“Going to the bathroom,” I say. Dorian doesn’t even look up as he says, “Think of me.”
“You did,’ confirmed Nico. ‘But it was the way you did it. You made it clear that you wanted me around. You said you wanted me to come to the infirmary and help, because … because you could use a “friendly face”.’
‘It was true. And you did help.’
‘You brought me closer instead of rejecting me,’ Nico said, his voice cracking. ‘I’d never been called a friendly face. Ever. You made me rethink everything – my place in camp, my crush on Percy, my future. It took you scolding me like you were the camp director to make me realize that I was … wanted.”

“Now, wait a second,’ said Annabeth. ‘That’s not what either of us said.
In fact, I would say that you and Nico have one big advantage.’
Percy nodded. ‘You two have each other.’
Nico squinted at him. ‘Um … okay? What does that mean? Besides sounding like a cheesy Hallmark card.’
‘It’s exactly what it sounds like,’ said Annabeth. ‘Because that cheesiness is what’s going to make the journey survivable.”

“Then he gave Nico one of his soul-warming smiles. ‘I can heal people. I can glow in the dark. And … well, I met you.’
‘Oh, gods, groaned Nico. ‘No cheesiness! It’s too early in the day, Will!’
Will snuggled up to him. ‘But it’s true. I’m very thankful we’re in each other’s lives.’
‘You cheated with that answer,’ said Nico, ‘but I’ll allow it.’
Will planted a kiss on Nico’s temple. ‘My grumpy ball of darkness.”
