Everything is Changing

That Night

(A/N: The picture above is basically my bedroom on the ship. Except no window. And the walls are black. Thank you for your time. Back to your scheduled story.)
          Maggie's Point of View
     After dinner Nico and I went to my room. As soon as I shut the door he picked me up and set me down on the bed, laying next to me.
     "So are you okay?" He said, head propped up on his elbow. He was looking down at me expectedly.
     "Sure." I said, laying flat on my back.
     "I want a real answer, Maggie." He replied.
     "Well I have to watch the people I love die and all I can do is nothing. Not. A. Thing. And now everybody is scared of me because of what I did back when I was fighting with Jax." I took a breath. "And Percy said his definition of okay was alive but I don't feel alive. I feel as if someone has stabbed me in the back but left the knife in my back so I slowly die. It's just hard to watch all the things that happen in my dreams." I had tears falling down my face. "And after the crash I thought I would never be able to tell you how I actually felt. And I'm so sorry for everything I did. And I hope you can forgi-" I didn't get to finish because Nico pulled me into a hug.
     "Maggie, I forgave you a long time ago. And I thought I would never get to see you again. I couldn't be mad at you. I love you too much." Tears were streaming down both our faces.
     "I love you too. So much." I said to his chest.
     He pulled back just a little and looked me in the eyes. Then his eyes moved to my lips and back. As if asking permission. I nodded my head slightly. He put his hand on my cheek and leaned in. He kissed me softly at first. I kissed back. Then he deepened the kiss. He pulled me closer to him. I took my arms away from his chest and put them around his neck. He pulled me into his lap, my legs around his waist. We were basically one person now. We were that close.
     He pulled back to breath and looked at me again. I looked him in the eyes. This time I pulled him back into the kiss. He kissed my jawline then went down to my neck. He left a line of soft kisses down my neck then back up. He kissed my soft spot and I let out a little moan. He smirked into my neck and kissed it a little harder. I moaned again.  He started to bite down on the spot and I gasped from the sudden contact. He smirked once again.
    He made his way back up to my mouth. This kiss was rough and passionate. He ran his tongue over my bottom lips, asking for entrance. It was my turn to smirk. I denied him. He pulled back.
    "Really?" He asked, looking kind of surprised.
    "Yes. And before we continue..."
    "What?" He asked nicely.
    "This is just a heated make-out session, right?" I asked.
    "Of course. You're 14 and I'm 15." He laughed.
    "Just making sure. Now where were we."
    "I think we were right here." He kissed me and ran his tongue over my bottom lip again. Again I denied him.
    "Fine." He sighed.
    I was wondering why he said fine when I feel his hand on my butt. I gasp, which gave him the chance he needed. He started to kiss me again. This time his tongue searching every inch of my mouth. I let him. I started to lay back on the bed. He followed me. He was on top of me so I tugged at the bottom of his shirt. He got the gesture and pulled his shirt off.
   "It's only fair if you take yours off to." He looked at me with a smirk.
   "Seriously! Where is this going?!" I asked, laughing and pulling my shirt off.
   "Well we could just take our pants off and go to sleep." He said.
   "Okay." I replied, taking my shorts off. "Clothes are restricting anyways."
   "Yeah. And we should probably lock the door or Percy could walk in. He will kill us if he sees us like this." He said. He got up and took his pants off. He locked the door.
   "Smart idea. We are too young to die." I said.
   "But we could make the most out of the night like we are going to die young." He smirked.
    "Did you just quote Ke$ha?" I asked in disbelief.
    "I knew you would get that quote. Yours always listening to music." He said.
    "Not during the important stuff. I only listen to music to calm me down." I retorted.
He came over to the bed and we laid down. He started kissing and biting my neck again. After about ten minutes of kissing we decide to try and sleep.
"I'm here if you have a nightmare." He told me. I relaxed a little.
"Okay. I love you. Goodnight Ghost King." I said.
"I love you too. Goodnight Love." He put his arm around my waist and pulled me close to him.
I was having a hard time falling asleep. Nico was asleep behind me but his grip never loosened on my waist. If anything I think it tightened. I listened to his breathing and it calm me down. That night is the first time in a while I got six hours or more sleep. That night also held no nightmares. And most importantly, I felt safe just lying in his arms.
