It's… White

We walk into the infirmary together and I shiver. There are so many people here.

Surely the war caused hurt to a lot of people, but I never thought it would be that much.

I can feel the death coming to some of these people. Will and his siblings won't be able to cure about one fifth of the patients. I don't know how I will be able to survive three days in this place.

"Are you okay, Death Boy?" Will asks taking me out of my thoughts. "Uh? Oh yeah." I say realizing that I had stopped walking. "Let's get you to your room." Will says moving his hand to the small of my back and leads me to a secluded room.

"Soooo here's your room!" Will says excitedly opening the door for me and I get into the room. "What do you think?" He asks smiling and I look around the room. It's a simple small room. There's a single bed on the middle and a wardrobe. "It's..." I start thinking about what to say "white." I finally conclude and Will's eyes widen.

"You don't like it? Oh Gods! I can change it for you; maybe bring some curtains and new furniture." Will starts rambling and paces around the room with a worried face. I start laughing. "No, Sunshine." I say squeezing his shoulder. "It's a good thing. Have you seen how they decorated the Hades' cabin? I swear people think that I'm a vampire!" I say with a smile on my face. That's a foreign feeling for me. I can't reckon the last time I really laughed.

"Oh!" Will says, his mouth forming an 'o' shape and he nods. "Sorry, Death Boy." He says grinning and I give him a small smile. "It's fine." I whisper. I just realize that I am way too close to Will. I feel the warmth go to my cheeks.
What on the name of Hades? Am I blushing? I didn't even think that it was possible.

Will grabs my chin and puts my head up, so I'm looking right into his eyes. His eyes are beautiful. They are so bright, a shade of blue that reminds me the sky on a beautiful summer day, when there are no clouds. And his whole face is gorgeous, not even Aphrodite could have made such a perfect boy like him. Will's gaze on me is intense, but I don't break the eye contact. I see Will's lips part and his head bent down a bit. I purse my lips and my eyes flutter closed...

"NICO!" Someone screams opening the door and me and Will pulls away quickly. I turn around and see Jason standing at the door with a bright smile on his face. "Jason." I acknowledge his presence a bit annoyed. "I came here to make you company!" He exclaims wrapping his arms around me and hugging me tightly.

I hear Will clear his throat. "I- I'm gonna go take care of the patients here." He says looking everywhere else, but at me and rushes out of the room slamming the door behind him. "What's up with Will?" Jason asks sitting on the bed I shrug in response.

"Where is Piper?" I ask changing the subject. "With Annabeth. I'm going to take her on a date tomorrow." He says grinning "Oh. That's good. What are you planning to your date?" I ask and Jason starts telling me all of his plans for tomorrow. Gods, the guy is whipped.
