Solangelo

It was night time and more than half of the camp was asleep. It had been six months since the end of the Giant war and Nico was still around, which was surprising to a few people. But that didn't mean they weren't happy about it. Will Solace was happy about it. He often wondered why he stayed though. He knew that sometimes the Son of Hades wanted to run away. He knew that but he didn't know why. Will sighed as he walked to the woods, walking over to sit by Nico. This was where they always met at night. The blonde didn't say anything as he silently sat down beside him and Nico didn't look over. He knew Will was there.
"Why did you stay?" He asked and Nico sighed.
"What brought this on?" He asked and Will shrugged.
"Just curious." He answered and Nico looked out at the darkness in the woods.
"I stay because I know one day I won't hate myself so much and that's why I stick around." He could sense Will's shock but the blonde didn't comment on it. Nico took a deep breath.
"And I stay because I know there are people who love and care for me." He snuck a glance at Will, who was beaming with pride, and Nico smiled slightly as he leaned over and kissed him.
"I love you too, sunshine"
Will couldn't help but smile as he kissed him again.
"And I love you, death boy."
