Nico quietly opened the door to the Hades cabin and made his way inside, tired after another long day at Camp Half-Blood. The dark cabin was peaceful, lit only by a small lamp on Will's bedside table. Nico smiled at the sight of his boyfriend fast asleep and curled up under the blankets.
Trying not to wake Will, Nico climbed into bed and cuddled up next to him. Will stirred and opened his eyes sleepily. "Nico?" he mumbled.
"Hey," Nico whispered. "Go back to sleep, I'm home now."
Will wrapped his arms around Nico and pulled him close. "Missed you," he said, already drifting off again.
Nico pressed a kiss to Will's cheek. "I missed you too."
Will nestled his head in the crook of Nico's neck and sighed contentedly. Nico closed his eyes, enjoying the warmth and comfort of having Will in his arms. He gently played with Will's soft blond curls as Will's breathing deepened in sleep.
After a while, Will began placing lazy kisses along Nico's neck. Nico tilted his head to give Will more access and Will took the hint, kissing and nibbling the sensitive skin. Nico sighed happily, pleasure coursing through him.
Will made his way up Nico's neck to his lips and kissed him sweetly. Nico kissed him back lovingly, savoring the taste of Will's lips in the darkness. Their kisses grew more passionate yet remained gentle and unhurried.
They made out slowly in the comforting dark of the cabin, wrapped in warmth and love. The outside world seemed far away as they expressed their affection through tender touches and lingering kisses. Nothing else mattered in that moment except being close to each other.
Will gazed into Nico's eyes and even in the dim light, Nico could see the love there. "You're beautiful," Will murmured.
Nico smiled and hugged Will tightly. "Only because of you."
Will hugged him close and pressed a kiss to his forehead. "I love you," he whispered.
"I love you too," Nico replied.
They fell asleep in each other's arms, content and at peace, complete in that moment of quiet intimacy shared together in the middle of the night.
Percy very much complain in the morning .
