    Summary

    Nico exhaled. It seemed he was in the clear. Surely they would just leave – he prayed they would.

    To Nico’s dismay, the person spoke. “Hey, are you okay?” The voice was warm and sunny, and Nico could catch the slightest twinge of Southern. “Are you hurt?”

    Nico squinted his eyes shut, shaking his head like the person could see. He choked on a sob. “No.”

    The guy drummed his fingers against the sink. “Can I help you in any way?”

    Summary

    “So, um. So.” Lacy glances at him, apprehensive. “Will was making like, a housecall, right? Drew had said she had ‘taken a fever,’ and wouldn’t get out of her bunk.”

    “Still not hearing the part that leads to you having to come get me, Lace,” Nico presses.

    “Right, yes,” Lacy continues. “So he backed into one of our vanities, right. And it’s the Aphrodite cabin, so there are love potions and stuff lying around. And um. With them, you’re only supposed to use like, a drop or two? Because they make people confess true feelings, right? But uh, A vial fell from the top of the vanity when he backed into it, and it cracked and he uh, got hit in the head. With a full bottle of a love potion thing.”

    Summary

    Nico di Angelo hasn’t set foot in his hometown in four years—not since he packed his bags, buried his feelings, and moved across an ocean to study in Italy. It was supposed to be a fresh start. A chance to connect with his roots, with the mother he never got to know. A quieter life, far away from everything he wasn’t ready to face—including his feelings for his childhood best friend Will Solace.

    But now he’s home for the holidays.

    And Will’s still golden. Still exasperatingly kind. Still the only person who’s ever truly seen him. And Nico? He’s still terrible at saying how he feels.

    It’s Christmas. There’s mistletoe. There are meddling friends and siblings. And maybe—just maybe—there’s still time to say what they should’ve said years ago.
