A/N: I learned how to do blurbs and apparently that's all I do now, I can't stop -Danny

Request: Can you do something with Nico and his s/o (she/they) scare very easily and hate scary movies and stuff. But they're trying to get over that fear for him? Thanks guys!
"You know," Nico said softly as he watched you jumped for the third time in a row, "you really don't have to do this..."
"I know," You shivered, carefully peering through your fingers. "But you love horror movies, I can do this."
"Me loving them doesn't mean you're obligued to love them as well," Nico shrugged. "I mean, you like spring and I loath it so..."
"Oh, you don't loath it," You snorted. "You just hate it's hot and you can't wear all black."
"It's an insult really," He smirked, trying to distract you from what was happening on the screen. "Black doesn't get along with the sun."
"Apollo might disagree..."
"No, for once I think he'd be the first to agree with me."
"This is not the point!" You laughed, snuggling closer to him. "I'm a brave person, I can watch this movie!"
"Y/N..."
"I swear it on the Styx."
Nico let out a quiet groan. Now he couldn't do anything to protect you.
"Fine, we'll watch it. This is your own fault though, I tried to save you the trauma."
"I'm a demigod, Nico. We swim on trauma."
Ten minutes into the first scary scene you were already hating yourself for making the stupid oath. You had to sit and watch the whole thing. That was your plan since the start but now it was an obligation and that was taking all the fun away.
Nico kept you close as a way to make sure you wouldn't feel so helpless, it was true that he loved horror movies, but he also loved you, so watching you quietly suffer because you were trying to make him happy was sort of ruining things for the both of you.
He would kiss the top of your head from time to time just to remind you he was right next to you. It was the cutest scene, you two snuggled up on the couch, you practically holding onto his arm like your life depended on it, and him, absently grazing your knuckles and wishing for the movie to go faster so you could be over with this.
And then, before you two even knew it, it was over. Even more shocking, you were completely okay and with no new traumas.
"That's it?" You sat up straighter on the couch.
"Yes," He looked at you worryingly. "How are you feeling?"
"Honestly? Not bad," You grinned. "Look at me!"
"I am looking at you," Only then Nico smiled back. "You're tougher than expected."
"You're one to talk," You scoffed, rolling your eyes.
"Don't talk to me like that," He teased. "I'm merely stating facts."
"Oh, shut up," You laughed. "What's next?"
"What?"
"Yeah, what movie are we going to watch now?"
Nico stared at you with polite disbelief. "You want to keep going?"
"Obviously, I just told you, I'm fine."
"I don't want you to have nightmares because of me, Y/N."
"I won't, I promise," You pouted, leaning closer to his face. "And if I do I'll just go to your cabin and I'll spend the night there."
"That's not allowed."
"Are you going to snitch on me?"
Nico's smiled widened into a smirk. "Who am I to refuse?"
