Title: Ti Amo, Amore Mio

Disclaimer: All rights go to Rick Riordan for that he created the awesomeness known as Nico Di Angelo and everything else related to Percy Jackson and the Olympians/Heroes of Olympus. Aside from the Gods, they are copyrighted from the Ancient Greeks. This fanfiction, on the other hand is entirely mine. No money was made from this, but comments are quite lovely and appreciated. ^^

Pairing(s): Nicercy, [will probably add more later]

Warning: Very little, slight-angsty themes, shounen-ai, very little, slight blood, OoCness, and profanity [when I say slight, it will be very little. And little as in a tiny, small prick.]

A/N: -pouts- I feel pretty disappointed with you guys. I had about over one hundred-ish people view/visit my story, on the first few hours, but no one reviewed. I'm glad that a lot of people [well to me, that's a lot] are willing to click on my story, but no one seems to like giving feedback. -sigh- I like to know if you guys are enjoying my story or not, so I can improve to satisfy your "expectations". So please review or just leave a little PM, it'll make my time writing this story better, knowing that people enjoy it! ^^

Ooh! And thank you NicoDiAngeloLover7, Perseus di Angel, Mysterious Girl and happybluebirde for being the first supporters, it means a lot to me that you read my story! You sirs deserve a cookie! c:

"Go to Tartarus." Nico hissed in Kronos ear as he impaled the titan on his sword. Nico slid his sword out of the titan before slicing the titan's head off. Kronos's head rolled off, and landing on the wilted, grassy floor. Nico trotted over to Percy, kneeling beside him, kissing his forehead before carrying Percy's limp body.

"I'm glad I got to protect you."

"You didn't have to protect me… Dammit!"

He gritted his teeth, while his emotions crumbled.

-x-

"WE WON!" Cheers erupted out of both Greeks and Romans. Kronos was finally defeated. Demigods were hugging each other, laughing and smiling. But two heroes were missing from the celebration.

Hazel looked out in the distance and saw a figure walking closer to them.

"Nico! You're back!" Hazel cheerfully exclaimed, knowing that her brother is alive.

Nico's bangs covered his tear-filled eyes as he limped closer to her, carrying a body in his arms. Hazel didn't see the fallen figure that he was carrying.

She squinted her eyes and gasped at what she saw. Tears began to form in her eyes as she covered her mouth with her hands.

The demigods turned to see what Hazel was looking at, the cheering immediately stopped.

Nico painfully lifted his head up and gently placed Percy's body on the harden floor.

Annabeth couldn't believe her eyes at what she saw. Her brother, in all but blood, was peacefully lying still with a gaping hole in his midsection.

Nico sorrowfully shook his head, His teeth piercing his lip, blood increasing every second on his pale mouth.

Rain softly poured on them.

"...Is he…?" The question was never finished. The teens were crying and weeping for the fallen savior.

Nico felt water rolling down his cheek. His eyes snapped open.

"Wait," He brought his hand up and felt his cheek. "...WATER!"

"Bring him to the ocean," A voice gently whispered through the air. "Water will be his savior."

The Greeks and Romans all brought their head up.

"Lord Poseidon/Neptune" They were too distracted by their fellow demigod to care enough to bow.

Nico glanced at Percy before picking up his crippled body. The demigods watched the boy as he took Percy in his arms and limped to the roaring waves that splashed from side to side before stepping into the ocean.

Nico stood, holding Percy tightly in his arms, waiting for him to heal.

"Heal dammit! Pease heal!" Nico felt desperate, wanting to do whatever he can so he could save his love.

Poseidon turned his head away from the scene with a tired frown wearing his face. He shuffled towards the pair, his face gradually looking a bit older. Poseidon rested a hand on the Son of Hades's shoulder and shook his head.

Nico looked back at his shoulder, his eyes, looking too mature on his face.

"Let him rest," Poseidon distressingly sighed. "He will soon heal after he has rested."

"Nico…" Annabeth leaned on the doorway, looking at the Son of Hades and her brother. Nico refused to answer, sitting beside the unconscious body, holding his hands tight. She sighed, crossing her arms in front of her chest.

"Percy wouldn't want you to do this, Nico." Nico gritted his teeth against his lip and hung his head low.

It's been a month since the war has ended and the hero has still not woken up yet. Nico has been by his side, not having slept and eaten anything for the past time. His clothes hanging off his frame, his skin close to a pale ghost, not moving from his spot next to Percy.

"He would've told you to take care of yourself."

"Percy wouldn't want to see yo-" Nico slammed his hand against the wooden table next to him, interrupting Annabeth.

"You wouldn't know what he wants! You are just an ignorant little girl who doesn't understand anything!" Nico roared angrily at Annabeth, taking his grief out on her, angry tears formed on her face,

SLAP! A red bruise forming on his cheek as his eyes showed his shock, "NO! YOU'RE THE ONE WHO DOESN'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING! PERCY WOULDN'T WANT TO SEE YOU LIKE THIS, SO FORGIVE ME FOR TRYING TO TAKE OF YOU FOR HIM!" Annabeth stormed out of the room, leaving Nico alone with Percy. Nico stood frozen before looking down as his feet. Nico's eyes watered, his nails digging into his palm.

"Nico, don't cry… You look better when you're happy!"

Liquid dribbled down his cheek as he wiped it with his shirt sleeve. He hesitantly walked over to Percy, before caressing his silky hair,

"I love you. I'll be back" Nico whispered before heading out the door.

"Nico! You've come to join us!" Jason gave a warming smile.

"C'mon Angelo!" Reyna welcomed as she waved her hand towards the pale boy.

Nico glanced over to them before giving them his own slight smile. Something he hasn't done ever since the war.

A few other campers joined them.

"See you've cooled down Dead Boy." Annabeth gave a playful smirk at Nico.

"Whatever." Nico scoffed quietly, staring at the blue afternoon sky.

"Stop bickering you two!" Although Hazel looked slightly more cheerful to see her brother out of the cabin.

The demigods stood up to offer their food to their godly parents in the fire. They chattered off as Nico was too lost in his head, still seated.

"Percy. You promised me that you'll live through this, right? Don't you dare leave me like Bianca and my mother did." Nico unnoticablely clenched his fist.

"-ico! Nico!" He felt a hand shaking his shoulder, taking out of his trance.

"Jeez. You sir, were spacing out!" Jason shook exasperatedly shook his head, grinning.

"What are we going to do with you, mister?" Hazel scolded playfully with a small smile on her face.

"C'mon, you slowpokes!" Annabeth waved her hands, gesturing to come this way.

"You guys up for a spar?" Jason smirked at Nico. Nico nodded his head, taking out his Stygian Iron sword from his side.

Jason borrowed a spear out from the weapon storage cabin. They both took their stance while the other demigods sat down on the bench, watching the friendly spar.

The Son of Jupiter swiftly glided the pointed staff at Nico's side. Nico blocked the attack with the blunt side of his gleaming metal sword. Nico had a slight advantage since he was quite used to his weapon while Jason was no master with a spear.

The Ghost King did a backwards somersault and landed behind him to make some distance between the two.

Nico landed swiftly on his feet, holding his sword in front of his face, wearing a smirk on his face.

"Get ready, Jase." Nico warned before he swung the sword at Jason's chest. Jason bended his body back to avoid being cut in half. Nico swept his legs below Jason before the Son of Jupiter could move. Jason fell on his back with Nico's tip of his sword at his neck.

"I yield." Jason nervously chuckled, rubbing his hand behind his head in a sheepish expression. Nico offered a hand at Jason, helping the taller boy up.

"Damn Nico! You sure know how to fight with that sword of yours." Nico gave a toothy grin at the blonde.

"Great spar. But I'll beat you next time!" Jason cockily smirked at the shorter teen.

"Sure, whatever you say." Nico rolled his eyes and softly laugh at his brotherly partner,

Hazel beamed at the pair. Her older brother was slightly happy, that's what mattered to her.

"If only you would wake up Percy." Hazel walked away with a sad smile adorning her mouth.

A/N: Sorry for the crappy chapter and spar scene. It might seem like a filler chapter for now. But Neeks is happy, kind of. This will not, I repeat will not be a Jason/Nico fic, they have a brotherly relationship not as a couple. -shudders- Gah. It gives me the shivers. Oh yeah! Please do tell me if you guys want longer chapters because I hope not to make the fic too long 'cuz it might bore you to death! XD

But, the next chapter might come out a bit late because, I've gotten sick and feel terrible. T^T But do remember to review, please and thank you! c:
