Percy

Once their various issues were resolved percy and Nico managed to pick up where they'd left off.

"-so I say her, no Hazel it's a chicken nugget. She had no idea what they were," Nico explained, huffing out a rare laugh. Percy could barely take his eyes off the son of Hades.

"Seriously? I mean leo said something about that once but i thought he was joking!" percy chuckled back. He was walking slightly behind Nico through the now muck more abundant 9 am crowds, fingers laced with the smaller teen's. He was, in fact, following so closely that when Nico stopped abruptly he crashed into him almost sending them sprawling across the pavement yet again.

"Here we are!" Nico exclaimed proudly. His hands were held up towards a sigh above a small shop.

"The Poseidon Bakery?" Percy inquired, cocking his head to the side questioningly.

"They have amazing cookies and I mean..." Percy got what he was getting at; the name of the establishment. Percy was again brought to his dream. The part where in the background stood his dad holding fresh bread. He was pulled out of his thoughts when Nico grabbed him and pulled him inside. They instantly found a small table and Nico put bus ruined gloves and his coat down.

"Hi, we'd like 2 dozen chocolate chip cookies to go please?" Nico requested politely. "Sure. That'll be about 10 minutes, sir." retorted the pimple faced boy behind the counter. Nico paid for the treats with money from the gods know where and took his seat.

"Percy, I need to tell you something" Nico said, taking percy's hands in his.

"Yes?" Percy said quietly.

"That night at westover, well, it wasn't the first time I saw you. I didn't remember until recently but we met before that. When Bianca and I were at the Lotus Hotel. You... we danced together and I've been in love with you ever since." Nico said in a panicked rush.

"Nico I, I remember that. We danced to ,"A Drop in the Ocean" by Ron Rope and I deemed it our song... gods. I love you, Nico di Angelo I really do." Percy said shaking his head and smiling his goofy smile. He had no idea what lay ahead for them but whatever it was he knew he and Nico would face it together. "Order up" pimple face called. They each grabbed a box of cookies in one hand and each other's free hand in the other.

"I love you, Percy Jackson" Nico said quietly followed my his signature nervous laugh. Percy knew then that he really meant it.
