set after Blood of Olympus. nico's being oblivious, will's being obvious, and percy's just trying to help. i'm bad at writing descriptions and this is definitely not as artsy as the cover (which isn't saying much). thanks for taking the time to read this awkward story (also lowercase is intended and just for the description).

After that I only wore black. Black like the charred remains of everything I had once loved, black like the smoke billowing into the sky as my tears cut tracks through the black soot coating my face, and black like the little puppy that was squirming in my arms afterward, the only piece of my old life I had left. ~¤~ Four years ago, Nico's life was perfect. He had two loving parents, a caring older sister, and a beautiful house in Italy. Then a fire started in their house and everything Nico loved crumbled along with the walls and family photos. Now, Nico and his dad live in America with Nico's step mom and sister, but Hades is almost never home and Nico has hardly smiled since the fire. Maybe the boy who just moved in across the street can help him bring a stop to the relentless bullying Nico has been dealing with for two years, and maybe he can teach him to smile again in the process. - the playlist for this is linked in my bio -

Solangelo Royalty AU DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS UNLESS SAID OTHERWISE. ALL BELONG TO RICK RIORDAN. Prince Nico di Angelo is betrothed. He didn't know about it until his sixteenth birthday and they immediately want him to become acquainted with this so called king. Obviously this isn't something he wants to do, much less marry him. But as we should all know, things don't always go as planned.
