(SOC) : stone of choice

- Third Person's POV -

You and Nico have been dating for four years now. It was high time Nico proposed to you and he was more than ready to do so.

He spent weeks planning how the proposal would be and months choosing which ring to get you.

He eventually settled on a beautiful (SOC) that he knew would remind you of the two of you. He asked Hades and Hephaestus to help him out and the ring came out looking absolutely gorgeous.

Finally, it came the time when Nico bought a fancy jacket and combed his hair (for once) to take you out on a date. You burst into giggles when Nico showed up at your cabin door, looking like such a gentleman.

"Nico," you chuckled, leaning on the doorframe, "What gives?"

Your beloved boyfriend excitedly handed you a bouquet of 30 roses (all those who understand flower language, iykyk). "Hm? Can't I spoil my queen if I want to?"

You happily took the bouquet of roses and held it close to your heart, "Thanks, Nico..."

You sighed and looked at Nico with a soft smile on your face, "Actually, I wanted to tell you something. It's really good news-"

"I do too," Nico said breathlessly, his hands shaking slightly as he took yours, "You could tell me all about it at the restaurant, love."

You rolled your eyes, "I swear, Neeks, if you propose to me right when I'm wearing sweatpants, you're dead."

Nico gulped, smiling at you awkwardly, "Um... it wouldn't hurt to dress up a bit, right?"

You raised your eyebrows in amusement and chuckled, "Give me a minute, I'll wear my favorite dress."

Nico held your hand tenderly as the two of you walked towards the park. Your bellies are full and your heart light, yet something weighs on your mind...

Nico noticed your expression and wrapped an arm around your shoulders, "Y/N? What's wrong?"

You smiled weakly as the two of you sat at your favorite bench, under the cherry tree where the two of you first met. "I... I got accepted to my dream university in London."

Nico's eyes lit up, "That's great! Why do you look so upset?"

Looking down at your hands, you gently leaned onto Nico's shoulder and hugged his arm to your chest, "Hermes gave me a letter that was supposed to be for you when you were out on a quest... you got accepted to your dream college too, my love."

Nico's mouth opened slightly. He had prayed every day for this chance to come, but since the two of you applied to different universities...

"We won't be able to see each other," Nico whispered sadly as he took you in his arms.

You nodded hesitantly, looking at him with such longingly as if you already missed him, "Are you alright with doing long-distance? I-I still want to be with you, but if you don't want to..."

Nico captured you in a swift, sweet kiss. He attached his lips onto yours as he pulled you closer, "I want you too... no, I need you, mia cara..."

You sniffled slightly, breaking the kiss and wrapping Nico into a tight bear hug, "I love you, my ghost king..."

Nico smiled softly, standing up on the bench and getting down on one knee, "About that..."

You gasped as tears sprung to your eyes, Nico held up a box that had the most beautiful ring you've ever seen.

Nico was blinking his eyes rapidly, trying to stop himself from tearing up from how much his heart ached with love for you, "Y/N L/N... will you marry me?"

"Yes!" You and Nico laughed for joy and wrapped each other into a tight hug, pulling one another into a loving kiss.

~ time skip ~

"I'm going to miss you so much..." Nico whispered as he held you close.

The two of you were at the airport, standing in the boarding hall as Nico gave you his last goodbye.

Nico had gifted you with a bag of sweets, a plushie, and even a brand-new telescope for you to look at the stars together during your video calls.

He was trying his best not to cry and break down in front of you, but a few droplets couldn't help but escape his eyes.

You cupped his face in your hands and pressed your forehead against his, "And I'll miss you more..."

Nico let out a raspy, shaky breath as he planted soft kisses into your hair, inhaling your scent and rubbing your back, "I love you so, so much mia cara..."

You sniffled softly and hugged Nico tight, "I love you too."

As you boarded the plane, you watched as Nico waved goodbye while trying to hold back tears. He mouthed the words, "Call me."

You blew him a kiss and smiled, the plane finally taking off.

A/N - oh well, that's that.

I'm sure you and Nico will have fun forgetting all about each other :D

... just kidding.

~ epilogue ~

"Nico!" you squealed as you ditched your luggage and ran towards your fiancé.

"Y/N!" Nico took a few steps forward, only to be slammed onto a pillar in the airport as you pushed yourself into his arms, "Oh love... you're finally here."

You smiled happily as you peppered kisses all over Nico's cheeks, "I. Missed. You. So. Freaking. Much-"

Nico suddenly grabbed your face in his hands, his wedding ring pressing lightly onto your jaw as he kissed you longingly, "Welcome home, Y/N."

A big wedding was held about a month later, and the two of you lived happily ever after.

The end.

A/N - don't worry, I'm not ending this oneshot book anytime soon. I just thought it was a cute idea and went along with it.

Hope you have a great day everyone, be glad I didn't write this one shot to be all sad and sappy >:)

Bye!!
