Nico'sPOV
Nico ran back down the hall after pulling away from Percy, who was very confused by what Nico had just done. He slammed the door of 'his' room behind him, flinging himself onto his bed, sobbing into the pillow. Stunned, Percy did nothing to stop him and was still standing there rooted to the spot until Jason, who was wondering what was wrong with his best friend, walked past, so Percy told him what'd just happened.
Back in Nico's room however, Nico was crying into his pillow, not really noticing when the door opened. He did however notice when the temperature in the room seemed to go up a couple of degrees, meaning Leo had just walked in. He defiantly noticed feeling on of the mechanics hands rubbing circles into his back in an attempt to comfort him, sending little shivers down Nico's spine.
"Whats wrong?" Leo asked , getting straight to the point. But Nico couldn't answer properly. All he managed to say was "Percy..." and choked back another wave of tears.
"its ok..." Leo's voice was incredibly soft as Nico buried his head in Leo's chest , clinging onto his curly hair, his shirt, anything. Leo stroked Nico's hair gently." What did Percy do?" the tone in his voice warned Nico that Leo was going into protective mode. " I -I kissed h-him !" Nico confessed, a fresh onslaught of tears pouring down his cheeks. Looking at him in amazement, Leo asked " why the Hades did you do that?!"
"I don't know! I'm an idiot... he'll hate me forever now..." Nico realised miserably. Leo shook his head "I don't think Percy can hate anyone, he's too kind. But although he won't hate you, he wont ever return your feelings as he's straight and dating Annabeth. You know that right?" he said.
"I know." Nico sighed. Leo smiled. "What?" Nico asked.
"Just had a crazy idea." Leo said, leaning forwards. Nico was only slightly surprised when Leo cupped Nico's jaw in his hand and pressed his lips to Nico's, since he'd known for a couple of weeks Leo was bi and had a slight crush on him. What Nico had not been expecting was how warm Leo's lips felt against his own deathly cold ones. Nico kissed him back and for once Percy was far, far from his thoughts.
