Nico di Angelo, son of Hades, has looked death straight in the eyes with complete confidence, not wavering a bit. But when it comes to a certain son of the sea god, Nico can't seem to hold himself together. The 7 and Nico have just defeated Gaea and are on there way back to camp half-blood. Nico tries to tell himself his feelings for Percy are gone but soon realizes he's only fallen deeper in love when he sees something he shouldn't have. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Will you Nico di Angelo, make me the happiest man on earth and go out with me?"

His mouth was splayed out in a grain, I smiled back as he laid flat underneath me. "Took you long enough to ask me" Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters, they belong to Rick Riordan.
