[ A Q U E S T I O N ]

Short chapter today, lovelies, I apologize in advance-

T-T

~-----------------~

Draco quickly scurried back towards the tower. Harry, the boy he had met earlier, seemed quite cute and hot at the same time. He wasn't sure how that was possible, if he was honest. He pushed the door open and closed it. Passing by Nico's room, he saw the door was ajar.

He peeked in and saw Leo holding Nico in his lap, his arms around the smaller male's skinny frame. Nico was sobbing silently into Leo's shoulder, gripping tightly on the fabric.

Leo caught sight of Draco.

'Meet me in my room. I'd like to discuss something.' He signed to Leo.

Leo nodded and Draco trudged up the stairs and into his room, shutting the door and flopping onto the bed.

He buried his face into the pillow, feeling his face turn red from embarrassment. What was he thinking?! To be so close to Harry's face almost boosted his need and want to feel his lips on Draco's. Draco groaned loudly and began screaming like a highschool girl with a crush into the pillow.

He had the most goofiest smile on his face and Draco's mind couldn't seem to wander away from Harry.

Draco quickly got up and got changed before he heard the door knock and open to reveal Leo poking his head in, a smirk on his face and his hand covering his eyes.

"You decent?" Leo asked.

Draco scoffed and rolled his eyes, chucking a shoe towards Leo, "Shut the hell up."

"Okay, ouch." Leo chuckled.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" Leo asked.

"Well, for starters, I actually wanted to ask if you would stay for the school term?" Draco said.

Leo hummed in thought, "Any special occasion?"

Draco sighed, "Leo, you know you're the only person who can calm Nico down. I'm not so sure we'll be able to calm him down during his nightly terrors.

"Oh, and I'm pretty sure Hazel won't allow Nico to hug a lit torch." Draco added, making Leo snort and laugh under his breath.

"Alright, I'll stay. But just for my Baby Bat. Also, this place is fucking lit! I could stay for the whole term." Leo grinned.

"Thanks, Leo." Draco flashed him a smile and fist-bumped Leo on his way out.

Leo waved Draco a goodnight before closing the door and bounding down the stairs. Draco chuckled. He no doubt was gonna get changed and hop into bed to cuddle with Nico.

And Draco continued to wonder if him feeling his heart flutter around the scarred boy meant anything at all.

(Warning: This contains fluff and if you don't ship Leico / Leo x Nico, then you can wait for the next chapter. Oh, and we don't ship-shame on this book)

It was true that Nico had been getting nightmares for the past few years. Up until now, the only person who's ever consoled Nico was Leo. It just became a sixth sense to him. Like, he could sense when Nico's having a nightmare and he'll bound towards Nico.

That was the first time Leo ever got feelings for Nico.

The first time they cuddled because of the nightmares was when Leo was working late at night and nearly everyone was asleep. Then he heard Nico softly whimpering in Leo's door. Although it was weird that Leo could hear Nico, even though he was down the corridor WITH the door closed, he still ran into Percy's room and the moment he sat down on the bed, Nico just jumped and latched himself onto him, eyes shut tight and small whimpers emitting from him.

He wasn't complaining though. He was glad that Leo was there on that fateful night.

"Nico~!" Leo sang in a low and whispering tone.

Opening the door, he found Nico already in bed. Instead of sleeping shirtless like he usually does, Leo could see that Nico had slipped out of his pants and shirt to wear a really big shirt that belonged to Leo. From a distance, you could practically see Nico cuddling into the shirt as if it was a blanket.

Leo tip-toed over to the smaller male and poked his shoulder, whispering Nico over and over under his breath.

"Ngh..." Nico mumbled, smacking Leo's hand away softly before turning to face Leo.

"Hey, sunshine." Leo cocked his head, smiling playfully.

Nico smiled back softly before yawning. He really was tired.

"Cuddle..." Nico said quietly, his eyes drooping up and down.

Leo chuckled, "Alright. But scooch over, Nico, I gotta squeeze in."

Nico shifted further back into the bed, allowing Leo to slip in, wearing his red T-shirt and comfy black pyjama pants. As soon as Leo laid down, Nico rolled back over and laid limply on top of Leo, nuzzling into his chest as he yawned and quickly fell back asleep.

Leo grinned softly and kissed his forehead.

"'Night, mi amor."
