't have a present for you."
"Doesn't matter. I want to meet you anyway. We'll just have to avoid my sister so she doesn't tell you embarrassing stories about me."
"Ok then I'll see you later then."
Once Will had asked his dad if he could go to the party he went to get ready. He felt nervous about meeting Nico for the first time. What if they were completely different and ended up hating each other. Then Will would end up alone for the rest of his life. He decided to go and ask for advice from Michael who was the least likely to tease him when he would ask.
As he knocked on Michaels door he could feel Nicos nervousness as well as his own. Obviously he wasn't the only one worried about meeting each other. Knowing that Nico was scared as well helped him calm down a bit. "Hey Will what do you want." Michaels voice jolted him from his thoughts and he turned around to talk to him. "Umm, I need help. I'm meeting Nico later and I'm scared that we might not like each other. So can you give me some advice?" Will asked
"Your meeting him? So he lives close to us then?"
"He knows Jason from my junior basketball team and his birthday party is at his house."
"Why are you scared though. He's your soulmate. Your meant to be together."
"That doesn't mean we will. Mom and dad hate each other now. We don't even see mom that much. Or what If Nico dies then I won't have a soulmate." Will could feel himself starting to panic and tried to calm himself down so he didn't worry Nico.
"Hey it's all right Will. Very few soulmates end up hating each other. You'll be fine. He'll love you. I'm sure you're both massive dorks."
"Thanks Michael...I think."
As soon as he was ready he left to go to Jason's house which wasn't too far from his own. Once he got the house he knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer. He heard the door open and saw a girl with short black hair that was spiked up and startling blue eyes. "Are you here for the party?" She asked
"Um yes Nico invited me." He answered.
"What's your name?"
"Will Solace."
"Ah so you're Nicos soulmate." The girl said starting to grin
"Wha...how did you know that?" He asked surprised. Had Nico told his friends already. He hadn't even told Lou Ellen and Cecil yet.
"Nicos sister Bianca told me. I'm Thalia, Biancas soulmate." She replied.
"Do any other of Nicos friends know yet."
"No Bianca said to let Nico tell everyone else. She also said that if you hurt her brother in any way she'll set their family dog, Cerberus, on you."
Will gulped. He hadn't even met Nicos sister yet and she had already threatened him.
As he was hanging around waiting for Nico to arrive his phone started to ring. He looked and saw that Lou Ellen was calling and answered it. "Hey Lou Ellen."
"Don't you 'hey' me. Where are you? We were supposed to be meeting today."
Will suddenly remembered why he had been so excited in the morning in the first place. And now he had just abandoned both of them for a party.
"I'm so sorry, I forgot that I was meant to meet you and I won't be able to today."
"Why not? And where are you?"
"I'm...at a party."
"WHAT! You abandoned me- fine Cecil- us to go to a party."
"It's not like that. I found out who my soulmate is and he's having a party at Jason's house and he invited me."
"YOU FOUND OUT WHO YOUR SOULMATE IS AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME-US."
"I'm sorry. Look we can meet up tomorrow then I can tell you about him."
"Fine but you owe us an ice cream for leaving us. Bye."
The line then went dead and Will was left wondering why he was friends with those two. He then saw Jason looking at him puzzled and realised that Jason didn't know that him and Nico were linked. Jason started to walk over to him but luckily the door opened and everyone started cheering and Jason ended up going in the opposite direction to hug the boy who had just walked in. Will realised that this must be Nico. He had medium length black hair and was pale. He was talking with Jason when Jason then pointed at Will and Nico turned around and their eyes met. Nicos were a dark brown that Will seemed to get lost in. He then realised that Nico was walking over to him and started to panic again. "Don't panic cause I can feel it and it's making me start to panic." Nico said not making eye contact with Will.
"Sorry, but we're soulmates and we're meeting for the first time. Most people are nervous." He replied
"True. My sister told me that when her and Thalia first met Thalia was so nervous she didn't see my sister approaching until she said hi which made her jump and than punch my sister in the face."
Well then we're doing better than them."
"Oh speaking of my sister just to warn you she might threaten you later."
"Don't worry she already did that through Thalia."
"Oh god I'm so sorry."
"It's fine she's just looking out for you."
Will then noticed that Jason and another kid with black hair and green eyes were walking towards them. "I'm Nico we have other people approaching."
Nico turned around and saw both the boys and Will could feel him getting annoyed and then heard "shit, why" inside his head. "Hey language. Don't fill my innocent thoughts with your horrible words." He said jokingly.
"Is our little Nico saying rude things about us already." Said Jason grinning.
"You're only and year older than me Jason I'm not that little and you said you wouldn't embarrass me at this party."
"Actually" said Percy "we said we couldn't guarantee that."
"Come on give me today. You can do anything you want tomorrow. Also it is my party."
"Fine."they both muttered and walked off towards Bianca and Thalia. "So what do you want to do." Will asked.
"Well I got a new Mythomagic card set if you want to play."
"Sure but I've never played before so you'll have to teach me the rules."
"Okay but you'll never be able to beat me."
They wandered off to one of the garden tables around the swimming pool to play and Will was already loving hanging out with Nico.
