#solangelo drabble

( writing a drabble for the climb by miley cyrus after whooping 165k out of nowhere for a fic titled after it feels so contradictory and silly )

16 -> "the climb" , miley cyrus ! -> solangelo ft. will dealing with rsd over mortal high-school

Solangelo drabble inspired by @didnt-want-to-be-a-halfblood 's post (context is definitely required)

nico had to admit, the feeling of will’s head on his chest was definitely something he wanted to get used to. his soft blonde hair falling through his fingers, quiet breaths leaving tingles down his arms. days in the hades’ cabin were the softest. 

“hey,” will said, lifting his head a bit to look at nico’s face.

“hey,” nico replied, a smile falling onto his face. 

“you’re cute.” nico smiled more.

“so i’ve heard.”

“like, really cute.” nico’s face flushed and he turned away.

“hey, look at me. i wanna see your cute face,” will protested, causing nico to turn his head back to his boyfriend.

“you’re an idiot, you know that, right.”

“yeah. but you’re still cute.” nico rolled his eyes right as will brought his hand and lightly tapped nico on the nose, emitting a soft “boop.”

“did- did you just boop me?” nico asked. will laughed, and nico felt in his core. 

“yep!” nico let out a sigh, before pulling will forward to give him a kiss. 

“i love you,” will said, after pulling away.

For @solangeloweek AUctober! The plan is to do short drabbles like this, hopefully possibly maybe every day :)

“Oh, Neeks! Look at this! We have to stop in here.”

Will took a deep breath as he crossed the threshold into another world, one filled with endless adventure and wonder: a bookstore. It smelled of old pages and wood. Dust caught in the rays of light streaming in through the windows, making the place look like it was sprinkled in glitter.

He turned back to see his boyfriend gazing around in awe. Not that he had never been in a bookstore before, but he was still entranced every time he entered one. Which was precisely why Will thought bookstore hopping was a perfect idea for a date.

After a moment, Will reached out and took Nico’s hand, tugging him forward into the little shop. This was the third store they had wandered into over the past two hours. Will had marked out all the bookstores in town, including little libraries they might pass in the suburbs near their houses. They both loved books, but even Nico had to agree that Fall weather just made small bookstores better somehow.

The boys perused the shelves, hands linked between them as they looked at opposite sides of the aisle. Every once in a while, they would pull a book off the shelf actually intending to buy it, but for the most part, they were just there for the atmosphere and quiet company. Sometimes, they would compete to see who could find the perfect book for the other person the fastest. Usually it ended with them both loving the picks and taking extra time to read the first several pages.

“Hey, Will. Check this out.” Nico handed him a decently-sized paperback book with a yellow border around the edges of the front cover. The title read, “Zeus Grants Stupid Wishes: A No-Bullshit Guide to World Mythology.” Will grinned immediately. They were both total mythology nerds, to the point where they felt like they could write their own complete Greek Mythology book. But it almost looked like someone beat them to it.

“This looks hilarious, I need it.” It was only his second book today, so he counted that as a win.

“Obviously.” Nico reached over and plucked the book out of the blonde’s hands. “I’ll buy it for you.”

Will couldn’t help but grin. “Aww, Neeks! You’re so sweet.”

Nico gave him a small smile in return. He turned to purchase the book at the front of the store, then hesitated a moment. Suddenly, he spun back towards Will and leaned up to peck him on the lips. It was so quick that Will didn’t even have time to react before it was over. He blinked at his boyfriend, who was now shyly tucking a lock of hair behind his ear with a pink blush spreading across his cheeks.

“I’m having a really good time, with you.” It was so quiet that Will nearly missed it. The genuine admission, once it registered in Will’s brain, had him matching Nico’s blush with a bright smile slowly spreading across his face.

8. “I’ve always wanted to walk up to a stranger, hand him a briefcase, and whisper, ‘You know what to do.’”

“Well….now you’ve done it.”

Will’d been sitting outside his dad’s office, patiently waiting for him to leave his meeting. His foot was tapping.

He knew it was annoying, but he just couldn’t help it. He wondered if anyone noticed. As he glanced around the room, his eyes fell upon a guy.

Well, not just any guy. This guy was hot.

Or handsome, or whatever. Dark hair surrounded him like a halo. He was sat on his phone in the lobby. Whoever he was waiting for must have been important, as he was wearing a dress shirt. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows.

In spite of himself, a grin fell across Will’s face.

Go talk to him, a voice in his head said.

Steeling his shoulders, he stood up. The briefcase he was supposed to give his father still sat in his hand.

The man looked up as Will’s footsteps clicked on the marble floors. He swore he could have fainted. This guy’s eyes were such a deep brown it made Will want to melt.

Coming to a stop, a smirk fell across his face as the stranger raked his eyes up and down Will’s body. Both of their cheeks began to glow red as they caught each other looking.

Neither knew what to say. An idea struck in Will’s mind, but he brushed it off quickly. It was a dumb idea, one that only worked in movies. A minute or two dragged on in silence. The man looked at Will one more time before returning to his screen.

Oh, who cares if it’s stupid? It’ll be fun!

“You know what to do,” he said as he held out his father’s briefcase. The look of confusion on the man’s face made him regret ever leaving his safe haven of coffee cups and plastic chairs.

“Uh,” the man stammered, but took the briefcase nonetheless. He looked up at Will again, eyebrows furrowed.

“Sorry,” Will said. “That was stupid. I’ve just always wanted to walk up to a stranger, hand him a briefcase, and whisper, ‘You know what to do.’”

“Well….now you’ve done it.”

Will nodded and sat on the coffee table in front of the guy. He tried to overcome the impending sense of embarrassment as he wiped his palms on the pants.

“Will, come on!” He heard his dad say from behind him. Will whipped around, his face turning red again. His father was leaned against the wall, smirk on his face. “I’ll be in my office whenever you’re done here,” he winked and walked off.

Turning back to the stranger, he reached for the briefcase. From the office adjacent to them, a nasally voice called out “Nico?”

The guy stood up and began to put his phone in his back pocket. He came to a halt when he caught another look at Will and held out the phone for him.

“You know what to do,” he said, blushing heavily. Will was sure he’d never seen something so perfect in his life. He grabbed the phone and quickly typed in his information as Nico straightened his own tie.

When the Doctor issick

“What the-” Will coughs and then groans. His throat iskilling him and his head is pounding. It takes an alarming amount of energy tofocus on the ridiculous sight in front of him.

Nico was carrying five thick blankets and there was athermometer tucked behind his ear. Behind him, was his skeleton butler, holdinga tray with a bowl and canned soup. The son of Hades looks flustered and hisface seemed to be set in a permanent scowl.

“Nico…” Will says hoarsely, “How did I get here?” Here, being in the Hades’ cabin, on Nico’s bed. (If he wasn’t so sick, he’d be blushing.) It was blessedly cool and dark but the blond couldn’t helpbut wonder how he got here when he was pretty sure he conked out at theinfirmary.

The entire Apollo cabin had all been knocked out by someweird virus specifically targeting Apollo’s children. Apparently it was a cursefrom one of their dad’s old nemesis and the infirmary was filled with Apollo’schildren while the rest were resting back in the cabin. The entire camp was ina panic, because even though they all knew a little about first aid, severeinjuries were another matter entirely when there was no child of Apollo around to help.

“I got you away with the help of my undead army,” Nico huffsas he drops the blankets on one of the chairs.

“You kidnapped me?”

Nico flushes deeply, “No one was taking proper care of youbecause there were too many of you sick. So I came to get you myself. I askedAnnabeth and she said it was all right.”

Will smiles helplessly, reaching out to place a tremblinghand over Nico’s, “Thanks.”

Nico squeezes Will’s hand before crossing his arms, “Well,someone’s gotta take care of you. Now, stop talking and go to sleep. I’ll wakeyou up when the soup’s ready.” He turns and clicks his fingers together. Hisskeleton butler walks further into the Hades’ cabin to help prepare the soup.

Will nods and closes his eyes. He feels a soft pressure onhis head and he looks up just in time to see Nico pull back from the foreheadkiss. The blond stares at the other in surprise.

Nico tries to tamp down his blush as he turns away. “Getbetter soon, idiot.”

Will could feel his heart racing as he smiles brightly, “Doctor’sorders?”

The son of Hades shoots him a small smile, “Yeah, now go tosleep.” He says softly as he piles a blanket on top of Will. He leaves to gohelp with the soup.

The son of Apollo snuggles in, feeling warm, content, andcared for.

“Crap, I forgot the spoon.” Nico whispers frantically andthen there was a loud crash.

Will nuzzles against Nico’s pillow and laughs to himself.
