To Love a Boy

Epilouge

Jason Grace POV

The gang had been visiting for winter break and it was amazing. Jason could tell they all were happy to be having summer weather again even if it was only for two weeks.

Jason and Leo didn't know how to tell their friend the news since they were both still uncomfortable with their identities but sneaking kisses by the lake or holding hands under the blankets during movie nights was getting old. They discussed how to tell their friends but could never decide on a concrete idea.

Jason noticed how chummy Will and Nico had gotten since they had been adopted into their friendship. It made him feel warm on the inside. Nico deserved someone who would treat him as well as Will greets his friends. Will was a good guy.

One late night with the gang all piled into Jason's cabin. The candle light and the soft radio music could was easy to get them into a tired mood. They were getting bored. Bored until Annabeth pulled out a card game from her back pack. Truth or Drink.

"We can't play a drinking game!" Piper lightly shoved Annabeth's arm.

"We'll just make it so you pull a card then if you don't want to answer then we'll make a dare for you to do!" Annabeth decided.

The group all did nods and "Yeahs" so that's what they all did. They formed a circle on the ground while Annabeth explained the rules. It seemed simple enough. Go around in a circle drawing cards and answering them.

"Warning the questions are a bit out of pocket," Annabeth made clear.

"This is like exactly what Jason and I did last week except we made the questions up and there was a loser," Leo noted.

"Who lost?" Percy questioned.

Leo blushed and looked over at Jason. "We kind of stopped playing half way through."

"Well let's start this game!" Jason said, picking up a card. "How many people in the room have you kissed? Oh gods."

Jason sighed an shook his head, "Two."

"What?" at least three of them questioned in unison.

"Who?" asked Frank.

"Ah ah ah. The card does not ask me to disclose who," Jason smirked.

"I bet it's me," Percy announced. "Jason and I got the best bromance in town."

"Percy," Annabeth chuckled and shook her head.

"My turn then," Will said while drawing a card. "Who are you closest to in this room? Ummm... probably Nico. We've been chatting a lot lately. Right?"

He turned to Nico but he noticed that the boy had fallen asleep on his shoulder. Will grabbed the blanket that was around his legs and wrapped it around Nico's body.

"Guess Ghost King's already asleep," Will smiled softly.

The group other than Nico who continued resting went around the circle around three times and causing them to answer a bunch of stupid questions. Eventually it was Leo's turn again.

"How many people have you kissed?" Leo sighed. "At least it's not how many people in the room." He shoved at Jason's shoulder. "One."

"Only one?" Piper was shocked.

"Yeah," Leo smiled. "I had to make sure the first one was worth it."

"Aw you big sap," Piper shoved Leos arm as she was on his other side. "But who was it? Is it someone from camp?"

"A magician never reveals his secrets," Leo laughed.

"Oh my gods, are you dating? Leo tell me please," Piper grabbed onto Leo's arm and pleaded.

"Soon Pipes," Leo winked.

"You so are!" Piper squealed. "Leo this is huge!"

"Well my turns over it's time for Jason to go," Leo put his hands up in surrender.

"Have you ever done drugs. If so tell the story?" Jason read aloud.

"We all know the answer to that," Frank laughed.

His arm was wrapped around Hazel and she was giggling into his side. The others also joined laughing.

"Oh so you all know Leo and I smoked weed together?" Jason raised his eyebrow.

They all went quiet.

"What are we laughing about?" Nico's sleepy voice broke the silence.

The small boy jumped when he realized he was lying against Will Solace. He moved to sit at least a foot from Will ducking his head down but Jason could see his blush. It was cute how flustered he was.

"Leo and I smoked weed," Jason admitted.

"Ah, makes sense," Nico nodded.

"The card says tell the story so please do tell," as Percy prodded.

Jason looked over at Leo which caused him to give him a nod of approval. "Well one of my friends gave me two joints so Leo and I decided to smoke one together. We played a question game and were all answering questions we probably wouldn't of if we were sober."

"Like...?" Piper enabled.

"We gotta get back to the game! Nico hasn't even had a turn yet!" Jason defended.

"Fuck the game, tell us more!" Percy begged.

Jason looked over at Leo again and raised his eyebrow, an unspoken question was asked. Leo nodded encouragingly for Jason to continue.

"Oh gods," Jason shook his head then looked over at Leo to speak.

Coming out was hard.

Leo got the message. "So you know one thing led to another and we're teenage boys so the topic got to dating so we both admitted who we liked to each other. And who we liked was each other. We're dating."

Leo looked nervously to Jason who grabbed hold of Leo's hand. Jason eyes travelled to everyone in the group. A part of the weight had been lifted off his chest. He didn't know why he was so nervous obviously none if the group would be rude.

"Aw that's great!" Piper climbed over and hugged the two of them. She planted a small kiss on each of their cheeks than returned to where she sat. "I'm so happy for you guys!"

The rest of the weight came off of Jason's chest. His friends still loved him. Of course they did.

"It's getting late. Maybe we should all get back to our cabins," Percy suggested.

"Right," Will smiled. "See you guys in the morning."

All of the group had filed out of the Zeus cabin except Nico. He slowly made his way to Jason and stood awkwardly in front of the blond.

"Thank you," he whispered. "You're right about people not wanting to feel alone. I feel less alone with knowing you and Leo are like me."

"And Will," Jason added.

"What?" Nico looked up at Jason.

"Yeah he said everyone basically knows," Jason explained.

"Ah. Cool, I guess." Nico turned to leave but Jason could see the blush on his face.

It was sweet. Everything in that moment felt perfect.
