Will did, in fact, wake up early. However, he did not wake up early enough. Nico does not like to wake up early, therefore he was severly displeased when he was awoken at 7-freaking-am by a panicked Will whisper yelling "Shit shit shit!".

"What is your problem?" Nico grumbled, covering his face with a pillow.

"I woke up late!"

"Dude, breakfast hasn't even started yet. You're fine. Just go." Nico called from underneath his pillow.

This was too much social interaction for one morning.

"No! You don't understand! My siblings wake up at 7! They defintetly know I didn't come back to the cabin last night!" Will exclaimed, frantically making his bed.

"Oh my gods. I am trying to sleep." Nico grumbled and threw his pillow across the room. It hit Will in the face. The blonde looked slightly dazed for a moment, then he glared at Nico.

"Firstly, I'm glad to see that you're in a good mood after our little heart to heart. Secondly, you need to come with me and explain this whole situation." Will whispered.

Nico made some unintelligible noise in response and pulled his blankets higher.

"Nico! They're going to come looking for me!"

At this moment there came a knock on the Hades Cabin door and Will turned white as a ghost.

"They've found me!" He whispered.

"Oh my god. Sneak out the window again if it's that big of a deal." Nico grumbled.

The knocking continued.

Will frantically tried to open the window. The knocking didn't stop.

Nico opened one eye and watched in groggy amusement as Will finally opened the window and got one leg over the sill when he let out a scream and fell backwards into the cabin.

"There's a spider out there." Will whispered.

"Then I guess you're stuck here." Nico grumbled, closing his eyes again.

"Nico! Help me!" Will cried, shaking Nico's shoulders.

"Get off of me, Jesus! You're the one who snuck into my cabin." Nico cried, shoving Will away and burying himself into his blankets.

"I didn't SNEAK into anywhere. You pushed me through your window because a harpy was going to eat us!" Will exclaimed, "Now come on. I'm not facing them alone!"

"Leave me alone, Solace." Nico grumbled.

Nico was, in fact, feeling better than he had in a long time. That did not, however, make him a morning person. He definitely was not peeking over the covers at Will every so often and admiring how unfairly cute he was in the morning. He wasn't thinking that he was adorable when he was panicked over something that didn't really matter. He just definitely wasn't very interested in Will at all. Nope. Not at all.

The knocking finally stopped and Will slipped over to the door. He pulled a curtain back and peered out.

"Oh shit." He whispered and quickly jumped from the window, "Delilah and Jason are out there. Nico. Get up!"

Will proceeded to try and get Nico out of bed, which didn't go well. Nico ended up kicking Will in the chest and burrowing under his blankets. Will ripped the blankets off the bed all the while cursing and telling Nico to get up.

"This is harassment." Nico called from underneath his blanket cocoon.

He may or may not have been really enjoying this.

"Nico. Get the fuck up!" Will yelled, slapping him with a pillow.

"You know, if they didn't know you were here before… They definitely do now with your screaming." Nico's voice was muffled underneath the blankets.

"Nico! We have to get to breakfast. We are going to have questions to answer. What are we going to do!?"

"Tell them I wasn't feeling well." Nico said, "You are my doctor after all."

"Kayla isn't going to believe that." Will said.

"Then tell them the truth."

"You would be okay with that?" Will asked, incredulous.

"If it makes you happy and gets you away from me right now, I don't care what you do." Nico grumbled.

"You are impossible!" Will exclaimed, "And it's not like they'd believe the truth anyway!"

As if to prove Will's point, Jason tapped on the door.

"Guys!? Uh… Are you decent? I'm happy you're having a good time and all… Uh… I just wanted to… uh say… have fun today… and stuff…" Jason was very uncomfortable.

Nico couldn't help it. He started laughing.

"Nico. Shhhh. This isn't funny!" Will hissed.

"Oh my gods. What are you guys DOING in there!?" A new voice called.

It was Delilah.

Nico was laying flat on his back on his cot. Will had jerked his blankets off him and they were laying in the floor.

"Get up, Nico!" Will hissed.

"Go away, Solace." Nico said.

Suddenly, Nico felt warm hands close around his ankles and Will yanked him out of bed. Nico hit the ground with a thud.

"Ow." He grumbled.

"You're fine. Get up." Will hissed.

"I hate you."

"No you don't."

Nico crawled over to his blankets in the floor and curled up in them.

"You are IMPOSSIBLE!" Will exclaimed and lunged at Nico, which Nico found very irritating and very funny at the same time.

Will landed on top of Nico and was attempting to drag him away from the blankets as Nico clawed wildly for something to grab onto.

And it was at this moment that Delilah finished picking the lock on the door and swung it open.

Nico and Will froze. Nico was on his stomach, clutching the leg of the bunk bed. Will was on all fours, straddling Nico with his hands around Nico's waist in an attempt to pull him away from the bed.

They stared at Delilah in shock.

Delilah stared at them in shock.

Her lock pick fell out of her hand.

"Oh-

"Delilah this isn't-

"My-

"We weren't-

"GODS! Were you guys seriously just fuc-

"Shut up shut up shut up!" Will howled and hastily got up and tried to explain what had happened.

Nico took his blankets and got back in bed.

Then Kayla arrived.

"No note. No phone call. Nothing. You just disappeared off into the night!" Kayla exclaimed, "We thought you were dead! And then we come to find out you were SLEEPING IN THE HADES CABIN!"

"We had a medical emergency." Will said.

"Oh yeah?" Kayla asked, squinting at Will.

"Yes."

"If by medical emergency you mean too severely sex deprived teenage boys who want to-

"Kayla. Leave it." Will snapped.

"We're not done with this conversation. Later." She said, pointing a finger between Will and Nico, "I know what's going on here."

Will ran his hands through his hair nervously as Nico burrowed deeper in the covers.

"Are you guys almost ready to go?" Delilah asked, "Or do I need to leave you alone for a little while to sort all you… kinks out…"

"Uh. We need breakfast." Will said, choosing to ignore Delilah's last comment.

"I don't eat." Nico offered from his bed.

"Oh yes you do." Will snapped. He grabbed Nico by the arm and drug him out of bed and towards the pavilion.
