Gabriel  Zimmerman
Gabriel Zimmerman asked Rick Riordan:

What is Will's sexuality? I mean,obviously he likes boys because he's dating Nico,but is he also gay,or is he bi or queer? P.S You're one of my favorite authors,Uncle Rick.

Rick Riordan Normally, I would say that you have to read the books and decide for yourself based on the evidence. Canon, by definition, is what is in the text, not what I or anyone else might say about it afterwards. Some characters like to come right out and tell you how they identify. Many do not, or maybe they are not entirely sure themselves. (Just like in real life.) However, Will answers this question definitively in Sun and the Star. Mark Oshiro, my co-author, actually decided this, and once they did, I thought, "Oh, okay, makes total sense." But you'll have to wait for the book to see!
