Narrator POV

"Don't try that with me. It's not going to work. Bianca used to cry on demand. We got out of a lot of trouble that way. Speaking of... where's my sister?"

Will looked down at the floor. Hearing Nico saying this now, Will would have felt just as bad as Percy had when Nico spoke those same 3 words to him. But he didn't. With the way Nico had just acted... he wasn't the same person, anymore. But... hadn't Nico risked his life to save Will?

"You... you really don't remember?"

"No...?" Nico said, confused.

"Why do you look like that? What, is the golden retriever still sad that I didn't fall for the sorry excuse of a human being's trick?"

Will ran out of the room, tears falling down his cheeks at impeccable speed. He ran into the cabin bathroom, and searched the room for anything, anything at all, that might do the trick. At last, he finally found a razor, and locked himself inside, still crying.

He... he couldn't love someone who didn't love him back. And... "The only person I'll ever truly love, is Niccolo Fauntleroy di Angelo." Will grinned. That was the first time Will had unintentionally called him by his full name, and he loved it.

Just as Will got up to go the Nico how he had accidentally used Nico's full name out loud, and how perfectly the words felt on his lips, he remembered why he had been thinking it in the first place.

Will bawled, and gripped the blade tighter, making his palms bleed.

"Ouch!" Will yelled, a little bit too loud.

Kayla, not hearing about Nico's amnesia, heard the shout, and asked through the locked door, "Hey, Will, you good?"

Will wanted to respond with, 'no, I'm actually attempting suicide right now!' But instead choked out, "Yeah... I'm fine... Nico and I just... had a fight."

"Oh. Wait... then why'd you scream ouch?"

"I..." Will didn't have an answer for that. Not until he thought of one, at least. "I meant the metropolis word or something... because... because Nico said something really, really harsh, and so it hurt my feelings. I was just thinking about it. That's all, now, would you leave me alone?"

Kayla almost lost it, but she kept her cool.

"Look, Will. I'm not going anywhere. You're not acting like yourself, and it's really strange, so I'm staying right here until you come out."

Will almost laughed. He came out only because Nico had, first... he pushed the thought away.

"O-ok..." Will said, unsteadily.

Will heard Kayla shout for Austin, but he didn't hear what she had said.

He took 5 deep breaths, took the razor in his grip again, and slid it harshly from his wrist up his fore-arm.

Will thought about all those nasty things Nico had told him, and started sobbing, not only from his words, but also from the cut's pain.

Will couldn't wait any longer, as he cut 3 more long vertical slashes up his forearm. Nico hadn't even been this reckless when I had caught him cutting. Right before we started dating... stupid boy. He really thought nobody loved him...

Finally will started bleeding out so much he fell straight forward, face first, to the ground, as his eyes rolled up in his head...
