Waiting (a pernico fic)

Chapter 9

Will

The waiting was the worst part. He knew he'd been successful, but what if Nico didn't like him the way he did. He hadn't thought that way, mostly because he didn't want to.
The next morning, he couldn't wait to get up and see to Nico. When he knocked at Nico's door, he'd expected Nico to be inconsolable, but he looked like he hadn't slept so good in ages. "Hey," Nico greeted Will with a smile, which threw him off. "Hey... Are you up to me checking on your wounds?" That flustered him slightly. "I'll be down to the infirmary in a minute."
"I can check them here, if you're up to it." Nico shook his head. Will set his lips. "Percy here?" Nico nodded, blushing. Quietly, Will fumed but smiled brightly at Nico. "Then I'll see you at the Infirmary in five, okay?" Nico nodded and closed the door. Gritting his teeth, Will walked as calmly as he could to the rear of the Apollo cabin and punched a tree. Luckily, no dryad was inside, so he punched again, getting out all of his aggression. He couldn't check up on Nico with all this rage. After he had spent his anger, he sank to his knees and scrubbed the roots of his hair. Why hadn't it worked? He'd been so certain...Nico had been to the point of vaporizing Percy, and they wind up having.... Gods damn Percy! Him and his perfect relationship with the one person he wanted. Why couldn't he catch a motherfucking break??

Percy

Nico closed the door and Percy eyed him curiously. He was blushing hard and he set his head against the door. "What's up, mi angelo?" Nico turned his head, still against the door, to look at Percy. "That's twice Will has come over here and you've been in your underwear." Percy sat up. "I am not! I've got pants on!" He pulled the blanket back to show he was wearing loose black lounge pants. Nico huffed. "The principle still applies. You're half naked." That one, Percy couldn't dispute, since he was shirtless. "So?" Percy shrugged. "You're my boyfriend and you have your own cabin. What does he expect?" Nico flushed harder and his gaze went to the floor. Percy smiled and stood, crossed the floor to Nico and hugged him from behind. "Unlike you, I do have inhibitions," Nico quipped, turning in Percy's grip. That made Percy grin. His little angel was shy. Well, he already knew that, but it was still cute. "You have nothing to be ashamed of, mi angelo. I swear to you." Nico nodded after a moment and Percy kissed him gently. "Now, you have to get ready for your check up. Okay?" Nico pouted and that made Percy smile. "Okay."

AN: I'm sorry for the long wait and the fact that this is so short but I figured you guys would want an update. I have been so busy with school and stuff, I rarely work on this and I apologize.
