Save You As I Save My Life (Jasico)

Chapter 11: The Beauty in Nature

Nico woke up confused. He had three warm bodies near him, all of varying heights and body types. One had the distinct smell of burnt wood, one the smell of sea and salt, and one of rain.

Nico cuddled closer to the scent of burnt wood, for it was the warmest and seemingly the closest. He found himself with someone breathing on his face, which made him wiggle his nose and giggle.

"Nic, shh, we're trying to sleep." Leo murmurs, holding him tighter.

"Sorry. Perce is breathing on me." He whispers.

"Sorry." Percy whispers back, a smile lacing through is words.

Someone behind Nico whines and tugs him back. He recognizes Jason and turns, grinning.

"Did you forget about me?"

Nico shakes his head, and Jason grins.

"Good." He nuzzles Nico into his chest, scooting forward more so it is easier for all four of them to huddle for warmth.

"How's school been?" Percy whispers. Leo shushes him, batting at his nose, and then hugs him to apologize.

"Fine. Too many tests and homework in science though." Nico mutters. Jason hugs him close.

"Mm...." Jason nuzzles Nico's neck, and he shivers, gasping quietly. Nico grasps at Jason's head, biting his lip. Jason chuckles, and presses a little harder, mouthing over the spot. Nico gasps again when Jason kisses his neck. His gasps get louder when Jason's lips pressed more forcefully into that spot, and his lips part, eyes sliding closed. The other two remain oblivious for the time being, but Nico doesn't understand exactly what's happening. He likes it, and it makes him feel....vulnerable.

Jason lips brush over the front of his throat, and his eyes shoot open.

"J-Jason!"

Percy sits straight up and stares at Jason, who immediately pulls away. Nico blushes hard, and Jason does too. They stare at each other, until Jason tears away his gaze to stare at Percy.

"What the hell!?" Percy growls, staring at Jason, and then Nico. Leo is shivering, obviously trying to hold in his laughter.

"I didn't- I wasn't- We weren't going to- Percy, calm down-"

"What the hell were you doing to him!?" He growls, climbing across Leo to get to the blonde boy.

"Fuck, Percy, don't beat me up again, please, please, please!!" Jason begs, hiding behind a dazed Nico.

Percy lays in front of Jason, and grabs his ears. Jason winces, and Nico inhales sharply. Then he sits up and bolts out of the room. Percy and Jason both stare after him, and then get up and chase him. Nico bolts into the bathroom, slamming and locking the door.
