Work Text:

Apollo was happy, truly happy in a full way he wasn't sure he had ever felt in his life and he knew that all that peace had to do with a certain green-eyed demigod sitting on a couch.

He couldn't remember exactly when he started spending time with Percy but he knew he couldn't regret anything that happened between them, though if he were asked he couldn't pinpoint the moment when his feelings evolved from indifference and a certain degree of friendliness to something much warmer, warm enough to make the ichor that ran through his veins burn.

So when he gave him that smile of his that would make Apollo and many more Gods fall on their knees to worship him as the most sacred thing and asked him for something then he knew he would do anything to keep Percy smiling like that for him. And only for him he thought with a feeling of possessiveness nuzzling into his chest. Though he wasn't the only one willing to do anything for Percy, both Poseidon and the entire sea family would go to war to keep the younger boy safe.

But his possessiveness was satiated enough knowing that Percy didn't accept anyone in a romantic sense which, he thought, was good because he wasn't able to guess what horrifying acts he would do to keep his affection and attention, maybe he should reflect on that and....

"Apollo"

"Apollo"

"Apollo"

"Apollo"repeated Percy smiling softly at him-"What happened? You got lost in thought, and you said you would give me a tour of your studio."

He had promised after Percy had asked him when they were watching the fireworks and he looked so hopeful that he couldn't refuse, it's not like he could refuse him anything but still.

"Come, I wish to show you everything," he took Percy's hand and led him around the studio.

he began showing him his most current works all with themes that reminded him of Percy in one way or another such as: the sea, a hurricane or even rain which he had never been a fan of but she supposed he would stick to the more violent hurricane if it meant taking him by the hand. He had writings, sure, but he still didn't feel confident about sharing them having the possibility that he wouldn't reciprocate his feelings.

And it would be bad that he knew because he was old, very old, old enough to know that even if love was a shifting force he could never fix his innate selfishness maybe iron it out but he could never take away the most primal impulse than to steal Percy and keep him for himself and so that no one could ever take him away from him. But even if he was willing to risk war he wanted Percy to choose him of his own free will without any coercion, to be chosen by that dear little thing with eyes the color of the sea bathed in sunbeams that made him look so divine it made Apollo's fingers itch to capture his beauty on paper.

"Let me paint you"Apollo could barely recognize his own voice tinged with desperation to paint in a way he hadn't felt in a long, long time in his immortal life "I want to paint your face as if you were my Mona Lisa."

Percy smiled knowingly and Apollo finally understood.

He had already been damned.
