Ahh! Sorry that its been so long! I wanted to write and finish this chapter sooner, but I had too much do. Dx
Anywho, PJO does not belong to me, it belongs to Rick Riordan.
Nico woke up with a splitting headache. He had no idea why. He definitely didn't feel sick, but his headache and dizziness said otherwise.
He pushed the covers off of himself and was shocked to see a green hospital gown on him instead of his usual aviator jacket and other black clothing.
The son of Hades didn't know why he needed to wear such a foul and disgusting thing. Besides its not like-
His train of thought was cut short when he had a suddon realization. When he was sleeping, someone must have taken off all of his clothes and re-dressed him.
He felt his face heat up at the thought of someone seeing him naked.
Then he saw Will walk in. Nico quickly ducked back under his covers and tried to fake sleep.
But the son of Apollo seemed to be smarter than he let on.
"I sae you awak Nico. Now sit up so I can check your health." He said, crossing his arms.
Nico sighed loudly and pushed the covers down off of his face roughly.
He coughed twice (he didn't want to, but his bodymade him do it) and his face turned into a scowl, as if he was daring Will to say something.
But to his surprise, Will's expression softened.
"Nico, are you sick?" He asked with a gentle voice.
"Wha- no! No I- *cough cough* -am not..." he knew that he couldn't argue with a son of Apollo, so he hung his head in defeat.
"Okay, well, you might need to stay in the infirmary for a little longer then." Will said with a smile.
"WHAT?! No! I'm only staying for the three days that I promised!" Nico argued.
Will shook his head, "Not if you're still sick."
"Watch. I'm allready fine." And with that, Nico swung his legs over the side of his bed and was about to get up, when suddenly-
"NICO! YOU ARE NOT GETTING OUT OF THAT BED!" Will screamed and pushed Nico back onto the bed. Will had his hands on Nico's shoulders, pushing him down roughly.
And at that moment, Percy and Annabeth decided to walk in the room.
Nico forcefully shoved Will off of him when he saw Percy. His ears reddened as he ducked back under his blanket as quick as he could.
"Hey Will, is Nico awake?" Annabeth asked. Nico could hear their two sets of footprints getting closer to his bed.
He went deeper into his covers and wrapped them around himself tighter.
"Yeah, but I don't know why he is under his covers..." Will replied, extremely confused.
"Oh, I think I know why." Nico could practically hear the smirk in Annabeth's voice.
"Why?" Percy asked.
Nico mentally slapped himself. Idiot.
"Seaweed brain." Was Annabeth's reply.
"So... why are you guys here?" Will asked, still confused.
"We just wanted to check up on Nico." Percy told him.
"Actually... Will, can Percy and I talk to you for a second over there?" Annabeth gestured to outside of the infirmary.
"Uhh... sure."
Nico heard their footsteps exit the infirmary.
Oh no. Annabeth and Percy were going to tell Will. He knew it.
They were going to tell Will he was gay. Will would probably hate him now. Heck, Will would probably get another Apollo child to take care of Nico so he wouldn't have to.
Nico choked back a sob.
Will would never talk to him again.
Percy and Annabeth were probably telling Will to be careful around him and to not get too close so that Nico wouldn't get too many feelings towards the son of Apollo.
And that's when Nico decided that it was best for him to leave.
"So, what did you guys want to talk to me about? Because I need to go check on Nico. I'm pretty sure he has a cold or fever or something." Will told them.
"Okay, it'll be quick." Annabeth promised. "Nico has always had a rough life. You probably know allready that he was born about forty years ago and stayed in the Lotus Casino (Will nodded) and that his sister died (he nodded again) but he also had so many more things happen to him. Like he was turned into corn (Will raised an eyebrow at that), he had to go through Tartarus alone. He was also captured by two giants and was practically starved to death. And when we finally rescued him, he had to shadow-travel coach Hedge, Reyna, and the Athena Parthenos basically half-way across the world. So, if he is a bit mean to you, or if he tries to get you to leave him alone, or if it seems like he doesn't trust you, whatever you do, do NOT let him be alone. Okay?"
Will was shocked to hear that Nico had to go through this all alone. He promised Annabeth and Percy that of course he wouldn't leave Nico alone.
Will walked back to the infirmary after saying his goodbye's to Annabeth and Percy.
When he arrived at Nico's bed he found, instead of Nico, a piece of paoer with a quickly written note on it.
It said: 'I'm sorry Will. I know you must be disgusted with me by now, and I dont want any more pain. Please don't look for me.
Will stared wide eyed at the note for a moment, before rushing outside to get Annabeth and Percy.
He showed them the letter and Annabeth quickly told them to get Jason, Piper, Hazel, Leo, and Frank.
Once everyone was settled in the Posiedon cabin, their 'Nico-search-and-rescue mission' started.
"Why don't we split up into groups and search in different places?" Will suggested.
"Not until we figure out the places that Nico could have gone." Annabeth told him, shaking her head sadly.
Leo raised his hand.
"If it involves any sort of explosive in any sort of way, then he answer is, 'No'." Annabeth told him, turning her head to face him.
Leo put his hand down.
The conversation picked up again, but they weren't getting anywhere.
Will sighed sadly.
'Why do you think people would want you to leave?' Will asked Nico menatally, even though he knew the son of Hades couldn't hear him.
Aaaand this is where I'm ending this chapter! Ha! I'm evil :D
NICO: Why do you want to be evil...?
WILL: Nico... don't start to be mean.
ME: Dont't worry my dear William. My dear Nico has the right to ask that question.
NICO AND WILL: Don't call me yours. You don't own me.
ME: Yes! You two are so cute!
NICO: *blushes* DON'T call me cute.
WILL: Aww! But you aaaaare!
NICO: *blushes again*
Okay, but seriously my loyal fans, do you think that I should have Nico and Will be fans of anime?
Also, any ideas on how to get Nico back? I want to hear what you guys want in this story!
Peace out,
