Jason must have fell asleep, and when he woke up, it was to the sounds of sizzling bacon.

Nico. He thought groggily. He felt the side of the bed for the younger boy, but as Jason suspected, he wasn't there (Percy was still snoring, though). He must be cooking, Jason realized. He tried to remember if he had any dreams, but he couldn't think of any. It didn't surprise him. He never had dreams when he slept with Nico near by, save for that one with Cupid.

"Jason, could you wake up Percy?" Nico called.

"Uh, sure." Jason said, unsure of how Nico knew he was awake without even looking.

Jason looked at Percy for a moment before gently shaking his shoulder.

"Percy, wake up." He tried. The only response he got was a snore.

He tried again, shaking more roughly.

"Percy. Wake up." After a moment, Jason sighed.

"Tell him there's food." Nico suggested from the kitchen.

"Percy...there's blue pancakes. Blue pancakes that Nico made."

Percy sat up, looking eager. "Seriously?"

Jason laughed while Nico rolled his eyes.

"Yes, seriously. Get in here, Kelp Head." Nico said.

Percy sat up eagerly, looking around in anticipation, making Jason laugh even harder.

"They're in here." Nico called. He tried to seem annoyed, but Jason could hear his muffled laghter.

Yeah. Jason didn't know why, but he figured ths would be a good day.

~X~

After eating, Nico was washing dishes when Percy brought up the plan again.

"So, I was thinking-"

"Percy!" Nico chided from in front the sink, "You'll hurt yourslef!"

Jason laughed as Percy rollled his eyes. "Shut up, Death Breath. Anyway, I was thinking that maybe instead of leaving today, we could stay one more night? I mean, it's like Nico said. This is...fun. Normal."

Nico turned, his eyes wide. "I...really?"

Jason nodded thoughtfully. "Yeah, that's a great idea. We can definitely spare a day."

Nico grinned. "That's...that's awesome. Thanks."

Percy grinned back. "That's not all. We're going shopping."

Nico's grin fell.

"What?"

"Shopping. Nico, you wear the same five outfits constantly."

"I wash them!" Nico protested.

"Not the point!"

"Yes it is!"

"No it isn't! It's my point! I get to choose what it is!"

"No you don't!"

"I do, too!"

"GUYS!" Jason interrupted. "Stop. Nico, yes, we're shopping. Now, let's go."

Nico grumbled incoherently as he turned off the water in the sink.

"...fine."

"That's better!" Percy exclaimed happily,kissing Nico's forehead.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Nico mumbled, waving Percy away. "Let's just go."
