Time: Post-Battle Against Gaea
Ships/Pairings: Solangelo (Nico di Angelo x Will Solace)
OG Idea: I wanted to write a Crack!Fic involving Nico.
Setting: Camp Half-Blood
Characters: Annabeth C., Jason G., Percy J., Hazel L., Piper M. Leo V., (main) Demeter, Nico di A., Will S. (mentioned)
Plot: "After an explanation from Hazel, the group understand what went wrong."
Warm Resolution
Hazel quietly moved out her cabin, clutching her sketchbook. She was walking to her secret hideout when she ran into Annabeth, who ran past towards Hazel's special spot. Hazel panicked and thought, Why does she know about my spot? What is even going on?. Once she reached the clearing, she saw Jason and Percy in two chairs, with several others set up in a u-shaped fashion. Confused, Hazel steadied herself.
"Yo, Hazel," said Leo from behind her.
"Leo? You too?"
"We all know about this spot, Hazel. Great minds think alike," Jason grinned. Across from Jason, Percy shook his head violently and attempted to wack him with a fly swatter.
Hazel checked her watch and attempted to come up with an excuse. "I have to run, there's an activity that needs me!" she muttered. However, before she could even take a step, Leo raced in front of her and tried to block her from leaving.
"Nuh-uh. There's something that's been bothering all of us for a week... first, I want you to tell us where Nico is."
Earlier, Hazel had realized that she hadn't seen Nico talk with any of the Argo II crew since last week. After asking him why, she realized that there really wasn't much to worry about. As much as Nico denied liking Will, he was indeed the person she knew made Nico the most comfortable. All it really needed was time, and his reaction was understandable due to the events being so sudden.
Nico had never been a social person, and although he was just starting to come out of his shell, knowing he had a large crowd of fans who could accept him for who he is was still new concept he had to understand how to tackle.
She explained to the rest of the Argo II that Nico was still fine and only trying to take in what happened. Piper sighed. "Maybe it was too sudden. We should've held back. He's going to be on an Iris message-less mission for a few days, how are we going to apologize?"
"Piper, wait," Annabeth said. "Percy's birthday is coming up soon. Why don't we clear up the misunderstandings at the beach?"
The shore glowed a shiny gold as the sun set, the foaming waves crashing onto the light sandy beach. In the air of calmness, two teenagers sat on two brightly colored plastic beach chairs, talking with each other. Waving, Jason and Piper finally caught up with Percy and Annabeth.
"Sorry that we're late, Jason forgot the cooler. Are they here yet? ," Piper asked. Annabeth unfolded four more cheap plastic beach chairs and gestured for the two to sit down. Exhausted, Jason dropped onto his chair and almost fell over.
"Yes, although Nico is going to take a minute. He left his cabin not long after you did. Will just left to use the bathroom." They sat in silence for a while before Piper got up to open the pack of coke.
"Hand me a coke too," Percy said. "Did you remember the trash bag as well? Remember, today is a nice day, we aren't going to pollute the ocean—"
"We get it, Percy. You're almost as bad as Demeter now."
"I love the beach," Percy whispered. "It's such a nice place."
Nico, who had just arrived, said slyly, "That's no question, because he's PerSEA Jackson."
"That's our Nico!," somebody chirped.
Everybody groaned.
