Hehe Gay Demigods in Hogwarts Go 𝓫𝓻𝓻𝓻𝓻𝓻𝓻𝓻

Nico sighed heavily as he collapsed back on his bed, Will groaning from beside him. Hecate hadn’t warned them that the knowledge of all those spells and wizarding history would give them massive headaches yet there they were, downing water and Advil and hoping they could sleep the pain off. “Love, c’mere,” Will mumbled, holding his arms out for the Son of Hades. Nico rolled over and let Will’s arms fall around him as he buried his face in Will’s neck. 

“Next time I see Hecate, I swear I’m gonna-“ Will gently shushed him, stroking his hair and sighing heavily. 

“Just sleep. We’ll worry about that later okay?” Grumbling, Nico reluctantly agreed and let his eyes shut.

“Neeks, gotta get up. Come on.”  A hand was shaking his shoulder. Nico’s eyes shot open and he groaned, head still pounding as he met eyes with Will. “It’s almost dinner time and we should pack.” He sat up slowly and rubbed his eyes. “I’ve gotta run to my cabin real quick. I’ll meet you at dinner okay?” Nico gave Will a thumbs up and crawled out of his bed, blearily stumbling around. He went to his closet and pulled out a bag, a relatively small one because he didn’t really have too much when it came to clothes. Hecate said they’d need robes to wear during “school” so he grabbed just a few shirts, pants, his pajamas, and some hoodies before he huffed then chuckled to himself. “Hogwarts, hilarious.”

He went around his room, grabbing random knick knacks ranging from a collection of tiny stuffed animals to his favorite pillow to the infamous Mythomagic Hades figurine that made his eyes water just a little as he tucked it safely into his bag. He made sure all his necessary bathroom items were on his counter, ready to be packed away the next morning. 

Nico was about to open his cabin door to go to dinner, hand on the knob when he heard a soft laugh on the other side of the door. He stepped back and let it open to reveal Will, bag in hand, with a wide grin on his lips. “Decided to sleep here tonight so I could wake you up on time Death Boy,” Will half joked, setting his bag just inside the cabin. “Coming?” He held out a hand and Nico slipped his into it, the two of them falling into step as they made their way to the dining pavilion. 

There was still the rule that demigods had to sit with their other half siblings but it was only followed for the first few days of summer before everyone just sat wherever they or their friends wanted to. Nico (and Will) had made a habit of sitting at the same table as Jason (when he was around) and Percy which, by extension included their girlfriends and other campers they happened to be talking to. Nico didn’t mind. He just sat close to Will, nibbling on half a bread loaf as the Son of Apollo “scolded” him for not eating enough. And by scolding, he means Will was pouting and threatening to force feed his boyfriend. 

“Hey Jason.” The Son of Zeus turned to see Nico tugging ever so gently on his sleeve and Will hanging off of Nico’s other shoulder. “Will and I got a task from my father and we have to leave tomorrow morning. We’re probably going to be gone for the year.” Jason frowned. 

“That long? Why?”

“Can’t tell but it isn’t dangerous. Don’t worry,” Nico reassured, shooting Jason a smile. “I’ll make sure to IM you okay?” Will pulled away from Nico’s shoulder so Jason could wrap the Son of Hades up in an impromptu hug. It was quite entertaining to watch Jason fake bawl his eyes out as he nearly choked Nico in his death grip. 

“I’ll miss you Death Boy! What am I supposed to do when Percy forces me to watch The Little Mermaid for the 118th time?” The Son of Poseidon shot a death glare at Jason, stopping his quiet conversation with Annabeth for a moment. 

“Shut up Jason. I know you love it. Jokes aside, take care Nico! We’ll all miss you!” He grinned before returning to his conversation. Jason finally released the Son of Hades, much to Will’s happiness who immediately wrapped Nico back up in his arms. 

They spent their dinner chatting and laughing with other campers, enjoying their night until 8pm, Will deciding for the both of them that in order to get enough sleep, they’d have to go back to Nico’s cabin and call it an early night. Nico said goodbye to his friends while Will hugged his half siblings and other friends before the two met on the grass, hand in hand as they walked slowly back to Nico’s cabin. 

Will didn’t bother with the room’s lights, opting to turn on their nightlight, Nico immediately moving to his dresser where he had left out pajamas for the night, and by pajamas, he meant a pair of shorts and a loose fitting tank top that most definitely didn’t belong to Will. He threw them on and started to crawl into his bed. 

Will followed suit, pulling on just a pair of shorts from his bag and standing at the edge of the bed as Nico turned to look up at him. Nico held his arms out for Will and the Son of Apollo joined him on the bed, moving up to Nico’s body and gently pushing him back onto the bed. He climbed on top of Nico and leaned down, tenderly kissing under Nico’s chin and along his jawline, getting soft whines in return. 

“My pretty little Sunset,” He murmured, moving his kisses to Nico’s neck. Nico’s fingers dragged little patterns on Will’s bare back, moving his hands up to the blonde’s neck before wrapping his arms around said neck and pulling him closer. He pressed a little kiss to the crown of Will’s head as Will moved his kisses to Nico’s chest, pushing away the fabric of his tank top. 

“Love you Will.”

“Love you too Neeks,” Will pulled away from the raven’s chest, moving back up to kiss Nico’s lips, feeling a smile against his own. “Sleep yeah?”

“Mhm.” Will laid down so Nico could curl against his chest. “Night.”

“Good night Nicky.”

(Tw bit here)

Will woke to a soft scream and nails digging into his shoulder and upper arm. 

Oh gods Nico… 

He carefully sat up, Nico clinging onto him and sobbing something incoherent. The shadows in the room were swirling gently, held at bay by the little cat night light on the nightstand and by the faint glow Will gave off. 

“Hey, Neeks. Wake up! You’re safe, you’re okay!” He hugged the Son of Hades tight, trying to force him out of his nightmare. Nightmares happened fairly frequently and each one seemed to hit poor Nico hard and Will was just glad he was there on this night particularly. With a loud cry, Nico’s eyes flew open and he choked on his own saliva, grip on Will’s shoulder loosening. 

He reached for his nightstand, hand frantically searching for something as Will held him back. “Neeks, it’s not there. Remember?” Nico stopped and looked up at Will, dark eyes pleading and swimming with tears. 

“Please… just one. I need it.” Will knew what he was talking about. He sighed and gave in. He scooted back from Nico just a little and grabbed his left wrist. Pointing his now softly glowing blue index finger to the crook of Nico’s inner elbow, he traced an inch long line across it, blood immediately welling up in the small cut. One of his powers as a healer of Apollo was the ability to cut demigod’s with just his finger incase he had to fix an emergency injury. This came in handy because when Nico had a terrible nightmare or a panic attack, his first instinct was to injure himself without care for himself and after he nearly slashed through a muscle in his wrist, Will took charge. He stashed away Nico’s box cutter blades and after a long talk with Apollo, decided he could help him by controlling what the injury was and made sure it wouldn’t leave any damage or permanent injury. 

Yes it was controversial to help his boyfriend self harm but he would rather help to control and minimize it then let him irreparably injure himself. 

Nico’s sobs softened and he buried his face in the crook of Will’s neck, holding his now steadily bleeding arm away from his boyfriend’s clean but wet with tears shirt. He thanked Will softly, leaning into the blonde’s hand as it stroked through his hair. 

“You’re okay Neeks. It’s gonna be okay.” Will held him close once more, whispering sweet nothings to him and pressing gentle kisses to the crown of his head. It was a mere 2330, the outside dark and silent. It took another half hour for Nico’s heartbeat to slow down enough to be considered normal for him and Will finally pulled away to grab the first aid kit in the nightstand’s drawer. Nico sat in front of him, eyes half lidded as Will held onto his arm and cleaned away the little bit of blood before placing a bandage over the cut and setting aside the first aid kit. “Are we feeling better now Sunshine?” Will asked softly, reaching out to hold Nico’s face in his hands. 

“Mhmm. Thanks.” He gently squished Nico’s cheeks, leaning down to press a caste kiss to the corners of his lips. Nico’s eyes were still nearly closed, dark rings around them and tears trickling down his cheeks. 

“Let’s get back to sleep. We have a few more hours before we have to get up.” Will helped Nico lay back down and he pulled the Son of Hades into his arms, using a little of his powers to soothe and send Nico straight to sleep.
