A/N: It feels strange to even type this, I cannot apologize for the abandonment of this story since there is not a sufficient apology. I hope that you simply accepted a new chapter and forgive my poor timing. I will finish my other stories as well. I also have someone to yell at me about this now.

Nico blushed violently as Percy tilted the basket so the younger demigod could see what remained inside. He cast his gaze downward to avoid looking at Percy or the objects, only to feel the light touch of Poseidon's son on his cheek.
Percy gently lifted Nico's face to meet his eyes, "I'm not saying we have to or anything, I just..um…" He blushed and had to look away himself, if only for a moment. Still not looking directly at Nico he heard the younger male mutter, "I wouldn't mind…just don't know how."
Looking at him fully again Percy shrugged, "I uh, I looked some stuff up once so I kinda have an idea." Both boys had reddened cheeks as they tried to discuss this. After a few moments of silence Nico leaned up against Percy, looking at him with a clear desire. Percy returned that gaze, his own eyes darkening as let himself truly look at Nico's nude form. The tan of the younger boys skin made Percy's stomach flutter in ways he'd never experienced before.
Nico stared up at Percy, who was just a tad taller than him, "So, are you going to kiss me?" He asked, cheeks still red but a brave confidence in his tone. Percy smiled just a bit and leaned down to close the distance between their mouths. Soft lips met and moved against each other in slow tandem before Nico, continuing his bravery, licked at Percy's lower lip and parted his own in clear invitation.
Percy followed Nico's tongue back into the younger demigod's mouth, sighing softly at the taste of chocolate and something unidentifiably dark. Nico shuddered in response, wrapping his arms around Percy tightly, the tang of the sea and fresh clear days pervading his mouth.
They stood kissing, Percy's tongue rubbing along Nico's exploring the warmth of his mouth in desperate attempt to memorize everything, for some time. Nico pulled away first, breathing roughly. He didn't speak just gazed up at Percy who understood perfectly and they sank to their knees in the grass, Nico laying back automatically, looking a bit uncertain. Percy took Nico's hand, kissing his way over Nico's fingers and up the tanned skin of his wrist. "Warm." He murmured against the younger boys skin, causing a small smile to flit over Nico's features.
Resuming his kisses Percy made his way to the inner crease of Nico's elbow, fingers trailing up to his shoulder and back down, before he moved to Nico's abdomen, allowing his lips to drag over dusky nipples. Nico bit his lip, a slight mewling sound working its way out. Percy smiled against Nico's skin, continuing lower, licking into his bellybutton as he bent over the younger male's form.
Avoiding the straining appendage between Nico's thighs, black curls that looked invitingly soft surrounding it, Percy gently lifted the boys legs, kissing along his thighs. When he reached to where his nose almost brushed Nico's phallus, he paused and looked straight up at Nico.
"Tell me if, uh, if this isn't okay." Percy had so far just been going with his instincts, worshipping Nico's body like he'd been wanting to since their clothes vanished. Now he was more focused, he dipped his head down, looking at Nico's tight entrance and swallowing before deciding he might as well try.
He licked at him tentatively, swirling his tongue around the tight ring of muscles and pushing it in just slightly, Nico's light moans pushing him to continue as well as Nico's hands on his shoulders. Percy licked more earnestly, flicking his tongue a bit deeper each time he passed over the younger male's entrance.
When Nico's moans had become loud groans he slowed and rocked back on his heels, looking at Nico's flushed and panting form in the grass. He pulled the lube and the condoms from the basket.
Nico nodded to Percy who gave him a soft smile, both were almost afraid to speak, to break the magic of the moment they had been given. Percy leaned over Nico, kissing his hip and rubbing his thumb over the inside of Nico's thigh, the condoms set in the grass as he set back once more to open the lube and squirt it on his fingers. He looked at Nico seriously, "I read this isn't always the best, so tell me if I need to stop, okay?" Nico nodded, wiggling his hips some, impatient to keep going.
Leaning back down, Percy's breath ghost over Nico's member and he gently rubbed a slick finger over Nico's hole. Taking the younger male into his mouth part way he slid his finger into him slowly. Nico gasped, hands fisting in Percy's hair as the son of Posiden slowly licked his way down and engulfed Nico, his finger slowly pushing in all the way.
There was a pause and Percy slipped his finger almost out again, very slowly as he raised his head until just the tip of Nico was at his lips. He continued this, slowly speeding up as Nico's body loosened and relaxed. The soft moans leaving Hades' son making Percy's own erection twitch against his belly.
He worked the muscles of Nico's hole for a while longer, pausing his oral ministrations as Nico had started to cry out loudly. Nico had lifted his hips, liking the feeling of Percy's finger inside him. When he was ready Percy added another finger, working him thoroughly and licking his shaft slowly to distract him from the discomfort. He was slowly swallowing Nico's member when he added a third and Nico cried out, bucking his hips up and realizing into Percy's mouth, leaving him no choice but to swallow.
"S-sorry." He stammered, lowering his hips, Percy's fingers still moving inside of him as Percy shook his head. "Hush." He could taste Nico on his tongue, thick and with an edge of darkness like his kisses. "Is it alright if I keep…?" He paused the motion of his hand but Nico nodded, urging him to continue. Percy wiggled his fingers, deciding Nico was as loose as possible. He unwrapped a condom, Nico watching him with heavy-lidded eyes and flushed cheeks, one hand pressed to his lips as he panted lightly, "No."
Percy paused, looking at Nico confused, "What?" Nico flushed brighter, "Don't, I want you, not that. I trust you. Please." Percy swallowed, seeing Nico's expression though he nodded.
Percy was shaking as he poured lube over himself. Looking at Nico he kept one hand on the ground as he hovered over the younger male. He kissed Nico softly, pressing the head of his member against Nico's entrance, waiting for the nod that Nico gave before slowly pushing forward.
Nico made himself relax, breathing slowly and feeling the heat in his belly stirring back to life. Percy was watching him closely, bracing himself with both hands now and carefully moving forward. Time was moving like molasses around them and when Percy was finally fully sheathed inside Nico he felt like fire was eating him alive. The heat was maddening and Percy made himself wait for Nico's nod again.
Moving with the slow deliberation Percy kissed Nico heavily, "I'm not gonna…make it-ah-very long." He panted. Nico smiled, "Alright." He breathed, reveling in the feeling of Percy inside of him.
Percy began to speed up looking at Nico as he did, making sure he wasn't hurting the boy but Nico's eyes were fluttering closed, mouth open slightly as he gasped, tiny little sounds of pleasure leaving him. He was terribly sensitive after his own orgasm.
Percy moaned, dropping his head into Nico's shoulder as he rocked forward into the boy, hips coming together hard as he gave soft cries of his own against the warm flesh of his lover. It didn't take long before Percy was frantically kissing Nico, his release spilling inside of the younger male.
He stayed perfectly still for a moment before shakily sliding out of Nico and rolling to the side. Both boys were panting, looking at each other they grinned and then Nico was laughing, "I feel like jello." He giggled, causing Percy's laughter to grow in volume.
Both of them laughed, relief and love spilling from them. They lay like that, hands just touching in the grass, until they had recovered their facilities. Standing Percy pulled Nico toward the waterfall. "We'd better wash up and go, we'll be lucky not to miss the wedding." Nico nodded, smiling still and wincing as he moved forward, knowing he would be sore for a while, though Percy had taken care of him.
Stepping into the water Nico shivered, he wished it was warmer. Percy followed, as he did the water began to warm up some and Nico was grateful. Percy was staring at him though. "What?" He asked concerned. Percy just grinned and pointed at Nico's arm, only partially submerged, water was climbing up toward his shoulder, the way it responded to Percy. Nico stared at it as well, "How?" he was amazed, he barely felt the water.
Percy laughed, "I have no idea and I don't want to ask right really are going to be late." He dove and popped back up washing himself quickly. Nico followed his example, resolved to investigate the water thing later. Percy swam toward the bank, crossing under the shadow of a tree, as he did he popped out of sight, reappearing under the tree where their clothes were. He flopped onto the grass in confusion and Nico's bright laughter.
Joining him a moment later Nico grinned, "Cool! Water likes me and you can shadow step!" Percy grinned as he pushed himself up, "I wonder why…" He shrugged it off and handed Nico his clothes.
They dressed together and clasping hands stepped under the shadow of the nearest tree, vanishing from the Garden as Aphrodite popped into being.
"Tch! Didn't even clean up." She looked around and pulled out a list written on scented stationary, her perfectly manicured nails tapping down the list before she withdrew a pen from her Coach clutch, the color matched her slinky Chanel dress. She placed a check next to the boys names and sighed, snapping her fingers, the landscape re-arranged itself around her.
"Now then, onto the next ones."
