Hey guys its me! I thought I should let the Rome people in so this chapter lets them in I guess XD
The next chapter will be a little continued of Nico's prov. then it will go back to Wills view and thats when it all hits. Be ready for that, thats the chapter where it all starts. I am excited to hear what you think of it when it comes out (like my sexuality XD) I really do!
I love hearing from you all, it makes my day! I have been so done lately so hearing and knowing you all enjoy something I made just fills me with joy. I hope to hear more from you all, like reviews and stuff. It really keeps me going and wanting to write more.
Thats all, thanks! ~Asher
Nico's Prov
My eyes are wide and I feel a slight sigh escaped my lips. Slowly I slip my shirt off and other clothes and jump into the warm water that falls down onto me. The shower hums as the water falls from the pipes. I go to grab the shampoo bottle, my fingers wrapping around it. The soap pours into my hands then is forced onto my hair as I scrub it in. After I finish I stand in the heated water and let my thoughts carry me away. Sadly I am awoken by a knock at my bathroom door. I jump in shock and grab a towel covering myself, my face burning. I creep to the door and open it slightly peaking my head out. Hazel smiles at me awkwardly.
"Hazel, what are you doing here?" I ask in complete shock. She gives me a kind look and awkwardly gives me a hug, lucky she is my sister or I would bitch slap her.
"I came to visit, silly. I have not seen you in so long! Kinda awkward since you're not dressed but I mean, hi." She laughs letting go of me and messing with my wet hair that was pushed back like Draco Malfoy. I smile back at her and go back in the bathroom getting the clothes I put out on. I slip on my Bring Me The Horizon shirt and my black skinny jeans that are ripped in a kind of punk way. After I finish I unlock the door allowing Hazel to enter as I blow dry my hair. She watches and smiles at me, her arms crossed as she leans against the door. I reach for the wire and pull the thing out, making it shut off. Hazel scolds me for doing it this way. I roll my eyes in a teasing way and smile at her after, pushing her slightly making her lose her balance and tumble a bit. I smirk and slip my fingers through a pair of black, fingerless leather gloves. She laughs calling me an emo, I tell her to be quiet.
"So how is Rome?" I ask trying to start a conversation. She laughs again and looks at me as I tie my black converse.
"It's good, everyone is starting to accept Camp Half Blood so the fights are less. We still get little Octavian supporters here and there, but we brush them off and continue." She says sighing. I nod and hock a silver chain to my jeans, she starts cracking up.
"What are you gonna paint your nails next?" She laughs in a teasing way.
"It's still kinda on from last time." I say showing her my painted nails. "So it's okay." She rolls her eyes and walks over, kissing me on my forehead.
"You are getting taller, I had to stand on my tiptoes to get to you." She says warmly filling my heart with love. As we stare at each other the door opens and both our head move to face it. Frank and Reyna stand in the doorway, smiles painted on their faces. I smile back and walk over, pulling Reyna into a hug. I turn to Frank and shake his hand awkwardly, we still have not warmed up 100% to each other.
"How long are you guys staying?" I ask in curiosity, wanting them to stay forever.
"A week or two." Reyna answers. "Its as long as me and Frank have being Praetors and stuff. Hazel can stay as long as she likes."
"I am staying for two weeks, I can't leave you guys alone." She laughs winking. Reyna turns to me and puts her hand on my head with a grin.
"You are getting taller." She points out. I laugh and tell her Hazel said the same thing and that I thought is was only a sister thing. She shoves me and tells me to eat it.
"So." Hazel says. "Me and Reyna have a question. Frank if you don't mind stepping outside for a second." She looks at him kindly and he nods saying he will be out with Percy. He leaves making me alone with the two girls, I raise an eyebrow.
"So." Hazel says calmly.
"Who the fuck is this Will Solace boy?" Reyna asks giving me a grin. I feel my face burn red and I stand up straighter. "We heard about this son of Apollo from Percy, now spill the beans."
"Uh I was going to tell you guys and stuff." I answer awkwardly.
"We are happy for you, Nico. We just need to meet this boy and give him the threat." Hazel says with an innocent smile on her face making her seem like a angel, I can just see the halo.
"Oh uh I can introduce you to hi-"
"No need ladies!" Percy and Piper shout holding the curly blond haired boy by the arms. He looks completely startled and confused. I feel myself get defensive.
"Guys, why the fuck are you dragging him around like a rag doll?" I ask giving them both a death glare. "And might I ask why and what happened?"
"I was sitting on a bench and they picked me up and dragged me here. Also good morning, Nico." Will says smiling awkwardly. I continue to glare.
"I was not a part of this!" Frank says putting his hands up. "I went to find Percy and I see them dragging this Apollo kid to the Pl- Hades cabin."
"Well funny thing is this Apollo boy happens to be my boyfriend Will Solace." I say anger flowing through my body.
"Hello…" Will says awkwardly. "Nice to be dragged her against my free will and meet you all." He says smiling. "You all from New Rome?" He adds asking.
"Yes, my name is Reyna and this is-"
"Nico's sister Hazel, nice to meet you both." He says smiling. "Could you two let go of my arms, I need those to be a doctor, thanks." He asks with a smile. When they let go her rubs his arms and smiles awkwardly. Reyna raises an eyebrow and looks at Hazel. Reyna starts towards him and walks around him looking at him from top to bottom, I watch as all his muscles tense at the sense that her eyes are on him like glue. She stops at his face and grins, I watch him gulp still holding onto his smile.
"Well Will Solace son of Apollo, I have something to tell you and you better listen, okay?" She says giving him a nice smile her eyes piercing into his brain. He nods and his smile drops, he clenches his fists his arms locking up.
"Good, I suggest you listen well. You at all hurt this boy in any way I swear to the gods I will hunt you down holding a metal pipe, make sure it is burning hot and shove it down your throat. But trust me that's not all, I will then put you over a flaming pit and burn your flesh feeding it to my dogs. So let's make a deal, you don't hurt Nico and you get to not die in a painful way. Deal?" She finishes. Everyone's eyes are wide and full of shock, Wills on the other hand show fear. I mean he is being threatened by Reyna by all means. She raises and eyebrow snapping him out of his fear.
"Y-yes ma'am." He says looking ready to poof away. Reyna then smiles at him backing away.
"I am glad. You seem like a nice guy I hope you can prove me right, Will." She says going back to her normal self. Will nods and I try to hold in laughter.
Great intro, hello Will meet the insane people from Rome who will rip you apart. Thats one way to say welcome. To me that's more like welcome to hell, but what do I know. Well there is one thing, the look on Will's face was priceless. I am not letting him forget this day.
