The next day when Will turned up at Nico's cabin door, he was holding a Black Hellebore. Serenity. And that's exactly how it made a smiling Nico feel.

There was no one in the infirmary that day and Will was ecstatic to spend it with Nico. Nico wasn't a morning person, even when he hadn't slept at all, but Will found it endearing. He found everything about this short, raven haired boy endearing. Every new part he found of Nico, he loved.

He found out that Nico could name a lot of flowers. After his step mother, Persephone, had given up hating him, she had taught Nico all about it. 

He found out that Nico also liked neck kisses. He would deny it but the weird tone in his voice could not be hidden. So Will kissed Nico's neck for five whole seconds as a joke and to his horror it left a hickey.

His eyes widened as he looked at it, "What?" Nico hadn't seen it yet. Oh man they were so fucked.

Nico moved his t-shirt collar out of the way and saw the mark on his neck, running his hand through his hair, "Solace, tell me I'm hallucinating."

There was something different in Nico's voice. Like he was pleased but also realising that they were fucked and that he probably shouldn't be very pleased and then blanketing all of those.

"You could wear a hoodie, babe?" Nico practically melted at the word and Will loved the effect it had on him. Hopefully that effect would last till the hickey was gone and he wouldn't murder him in his sleep.

"What if someone asks where I got it from?"

Will looked at Nico, considering, "What if we told them the truth? I mean, none of them are homophobic. We are descendants of greek gods. Unless you don't want to?"
Nico knew that eventually the camp would find out, so what if they found out like this?
