Always You - Nico di Angelo x Reader (Oneshots)

Special - Part 1

A/N - trying to upload a one shot every week lol

I had written this oneshot spontaneously without any plan whatsoever, eventually deciding to just follow along with what the plot would lead me to.

Note: Drama is about to get down.

Anyway, enjoy !

- Third Person's POV -

You and Nico have been childhood friends since day one and was best friends since forever. Anything that you do, if possible, you did together.

There wasn't a moment in your lifetime where you remember doing something without Nico di Angelo. He has been your other half, your partner in crime, and your bestest friend in the whole world.

It would be an understatement, to say the least, if I were to describe Nico's delightment when he found out the two of you would be in the same class during your last year of highschool.

The two of you spent the rest of the year enjoying each other's company, knowing that you might separate and leave to different paths to pursue for college.

Time flew by so fast, that you wondered if Kronos tampered with the clock to spite your happiness out of your life. Nevertheless, the long-awaited end of year party had arrived.

Once the announcement poster had been stuck onto the bulletin wall, Nico's heart fluttered slightly. He knew exactly who to ask.

Even after years and years of being by your side, Nico's little crush for you never did fade away, but grew and blossomed into beautiful, young love.

You were his first, his dream of forever. Maybe this was his chance to finally begin chasing after his happy ending.

Nico was punched out of his fantasy when another one of his close friends, Peter Johnson, walked past by him.

Peter and Nico had an odd history together. Sort of like how he does with Thalia, since Peter was also sucked out of time and had lost many, many precious years of life. (A/N - should I drop oc lore??)

Peter smiled awkwardly at Nico, his hands fidgeting slightly as he gestured at the announcement poster.

"So," he started, quite intimidated by Nico's hard stare, "Are you finally going to tell me the special girl who stole your heart?"

Oh, right. Nico had never mentioned to Peter who his "secret love" was. However, he was rather disappointed and confused that Peter didn't get it right away. How daft could he possibly be?

"Not today, I'm afraid," Nico chuckled light-heartedly, officially breaking the tight tension, "You'll just have to see who am I taking as my date. If it is her, then I'll go. If it isn't... then I would rather stay home."

Peter let out a snort of laughter, playfully punching Nico lightly on the arm, "You goof. You can't miss the last party of your highschool years for a girl!"

"I don't know," Nico shrugged, "I would rather skip it all if I can't have her by your side."

Nico smirked, catching Peter's eye as he gulped nervously. He knew what Nico was going to ask.

"Any plans on asking Y/N?" Nico grinned, trying to hide how painful his heart was clenching inside of his chest, "Don't bother hiding it anymore. It's more obvious than how Jason's in love with his brick."

Peter smiled weakly as he rubbed the back of his neck, "I want to. But she's so..."

"Yeah," Nico tapped his chin thoughtfully, "Popular."

Y/N L/N had been the apple of one's eye. The majority of the school had been pining over her favor in the hopes of asking her out.

Obviously, Nico and Peter knew all too well that Y/N didn't have any interest in any of them. Those jocks, club members, and hopeless romantics had no chance with her. Ever.

While the two boys silently agreed that Y/N would rather go on a date with the well-known narcissistic Apollo, god of the sun, Nico knew better than any of them.

You see, Y/N has had a crush on Peter for a few months now. Perhaps Peter's endless gentle manners and sweet compliments had finally gotten into her head. And maybe even her heart.

Nico swallowed, knowing how he would end.

But it won't hurt to try, wouldn't it?

That weekend, Nico ran to the best flower shop in town, all the while picking up a few gifts along the way: a bracelet, your favorite chocolates, and even a plushie that you wanted for a while now.

He rushed to your dorm, knocking on the door with a thumping heart. He felt as if his chest was going to explode from excitement.

This was it. He was going to do it.

A/N - I'm so sorry to end it here. But I decided to make this a two-parter :)

Stay tuned for the next upload! Don't forget to bring those tissues...

Anyway! Thanks for reading, I really did enjoy writing this. Alot.
