Sister's approval
Will was sleeping peacefully cuddled up to Nico, when he got a call from his dad. Now, let me be clear, it's not like all the angels have phones and they can message each other, whenever they want to meet. It's more of a telepathic message. So when Will had received a message from his dad, asking him to come and report about his case, Will was half tempted to decline it, but the angels didn't work that way. So, he had sighed and then after a moment's thought, decided to take his Mickey Mouse along with him, so he could keep it in his room.
After an hour of the meeting (during which, Will was highly tempted to go back and cuddle with his Italian-not-so-sure-boyfriend), which also had other angels reporting their cases, Apollo had went to talk personally with Will. Will was setting up his room, placing the Mickey mouse and all of his and Nico's photos taken during the Disneyland visit, when Apollo cleared his throat, causing Will to jump a feet in the air. He turned around, blushing and hiding the photos in the pocket of his hoddie (which was completely unnecessary because Apollo had already seen it). Apollo came forward and asked "May I?" gesturing to the photos. Will unable to escape, nodded his head and gave Apollo the photos. Apollo smiled and even laughed at some of the dorky photos. He handed Will the photos back, but his expression had changed from smiley to all serious, way to serious. He put a hand on Will's shoulder and said "There has been a miscalculation Will. Usually, we are always right, but…umm… sometimes the disease moves way faster than what we can control. It has occurred to almost all the angels, but I am sad that this happened during your first case. Nico has no more than a week left, it might be a couple of days after his birthday, we will try to stretch it, but sometimes, even we can't control it. Just be sure to complete all his wishes son." Even though Apollo was the chief of the angels, and he had calculated the days, and had an idea when exactly Nico Di Angelo might die, he did not want his son's heart to break. He decided it would be better, if it happened suddenly instead of Will going into shock and crying until the day it happened. He had seen Will when his elder brothers had died, he did not want that to happen again. Speaking of which, Will was already crying and shaking so badly, others might think he was having a seizure.
"Chief Angel, Dad! Do something! This can't happen. He still has so many wishes to be completed. I want to … no, please do something dad!"
"I am sorry Will." Apollo said patting his back, and letting his son hug him. He started rubbing his son's back soothingly, when someone knocked on Will's door. Apollo nodded his head towards his son, whispered a take care and goodbye son and left. Will rubbed his eyes and went to open the door. And standing in front of him was Bianca Di Angelo.
She comes inside a takes a seat beside him, then looks him right in the eye and asks, "Do you love my little brother Will?"
Will looks at Bianca, and then thinks, does he love Nico? Yes he likes him, and that every minute without him feels like torture, and even though, after Nico dies, he will always be with Will, but then why is Will so sad about it? Why has Nico's every smile become so… so precious to him? He looks back at Bianca, knowing what he now knows, and nods.
Bianca smiles, and ruffles Will's hair and says, "Well, I could not have asked for a better person for my Neeks, but if you do anything, anything at all to hurt him, I will kill you, and make it painful." Will gulps, knowing full well that she was serious, which causes Bianca to smile at him, and begins to go out when suddenly recollecting why she was here in the first place. "Ohh, here give this to Neeks."
When Will is allowed to return, he grabs two happy meals on the way and makes his way home. But everything becomes blurry when he sees Nico.
