Bad Boy {Solangelo}

Dickheads Everywhere

In the next lecture, Will and Nico had to part ways. Because Nico had Math and Will had Literature.

Nico acted kind of upset when he and Will had to go in different classes; as if he was nervous. Will did not pretty much understand what was wrong, but he was successful in figuring out Nico didn't like Math. Nico was mumbling to himself how he hated Math and how he wanted to rip the subject apart. He was still unsure why he chose that subject in the first place.

Will had asked him, "Sunshine, is everything okay?" Nico had merely nodded without even making eye contact. Something was up with him. Will was uncertain what was it, but it bugged him.

He hadn't told Nico of the nightmare he had this morning. Maybe because he was himself so scared, he didn't want Nico worrying? He was so dismayed by seeing Nico writhing and bleeding on the floor, and it all seemed so real, he couldn't take it out of his brain.

So instead of concerning about the dream, he thought of thinking about Nico. But again and again, those black hair and piercing green eyes kept looking at him. Who is he?! Perseus? Is that even a real name?! Will kept thinking.

Right then, he was in his class, while the professor, Mr. Riordan explained something about one of literary ghostly classics- The Divine Comedy.

However, Will was busy picturing Nico in his hands, cuddling under a thick, warm blanket. In his imagination, they were spooning and snuggling all the day.

Suddenly, something hit him on the head. "Oh" he shouted as he looked what it was. He had low-key zoned out thinking about Nico... By the way, the thing that hit him was a chalk thrown by Mr. Riordan.

"Mr. Solace? What is going on there? We are doing a Dante. So stop day-dreaming about the Peter Johnson series" Mr. R said, then added a small chuckle and got back to explaining The Divine Comedy.

Here, in the other class, Nico was hearing the new boy introduce himself. Black hair. Green eyes. An orange t-shirt under a jacket. A pen in the pocket. A chain with four carved beads. Male gender.

"Hey. I'm Percy. Percy Jackson. I am- wait, you don't need to know me. I'm gonna be here just for a day anyway" he said.

Everyone laughed. Mr. R cleared his throat and motioned for Percy to take a seat.

And so, Percy looked around. Every seat was practically occupied... except the one next to Nico. When his gaze fell Nico, they shared eye contact for a little moment. That moment, Nico knew Percy was going to play a pretty mind-blowing job in his life. The little mischief in his eyes made Nico uneasy. Somehow, Nico instantly knew to keep his distance from this newbie.

To his dismay, Percy flashed him a little smile and walked in his direction. 

Nico cursed internally. Fuck this shit. This green-eyed monster is an asshole, I can already tell.

"Hey" Percy said as he smiled once again as he put his books on the table.

"Fuck you" Nico muttered, high enough for Percy to hear.

I was the same once, Percy thought as he saw the pale boy. He was trying his level-best to leave a good impression. Because if he did, then only he will be able to take this new demigod to Camp Half-Blood. Percy silently sat there and watched Mr. Riordan explain stuff.

Nico was already kind of suspicious. What he saw in those green eyes was far, far more then mischief. There was bravery, loyalty, friendliness, sassiness... and pain.

This Percy-boy didn't say anything anymore, which Nico was glad about, and continued with the lecture.

Soon, half the day was over and they had their recess.

Nico sat all alone at the table. Thinking about Will.

To his surprise, there he was. Flashing a teethy smile to Nico and then blowing a kiss, with his lunch in his hands. "Can I sit with you?" he asked.

Nico shyly smiled and nodded his head. Will sat on the opposite side of the table and kissing Nico on the cheek. They got a few weird glares and confused looks from some people, but that was it.

Slowly, the smile on Will's face faded as Nico looked into his bright blue eyes.

Will said, "Nico, baby, I gotta tell you something"

BABY?! HE CALLED ME FUCKING 'BABY'?! OH MAH GAWD. IS HE SO DAMN SERIOUS? I DON'T LIKE WHERE THIS IS GOING. Nico thought and freaked out.

Just as Will opened his mouth, there was a tap on the shoulder.

Suddenly, Will's face showed anger, then scariness, the shock and finally confusion.

"Perseus" Will whispered. Nico turned around to see who it was.

PERCY FUCKING JACKSON, Oh, how cool! Nico thought and internally groaned.

Wait, Will knows him? And as far as I remember, his name was 'Percy', not 'Perseus', Nico thought in confusion.

Now, until Will and Percy told him what was going on, it was a mystery for Nico.
