Not going to lie this was my favorite one, which might explain why it's so frickin' long campared to the others. I only own the plot and hope you enjoy!

Will woke up to his boyfriend snuggling him, and his own arms wrapped around the smaller boy.

"Good morning, Sunshine," Will smiled, ruffling his face in Nico's hair. Nico made a noise that was incoherent, as his face was up against Will's chest. "You ready to get up, Neeks?"

"No, it's too early," Nico groaned, his Italian accent clear as day. He held Will closer to him, as if he was afraid he was going to fly away.

"C'mon Neeks, it's Valentine's Day. I've got something really special planned and I think you'll like it," Will prompted, kissing his forehead lovingly.

Nico complied, sitting up to face Will, rubbing his eyes as he yawned like a baby kitten.

"Neeks, you are so cute!" Will smiled, practically yanking his boyfriend and placing him in his own lap, then proceeding to fawn over how adorable he was.

"Will!" Nico yelled, crossing his arms, putting a pout on his face, "I am not cute!"

"Yes you are, you are my small and adorable ball of darkness," he said, bopping Nico on the nose. "Now come on, I'm going to make breakfast for you."

Nico and Will hopped out of bed, and began dressing.

"Why?" Nico asked, pulling on one of Will's hoodies that was about three sizes too big for him.

"Because I love you," Will answered simply, placing a kiss on the other boy's cheek.

"You're a dork."

"You still love me."

"Yeah, you're lucky aren't you?"

"Yep, and I thank the gods everyday," Will replied, making Nico's cheeks flush.

Will could just spend his whole day looking at his boyfriend. He was so beautiful, so amazing in every way, shape and form.

"Let's just go," Nico mumbled, his cheeks red, as the couple headed out the room.

~~~~~ Time Skip ~~~~~

"So, chef Solace, what did you plan on making?" Nico asked, as they entered the kitchen.

"I actually learned how to make french toast, but a little help never hurt anybody," Will smiled, as he dragged Nico behind the counter.

"Fine, but only because you'll burn the house down if I let you here alone," Nico said, kissing Will on the cheek.

"Hey! I take offense to that," he replied, laughing as Nico tried to reach the cinnamon that was in one of the cupboards that he couldn't get to.

"Don't the guys who make houses know that there are people under 5'5?" Nico muttered as he attempted to climb onto the counter to reach the seasoning.

"Need a little help there, Death Boy?" Will chuckled, mixing up all the ingredients for the dip to put the bread in.

"No, I just need to have a word with the architect of this house," Nico said angrily.

"I'm pretty sure Annabeth designed this house just for the sole purpose of you not being able to reach the cinnamon," Will laughed, walking over and easily reaching the shelf.

Nico punched him in the arm. "Dam you. I could've gotten it myself," he huffed, crossing his arms.

"Sure you could, Sunshine. Now get off the counter and help me cook," Will said.

~~~~~ Time Skip ~~~~~

"So what was your special plan for today, Solace?" Nico asked, leaning against his boyfriend's chest.

"Well, I was thinking we could go to Venice today. Go to a restaurant, maybe a museum, and ride a canal. I thought it would be fun," Will answered, resting his head on top of his boyfriend's.

"Really? That sounds nice , I haven't been to Italy in so long," Nico answered, drawing out his words.

"And we could shadow travel, but just this once," Will added, squeezing Nico's hand.

"Alright, let's go."

~~~~~ Time Skip ~~~~~

Getting to Venice, there were no problems. Shadow traveling was easy for Nico, since he regained his strength, he could travel longer distances with more people.

As Will had said, they first went to a restaurant, where Nico had gotten chicken alfredo, and Will had chosen some classic spaghetti.

"That was probably the best meal I've ever had," Will said, as they walked towards a local museum they'd found.

"That was so good, I haven't had something like that in a while. But, I guess it's good to cut McDonald's from your diet from time to time," Nico smiled, and all Will could think about was how beautiful he looked in the light of the sun.

It had taken every ounce of Will's courage to ask for Hades' blessing. Luckily, he didn't die and Hades actually gave him permission, you know, after thoroughly threatening him. He then had to go through that process all over again with Hazel, Reyna and Jason.

"What do you think this museum's about?" Will asked as they reached the entrance of the building.

There was a sign above the door that was written in Italian. "I don't know. I can speak Italian, but I still can't read it with dyslexia."

Will nodded and opened the double doors for his boyfriend, "After you, m'lady."

Nico jabbed him in the gut, but walked through, smiling playfully. It made Will's heart soar knowing he was one of the few people who could put a grin on the Ghost King's face.

"Let's go find a English-speaking tour guide, so I can actually understand what he's saying," Will laughed, and they went off.

~~~~~ Time Skip ~~~~~

The museum was nice, just some stuff about Venice and it's people. At one point, they went over the myth of the di Angelo family, and how the children disappeared after a lightning struck their house.

Nico wasn't necessarily sad, he had come to terms with what happened, but found it quite interesting on how mortals viewed things.

As soon as they walked out of the museum, Will began apologizing. "Neeks, I'm so sorry! I didn't know they'd talk about that! I should've-" he was cut off his rambling by Nico pecking him softly on the lips.

"Will, it's fine. I'm okay. It was interesting and this day has been amazing. Thank you," Nico, said, wrapping his arms around the taller boy's neck.

"Okay, and you're sure you're good?" Will asked, putting his forehead against his boyfriend's.

"Absolutely, now, is there anything else you had planned?" Nico asked, as they continued walking down busy streets, hand in hand.

"Actually yes, now c'mon," Will smiled as he dragged Nico through the winding streets of Venice, cutting through alleys and bridges, and finally, they ended up on the top of a hill with a perfect view of the sunset.

"Oh, Will, it's beautiful," Nico said, admiring the sun as it settled into the horizon. He then turned back to the taller boy. "Thank you, this day has been amazing."

Will flushed and brought Nico to the very tip of the hill, flowers bloomed and the grass was bright green, despite it being February. Will grabbed both of Nico's hands, holding them tight, placing a soft kiss on both.

"Nico di Angelo, Death Boy, Neeks, Sunshine," Nico felt his face turn red at all of the nicknames. "You are my angel, my saving grace, my light. You shine a spot in my heart that nothing and no one can ever replace. You are my patient, my best friend, and my love. I want to wake up every morning, and see your beautiful face. I want to see your laugh, gods, your beautiful laugh, I want to hear it every second I get the chance. I want you to feel like everything, because you're my everything."

Will was now down on one knee, and Nico felt his heart fill with pure love. He wanted this exact moment to last forever.

"You deserve everything in life. You are a hero, you've suffered, but still kept all your promises. You've been hurt, but you still always find love in your heart, and I can see it clear as day. You're smart, brave, and honest. You are kind, funny and loving. You are the light in my life and I hope with every part of me that I'm the light in yours. You make me better, and you make me brave. I want to stand by your side, whenever you're hurt I'll be there to heal you. Whenever you cry, I'll be there to comfort you. I'm here for you Nico di Angelo and never forget that," Will said, his eyes almost as red and puffy as Nico's had become. "So, after eight years of knowing an angel, I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Nico di Angelo, son of Hades, Ghost King, will you marry me?"

He opened a box to show a glistening silver ring that intertwined with gold. It had five small diamonds decorated on the top, and reflected the sun in just the right light.

Nico was bawling, "Yes, I will marry you, you dork!" He sniffed, slipping the ring onto his finger.

Will stood up and kissed his new fiance', it was deep and Will smelled like summer. Both had tears streaming down their faces as the sky fell into night behind them.
