(PART II MEETING APOLLO!)

"Hey Neeks! I got ahold of my dad! You can finally meet him!" Will cheered, bursting into the Hades cabin. Nico looked up from his book and smiled, getting up to follow Will.

It had been a few days since Will met Hades, Nico's father, and now Nico can finally meet Will's dad. The meeting with Hades was..interesting...so hopefully Apollo will be a little more normal. Wait a second..that's not possible. We are talking about the gods here. Will and Nico both knew talking to Apollo will be a major headache. Well, might as well hope for the best, right?

"Will, where are we meeting your dad?" Nico asked, waving to Annabeth when they passed the training area. Will just smiled, grabbing Nico's hand to pull him along faster. They finally stopped infront of the stables, Will already mounting on a chestnut Pegasus. Nico took a step back, holding his hands up in protest.

"Hello?! Son of Hades here! Zeus, lord of sky, no like-y other Big Three kids! Me struck by really painful bolt-y!" Nico cried. Will's face got that 'oh yeah!' look and he hopped off, telling the flying horse he was sorry. The pegasus neighed in response and strutted back into his stall, eating some oats a nymph had just given him.

Will turned to Nico and furrowed his eyebrows, asking, "But taking a car would take to long. We are meeting for lunch in California....Dad wanted to get a tan I guess." Nico smiled and grabbed Will's wrists, pulling him backwards to a shadow nearby.

"Hold on."

~SHADOOOOW TRAVELLLLL~
(IMAGINE DOCTOR WHO TARDIS TRAVEL NOISES.)

"Ugh... My stomach...thanks for the warning." Will groaned, glaring teasingly over at Nico. Nico rolled his eyes, smiling lightly. The shadow traveling didn't affect Will anymore, and they both knew it, but Will liked giving Nico a hard time anyway.

"So, is this the place we are supposed to meet?" Nico asked, looking around at where they ended up. Los Angeles, or so guessed by the Hollywood sign and traffic.

"Yup! Down to that beach over there, I think...let's go!" Will pointed to a small beach ahead of them that was remotely empty. Nico walked alongside Will, and they both took their shoes off to play in the sand.

"Hm. I wonder where my dad-"

"WILL! WHATCHA-FACE SON OF HADES! You made it!"

Will and Nico looked up and saw a smiling, young dude waving energetically at them a few feet away. The handsome guy was wearing an old shirt and faded jean shorts...obviously Apollo style. As the couple got closer to the sun god, Nico realized the physical looks Will and Apollo shared. The silky blonde hair, bright blue eyes...but Nico knew Apollo was a little different than his beloved Will.

"I'm Nico...Will's boyfriend.." Nico said slowly, as if he was speaking to a child. How could Apollo forget his name it's been-

"UH-HUH! I know! And my son," the god turned to Will, "you made your dad so proud."

Will looked up happily, asking incredulously, "Really? But how-"

"MY SON WAS THE ONE TO CAPTURE THE HEART OF THE DEATH GEM NICO. YES, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LOVE STORY. My son is just so amazing and almost as handsome as me so MUAHAHA. None of the other demigods stood a chance! IN YOUR FACE POSEIDON AND ZEUS." Apollo shouted, fist pumping the air. Nico looked over at Will and burst out laughing, amused by the 'the-fuck-dad?' expression on his face.

"Anyway, I'm sorry to skip out on lunch, but there is this really cool music festival going on that is featuring 5 Seconds of Summer!! I CANNOT MISS IT." Apollo apologized earnestly, snapping his fingers. A second later and he was in a 5SOS tank and skinny jeans. Will face-palmed. Nico raised an eyebrow.

Apollo waved, starting to walk away when he suddenly halted, turning back to look them straight in the eye.

"And boys," he said sternly, surprising them both, "don't. Forget. To. Use. Protection!!!" He yelled the last part loudly before sprinting off again.

Will and Nico stared at the retreating figure. Will was a little embarrassed but Nico was about to burst out laughing. Sighing, Will noticed a black box buried in the sand. He grabbed it and read the little note taped on the outside.

Just a little present that you might like. Aphrodite suggested them.

Will hesitantly opened the box, gasping at what was inside, and then shutting it quickly with a hot pink face. Nico looked over, confused, but before he could ask anything, Will sprinted after his dad, screaming, "YOU PERVERT. WHAT KIND OF PRESENT IS THIS?!"
