    Summary

    "It’s new, yes, and terrifying, but I feel a changed man, steady and bright. Oh, how your magic thrills me.” 

    Todd folded the paper up once again and looked up, eyes searching. They found Neil’s, locking, asking some sort of question, and Neil almost forgot how to breathe. His heart was pounding rapidly, almost painfully so. Incredible. That was incredible.

    Todd’s eyes finally left his as the other boys gathered around him, cheering. The light of the fire danced across his face. 

    “Todd Anderson, everybody!” Charlie cheered. “What a man! A czar of romance, if I do say so myself.” 

    “Yeah, Todd, tell the people who that lovely sonnet was about!” Meeks clapped him on the back. 

    “Not a sonnet, idiot,” Knox cut in. “All the same, who’s the lucky girl, Todd?” 

    Oh.

    If Neil hadn’t been able to breathe before, he sure couldn’t now. He’d been so lost in the language. He hadn’t even considered the clear implications.

    “A summer love?” Knox proposed eagerly. 

    “Something like that," Todd said quickly, and Neil's stomach dropped.

    -

    Todd reads one of his own poems aloud for the first time at a meeting. Neil, convinced it's for a girl, spirals.

    Summary

    gesture /ˈjesCHər,ˈjeSHCHər/ (n.) - “an action performed to convey one's feelings or intentions.”

    The first time he offers his arm Will just stares at him.

    The blond looks at his arm, elbow stretched out, back to Nico, and then back to his arm. Settling on eye contact, Will absent-mindedly rubs at his cheek. “What are you doing, Death Boy?”

    Rolling his eyes, Nico deadpans, “Offering my arm to you?”

    Another pause. “I mean,” Will coughs. “I see that, I more meant why are you doing that?”

    Nico blinks a couple of times, scrunching his nose in confusion. Slowly, he says, “Because…it’s proper?” When Will doesn’t react outside of pursuing his lips in amusement, his cheeks redden. “Is it no longer proper?”

    aka 5 small (and slightly outdated) gestures performed by Nico and the 1 large one performed by Will in return.
