"You, you don't want to?" He asked, paling rapidly, his breath starting to come in short shallow gasps starting to have a panic attack, wrapping his hands around his stomach and rolling up into a ball. He just shut down, gods he had know that something was going to go wrong he just knew it. But he wouldn't give up his children, but he wasn't sure that he could be a father without him. "You don't want them? You don't want to have babies with me?" He asks softly, before starting to sob he had known it was too good to be true.

Percy sighed, he should have known that would backfire on him. "what? No you got that wrong Nico. There is nothing I want more then this. I just worried that might not want this. I don't want you to think you have to", he replied, hoping he didn't shot himself in the foot again. Percy carefully shifted his free hand to wipe away Nico's tears and kissed him softly before continuing softly to him. "I love you Nico. i just didn't want to lose you because you I have forced you into anything" he replied truthfully. "I wouldn't know what to do with out you."

"Really?" He asked searching his face for any indication that he was lying finding none he he threw himself into Percy's arms, kissing him deeply. "I want to have babies with you." He tells him with a happy grin, stroking his cheek, feeling elated, they were going to have babies, he couldn't have asked for anything better. "Three little boys, babies." He tells him in a wonder struck tone. He was still scared but to know that Percy want to be fathers with him. "What are they going to call us we can't both be Daddy, and no way in Hades am I going to be called mummy."

"Have i ever lied-", Percy stopped himself mid sentence. He knew he had lied to Nico before, he had promised to keep Bianca and had failed him on that part. Percy instead responded to the kiss with the passion he felt. He surprisingly found it easy to dismiss the thoughts of Bianca as he thought of the fact he was going to be a father, "Three little terrors more like", he replied jokingly. "Especially if they take after us", Percy replied with a wink to Nico. "One of us could always be called papa", Percy replied. Like hell he was going to be called mummy either, the other gods would crack up at that one.

Nico pushed him gently. "Don't call my little Angel's terrors, and I was an angel thank you very much." He tells him, with a cheeky grin, thinking of all the trouble he got up too as a child and then later on as a teen. But Percy had caused more problems then he ever had. "Hmm Papa, I like it." He tells him with a happy smile before kissing him again, he wondered what they would look like, who they would take after in personality, what they would be the gods of and other little things like that, would they be tall short, muscular or skinny.

Percy laughed, thinking about the quiet little boy with his monster cards that Percy had first known Nico to be. "You might have been a angel once, but all I seem to remember is a child that kept running of and getting himself into trouble in the process", Percy replied with a teasing smirk. "If our kids take after us they will be little Terrors. But i will not let anyone else call them that. They are our little terrors", Percy replied, kissing Nico back, moving a hand to rest on his husbands stomach. "I suppose this means I wont be allowed coffee for a while though", he replied with a smirk.

"You can have coffee, just far, far away from me and make sure none of that smell gets back here." He tells him with a smile feeling slightly bad about stopping Percy having his coffee that he was addicted to, Nico also loved the occasional cup of coffee but he wasn't going to go near the stuff till after it stopped making him feel like throwing up his stomach. "I'm hungry." He says after a thought, his stomach started to growl loudly. "Mm, Pancakes, with nutella and strawberries, and some fruit salad and orange juice to wash it all down, I'm not looking forward to the cravings everyone makes it sound so gross."

Percy chuckled, "In other words, no coffee", he replied. He wouldn't want to leave Nico to much in case something happened. Percy chuckled as Nico's stomach growled as if to make his point. "The cravings I can deal with, its the mood swings I am worried about", he playfully joked. He had heard a lot about them and seen how his step mum reacted to them and was not looking forward to having to be close to them. He wondered how many times he would find himself sleeping on the couch of the coming months. Percy stood and helped Nico up, "Lets go and start those pancakes. I can always make them blue too", he replied as he thought of what his mother used to do to make him feel happier.

"You'll live." He tells him with a cheeky grin, hoping that he didn't turn into a monster like Amphy had when she was pregnant. "You can make the pancakes, and I'll make the salad and fresh orange juice." He said with a happy grin, feeling better now he knew what was wrong with him and that it was a good thing not a bad thing like he had been dreading about the whole time. Nico hoped that he would be able to keep the food down because it always put him off the meal for at least a month maybe more. He took Percy's hand and pulled him towards the kitchen, before letting him go after a short kiss and grabbing things they needed for the things he wanted to make.

"If you become like Amphy, I may just pack up and leave you to it", he replied. He was of course joking and he hoped Nico would know that. Percy started grabbing out what he would need to make the pancakes, grabbing some chocolate to chuck into them as well as some blue food colouring. It had always been a thing that he had his mother used to do to celebrate something. Percy mixed up the batter for the pancakes and started cooking them. Chuckling to himself when some of them came out looking like the cookie monster or at least he could make them look like him.

Nico scowled and threw a grape at Percy knowing his was joking but it still made him made, it wouldn't be his fault if he was like Amphy. "Do that and you will never see me or the kids again." He tells him in a joking tone, but he meant it if Percy ever left him he didn't know if he could ever see him again. Nico started cutting all the fruit that he would need for his fruit salad, taking a few pieces here and there. Giggling in a very unmanly way when he saw the pancakes that Percy had made, he was glad that Percy would eat things that were't blue after much persuading on his side.

Percy chuckled and caught the grape and chucked it in his mouth. "You know I would never do it Nico. Even dad was smart enough not to do that and he wasn't even fully himself", Percy replied, putting another pancake on. While he waited for the first side to cook Percy moved to stand behind Nico, wrapping his arms around Nico's waist and placing a soft kiss on his neck. "I won't leave you through any of this. You can ask me to but you wake you will see me sleeping on the couch. You can bit my head off as much as you want, I will still be here. You are stuck with me now Nico", he continued seriously, before stealing a strawberry and going back to his pancakes.

"I love you so much." He tells him with a small love filled smile, he didn't usually say the words or smile like that but he knew that Percy knew that. He vowed to himself that he would say and show it more often to Percy, so he never ended up doubting that they belonged together. "Finished." He says adding the last piece of fruit before giving it a gentle stir. He started on the orange juice next he managed to cut one of the oranges before the smell made him feel sick and he ran for the bathroom and got there just in time to empty some bile into the loo, before the nausea passed, he growled annoyed he hated the morning sickness. "Can you get rid of the orange?" He asks, rinsing his mouth out not game to leave the room till the orange was gone.

Percy grinned widely, knowing just how rare it was for Nico to admit his love even to him. He as too wrapped up in the thought that he almost burnt the pancakes he was cooking and only just caught them in time. He wanted to follow after Nico when he left but he instead moved to get rid of the offending oranges even before he was asked. "You alright Nico?", he called, whipping away the scent of orange and using his powers to ensure everything was clean of it. "It's gone, my love", he continued in response to him. He moved back to the pancakes and removed them before putting the last of the batter in the pan and heading to check on Nico. The pancakes could survive on there own for now, he would not let Nico face any of this alone. They had both been through to much already in there short lives and he wanted to make sure Nico knew he would be at his side for every moment of the rest of their long lives. He summoned a glass of water and knelt beside him, rubbing his back softly as he held the water out to him.

Nico quickly rinsed his mouth of glad to be rid of the taste of the vomit. He slowly stood feeling hungry for the first time in a while. "Food." He said with a cheeky grin heading for the kitchen his hand clasped with Percy's pulling him back towards the kitchen. He let his hand go once they were in the kitchen, heading for the pantry he pulled out a bottle of nutella and one of Vegemite. He walked back to the table after grabbing the milk from the fridge. He poured some for him and Percy, if Percy didn't want it Nico would drink it. Nico grabbed one of the pancakes that had been cooked and placed it on his plate, slathering nutella and vegemite over it he cut it with his fork and dunked it in milk before putting it into his mouth and sighing with bliss as he did so. He repeated the process till the pancake was all gone he then started on the next one making a happy moan with each piece he put in his mouth he didn't bother offering some to Percy knowing that he wouldn't like it cause it was a strange combination, he added some fruit to the next pancake and hummed happily as he ate it all up.
