A.N: Soooooo!~ Completely forgot the timeline this thing is/was on, so from now on it's pretty much just around whatever day I update. So, have a Christmas/Hanukkah/Quanza update!!
Also, I finally came up with a final final ending, while I was listening to "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" by Meghan Trainor, so... All I need now is a plot! Whoop! Whoop!
Will's P.O.V
"Nico! Ya gotta come with me... I'll cry if you don't." I try for the millionth time.
"Gods, Will... I already told you that first of all: I can't sing. And, second of all: I'm pretty sure Christians would stone us to death, especially if they heard us singing Christmas carols. We are the literal opposite of their beliefs! In two ways. Plus, do you really think it's the best idea to walk around New York City at dusk singing songs that might offend somebody's religion?"
I complain, "But the entire Apollo cabin is going! And Percy, Annabeth, Piper, Jason, Leo, and Calypso... Frank, Hazel and Reyna are even coming up here from their own caroling place, just for us!"
"Well, that's their fault."
"Please, Nico. I can't leave you alone on Christmas eve... And I'm required to go with the Apollo cabin, since I'm the head counselor..." I plead desperately. I'd try a pity face... But that doesn't really work on a blind person...
"Ugh... Fine." He agrees. "But I don't have a winter coat..."
"You can wear mine." I offer.
"But don't you only have one?"
"Yeah. I never use it anyway... I'm wearing my favorite Christmas T-Shirt to go out!" It has reindeer and everything.
"You'll freeze out there in the cold weather!" He worries.
"Cold weather? What's that?" I'm not in denial... I just... Used to live in Florida, where the mere idea if snow gave you the chills in the year-round warm weather.
"Fine. Whatever... If you're really not using it anyway."
"YAY!"
~~~~~~~~~~
"I can't believe you convinced me to do this... I'm freezing out here, winter coat and all." Nico complains, teeth chattering between words.
"What do you mean? It feels great out here!" I state as a snowflake lands on my bare arm. "Soooooooo nice..."
We were currently stopped at a small park in the city, to McDonald's (Nico's idea) and let our voices rest. Instead, The Seven demigods and the rest of the Apollo cabin were having a giant snowball fight, while Calypso was attempting to avoid every snowflake that fell from the sky. I guess it's been a while since she's seem snow; being trapped on a tropical island for gods know how long.
Nico and I, on the other hand, are cuddled up on a bench together, him with his Happy Meal, and me with my expensive fast food salad. "You have a wonderful singing voice, Nico..."
He shakes his head, "Nah... I'm a soprano... Which sucks for a guy, cause I feel like I sound like a girl..."
"A girl who can sing, nonetheless. Besides, at least you don't sound like a cat giving birth while being brushed with a cactus, like I do." I say, earning a laugh from him.
He rests his head on my shoulder. "True..." After a moment of silence, Nico speaks up again. "Tell me, Will... Does the city look nice this year?"
"It's lovely... The city's lit up in all different colors, and there's a giant tree that can be seen from a long way away... The buildings and rooftops are powdered with snow... And there's a few feet piled up on the ground. I know you'd love the sky tonight, it's slightly cloud covered, but thin enough that you can still see the yellow moon." I had found that describing sights to him on detail was one of the best ways to cheer him up.
"Heh..." He scoops up a handful of powdered snow, then proceeds to dump it on top of my head.
"Wow. Teach me to loan you my coat... Jerk." I laugh, shaking the snow out of my hair.
"Yeah, I'm not sure if you'll ever learn to stop being nice to me, idiota." He kisses my cheek.
"You're right about that." I gently press my lips to his, in a loving manner.
We're able to kiss for about five seconds before the rest of my cabin, the Seven, Reyna, and even Calypso interrupt. "Oooooh!~"
"Looks like the adults are doing pervy stuff." Percy laughs. "Let's just leave them to that..."
A.N: I realize that was more like a one-shot, but whatever.
Merry Chris- Holiday season!!~
