Percy:

"So, um, the bathrooms over there" Percy said awkwardly as he gestured. Nico was sitting on the couch where his mom had made up a make-shift bed. He looked sad and awkward.

"Thanks" he mumbled.

Percy sighed and walked over to sit down next to Nico. "Look, are you okay?" he asked. Nico nodded. Percy frowned, he knew that much wasn't true. "Your parents- Uh, I mean your aunt and uncle" he corrected, already wanting to punch himself. "They'll come around" he said "some people... They just take longer than others."

Nico started twisting the ring on his hand. "They think I'm disgusting" he said quietly, and then he added even quieter "I am disgusting."

"Nico, no" Percy said, placing a hand on his shoulder. He felt Nico tense at the touch, so he took his hand back. "You're not disgusting. Neither am I, or Jason, or Leo, or anyone whose ever questioned their sexuality. There's nothing wrong with being gay or bi or even just curious. What is wrong is people who make you think you're disgusting. You're not Nico, there's nothing wrong with how you feel."

Nico finally turned his head to look at Percy. He couldn't quite tell if he believed him or not. "He's right you know." Percy turned to see his mom standing in the doorway. She smiled at Percy. "I'm sorry about how your aunt and uncle reacted," she said "you can stay here as long as you need, and if you need to talk I'm here."

Nico gave a shadow of a smile. "Thanks Ms. Jackson" he said.

She flashed him a smile. "No problem" she said. "I'm heading to bed, I'll see you boys in the morning."

The boys mumbled good nights and Sally walked out of the room. Silence settled over them once again and was only broken when Nico said "your mom is nice."

"Yea, she's pretty great" Percy said. He shifted on the couch so he was facing Nico. "You know, when I was twelve I went to yet another new school and met this older boy named Luke. He was tall and blonde and good at sports, and before I knew what was happening I had a giant crush on him. I was confused so I came home and told my mom about it and asked her if that was okay. I still remember the kindness in her eyes when she grabbed my hand and told me that yes, of course it's okay. And I believed her because I had no reason not to, so a couple years later when Luke finally realized I existed and he asked me out I didn't even blink before saying yes."

Nico glanced at him. "What's your point, Percy?" he asked.

"My point is that nobody ever told you that" Percy said. "So I am, right now. It's okay to like Leo. Or any boy."

Nico shifted awkwardly. "Why didn't Jason tell me you were together?" he asked.

Percy sighed and ran his hand through his hair. "Good question" he mumbled. "He's- struggling with all of this just like you are. But he's working on it. Just... Give him time."

"Yea.." Nico mumbled. "Apparently I'm giving everyone time."

Percy sighed and ran a hand through his hair. "Apparently we all are."

Jason:

Jason paced outside Percy's apartment. He'd been standing there for about five minutes and hadn't made any progress in actually going in. It'd only been a day since his parents had kicked out Nico and he had made no leeway in getting them to change their minds. He wanted to talk to Nico, of course, but he also wanted to talk to Percy and make sure he wasn't angry with him. Jason finally lifted his hand to knock when the door flung open. He jumped as he found himself face to face with Paul, Percy's step dad. "Uh, hi" he said.

"Hello Jason" he said. "Are you here for Percy or Nico?"

"Both I guess" Jason said. "Can I come in?"

Paul shifted awkwardly. "Well there's no parents home and Sally wouldn't be happy about me letting Percy's boyfriend in" he said and Jason's heart sunk. "So... Don't tell her I let you in."

Jason smiled. "Yes sir" he said as he slipped into the apartment and Paul walked the other way. He walked into the living room to see Nico was still passed out on the couch. He wasn't surprised, it was only nine. He walked over and placed a kiss on Nico's forehead before heading over to Percy's bedroom. He thought about knocking, but he didn't want to wake Nico so he just let himself in. He closed the door behind him and glanced at the bed to see Percy was still passed out.

Jason smiled and stared down at him. He was shirtless in a pair of boxers. He was sprawled out on the bed, lying on his back. Jason could see as his chest rose and fell with each breath. Jason kicked off his shoes and climbed onto the bed. Percy shifted as the bed moved. Jason lied down on his side so his face was inline with Percy's. Percy yawned and opened his eyes. Jason smiled. "Hey."

Percy rubbed his eyes. "What'd I do to get to wake up to a hot boy in my bed?" he said in a groggy voice that Jason rather liked.

"Well I came here to see you and Nico, but you were both asleep. I figured you would like it better than Nico if I climbed into bed with you" he said. Percy smiled and rolled over to sling an arm around Jason. He leaned forward and kissed him on the mouth. Jason pulled away from the kiss. "Hello morning breath" he teased.

"Shut up," Percy said. "Did you talk to your parents about Nico?"

"Kind of," Jason said. "I tried but they shut me down and they went off to work before I woke up this morning. I'll talk to them some more tonight. Maybe... Maybe if we tell them that Leo and Nico are over they'll let him come back."

Percy shot Jason a look that suggested he wasn't on board with that idea. "Don't lie Jason" he said "the point is to get them to accept Nico, not ignore his sexuality. Plus what're you going to do when you have to come out?"

Jason groaned and laid his head down on the bed. "I don't know" he mumbled.

Percy let out a long yawn as he stretched out. Jason couldn't help but take in the slope of Percy's muscled abdomen as he arched his back. The little black trail of hair that lead to... Maybe morning breath wasn't so bad...

"Look I'm not pushing you to come out, but I think you should come out."

Jason rolled over so he was hovering above Percy. "How bout we talk about that later?" he leaned down and placed a kiss on Percy's jaw.

"Jason" Percy said in a warning voice, but he put his hands on Jason's waist. "We should really talk about it now."

Jason sat back and pulled his shirt off. "Hey now, you told me you want me to admit to my parents that I'm gay and that you want me to admit that I want to get my boyfriend off" he said "and I'm only in the mood to do one of those things right about now."

Percy's eyes got wide as he realized what Jason was indicating. "Yea, we can talk about it later" he said. Jason smiled as he leaned down to place kisses on Percy's collarbone. "Y-Ya know you don't have to do anything y-you don't want to" Percy said, but his breaths were getting heavier.

Jason bit down on Percy's collarbone, and he heard Percy take a sharp intake of breath. "I want to" he said. He ran his hands down Percy's chest and hooked his fingers under the waistband of Percy's boxers. He hoped his hands weren't shaking as he slowly pulled them down and off of Percy's hips. Percy shifted to kick his boxers off completely. Jason leaned back on his heals and looked down at Percy. He was already half hard and holy shuck was he beautiful. Jason's heart sunk a little when he realized Percy was bigger than he was.

He felt Percy's hands on his thighs. "We can still stop if you want" he said, but his eyes told another story.

Jason shook his head. "Just- Just bare with me, okay?" he said with an awkward laugh. He lifted his hand and wrapped it around Percy's cock. He slowly moved his hand up and down and he felt Percy get harder under his touch. He looked up at Percy's face to see he was already staring at him, his mouth slightly open and his pupils blown. "T-That's good" Percy encouraged. "Keep going."

Jason nodded and moved his hand up and down a little faster. This wasn't so bad, he decided. He'd done this to himself countless times, and it wasn't really all that different. In fact, it was kind of empowering. Percy was starting to breathing faster and the occasional whimper escaped his lips. He glanced down at his hand to see pre-cum leaking from Percy's tip. He thumbed the tip to try and use the pre-cum a lubricant. Percy let out a low groan when Jason did so, and he tried not to smile too triumphantly. He knew it felt good when he thumbed his own tip, he didn't know why that thought hadn't occurred to him before. He did his best to keep doing that, and Percy started to let out louder groans. "Gods Jason" Percy breathed. "Faster."

Jason tried to go faster, but apparently it wasn't enough because Percy grabbed him by the shoulders and flipped them over so he was on top of Jason. And then Percy's hands were on Jason's basketball shorts and shoving them down along with his boxers. Percy shifted so their cocks were lined up and Jason gasped at the contact. He hadn't even realized he was hard until that moment. He didn't really have time to comprehend what was going on because Percy started to grind their erections together and Jason called out.

Jason's hands went to Percy's waist and they ground together at a rhythm that was driving Jason mad. "P-Percy" he moaned. "Oh my gods."

"Gods Jason I'm close" Percy practically whispered into his ear which only pushed Jason closer to the edge. Though he was a little embarrassed to admit it he was close too. Jason ground his hips harder against Percy's, and a moment later Percy took a deep intake of breath and his hands curled into fists as a hot liquid spilled over their stomachs. Before Percy was even done Jason lost control too. He called out Percy's name and only after the fact did he remember that Nico was asleep just on the other side of the wall.

Afterwards Percy rolled off Jason and collapsed on his back. Jason closed his eyes and tried to collect himself. Percy turned his head to look at Jason. "That wasn't too much, was it?" he asked.

Jason shook his head. "No" he said "definitely not too much."

Percy leaned over and placed a light kiss on Jason's lips. "See?" he said quietly. "You can do this. You can be who you are. You don't have to be ashamed."

Jason gave a small smile. "I know" he said, and he almost believed it.

Sorry the update took so long! I'll try and update soon. Lemme know what you thought!
