Sorry it's been so long I had to deal with a funeral. In this chapter we see Nico having girl talk with Annabeth and Nico and Will take a trip to Boston to meet two memebers of our Norse family! Crossover!

Valhalla when we die!

A month had passed and I was getting stronger and healthy once again. It seemed like a vicious cycle. I get better, I snap, I hurt myself, Will heals me. Alas we made it through. Will asked if I wanted the paste to cover up all the marks on my body but I decided against it. Sometimes they are good reminders of where you have been. Stories on the skin of you will. I was back to training hard at night and Will had all but moved into my cabin.

I found myself on the dock at the sound, dipping my pale toes into the water. Annabeth made her way down the wooden planks with a glimmer of intent in her eyes. Part of me was super scared. I will never admit that to her through. Sitting down next to me I saw the way her hair glimmered in the sunset. It looked a lot like Wills. Damnit I miss Will and we haven't even been apart more than five hours.

Stupid love.

"So I got a black envelope from your dad!"

"What did it say?"

"Something along the lines of you and Will going on a trip to Valhalla?"

"Oh shit the thing with Wills mom! I forgot about that! You have contacts with the Norse gods?"

"Well my cousin Magnus is a Norse demi God and he kind of.. well he died and went to Valhalla. Did some quests and got some privileges. In Odins good books ya know?"

"Wow your family had a thing for gods."

"Your telling me! So I've arranged for you guys to see him this weekend. Him and his girl... boy... his significant partner will be meeting you in Boston."

"Wanna explain that?"

"Magnus is dating a trans gendered person. Because of her demi God powers she can't really control whether she is male or female so it's not like she's transitioning to her true gender so she's... gender fluid? From what Magnus tells me just go with the pronoun she unless she corrects you. By the way he's the son of Frey."

"What does he look like?"

"Blonde.. blue eyed... healer..."

"Oh so totally my type!"

"Yeah I guess so! Well he's a little dead but.. yeah your type."

"Blonde healers are my cup of tea."

"Well now we know since Percy isn't your type!"

"Wow he is never going to let me live hag shit down is he?"

"I think you may have hurt his feelings."

"Well it's not that he's not my type, honestly I didn't even know my type. It was just like a hero worship thing I think. I don't think of him the way I think of Will."

"You mean naked?"

"I don't need to think of Will naked all I have to do is touch him a bit... and I'm oversharing!"

"No please go on I would love to have girl talk about our boyfriends!"

"Girl talk huh? I've never done that."

"Well ok start since you are new to it. So since you have seen Will naked can I assume you to are... ya know... doing it."

"I can't believe the smartest girl in the world just said "doing it."

"C'mon Neeks spill!"

"Yeah ok we are in a physical relationship. A first for both of us. I won't lie it was amazing. So much better than anything I've seen or read about it. Like stars exploding from inside you. It's the best thing. I can't believe I waited as long as we did. If I would have known it was that great I would have jumped him the moment the war ended. What about you and Perce?"

"Yeah well yes we are physical."

"Will and I only started like two months ago. When did you lose it?"

"On the Argo II on the way to save you."

"So while I was trapped as a pawn in a very small bronze jar, you were losing your vCard?"

"Well when you put it that way!"

"I'm just giving you a hard time. So how is he?"

"Well I don't think I've ever seen stars if that's what your asking."

"What? So like.. he's bad in bed?".

"I wouldn't say bad it's just not like what you are experiencing. The way you just described it.. I'm kinda jealous!"

"That's the beauty of is Anna! It's this all encompassing love that rips into you and throws you into this deep level of intimacy that just... melts over your soul. It's going to heaven and coming back alive. Over and over again."

"Wow.. how often do you... go to heaven?"

"Like twice a day. More on the weekends. You?"

"Oh shit well umm we uh. I guess we do it like twice a week? If I give in. It's just not like that with me. What your describing is like what people write in novels. It's not what sex is really like."

"Well maybe not for you but for me that's exactly what it's like. I'm not even exaggerating it's like the best thing I've ever experienced. How can you not like it!"

"I don't know, maybe because I've never... gotten there.."

"Wait so you haven't ever.. you haven't ever had an... you never once.. finished?"

"See everyone says that but what is that really!"

"Anna it's an orgasm! Like an explosion inside you with a pulse!"

"I've never had one! There is something wrong with me!"

"Maybe it's not you. Maybe it's him. Is it just that he's not doing it right?"

"Ok, I can't believe I'm telling you this. It's like we start and it's great. We kiss and we get undressed and then he just... shoves it on and goes for about 15 minutes and then he's done and he goes to sleep."

"Wow i dodged a fucking bullet!

"Shut up! What else is there!"

"I don't know, how about foreplay."

"What?"

"I've read a bunch of stuff from Wills library. Especially when we started so I could pick up a thing or two. Go and look up a magazine called Cosmo. It will explain a lot of things. Oh and try having him get you there first before he goes for his own."

"Ya know I never thought I would be asking Nico Di Angelo for sex advice."

"Well the more you know!"

"I'll look up those tips. Maybe by the time you are back from Boston I'll have a better story for you on the dock."

"Ok I got to ask.. is he big?"

"Average."

"Whoa yeah dodged a bullet."

"Will?"

"Honey I couldn't sit for 2 days."

"Oh my word! That big?"

"That big (wink)"

"Well arnt you the lucky boy!"

"I really am. More than you know."

"Well then maybe you should send Will over to Percy's cabin to give him a few tips on pleasing his lover."

"I could do that ya know."

"Maybe when you guys get back."

"When do we leave?"

"Tomorrow around 11 of you are shadows traveling. 9 if you are risking the train."

"Nah I'm good I can get us to Boston. I feel a lot stronger now."

"Good! Here is the address you should travel to. It's a coffee shop he likes to go to. Magnus loves scones."

"I'll keep that in mind."

"Good luck Nico. I really enjoyed this talk. We should have girl talk more often."

"Yeah it was awesome. Next time we should include Piper and Rachel."

"Agreed."

Taking Wills hand the next morning around 10:45am, I pulled in the darkness around us in a wet blanket of whooshing sound and reverberation. Landing infront of a coffee shop the most tricked the mortals into seeing two kids tripping over eachother. Looking around I saw a head of spun gold that matched Annabeths shade perfectly. Magnus was sitting with a striking person that adorned green hair and green and pink clothing. Gender fluid was right on the money. Walking over to them Wills hand still entwined in mine we sat down across from them.

"Hey! I'm Nico Di Angelo and this is Will Solace. We are friends of Annabeths."

Shaking our hands Magnus introduced himself along with the lovely Alex fierro. Two perfect coffees were waiting for us along with scones.

"So Will who is your godly parent since we are all in the demi club!" Asked Alex intrigued.

"Apollo. I'm a healer."

She looked at him closely and then darted her eyes over to Magnus and then back to Will. Then she looked me dead in the eyes.

"Guess we both have something in common huh?"

Both blondes looked confused and well... their hair didn't help with how they weren't catching on.

"She means we both like blonde healers."

Both of their light bulbs finally went off with a king above their heads. Then it was like both blonde boys ended up checking eachother over and then looking at each others lover. As is they were comparing and contrasting.

"Ok bimbos lets not play the "which healer has he cuter boyfriend game" ok."

"We were not! Never mind. Are you guys ready to head to Valhalla? The All-father sent you special passes. They are only for a day and who knows how long it will take to find the person you are looking for."

"Oh we are looking for my mother. Her name is Naomi Solace."

"Oh shit! I know your mom! She plays at that country bar on the 18th floor." She said to Magnus.

Magnus shook his head in understanding. Walking to the edge of the pond he took his necklace off and it became a sword. Cutting into the air a sort of portal appeared and we stepped through. Reattaching the necklace as we walked up the grass to what looked like a luxury hotel I laughed internally at Magnus with his sword necklace. Reminded me of riptide.

Walking into the obvious Norse decor I could feel the dead energy whirling around me in a whole new way. The feeling was palpable. Maybe because I was the child of a death god. Terrible elevator music filled our ears as we chatted small talk to eachother and hit the number 18 on the elevator. Will was stiff and not talking. Nervous was an understatement. Sweat beaded on his forehead as the floors flew by.

"Are you ok sunshine?" I held his hand tighter.

"I'm fine just.. just a little overwhelmed. I haven't seen her in 6 years and I only found out recently that she had died."

" Well she's here so she died bravely." Stated Magnus with all the confidence of his own statement.

Dinging the elevator came to a stop... Will froze as we tried to exit

To be conintuned...

Please review I'm trying not to give up on this series!
