Kisses, Mad-E

Jason

The rest of the month was just one big game of avoid the rapist, taking every measure to keep Nico safe. I'm seriously regretting letting Nico come back to school, for several reasons.

Reason 1: Percy is a creepy stalker whose convinced rape is not that big of a deal.

Reason 2: Nico stays up all night doing homework until I force him to go to bed, which only worked if I held him in a death grip until he's actually sleeping, not that I mind...my hands tend to 'wander' though.

Reason 3: Ever since Leo and Nico started getting close, Leo's been coming over with Piper so Nico could make them (and me) dinner, sometimes he they even came over extremely early and wake us up, so that Nico will make them breakfast (I eat too, obviously).

All this month has been is stressful, and not just the drama with Nico, but my father to. Hestia had said he would be coming that week, yet he still hasn't come home yet...I called and he said he'd be coming home soon but never gave a solid date. I don't know why but it's been bothering me. I push my worries away but at night when Nico's sleeping it catches up to me. My father doesn't know I have a boyfriend...or the fact that I'm gay in the first place. So I guess I'm just scared my dad will walk in on us having a steamy make out session on the couch or something.

I lean back in my desk chair, not actually paying attention to the American History lesson. The class never held my interest but now with so much on my mind it's impossible to actually listen at all the boring mumbo jumbo that the teacher is spewing out.Scribbling in my notebook just for show, I let my mind wander away to faraway places of happy dreams and not boring teacher. Which of course means daydreaming about Nico...like always. I think back to the night right after Percy jumped Nico.

I jump awake the muffled whimpers and choked sobs and Nico squirming in my arms, pushing at my chest. He claws at me and at himself, scratching at his arms like he's trying to rip something off himself. I grab his hands and hold them away so he can't hurt me or himself.

"N-No! Stop! STOP! Please don't do this!! GAHHH! STOP PERCY!! PLEASE!!" he screamed. It made my chest tighten, it broke my heart.

Then he started screaming for me, which hurt worse.

"Jason! PLEASE!! JASON PLEASE!! Please- I dun wanna be alone...please...don't let'm hurt me!"

It became unbearable and it hurt too much see him like that.

"I'm right here Nico, I'm right here, I won't let him get you! Please! Just wake up and see that I'm right here!" I cried, sitting up and pulling him against me so that he's sitting in my lap with one leg on each side of my waist.

He jumped awake, his eyes shooting open. Immediately his eyes made contact with mine and he just stared at me for a second before a sob broke past his lips and he buried his face in my chest. He wrapped his arms around my neck and pulled himself closer to me. I wrapped an arm around his torso protectively and finger combed his knotty hair with my other hand.

"It's okay, I'm right here," I assured quietly while he cried.

"Don't let him hurt me," he mumbles over and over again into my bare chest.

"I won't, I'll never let him hurt you, " I soothed.

"...Promise?"

I couldn't help but smile. Whenever he said that it was just plain adorable and it always made me feel special.

"Promise."

And then I held him until he fell back asleep.

Ever since then, Nico's become more comfortable with me. Letting me kiss him and hold him more often, and I defiantly take advantage of that.

Without realizing it I began to write Nico's name all over my notebook. The whole page was covered in my sloppy boyish handwriting, overlapping letters all over the place.

Then the bell goes off. I shut my notebook with the Nico mantra still on the random page.It's the end of the day and I have to pick up Nico. Him and Leo share a locker now, since Percy is always stalking at Nico's. The 4 of us have actually gotten very close. When Leo found out about the New Year's incident Nico had decided to tell Piper and when she found out she was furious. It took a lot to calm her down but in the end we all just drifted together and got extremely close. We were the tight knit group of friends Leo always had planned. It was like a little family, just a lot better.

I rush out of the classroom and down the hall when someone grabs the back collar of my shirt. I choke as the fabric wraps tightly around my neck and I almost fall back. There are a few gasps around me.I turned around to consult the douche who tried to choke me with my own shirt. And of course, guess who I find.

Percy.

"What do you want?" I can't help but sneer.

"I want you to stay away from my boyfriend!" he growls.

Sonuvabitch!

"You're boyfriend?! What the fuck is wrong with you?! Or are you really just that stupid?" I grit my teeth.

Percy turns red in the face and draws back a fist. He hits me hard in the mouth and I stumble back, pain exploding in my face and I drop all my books.I lunge forward and tackle Jackson to the floor. He hits the floor hard with me sitting on his chest. I slam my fist into his right eye while he's still fazed. Then I send a blow to his right cheekbone.I prepare for another hit but am over and a knee is jabbed into my stomach. The air escapes my lungs and my eyes tear up.I get punched in the lip again and the taste of blood washes over my tongue. Another hit lands on my jaw, making the world blur.I pull my hand back and swing my fist hard at Percy's neck. He cries out, falling of me. I roll onto my hands and knees and spit blood out onto the floor. Wiping my chin with my sleeve I get back to my feet.Percy's still on the floor holding his neck. I kick him hard in the side. So hard that it makes my foot hurt. When I pull my foot back Percy grabs my ankle, yanking my foot out from under me.I lose my balance and fall back, hard. The air leaves my lungs and I see stars. The world spins and my eyes tear up and a heavy weight sits on my stomach which is aching. Then a fist hits my face, right on the corner of my eyebrow. I bring my arms up to protect my face but the blows keep coming, hitting my chest and arms now.I blink my eyes fast, trying to clear my vision and get my head back in the game. When my eyes finally do clear I push Percy off me and flip myself back on to him. The action sends the painful shockwaves to my skull but I ignore it and begin to beat the shit out of Percy.I volley a downpour of hits on Percy's face and torso. I hit him until the skin on my knuckles split and my blood mixes with his.

"BOTH STOP!!! RIGHT THIS FUCKING MINUTE!!!" Piper's voice echoes in my head and I freeze. Percy, who was about to hit me, freezes too.

Piper has that effect.We look over to her but my eyes find who's behind her more important.

Wide eyed and slacked jawed, Nico stands a little frightened but mostly gob smacked, clutching on to Leo's arm. All around them and us is a circle of kids, form seniors to freshmen. Nico seemingly snaps out of a daze he was in and blinks back to life. He hands Leo his book bag and marches over to me, a glare on his face.

"What in the gods' names is wrong with you?!" He grabs my arm and pulls me up to my feet with a strength I didn't know he actually had.

Percy just stares.

Nico drags me a little away, the circle of chattering kids keeping us in.

"What were you thinking, idiota?!" Nico scorns.

"He started it...?"

Nico scoffs and glares. He looks unimpressed but it quickly turns to concern. He reaches up and touches my brow. I flinch when it stings. When Nico pulls his hand away he has blood on his fingertips.

"Where else are you hurt?" he asks lowly.

"I honestly have no idea," I admit.

Nico sighs, "fine, I'll check you when we get home."

Then I get an idea.

I want to really hurt Percy and I know exactly what will burn the deepest.

I glance at Percy and he's glaring right at me. Good.

"Can I have a kiss...to make it all better?" I whisper.

Nico rolls his eyes but presses his gentle hand to my cheek, lightly pulling me down. He presses his soft, full, sultry lips against mine in a tender kiss.When our lips meet mine sting a little from the bust in my bottom lip. I ignore the pain and relish in the sweet softness of Nico's lips.

When we pull apart Nico's smiling softly. I love his smile.

Then I send I quick glance at Percy.

He looks close to tears and confused. It's what he deserves.

I twine my fingers with Nico's and together we leave the circle with Leo and Piper on our tails.

"We'll see you guys at the house," Piper says when we reach the parking lot, as she walks towards Leo's truck while me and Nico walk to my car. At some point, Nico had grabbed my books, but my bag was still in my locker, but since I didn't have homework, I was free.

When Nico gets in the car he throws my books in the back, leans back and lets out a long sigh, shutting his eyes.

"Why?" he breaths.

"What?" I look at him.

"Why'd you fight him? Why did you really fight him?"

"He hurt you... he's a monster and he hurt you. I hate him..."

I see a tear stream down Nico's cheek.

"Nico-"

"I'm not worth fighting for!" he chokes out.

I grab his face and press my lips to his. He stiffens in surprise at first then he melts into the kiss. He leans over the seat nearly pushing him into my lap. I grab his leg and pull him the rest of the way into my lap with one of his legs on each side of my waist. I'm seriously starting to think that I have a fetish for this position.

I place my hands on his hips, pulling him impossibly closer. He weaves his fingers in my hair and pulls lightly, which I find extremely arousing.

I deepen the kiss, sucking and nipping at his plump lips. My hands trail under Nico's shirt and up his back. I guide my fingers with a feathery touch up his tender scars. He moans softly and the lovely pleasure noise echoes in my ears. I want more of the sound the second I hear it.

My mind reels, figuring ways to make Nico moan more, loving the noises he makes.With one hand still running up and down his back I trail my other hand down to his ass and give his butt a squeeze. He gasps, his lips parting against mine. I take this opening and delve my tongue into his mouth. That makes him moan and curl his fingers in a way that really turns me on. I feel every part of Nico's mouth possible with my tongue getting me an endless array of sultry noises from him.

But all the best things must come to an end.

When we pull apart we're both breathing heavily. I take my hand out from under Nico's shirt and caress his face.

"Nico, you are so worth fighting for, you're worth everything to me...I love you, I love you more than anything."

Nico blushes bright pink and looks down at my chest. He chews his lips like he's nervous.

"...Promise?"

I smile like always, loving to just say it back.

"Promise."

I don't even know what the mood to this chapter so somebody figure it out and leave me a comment

I loves ya, chickpees
