"I love you!"
"Don't..."

Will knocked on Nico's door, a flower bouquet in hand and a bright smile across his face.
Nico opened up, rubbing his eye and fixing his hair, clearly woken up from a nap. When he sees Will, his heart skips a beat, and he actually smiles (I know, right?). Then, his eyes flicker down to the flowers.
Nico points his chin towards them, "What are those for?"
"For you," Will replied cheerfully. Awkwardly, he pushes them forward, urging for Nico to take them.
Nico takes them from Will, looking down at the green stems and purple and red petals.
"What for?" Nico asked.
Will took a deep breath, earning Nico's eye contact.
"I..." Will started. "I want to ask you out."
Nico lifted an eyebrow, but Will continued. "Nico, I love you. I have, for a long time now. Will you go on a date with me?"
Nico felt his heart skip to his throat. He didn't know what to say. He wanted to cry yes! But he hesitated, anxious thoughts circling around in his brain like MMA fighters.
Nico felt his face fall slowly, and his eyes fell back down to the flowers. His self-confidence plummeted. Everyone Nico has loved... has died. He's a son of Hades. He's a curse. It wouldn't be a good idea for Will to be with him.
With a sour face and eyes that began to tear up, Nico shook his head, unable to make eye contact.
He went to close the door, but Will put a hand in front to block him, "Nico... I'm sorry. We can still be friends. Are you okay?"
Nico felt a tear roll down his face, "You should go."
With that, Nico shut the door, taking the flowers with him.
