I'm updating so much wow.

Will had his arms wrapped around Nico, his cheek resting on his head. He'd kicked their clothes under the bed and pulled the blankets around them tightly. Nico's bare chest was pressed to his and his face was buried in his neck.

Nico had slung his leg over Will's waist, so he was practically straddling him... sideways. Nico's eyes fluttered open, scanning Will's face silently.

"Hey, Sunshine," Will whispered and pushed his hair out of his face.

"We had sex."

"Yes we did," Will chuckled, sliding his hands down to Nico's butt.

The dark-haired boy squealed. "Will!"

"Hmm?" He asked, running his finger over his hole with a smirk.

"That's weird, Will."

"I know."

Nico sighed and snuggled closer again. Will moved his hand back to Nico's spine, running his fingers across his skin.

"How do you feel?" Will asked.

"I dunno. I need a shower, though."

Will laughed, "We both do."

Nico ran his fingers up Will's stomach, curling his toes. "You have really pretty eyes."

Will blinked, "Thank you," he mumbled. Nico giggled and reached up to hold his long blonde hair out of his eyes. He moved his hand down to Will's cheek, staring at him silently.

Will swallowed and eyed him cautiously. He lowered his lips down to Nico's softly. The smaller boy shifted closer, caressing his cheek.

Their kiss was disrupted when the door opened and Larissa dropped her glass cup.

Will jumped, pulling away from Nico suddenly. Said boy's eyes were wide, his face paler than usual. Larissa stared at them blankly.

"What did you two do?"

Nico's face became bright red, his ears equally as flushed. Will stared at her, "What?"

"You're both shirtless. You were kissing. Please, tell me you didn't have sex on a hospital bed." She pleaded.

Nico flopped back down, burying his face in the pillow.

"Anyways," Larissa blushed. "Nico, are you willing to do surgery?"

"Surgery?" Will butted in.

Larissa held her hand up so Nico wouldn't respond. "Physically, the disease is removable. It requires a risky surgery. If we put him in, he may not come out. But- if we put him in, he may come out cured."

"Nope." Will said bluntly.

"You can't decide that for me!" Nico hissed.

Will went silent, his lips pursed. Nico sighed sat back up. "What's the risk, exactly?"

Larissa bit her lip, "It's fifty-fifty."

"Have you ever done this before?"

"No. Thats why we aren't sure about survival."

Will pulled his knees up to his chest, burying his face in the blankets covering them. Nico rested a hand on his back, playing with the hair at the nape of his neck. "Are you sure that if I survive I'll even be cured?"

Larissa swallowed, "Not exactly."

Nico glanced at Will, "I think I'm going to have to pass up on that."

Will sighed in relief, feeling Nico pulling him closer. Larissa pursed her lips, "All right, let me know if you change your mind. Remember your iron pills," she added.

"Iron pills?" Will inquired after she'd left.

Nico shrugged, "Everyone here should have them, judging that they aren't ever outside getting iron."

Will pecked his nose, "I love you."

"Too much," Nico chuckled, laying Will's head on his lap.

"Maybe," Will smiled.

Nico sighed and leaned back against the wall, running his hands through Will's hair.

Will grunted, sliding Nico's pants back on his legs. "How do you even wear such small pants?"

"They're not that small," Nico objected.

"They're like, what, tiny?"

Nico scowled and buttoned them. "They're actually not as small as the pants I used to wear. These ones don't leave marks."

Will laughed and tossed him his shirt, being himself, already dressed before Nico even got up. "Why'd they ask if you wanted the surgery? Like, you specifically?"

"You." Nico replied shortly.

"Me?"

"Yes, because they want me saved more than anyone else in this hospital. I'm the top patient because of you," he paused. "I don't really like the attention, to be frank."

Will bit his lip, "How do people already know?"

"They don't. They saw you yesterday- crying your eyes out?" Nico said. "Sound familiar?"

"Shut up," Will laughed. "I was just told you were dying and then you started foaming at the mouth."

"So romantic," Nico teased, pulling Will in for a quick kiss.

Will smiled, "We should see if I can steal you for- shit!"

"What?" Nico asked.

"My shift started again today. I gotta go," he kissed him quickly. "I'll be back in a few hours?" He said apologetically.

"Okay," Nico frowned, lowering his hands into his lap.

"I'm sorry," Will apologized, kissing him on the forehead.

"It's fine. Go do your job," Nico sighed. "I'll see you later."

Will hesitated before getting up and leaving the room, all the way shooting Nico apologetic looks. Once he was gone Nico laid back against the bed, staring up at the ceiling with disappointment.
