As the Python Rises, so does Solangelo

Part 31

Nico POV:
"Please, just talk to her," Will begged the next morning. I shook my head stubbornly. I refused to even discuss his sister right now. "Nico, please do it. She's all I got left," Will continued to beg. That part hit a little to close to home for my liking.
" All you have left uh? Well, I hade a sister too Will, she was all I had and she's been gone for awhile, now I have Hazel. Which, you haven't made the effort to talk to mind you," I countered. Will's ears reddened.
"Don't even put that on me! You know I would've but I was to busy healing demigods!" Will argued.
"Clearly not a very good job," I mumbled so quietly I didn't think he would hear it.
I was wrong.
"What did you say?" Will asked in shock.
Instantly feeling regret I told him, "nothing,"
"It wasn't 'nothing'," Will snapped, "How dare you! How, F*cking dare you di Angelo! At least I'm not the creep of the camp,"
Now it was Nico's turn to be in shock.
"W-What?" He stuttered.
Will said nothing but glared him and stormed out of the Hades Cabin, to the infirmary.
Nico didn't feel sorry, he didn't feel guilty, all he felt was pure rage.

Will POV:
How dare Nico say that to him! He knew he was awful, he knew he wasn't ever the best, but for Nico to say that was a whole new level of pain and hurt. His own boyfriend, or ex boyfriend now, Will didn't know or care, had told him he was a bad healer. The one thing Will could do, he was called bad at. This did not sit well with Will. He did, however, feel guilty about calling Nico the creep of the camp. Those guilty feelings were replaced by rage and self pity. And when Will was angry, the whole world was angry for Will did not get upset often.
