Death is beautiful

Idea: Nico thinks death is beautiful.

Nico had heard people say that death was ugly. That it was brutal and cruel.

Nico didn't think so, not when he looked at the embodiment of death, namely Anubis. When he looked at Anubis, he found death to be vary beautiful. Sure, Thanatos was also very beautiful, however, he was also very frightening. Anubis was not frightening, at least Nico didn't think so. He'd never felt fear when he was near the god, only solace in his company.

Something he'd noticed early was that Anubis often felt lonely. That was understandable, considering he'd been alive for 5000+ years without having his real family around. Seth wasn't really much for the fatherly role. Nico knew how that was, he only had Hades, and he would never really slip into the demigod's life like his deceased mother and Bianca. So when he noticed the loneliness in the god, he'd decided to stay with Anubis, at first as a friend, later as a lover. He loved Anubis deeply, and he knew that he'd probably never stop feeling that way.

"What're you thinking about?" the sleepy voice of Anubis spoke. Nico glanced down at him from his seated position on the bed, his back leaning on a pillow propped up against the headboard.

"Just thinking about how beautiful you are." Nico relished the blush dusting the god's cheeks before the face disappeared into the blanked covering his thighs, Anubis having buried there, his arms sliding around Nico's middle.

"It's way too early to be talking like that, Nico."

Nico smirked, "It's only two AM."

"You should be sleeping if that's the case," Anubis said matter-of-factly.

"I was too busy admiring your sleeping face." The head in his lap turned slightly, the god's dark eyes looking at him from beneath black bangs. Nico's eyes followed Anubis movement as the other sat up.

"I think you're the beautiful one, Nico," Anubis said, leaning in to press a sweet kiss to Nico's lips. The son of Hades sighed and brought a hand up to cup the god's cheek, moving his lips in sync with Anubis'. Fingers twined into his hair and a hand found his waist to pull him forward into Anubis' lap. It was slightly chilly in just boxers but Nico felt warm quickly as he was enveloped by the other's warm arms, his bare chest pressing against the god's.

Fingers trailed patterns into Nico's back, leaving behind warm lines. The demigod carded his fingers through Anubis' thick hair, feeling the strands glide between the digits. The god's lips left kisses along his jaw and down his neck, halting as they reached his collarbone, where they sucked a dark mark into his skin.

"Don't leave too many, I'm visiting dad in a few days, and I don't want him to get a bad impression of my unknown boyfriend," Nico breathed out.

The god's movements faltered, "When am I going to meet him?"

"I dunno. I think dad both wants and doesn't want to meet you. He's very suspicious, y'know. I haven't even told him that you're a god."

Anubis winced, "I think I'll feel relieved if I meet him, whether he likes me or not. Not having met him worries me."

Nico smiled, stroking the other's cheek with his thumb, "You'll meet him one day." With that he closed the distance between them again, gently kissing his lover. He felt Anubis smile and I made him smile as well, making their kissing a bit awkward.

Nico started chuckling and was hushed by the god beneath him.

"I can't kiss you back properly if you smile so much."

"Yet you're also smiling," Nico teased, kissing Anubis' chin.

The god huffed out a laugh, "I guess I am."

Nico laughed and kissed his way down the other's neck, feeling Anubis' arms tighten around him as he went. He mouthed along the left clavicle, occasionally nipping. He left a few bruises just because he could and cherished the soft moans it brought forth in his lover's throat.

Nico lifted his head and gazed at the god's flushed face and slightly glazed over eyes.

Yes, death was indeed beautiful.
