Together

Chapter 1

"Hmmmmmm." Nico said. He hummed in his sleep, rolling over. Since things with Will had started to get serious, the 15 year old boy had left behind the onesies of his past, and now slept with just a pair of boxers. Will was stirring next to him, with his hands around Nico's slim waist and pressed against him, spooning him.

"Yes?" Will asked.

Nico said, "What day is it today." As he got up.

"June 6th," Will said sleepily.

Nico sighed and got back to bed. The freshman was getting ready to go to school, until he realized today was his first day of summer. Chiron hadn't known about the two, so obviously Nico could stay with will. He had been hiding it from him for a year now.

Will sat up. The thick, white sheets were hot against his tan body in the Hades Cabin. "Nico, it's summer." He sat back down, smiling and grabbed Nico's hand.

Nico flipped over, looking at Will. He let out a small smile, and the lines on his checks blushed a bright red. He got very close to Will, who was a good half a foot taller than he was. He smelt his cologne, and it reminded him of champagne. He crept closer to him, and he moved his hands around his neck. Will, still smiling, wrapped his hands around the round of Nico's butt and held him there, pressing Nico's body against his own.

Nico let out a full smile. Even though life was typically better for him post-percy-Jackson, smiling wasn't something the son of Hades did. Something in his brain tickled when Will held him. As if shocks of electricity were constantly charging through his back.

"I've got a surprise for you."
