AN: GUESS WHO'S BACK? *point to myself* Meee! So, after 3 months of publishing nothing, I COME UP WITH SOMETHING! Special thanks to Crystal who help came up with this idea! Hope you enjoy this! I'll try to publish more often from now on!

Summary: Nico was invited to a surprise thanksgiving dinner with his father and step mother. He somehow convinced them to let his boyfriend, Will Solace, tag along. But for some reason, they thing Will Solace is actually Will Sunlight, and what is everyone's crazy obsession with calling Will "Glowing Boyfriend?"

Of Sunlight And Shadows

"So, let me get this straight," Hades said as he sat on his throne in the Underworld, his arms crossed. "A glowing guy is coming to the Underworld to have… thanksgiving dinner with us?"

"For the last time, dad," Nico groaned, having enough of this conversation. "His name is Will!"

"Will Sunlight?" Hades frowned as he muttered to himself. "Sunlight goes against shadows."

Persephone hit her husband on the arms from the sideline. "I might not like your… son… here, but glowing boys are always welcome at our thanksgiving dinners! Especially if he's last name is sunlight."

Nico facepalmed, wondering if it'll be better if he just shadow traveled away and spent his thanksgiving at camp. It was a surprise to him when his father and step mother personally visited him at his cabin, inviting him to a thanksgiving dinner. He accepted right away, knowing not many demigods got to spend time with their godly parents and he's considered lucky.

But then came the discussion of his boyfriend, Will Solace, who his father and step mother still thinks is called Will Sunlight. Seriously, how hard is Solace? It's So-lace. It's not hard to pronounce at all! He wanted to bring him along to the Underworld, because thanksgiving is all about family and Will is part of his family. Persephone agreed while Hades disagreed.

"What's with you and sunlight or anything that shines?" Hades grumbled. "I thought you were supposed to be on my side!"

"What is with you and shadowy things?" Persephone protested, using his own argument against him. "I thought you're on my side!"

"You came to the Underworld willingly-" Hades started as Persephone cut him off with a icy glare.

"Correction, you kidnapped me," she crossed her arms as Nico covered his ears. It's even worse when Demeter is here, the argument about cereals through into the mix of his father and step mother's daily argument. As if the fates are laughing at him, Demeter appeared before them, her gown flowing with leaves and flowers on it.

"I'll just go-" Nico started but Hades gave his son a half glare.

"We are figuring out your glowing boyfriend problem first-"

"You have a glowing boyfriend?" Demeter asked the same time Nico groaned and muttered. "He's not a glowing boyfriend!"

"Yes, my son here has a glowing boyfriend," Hades nodded as Demeter frowned.

"You cheated on my sweet daughter again?"

Nico groaned and facepalm before shouting, not caring the other three people are all immortals. "I AM BRING MY GLOWING BOYRFRIEN- I MEAN WILL HERE NO MATTER WHAT YOU THREE SAYS."

He mentally slapped himself for calling Will, "glowing boyfriends". It proves he really is spending too much time in the Underworld.

"I agree with this plan," Persephone spoke, a bit startled.

"So do I," Demeter smiled kindly. "Your glowing boyfriend always eats his cereal."

"Enough with the cereal, lady!" Hades glared. "I have enough of you talking about cereal! This is my Underworld! I rule it! Not you! So stop your nonsense about cereal!"

"Grumpy people are those who don't eat cereal," Demeter looked unfazed as she threw some cereal at him. "Now eat that."

"I refuse, Cereal Lady!" Hades snapped his fingers as the cereals disappeared. "Now, I have more important things to do. And you're not invited to the thanksgiving dinner!" He called over his shoulder as he left the room.

"How about you?" Demeter turned toward Nico as his eyes widened. "Have you been eating your cereal?"

"Uh…" He looked around for a way out. He stepped into the nearest shadow and disappeared, ignoring the shout of surprise and protest from Demeter.

Nico appeared back at Camp Half-Blood, his face a bit pale from the shadow travel. He dust himself off from all the cereal crumbs. He rolled his eyes, muttering under his breath, as he walked toward the infirmary. "Eat more cereal. Cereal is good. You have a glowing boyfriend?!"

"Do you?" A voice asked as Nico looked up, seeing the smiling face of his boyfriend.

"Will!" He shouted in surprise. "I didn't see you there!"

Will ignored him as he asked again. "Do you have a glowing boyfriend?"

"Yes, I do actually," Nico straightened up. "He's a handsome son of Apollo who works way too much at the infirmary and he never takes a break."

Will hits him playfully. "Well, that guy must be really lucky to be your boyfriend. Because I know a better son of Apollo who works a perfect amount at the infirmary and he do take a break."

"Oh stop," Nico scoffed. "You honestly never take a break!"

Will rolled his eyes. "Now tell me what makes you start calling me 'Glowing Boyfriend'"

"Underworld argument that should better stay in the Underworld," Nico started walking as Will follows shortly. "Those look on the bright side, you can come to our Thanksgiving dinner!"

"Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait," Will paused as he stopped walking as well, causing Nico to stop too. "You're telling me you got invited to a thanksgiving dinner with your godly parents and you didn't tell your glowing boyfriend?"

Nico raised an eyebrow as Will quickly corrected himself. "And you didn't tell me?"

"Seriously," Nico sighed. "If one more person say 'glowing boyfriend', I'll sent an army of skeleton them-"

Will cut him off with a smirk. "You just say 'glowing boyfriend'."

"SO DID YOU!" He protested as he dragged Will toward the forest, seeing some weird looks turned their way. "Maybe we should tell Mr. D about it?"

"Why can't we tell Mr. A?" Will shrugged as Nico gave him a weird look. "What? He's nicer!"

Nico sighed. "What will I do with you?"

"You know you love me," he nudged him.

"Unfortunately."

Will rolled his eyes as they changed direction, starting to walk toward the Big House instead. Dionysus was sitting there, a bottle of coke in his hand.

"Do you think we can go to the Underworld tonight for thanksgiving with Lord Hades and Lady Persephone?" Will asked politely as Dionysus looked up.

"If it wasn't Bill Sunlight and Rico de shadow," he studied them as Nico rolled his eyes at their 'new names'.

"Is it a yes or no?" Nico asked impatiently as Will put a calming hand on his shoulder.

"Fine, you can go," Dionysus said in an annoyed tone, waving his arms. "Now go bother some other gods."

Nico grumbled as Will dragged him away. "Does he have to sound so annoyed at us?"

"Well," Will started. "It's Mr. D, what else do you expect?"

"It's thanksgiving," Nico deadpanned. "He should be thankful for us demigod!"

"And why should he be thankful for us?" Will raised his eyebrow.

Nico thought about it before nodding. "Good point."

Will took Nico's hand with a small smile as he pointed to a shadow nearby. He nudged his boyfriend. "Ready to go? Thanksgiving is tonight, isn't it?"

"It is," Nico agreed as they step into the shadow, the familiar cold feeling took over as they disappeared from Camp Half-Blood.

"For gods sake, you will not be cooking our thanksgiving dinner!"

"Mother! I do not want to eat cereal for dinner!"

"But something we should be thankful for is cereal!"

"So we eat them? Good idea!" Hades' shouts could be heard all around the Underworld as Nico and Will approached them.

"Mother," Persephone complained again as she snapped her finger and another plate of normal food replaced the bowl of cereal. "If I see one more cereal on this table, I am kicking you out of the Underworld!"

Demeter looked offended. "Those cereals are good for you!"

"I don't see how eating cereal tells them that we're thankful for them," Hades snorted. "To me it feels like disrespect to the cereal."

"They didn't even notice us," Will whispered to Nico.

"They're crazy," he rolled his eyes as he cleared his throat. The three gods looked up as they quickly straightened up.

"Glowing boyfriend and not my grandchild, welcome," Demeter forced a smile on her face. "Now tell Hades and Persephone that we need cereal for dinner!"

"Uh…" both of them shuttered, unsure what to say. Demeter sighed and rolled her eyes.

"Have it your way then! I am not eating with you guys!"

"I never invite you!" Hades called out as Demeter flashed away. Persephone smiled and gestured to the table full of normal food.

"Should we eat?"

Will and Nico sat down wearily as Hades and Persephone sat down across from them. "Enjoy the food," Persephone finally said after a moment of silence.

As if a spell was broken, everyone digs in, talking and laughing, not caring that one group are gods while the other are demigods. Having dinner like a normal, or as normal as you can get living in Greek mythology, family.
