A/N: Thanksgiving Special! Preslash, not AU, Nico's point of view!!! Enjoy!

Nico was sleeping in his cabin when he heard knocking on his door.

"Go away, Jason," he yelled, not opening his eyes.

"It's Will," replied a voice, sounding slightly disappointed.

Nico opened one eye and glared at the door. "I was sleeping, go away," he called.

The door swung open and Will sauntered in, a ridiculous look on his face. "Good morn--er, afternoon, Deathboy!" Will said.

Nico glared at him and threw pillows at the son of Apollo. "Go away!" he groaned.

"But Nico, it's Thanksgiving!" Will whined.

"So?" Nico replied, sitting up in bed.

Will opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly his face turned red and he let out a squeak. His eyes were locked on something above Nico's eyes. "Y-Your hair is r-really messy," he stuttered, flustered.

Nico flushed and smoothed it out. "Sorry," he stammered.

Will stared at his feet determinedly, face pink. Then, he murmured something that sounded like "its cute", which would make no sense.

"Anyways, why should I come out?" Nico asked, anxious to get the subject off of his bed hair.

"Oh come on, you must be thankful for something," Will replied, waving his hands around.

Nico raised his eyebrows. "I'd be thankful if you left me alone," he replied.

Will rolled his eyes. "C'mon, Neeks," he said. "Lets go."

"No," whined Nico, lying back down.

Will sighed. "Guess I'm going to have to do this the hard way," he said, walking over to Nico's bed.

The next thing he knew, Will had picked Nico up like a baby and marched out of the Hades cabin and towards the Dining Pavilion, ignoring the sputters of the son of Hades in his arms.

"Hi, Will," Jason said with a small laugh as he saw the pouting teen in his arms.

"Hey, Jason," Will replied, plopping Nico onto the bench and sitting down.

Nico stuck his tongue out at Will.

"Anyways, happy thanksgiving everyone!" Piper explained. 

"Happy thanksgiving!" called everyone, although Nico reluctantly.

"Percy, want to go first?" Piper asked.

Percy nodded.

Nico looked at Will alarmingly. "What's going on?" he hissed.

"Everyone goes around saying what they're thankful for," Will replied.

Nico groaned internally. "Why did I have to come?" he whisper-whined.

Will grinned. "Because I said so, Doctor's orders," he responded cheerfully.

"Okay," Percy said. "First of all I'm thankful that miraculously I haven't died yet, which, as I may have mentioned, is a miracle. Second of all, I'm thankful for Annabeth because she's been the best friend--and girlfriend--I ever had since I was, what, 12? I dunno. It was forever ago. My point is, she's amazing, and I'm very thankful to have her in my life. And finally, I'm thankful for Nico di Angelo here--" Nico was jolted into reality when he heard his name, confused. "--who looks a little confused right now--" Nico flushed when everyone laughed slightly at this. "--because he has saved my life so many times. When he was eleven years old, he helped me bathe in the River Styx, which kinda saved my butt in the Titan War. Then, when he was only twelve, he convinced his father Hades to help fight in the Titan War, plus he fought in it too. Without him, we probably would have lost. And then, if that wasn't enough heroism for one lifetime, he helped me at Camp Jupiter when my memory was erased. And even more, he led everyone to the Doors of Death when Annabeth and I fell into Tartarus. So I just wanted to thank him for that, since I was kinda a pest to him," Percy finished. "Especially because, you know--" He met Nico's eyes and grinned mischievously, causing Nico to groan. "I'm not his type. Thank you."

Everyone clapped and Nico banged his head repeatedly on the table. "We need to talk about letting that go," Nico complained.

Percy grinned. "Nope! Look, I even made a shirt!" with that, he pulled off his jacket to show a navy blue shirt that read 'Not his type' on it.

Nico, Jason, and Annabeth collectively groaned.

"Anyways," Piper interrupted, but she was laughing. "Who wants to go next?"

Annabeth said she was thankful for Percy--of course, Chiron for taking care of her, and Camp Half Blood for being her home.

Jason was thankful for Piper for being an 'amazing girlfriend', Percy for 'being a good but annoying friend', Reyna for 'being his best friend besides Percy', and surprisingly, Nico for trusting him with his secret. At this, Nico rolled his eyes. 

"You know I was kinda forced, right?" Nico replied.

Jason grinned. "But you didn't murder me after!"

Nico cracked a smile. "I guess so."

Will stayed silent through all of this.

Piper was thankful for Leo and Jason for being her friends before Camp and Reyna for not killing her when Jason kissed her.

Hazel was thankful for Nico for taking her out of the Underworld, Frank for always being there for her, and Reyna for taking her in to Camp Jupiter even though she was a daughter of Pluto.

Frank was thankful for Hazel for the same reason she was him, Mars for giving him a blessing--Nico was confused about this--, and Reyna for the Camp Jupiter thing.

Leo was thankful for himself--of course-- and Calypso, for not drowning or burning him or starving him when he was at Ogygia.

Calypso was thankful for Leo because he saved her from Ogygia.

That's when everyone looked at Nico and he realized it was his turn.

"Uh, I'm thankful for Hazel because she's my sister and she's amazing; I'm thankful for Percy for saving my life multiple times despite what he said; I'm thankful for Bianca because even though she isn't here anymore, she would have wanted me to be happy no matter what; and, um," Nico looked over at Will, who was facing forwards with a slightly crestfallen look on his face. "Will," Nico added, causing Will to blink and look down at him, confused. "For not only helping me return to health, but also for convincing me that Camp Half blood is my home and that I can make friends. Also because he dragged me out here." People laughed at this, remembering Nico and Will's dramatic entrance. Nico half smiled at Will, who beamed back. To his surprise, Will leaned down and kissed him on the cheek, causing a lot of people to squeal. Nico reddened, but didn't object. 

"Happy thanksgiving, Will," Nico said quietly.

"Happy thanksgiving, Deathboy," Will replied happily.
