Jason was in a very awkward situation.

He and Percy had been binge watching Disney films, catching up on the ones they might have missed and taking the piss out of the very bad ones. It had been great to have some time to relax and hang out without some god popping in and dragging them on a quest, and Jason hoped they could do it more often. It was nice to spend one-on-one time with Percy.

But that had lead to a very awkward situation.

Just as Percy favourite Disney film (Moana) has finished, Jason realised that Percy was asleep. Against Jason's side. With his head on Jason's shoulder.

Jason immediately froze and blushed, silently freaking out. Percy's body was warm and heavy against Jason, and it made him feel electric.

"P-Percy?" Jason called out quietly.

Percy just made a quiet little noise that made Jason's heart beat faster, and snuggled further against Jason, which really didn't help the situation.

See, Jason was dealing with a problem. And that problem was that he had a crush on his very straight friend. And that very straight friend happened to be Percy. The guy who was currently using him as a pillow.

Jason shook his head and took a deep breath. Right, he thought, What should I do?

He figured that his options were: stay there and regret the decision in the morning, leave Percy there and go take the bed which would make Percy regret his decision in the morning, take Percy to the bed and sleep on the couch which he would regret in the morning, or they could both sleep sleep in the bed.

Fortunately and unfortunately, he figured that the last option was the best. Fortunately because he'd be able to be close to Percy, and unfortunately because it was painful to be so close and unable to do a thing.

He picked Percy up and walked to the bedroom, putting him down on the bed and sitting down beside him. He knew he should just turn off the light and go to sleep, but he didn't. He instead sat there, and admired Percy.

Jason could understand why so many people had fallen for Percy just based on his looks alone. He was beautiful. That wasn't the word he'd usually use to describe a guy, but that seemed like the only word that really fit. He was too rough enough to be handsome, and too soft to be hot.

Percy, for once, looked calm and Jason found that he liked this expression very much. He didn't look completely relaxed - his eyebrows were knitted together slightly and his muscles were still a bit tense - but he looked more relaxed than Jason had ever seen him.

Jason's gaze trailed down from Percy's brows to his full lips, and felt like his nerve were electrified. It would be so easy to just lean down and kiss him, he'd never know. And may be, just maybe, he could move on then...

But Jason wasn't going to take advantage of his friend. He wasn't like his father.

So he turned off the lights and laid down next to Percy, trying to calm himself down. He faced away from Percy, staring at the wall feeling wide awake, but couldn't sleep no matter how much he tried.

After five, silent minutes, he gave up and turned back around. Then, he shifted a bit closer and closed his eyes. He hoped Percy wouldn't mind.

After the war, they'd both decided to make an effort to get to know each other, and Jason didn't regret it at all. He loved sparring with Percy, staying up to binge watch movies and generally spending time with him. Percy was funny, kind and smarter than what people gave him credit for. He could make Jason laugh for hours, and make him feel better with one little smile.

Jason had realised his feelings for Percy were less than platonic when Percy had thrown back his head and laughed at a joke Jason had told, and it stole Jason's breath away. And that wasn't a platonic reaction to seeing your friend laugh.

He'd pulled away from Percy for while because of that, going through a major sexuality crises. But he couldn't manage it for long. All it took was seeing Percy's hurt expression for him to apologise and wipe away any thoughts of trying to avoid Percy. He couldn't hurt Percy, he wouldn't hurt Percy. Crush aside, Percy was Jason's friend, and Jason would never want to hurt his friends.

So now Jason was stuck trying to hide his crush, and the fact that Percy was now single didn't help the matter.

Suddenly, Percy reached out for Jason and wrapped his arms around Jason, effectively cutting off his train of thought.

Jason froze, staring at Percy with wide eyes. He prayed to all the gods that Percy couldn't hear his thumping heart or feel the heat in his cheeks.

"Stop worrying," Percy mumbled, "Just sleep."

"Percy?"

"Sleep."

Percy glared at him in the dark, and that was all it took for Jason to nod and closed his eyes.

He couldn't sleep - how could he when he had Percy wrapped around him? - but he kept silent and tried to relax. Hopefully Percy wouldn't remember his creepy staring in the morning and everything could go back to normal.
