By the end of the week, Nico was tired of everyone's bullshit. Especially Will's.

On Friday after school, Will decided that he'd had enough. He missed Nico.

On the walk back home, right before Nico plugged in his headphones, the one with the fucking wires, thank you very much, he felt a warm hand on his arm.

He felt it in his bones before he even turned around. Will, he thought automatically.

"Get the hell away from me, Solace."

Will hurried himself to walk next to Nico. Some car beeped in the distance. Nico wished he could do that to Will.

"Nico, this has to stop."

He kept walking. So did Will.

"Nico, please!"

"What the fuck do you want me to say, Will?" Nico snapped, turning to face Will. "You really had me fooled, you know. I seriously thought you had feelings for me."

"I do, Nico! I swear. Drew only said those things to win the goddamn contest that I don't even give a fuck about!"

A raindrop fell on Nico's cheek, and by the looks of the skies, it was probably going to start raining soon.

"No. You were always too good for me, Will. We both know it was never going to work between us."

When he started to walk away, Will grasped his hand. Nico hated how the gesture still gave him electric shots through his body. His stomach erupted with swarming butterflies.

"That's not true, Angel. I-"

"Angel?"

Will's face reddened. His eyes darted to the side before he looked down at his dirty, yellow Converse.

"Di Angelo means Angel in Italian, right? And I-I just thought it fit..."

Nico's heart was beating out of his chest, but he still turned around and started walking again. He didn't hear Will coming behind him, so he was sure that he'd given up, but then he heard the sound of a screeching car.

Was the car...driving on the sidewalk?

"NICO!"

Before he knew what was happening, Will ran to him and pushed him out of the way. Nico fell down onto the soft grass. He only saw the out-of-control car swerve onto the sidewalk before Will was hit.

Nico's blood went cold. His heart stopped.

The car sped away.

"WILL-"

Nico ran to him and immediately noticed the huge cut in Will's head. Tears started to stream down his face, and Will's blue eyes were fading into a gray-ish color.

Nico pulled his phone out right away, dialing 911 with shaky fingers. He didn't even hesitate when he told the responser that his boyfriend had been hit.

Will smiled weakly.

"B-" he coughed up blood. "Boy-"

"Dumbass." Nico crashed his lips to Will's. He kissed him with every ounce of love and appreciation he had. "I forgive you, I believe you, I'm-" he cried harder.

Will's hand tightened around Nico's. His strength was fading quickly.

"I love you, Sunshine."

Nico cried as they kissed. When he pulled away, he got to see the last moment right up to the point where Will closed his eyes, his expression painfully accepting.

The ambulance came three minutes later.

It felt like a lifetime for Nico.
