A/N: There you go! Just as promised. :)

It was around midnight and the lights in Hades Cabin were still on. If one heard closely, he could hear two voices talking.

"It feels weird with Mr. D no more here." Nico said.

"Tell me about it! I have grown so used to his non chalance and, can I tell you a secret?" Will asked. Nico nodded. "I'm kinda nervous about tomorrow. My DAD is the new director now!"

"I can understand. You know, somebody recently taught me to be optimistic." Nico winked. "You get to see your dad almost everyday, something most demigods are deprived of."

"If you think about it that way. That's certainly a plus point. Although, I dont know how to react to this. I dont know how my dad would react."

"I think you are thinking too much here." Nico said, touching his hand.

Over the last few days, Nico and Will had become quite close. Closer than Nico had ever been to, except for Reyna maybe. Nico and Will knew each others fears and secrets. Will had told him he was gay. Nico was surprised to hear it, to say the least. He was also quick to share his secret with him. Since then, the two had been inseparable. They had finally found someone who understood how it was to be different.

Through the dim light, one wouldn't be able to tell the faint blush on both their cheeks.

"Thank you Nico. I really needed to talk to someone about everything and couldn't think of anyone else."

"Sure! What are friends for!" Nico grimaced at the word "friends." Were they really just friends or dare he hope, something more?

"I think I should get going now. I'll have to be careful of the patrol harpies might catch me." Wil said.

"You be careful. Goodnight!" Nico and Will stood there awkwardly not knowing what to do. Finally, they settled for a handshake.

"Nice chat?" Apollo commented cooly.

"Dad!" Will gasped."How...?"

"How I found you here? How I knew about your chat? Well, I am a god afterall. Nothing remains hidden from us." Apollo said.

"Oh."

"Yeah. I couldn't sleep anyway. So i decided to take a stroll..." Apollo said.

"Nervous?"

"Maybe a little." Apollo shrugged.

"I think you will be great."

"You do? Why?"

"Because you are the 'hot' god. Everyone likes you. Specially the girls. They all were just too stunned by todays events. I bet you'll get a grand welcome tomorrow. You'll be comfortable in no time!" Will said, grinning.

"You think so?" Apollor grinned too. "I know so." Will confirmed. "I think its time for you to go to bed now." Apollo said and Will yawned. He nodded and started walking towards his cabin. He turned around at the last moment and said,

" Welcome to camp Half Blood, dad!"
