Not Dead - (Nico x Reader Imagines) {✄ EDITING ✍︎}

Chapter 79 | Need Help?

You silently strummed the strings of your guitar while sitting on the edge of your bed. You just returned from a lesson one of the Apollo kids offered you since he knew you had a guitar.

As you could tell, you just started learning. And one of the main reasons you wanted to play this wonderful instrument was because of a melody your mom would play to you for when you were a child.

You would not go further into that for it brought bad memories no demigod wants to remember again. You quietly looked down at the guitar and played some more. Until...

"Hey y/n!" Nico said in his usual bright behavior he had when he was around you. When he noticed you had a guitar on your lap he looked surprised, "I didn't knew you played the guitar!"

"No I don't, I just started" You replied "And need a lot of help." "Help? Well you need to show me the basics first before we can go further" He told you. "We?" You asked, puzzled "Your going to help me?"

"Of course" He exclaimed "That's why we're friends y/n. And also, I use to play the guitar. But unfortunately one day I accidentally left it outside and it got invested with worms and insects." He tells you, you laugh "your so stupid."

He chuckles, "Well moving on. Show me"

"Fine bossy pants" You mutter. You then played the scale, "Easy" you commented. "easy indeed." He replies. "So did she give you any easy music to work on since you know the scale very well?" He questions.

"Em" you thought "Yeah actually. He did." You tell him trying to find the paper. Nico looked very taken aback when you corrected him. He also felt a bit of jealousy, he tried to hide it though.

Once you turned around to face him he looked at you, patiently waiting. "It's called..." You mumble, awkwardly giving him the sheet of music. "Oh this!" He recalls. "It's simple. Lets play" he says looking at you with those beautiful chocolate brown orbs of his. "S-sure"

You then went back to the position you had when he first came in here. You two then began to practice a little together. Time passed by quickly but luckily you have learned more than half of the song. "No no no" he exclaimed. "It's this chord not the A" he complains. He's got enough, "here"

He then went behind you, you completely dumbfounded, did nothing but just look at to what he was doing. What he did do left shivers down your back. He placed his hand on yours and moved it to the right chord. "Strum" he commanded very near your ear, very near your neck also.

"N-Nico" you stutter still shocked. "What?" He asks innocently. You then stopped from finishing your sentence and just let him be. And honestly, you enjoyed his warmth.

So you two practiced together Nico still behind you. After a few minutes, you two decided to end your lesson there. "So want to practice tomorrow too?" He immediately asks.

"I think I have a lesson tom-" you began to say but he interrupted. "Please?" He begged in his cute voice he had. "fine I'll tell him to re-schedule" you replied. He smiles, he then caresses your cheek for a few seconds but stops.

"Anyways, I'll see you later, I guess" he tells you as he heads out the door. "I'll see you too..." You mumble shocked at the behavior he pulled off today. Nico then closes the door and raises his fist in the air and back as in success. "Yes!"

Little. Jealous. Nico
