Solangelo high school au but Nico is a girl

Nicos POV

This is gonna be a short chapter, I wanted to end that last one on a cliffhanger, but I need to continue with Nico for a bit. Sorry.

But he deserves to know my feelings. That's the least I can do.

"I like you a lot too will. But... are we really right for each other?" I almost hear his heart break "You know what I'm going through and if we are in a relationship I don't want you to go down with me. You deserve so much better." Warm tears slide down my face. I try not to show them, but Will notices. In a way I want him to agree and walk away, but I also want him to say no that he will go down with me if he has too. But I don't, I don't know what I want. All I know is that he deserves to be happy.

He doesnt walk away or pull me into a hug or kiss me. He tenderly grabs my hand. His warmth, rolling across my body. "Nico. You're kidding right?" He lets out a strangled laugh "I'm not letting you go. We are right for each other. We might not be tomorrow or a week later or even in 10 years. But right now. Your perfect for me. And I'm going to keep you safe. I don't deserve better, you are better, you're the best." My hearts pounds in my chest and my knees threaten to collapse. But they dont all I can do is stare at him. I don't know what to do.
