I remember tears streaming down your face when I said I'll never let you go

Walking past the cabins, the black haired boy heard his boyfriend's voice through the yellow walls, singing a song and playing a guitar.

When all those shadows almost killed your light

His sweet voice rang through the son of Hades' ears as he walked up to the cabin door, pressing his ear to the door to hear better.

I remember you said don't leave me here alone
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight

A small smile adorned the black haired boy's face as he turned the door knob, opening the door to see the son of Apollo sitting on his bed, guitar in his lap.

Just close your eyes, the sun is going down

The blonde of the two looked up, smiling at his boyfriend standing at the door. He motioned for the brown eyed boy to come over with his head.

You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound

The black haired walked over and sat down beside his partner, who shifted and expertly hid a small velvet box in between his crossed legs.

Don't you dare look out your window, darling everything's on fire

The son of Hades joined in singing, much to the blue eyed boy's delight. He smiled and continued playing, singing as well.

The war outside our door keeps raging on

Hold onto this lullaby even when the music's gone, gone

Their voices intertwined into an angel-like melody, a mixture fit for royalty.

Just close your eyes, the sun is going down

The blonde boy moved closer to his boyfriend, placing down his guitar, letting their combined voices ring through the empty cabin.

You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now

Will reached into his lap, pulling out the velvet box and placing it on the bed in his open palm.

Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound

With his eyes closed, Nico felt around for Will's hand, only to be met with the feeling of velvet. He opened his eyes to see Will holding the box in his hand, a smile on his face. The younger boy started to tear up as Will opened the box to reveal a golden ring embellished with a black diamond.

No words were needed for Nico to nod his head, tears streaming down his face as the two lovers embraced.

Just close your eyes, you'll be alright
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound
