Traditions

DECEMBER 24th

Will smiled to himself in the Apollo cabin as he wrapped Nico's gift. It was Christmas Eve and a tradition for Wills family had always been to get new pajamas the night before Christmas. He wasn't really sure when it started but ever since he could remember they'd upheld it.

So right now he was wrapping a pair to give to his boyfriend. He hoped he'd like them.

With a bow on top and far too much sellotape, Will picked up the gift and headed over to the Hades cabin. It was dark outside even though it was about half four and the ground beneath him crunched as he stepped forward. He arrived at Nico's door and knocked lightly.

"Hey Will," said Nico, in what could be classed as a happy voice.

"Hey Neeks," Will replied, using his nickname and ignoring the glare that was sent his way, "I have a gift for you."

Nico's confused face looked incredibly cute and Will laughed at it light heartedly.

"It's a tradition. Just open it," said Will passing the package to his significant other who proceeded to tear all the wrapping paper off.

The pajamas that Nico now held were black with little skulls on them, and in the middle it said 'I wear the skulls of my enemies'.

Nico looked at Will shocked and hugged him tightly.

"Thank you."

It was one of the most thoughtful things anyone had ever done for him. And that's why he loved him.

A/N - Anyone else get pyjamas Christmas Eve? I just got a nice pair and they feel so soft. Anyway thanks for reading and have a great night or whatever time of the day it is.

Potatofrenchfryc - Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.

Fanperson 1 - I didn't plan it like that or anything but that makes it so much better. Now I'm awwing over it.
