– The battlefield of the Flag Hunt was silent, except for the footsteps of the demigods returning to camp. The flags had already been captured, and the game was over. Will Solace was hurrying, anxious to find you, his boyfriend, son of Aphrodite. He knew that the fierce competition of the Flag Hunt always brought emotions to the surface, but he hadn't expected the scene he found when he arrived at the clearing.
A son of Ares, with a furious expression on his face, was yelling at you. His voice echoed, angry. – "You just dodged, you didn't do anything! We lost because of you! You have to fight for real, we're on the same team!" –
You stood firm, unfazed. The subtle, charming glint of the sons of Aphrodite was present, but your eyes showed more irritation than charm.
Will quickly approached, and before the son of Ares could continue yelling, he intervened. – "Hey, what's going on here?" – Will’s voice was calm but firm. He placed a hand on the Ares boy’s shoulder, as if to remind him that arguing would lead nowhere.
– “He didn’t do anything the whole game! We’re on the same team, and he just stood there, like he was watching!” – The Ares boy grumbled, pushing Will’s hand away with a sharp shove.
Will stepped forward, positioning himself between you and the boy. His blue eyes were gleaming, serious. – “Look, the Flag Hunt isn’t all about brute force. He was helping in other ways, even if you didn’t realize it.” – He looked at you, the affection in his eyes evident, as if he knew you were more concerned with strategy and emotional support than getting into a physical fight.
The Ares boy huffed, but shrugged, acknowledging that fighting with Will wouldn’t solve anything. – “Just don’t make us lose next time." – he muttered before walking away.
When you were alone, Will turned to you, his gaze softening immediately. He smiled, and his hand touched yours comfortingly. – "Are you okay?" –
