Will
Will looked around at his friends. His friends who, frankly, he hadn't known very long but had accepted him into their family.
He looked down at his boyfriend's sleeping face, so calm and free of stress for once.
He looked over at the burning tree, which nobody actually bothered putting out because who knows. Next to the tree, Will saw that Percy was finally untangled, and had pulled up a bench as well. Annabeth and Percy, or as the majority of the camp had taken to calling them, Percabeth, were sitting and cuddling, both culling a mug of hot cocoa in the hand that wasn't holding the others.
Frank and Hazel were just enjoying sitting together, as far as Will could see.
And Leo...well, it's a really good thing he's passed out before he could do any (his) life threatening gag jokes. Just in case, they learned from last year, Leo had a bed in the camp infirmary deserved for the valdezinator himself.
Will sighed. He was really happy and everything, but he had the itching feeling that they were being watched. Will looked around them, looking for monsters, when he caught a glimpse of what was obviously an Iris message hidden into the trees.
He quietly snuck out of the blanket on his shoulders, taking his hand out of Nico's, and snuck over.
Imagine his surprise at seeing two totally opposite gods staring at him like deers caught in a headlight.
"WE'VE BEEN CAUGHT!" Apollo and Hades screamed at the same time. Apollo quickly ran his hand through the mist on his side, and the connection was lost.
Will stood there for a minute before bursting into laughter. He walked back to the clearing, where a concerned seven rushed over (Nico was still sleeping and so was Leo.)
"Will. What happened." Annabeth ordered. Will took a deep breath, finally calming down.
"Dad...And Hades...spying on me and nico!" And then he started laughing harder, falling on the ground with a full 'thud'.
Everybody just stood there, dumbfounded, until Percy broke it with a laugh. This lead everybody else to break down laughing, fall on the ground, and not want to get up.
All the gods stared down at the odd gathering of their children from high on Olympus, even the ones whose children weren't there.
Aphrodite was squealing like it was Valentine's Day, Hades and Apollo were looking at 'solangelo' again through shadows, Zeus was smiling slightly at his son, although Hera looked like she'd just been given a sour candy cane.
Poseidon and Athena had put aside their millennia long rivalry to both look at their kids, getting along perfectly.
Mars, not Ares, was looking at Frank with Pluto, who'd come over after a half hour of staring at Nico.
Over all, it was a pretty good Christmas, even for the people who didn't celebrate it. Suddenly, the gods all look right at you.
"Merry Christmas!" They shout at you with big smiles.
"Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!" The seven say to you happily.
